Hey, The past 3 or 4 weeks I've been having trouble with USPS's tracking. It will get the first 3 updates then start having issues. Has anyone else had this issue?

Yes,I have seen that happening. But what I can't figur out is the ETA on mine said delivery for 12/13/14 so stalk the mail man he comes by no package, of my "Radio" then I check the tracking and it said delivered. ? ... going to post office on Monday. I am Bumed.
More packages dropping into the system for the holidays and it is probably causing some problems with the automation. I work in logistics and we have this issue with tracking every year around three weeks prior to Christmas.
They use automated scanners on their conveyor/sort system and when a package is upside down and can't scan at a hub it's not being addressed. Normally those are resolved but the volumes are probably to high and they have shut off the exceptions reporting and are letting them pass through.

USPS Tracking update on my package "Radio" claimed undeliverable as addressed sending back to mailer. Mybe broken bottle??? Wait and see.
USPS tracking was "Unavailable" on three separate occasions yesterday.
I think they are pushing the system past its limits with the holiday traffic.

I'm in another country, so maybe my issues are related mostly to international shipping, but I've had the following in the last month with USPS...
* No tracking - the item has the electronic info registered and then nothing until it shows at my door.
* Stalled tracking - the item is tracked to a location and then the tracking doesn't update until it's out for delivery.
* Unavailable - this is intermittent; packages pop in and out of online tracking. The same package can wink in and out of existence several times.
* Black Hole - some packages go to a location and sit there for weeks (not in customs, just in some random location).
* Bizarro routing - I had a package sent from Seattle (200 kms from me) that got sent to Israel (you read that right) and then to me.
Soooo... yeah, I'd say USPS is pretty taxed at the moment. Doesn't help you in your hour of need, of course, but I can also say that everything eventually got to me.

In the past two weeks I've had one package reported as "undeliverable" and ended up returned to the vendor, one package that overshot me by 1700 miles and somehow ended up in Vermont (where it currently remains), one package that simply hasn't moved in over a week, and WATCHED from my door as the mail carrier put a pink "sorry we missed you" slip in my mailbox for a package I then had drive to the post office (across town), to pick up the next day. Looks like USPS is struggling/stressed more than normal this holiday season. Regular letters seem to be moving just fine, it's packages (even very small ones), and bubble envelopes that seem to be a problem for them.
Ive had the same issues as well they had a package of mine that said no safe place to leave but the package that was 3x's the size was in my mailbox the same day i think they are just way understaffed for the amount of packages being moved at this time of year.
My package usually goes to Chicago and then I get no update till it arrives where I currently live at... Which is weird. First time I questioned USPS and they always refer me to the MPO page telling me that they can help me which they don't lol. I just pray everytime I ship something that it gets to me.
I recently ordered an Egrip and it says it hasnt moved from new york, yet its supposed to be here tomorrow
I recently ordered an Egrip and it says it hasnt moved from new york, yet its supposed to be here tomorrow so i'm just kinda confused
Yea, it just didnt update until it was in the city next to my town, but it was still on time
I had a package that the store said was shipped a week ago and the tracking still says shipping label created and no updates in a week.
lol I have a package that was supposed to be delivered today... On it's way here from IL over the past two weeks it's been to Hawaii, California, Seattle, and it finally arrived in Denver this evening. It's supposed (fingers crossed) to be delivered tomorrow... At least I'll have a good starting steep for thin juice...
