  • Was great, now... not so much

    When this functionality was added to Woo Commerce, it was a game changer for me. The convenience was great and the cost was identical to other shipping services outside of Woo. Recently, the rates have changed and it's no longer a value to use it. It's convenient, but when you're spending an additional $10 a day to use it, the decision to move away from it is easy to make. I hope things change, but until such time I will not be using their shipping module.

  • Pricing for USPS is no longer the best pricing available

    Pricing for USPS is no longer the best pricing available. Previously this plugin offered pricing that was the same as the other "commercial discount rates" offered by Shippo, PirateShipping, etc. Recently this has changed. The rates for USPS from this plugin are now about 7% higher than the others. I contacted their support about this was their answer: "Platforms like Pirateship and Shippo may offer lower figures on some shipments because they automatically compare weight-based and cubic pricing for each package and apply whichever is cheaper, and because they aggregate volume across all their merchants to access deeper rate tiers.""This is not a price increase or a bug on our end. The gap reflects a structural difference in how each platform accesses USPS rates." This is false information. The pricing has always been exactly the same as the others. They have definitely made an adjustment, i.e. added on more profit margin for the plugin. I should also note that this has nothing to do with cubic pricing as they falsely claim.. The other sites are not using cubic pricing when I compare rates. Guess it's time to move on from this one.

  • DON'T make a notification come back once I've cleared it

    I get it, UPS Ground Saver is now available. Stop junking up the WordPress Dashboard with notifications that keep coming back even once you've dismissed them. I'm not exaggerating when I say I have dismissed this UPS Ground Saver notification at least 20-30 times a day every day for the past week or more, and yet it keeps coming back. It's a waste of my screen real estate and a waste of my time. This is so incredibly disrespectful to the user I can't even fathom what the though process behind it is.
