Btw, sucks can't pay Citi with these anymore...

Just signed up for one. Last delivery was on July 17th tracking number for that was generated on July 14th and NO tracking numbers generated after that. Coming from:

Shipped From:
ARROWEYE SOLUTIONS / ENDICIA
HENDERSON , NV

That's pretty ridiculous.

Any thoughts on when the creation date of a gift card (in transactions in wallet) is, relative to order date? The last orders I got were created 7/11. I think those are probably from 7/8 orders and not 7/10 orders. In which case I haven't gotten any orders from the last 10 days.
I have since started adding the order date in the card message so I can better track.

I go to WM twice daily, once for 2x999.30 MO in the morning, and once in the evening after the shift change (it is on my to and from work). If I get to 4x of the smaller amounts, I will just have two smaller MOs for the day. So it really isn't that big of a deal. Just every now and then have a smaller MO.

Plus it gives me that extra little bit of profit per day, which adds up since I do 10k every day.

10k is pretty solid number. walmart doesn't give you any grief when you get MO's there with gift cards? i never tried simply because many people report negative feedback.

my wal mart doesn't.

as always with MS, its very YMMV.

BUT I have a good rapport with all the cashiers (and the managers) of my local wal mart so I have a good thing going.

I also get my wife to go and MS there as well. I do a combo of billpay and MO purchases.

Aw, I've got orders from July 12 that are also no-shows. I went here to see what was going on. I guess now I know. I registered for myusps and it shows nothing. I'd appreciate it if others could post whatever they learn about this problem. I'll post updates, too. Thanks.

I ordered mine on 7/12. Got the confirmation email on 7/13. I signed up for the USPS notifications and got a text around 12am saying a package from Henderson, NV has been shipped.

For me it was 8 days from the confirmation email to shipping date. Hopefully they show up in 2 days.

Some orders placed on 7/11 were affected. All orders placed between 7/12 and 7/15 were affected. Some orders placed on 7/16 were affected.

This is straight from the horses mouth.

I have tracking numbers from myUSPS for 7 of my 11 orders, and the two orders I placed on the 12th don't show up on myUSPS, they aren't accounted for in the email I received back as the "resolution" from them, and their website says they were supposed to be delivered yesterday (they weren't, and the mail has already come today and they weren't there either).

Approximately 26,000 cards were affected is what I am being told. CSR is super nice, she just can't help a lot, but she sounds frazzled. Tons of people are calling in about this.

After calling in yesterday and giving them all the orders of mine that are backlogged quite a few usps numbers showed up today on myusps account.

Looks like calling in and escalating does the trick.

Just called them. All orders from 12-19th are affected. "We had some troubles with the USPS, all orders placed from 12th-19th should be delivered tomorrow"

relevant username.

This is what I did, and they couldn't give me the tracking numbers because there was a mistake with USPS and some process of theirs.

All the information you posted was in my post just a few above yours.
