Register Now To Potentially Claim Some Cash In A New Class Action Lawsuit Against Canada Post
Have you ordered items and had them delivered to your home since the onset of the Covid19 pandemic????
Have any of these items been delivered by Canada Post???
If you have then your order more than likely arrived well past the originally promised date of delivery!!!
I know that none of my packages arrived on time and it’s still happening. I ordered a new pair of glasses that were sent out by expedited shipping for which I had to pay $14 and they were promised to me by last Friday!!!
Well I finally get an email from them today with the usual excuses and a tracking number that only tells me that they left from somewhere today and to check back for more up to date info as it becomes available!!!!!
So what did I get for my $14??? Nothing but a broken promise and a stock email just like the thousands of others Canada Post has sent out since March 2020!!!
Well hang on for this latest development….A request was made to the Quebec Superior Court on July 6th, which aims to get compensation for people who’ve paid for expedited shipping, but not received their packages on time!!!!
According to the documents filed, several fast delivery services, including Priority, Xpresspost and Expedited Parcel come with a guarantee of on-time delivery, a promise which comes at a higher price.
This guarantee makes it possible to request a reimbursement of costs if your package is delivered after the scheduled date.
However, Canada Post announced on March 19, 2020, that it was suspending this guarantee due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
This move came “abruptly and without warning or consent,” claims the lawsuit.
However, the lawsuit alleges that the delivery time guarantee is still detailed on the company’s website, despite numerous press releases explaining the delays.
The lawsuit, therefore, claims that Canada Post “has charged and continues to charge its customers for services that it cannot currently guarantee” and that it “has been unjustly enriched by its illegal conduct.”
In order to compensate the affected customers, the class-action lawsuit calls on Canada Post to reimburse all costs paid for expedited shipping services.
It’s also asking the company to pay a total of $400 to each customer for “troubles and inconveniences” and “punitive damages.”
The amounts requested also include additional interest rates.
