USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

For at least the last 2 days the Click N Ship service has been down.

I have been getting the dreaded

"This service is temporarily unavailable.

We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause." Message.

Tonight I see they added the following line:

In the interim, please visit one of our approved vendors; www.Endicia.com or www.Stamps.com for your shipping needs.

Anyone know if this is going to be a long term issue?

Makes you wonder since they are referring you to outside vendors :hm

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

Pissing me off.. I have a bomb and a trade I need postage for and can't do either :(

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I just kept trying an eventually it went through

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I have a pass that needs to be mailed out, and now I have to go stand in line :fl

I was having problems Monday with the system not recognizing my zip code so it wouldn't let me make shipping labels...yesterday morning I was able to get it to print me a couple of labels. Apparently they are having problems with their online shipping system.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I downloaded USPS Shipping Assistant 3.5 a month or so ago. It prints labels, calculates shipping costs, imports address books, consolidates all your package tracking, and pretty much runs everything that Click & Ship does except for collecting the postage payments.

I know that doesn't keep you from having to stand in line somewhere, but hopefully it will help.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I have to stand in line late today too:mad:

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I got lucky yesterday with it... :ss

Email from the USPS this morning:

Yep me too Greg it looks like.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I'm trying Endicia - the site must be bogged down with all the Click N Ship users, because it's freaking slow.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

Thumbs down for endicia - $10 a month, really old, crappy software and you have to prepay for postage in at least $10 increments rather than paying for what you use.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

This is really getting frustrating...

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

Finally got through this morning. They still have the interruptions warning up on the home page, so I don't know if it's up for good or I got lucky.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

I received the same e-mail as Stick yesterday morning.

Re: USPS Click N Ship Down ???
 

Got this email update, hopefully the issues are resolved:
