Hi,
Yes that’s correct and the tba often indicate that they’re using Amazon 
Logistics which uses I don’t know who as third party couriers locally but yes 
they are as of yet not supported. Though there is a way with the Parcel app not 
parcel track but parcel to forward amazon to them from platforms such as gmail 
and it can recognize them but that’s the only way they can’t be entered 
manually and work anywhere.
Take good care.
Robin

Robin,

 

Thanks for the reply. I was able to successfully add a UPS package to ShipRack 
that was originally rejected by selecting the shipper manually and then adding 
the tracking number. I still am unable to track packages that Amazon ships 
using what I believe is a special arrangement with the US Postal Service. These 
tracking numbers begin with a TBA followed by several numerical digits and I've 
never successfully tracked these with any tracking app.

Hi Sir,

I have noticed Shiprack running a bit slower but no can’t reproduce the unknown 
number here. Sometimes I do notice that Parceltrack doesn’t AutoDetect the 
carrier so if I tap on courier and then just select it and then save it seems 
happier.

I totally understand wanting to track especially this time of the year. Have 
you tried manually selecting the courier in Parceltrack? I also after pasting 
the number in review by character to make sure there’s nothing extraneous at 
the end like any tabs or spaces. That seems to make it happier as well.

Robin

Hi List,

 

I'm wondering if anyone else using package tracking apps is having the same 
issue I'm experiencing. I use both ParcelTrack and ShipRack but the past few 
shipments I've tried tracking with either app return an unknown carrier after I 
paste in the tracking number. When this happens, I'm unable to track the 
package with the app. I've gotten this on shipments handled by FedEx, UPS, and 
the US Postal Service. I really like tracking my packages especially during 
this time of year when packages have a better chance of being misappropriated 
from one's porch.

 

Is anyone else experiencing a similar issue or does anyone know what's causing 
it? I'm very careful inputting the tracking info into the apps and always copy 
and paste the tracking numbers.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.
