Postal Rate Update (mandatory)
Postal rates change periodically. If new rates are available, you can
download them quickly and easily directly from the Pitney Bowes
Data Centre.
The new rates are normally available for download at least seven
days before the effective date. If you connect to the Data Centre in
advance of the rate change effective date and the rates are posted
for download, the system will instruct you to download the rates at
that time. However, the new rates will not take effect in your system
until the effective date.
Some of the common screens encountered when connected to the
Data Centre during a Postal Rate change are listed below.
