Vehicles are no longer registered.

I went into the YVR Nexus office yesterday. All the agent at the reception (very engaged chatting with someone else) was to update the CC on the TDC file, even though that was linked to my partner's CC. I think there may be a disconnect in the systems between the CC you use on GEOS (or is it GOES?) and the CC on the TDC file.

Saw the drop box today. I guess I have never noticed it before. I find it odd that they have never mentioned anything about it in the 3 times I have been to the Nexus office.

Government of Ontario rush service really was - I did the online application on Thursday night and they arrived today (Monday).

There's no disconnect - there's simply no connect - period!

You can also call in any changes to credit card numbers. I've got the number in the car (along with our TDC's) so will post that later.

Does this mean that rental cars are ok to be used with Nexus?

For at least 3 years if not longer. Even for Canadians driving U.S.-plated cars OW to the U.S.

As long as you're not a Canadian driving a US plated car back into Canada!

Was in YVR yesterday and saw notices on the Nexus machines that new cards will be issued with additional security features. I asked one of the Canadian agents as I left the immigration area and he said to just make sure your US or Canadian address is correct with them and you will be sent the new cards automatically. Anyone else seen this?

I thought I saw something along this line somewhere (YVR office last Saturday).

Oh great... so no opportunity to change that horrible picture?

I'd be a little skeptical though of the timing, based on experience. GOES had a message for quite sometime starting at the end of last year to keep your address up to date as they would be sending new cards in Feb. '08. Not only were there no new cards, but when I asked the NEXUS office at YYZ about this in Jan '08, they were clueless as to anything about new cards.

I'm curious what more they could do to the cards... I'd love to be able to swipe it at self service checkin kiosks, but then it would probably be too big for the wallet.. Granted, the cards don't have any sort of hologram on them, so that could be added to make it easier to quickly identify them as legit. Even my old CanPass card had a hologram covering on it.

Well is it just me, or was anybody else surprised at how 'plain' the card was when they got it? I figured for something to do with DHS, it'd have a little more going on than a crappy font with some red lines, some blue lines, and an RFID chip embedded in it!

It's like a next-gen hockey rink!!!!!!

The card stock was just basic blank unsecured card stock... It's done on a printer similar to what Costco uses to make their cards... So yes, they have a huge step to improve the cards.

Wonder if they will no longer issue the cards at the airport locations from then on.
