So, Canada Post may have lost my package to Missiassauga

[MC2015]

Reading those experiences above (related to Canada Post's services) helped me a lot, so I'd like to share my experience with you too in order to help the next ones that are going to pass through the same situation.

I sent my packake to Mississauga office last monday (January 26, 2015) , by Xpresspost, and it was supposed to be delivered by thursday ( January 29, 2015) . On January 29, 2015, the status was " out for delivery" and it remained " out for delivery" until today February 4, 2015. According to the tracking system, it was delivered on January 29, 2015 and I don't know why it was updated just today.

On monday ( after 4 days my package was " out for delivery" ) I called them a lot and each time I had a different excuse. So, I decided to ask to talk to the supervisor who guaranteed me (after calling Mississauga's office) that my package was delivered, but not scanned. I insisted that I needed a delivery certificate and she sent it to me (although she hesitated a lot).

It is so stressing to prepare those documents (I had to get 9 police certificates, I paid a fortune to translate all of them and , as requested, I had to send the originals) , we pay an expensive service to have peace of mind that it's going to be delivered and peace of mind is everything we don't have with Canada Post.

I used Canada Post 3 times and, in all 3 times, I had problems with them. I won't anymore. Now I learned. My advice is: if you haven't sent your package, don't use Canada Post. If you have already sent, probably, it will be delivered but your confirmation will be sent just after 5-7 days.

Good luck for us !

had the same experience, sent on the 27th of jan suppose to deliver on the 29th too...I checked canadapost yesterday and still says "out for delivery" and I was so upset about it! planning to go to Canada post in my area today where I sent it to asked about my documents, checked the tracking number for the last time on the website before we head out and voila it says delivered but no signature/name as who received it,and the expresspost we use is signature required! oh well..anyways no more Canada post for further correspondence

I used expresspost - same kind of situation. Out for delivery for an entire day until it was delivered a day after the promised date. I was able to fill out a form on their website and they evenutally sent me a cheque for the shipping cost.

Same here - except mine was 3 days late. Worried the crapoutta us. The shipping cost returned didn't feel like any consolation. Canada Post is truly the most unreliable delivery system I've experienced. Completely untrustworthy after 3 major fails with me.

You are all making me nervous!! I sent out my application this morning (yay!) via Xpresspost. However, I live in Mississauga, so if they manage to screw it up delivering to the same city, I will be quite baffled, lol.

Hah! Yeah - surely they can't fudge that!

ChellyCat, don't worry ! It is very likely they will delivered it, but , (unless you are very lucky), you will have the delivery confirmation just 5-7 days later. I hope you won't have this delay ( that tortures us) !

Good luck !

Nice! I remember the feeling - the successful delivery ranks up there with birthing babies

I've been waiting on a parcel I ordered like a month ago. Tracked the package and it said it was in Mississauga. I'm in London. Tracked it a few days later and it says it's in Montreal? Why is it going in the opposite direction? Now there have been no updates in 3 days. Still says it' in Montreal.

This happened to our application. No proof of delivery. It turned out that the package WAS delivered but was not signed for therefore was never updated on the postal tracking. It was a very frustrating month not knowing this until we got our AOR1. Still got a refund from Canada post though.
