This news is disgusting. Right in time for the holidays when we are already overburdened? I bet they are paying pennies too while our customers that actually need deals just got rate hikes for the holidays. Plus we won’t be payed for it for a year. Rural carriers everywhere scammed again.

You don't get paid until you get a new evaluation semi-yearly after each MMS so we don't get paid properly for one year. Coverage factor isn't based on parcels.

And by the time the year goes by and we get “paid” something else will happen and we will lose elsewhere so it won’t even make a difference.

Not getting what I meant.

You will get paid on evaluation after a year for the parcels, but to counteract the gain they will say your coverage factor is a lot lower to make it even is what i mean.

I think they read what we’re most concerned about and turn up the deny,deny, deny and ignore response knob.
