Resolution
If you are unable to locate an e-Return Receipt signature on your online account, do the following:
- Ensure the status of the item is delivered. This can be done by viewing the Status column on the Pitney Bowes website.
- Ensure the item was processed with e-Return Receipt. This can be done by viewing the Cost column on the Pitney Bowes website. The cost of the item should be greater than $5.50 (postage + certified + e-Return Receipt).
- Ensure enough time has passed for the e-Return Receipt to be available on the Pitney Bowes website. This can be done by viewing the Status Date column on the Pitney Bowes website.
- The e-Return Receipt signatures are sent from the USPS to the Pitney Bowes website once per week, on Mondays. If Monday is a federal holiday, the e-Return Receipt signatures will be sent from the USPS to the Pitney Bowes website on Tuesday.
- Typically, if an item is delivered early in the week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday), the e-Return Receipt signature will be available on the Pitney Bowes website the following Monday. If an item is delivered late in the week (Friday, Saturday, Sunday), the e-Return Receipt signature will be available on the Pitney Bowes website either the following Monday or the second following Monday.
