The US Postal Service has introduced USPS Premium Monitoring, which allows consumers to view the tracking history of a domestic shipment for a fee. Thanks to a tip from a fan, we were the first to blog on the latest feature on Sunday.
Since then, we’ve heard that the available package provides a premium monitoring statement that can be used as “USPS proof of delivery” in dispute resolution and legal and court cases.
Customers who use usps.com now have small tracking details for non-signature (120 days) and signature items (two years). Customers who buy USPS Premium Monitoring will have online access to their tracking information for up to ten years.
