QR Code INVALID at USPS

[xxmissphoebexx]

I have been purchasing shipping via ebay and downloading QR codes to take to USPS to print the label since this option began. Suddenly this is no longer working.

I sold two items. For each one I purchased a shipping label via ebay, and downloaded the QR code (like I have done MANY times before). I packed up the items, and took them to USPS, went to the window for QR code to be scanned, and the label printed. NEITHER worked. The employee said the code was invalid. 

Has something changed?

I was the first to respond on this thread with the same issues. I contacted Ebay right away and they knew of the issue & I have a printer so I’ve been using it successfully/labels do scan at USPS. I’m here wondering if QR were back in business because my printer almost out of ink. Good to know beforehand that they are NOT working. Saves a pain in the butt of voiding/obtaining refunds. I hope they get it sorted soon. And it’d have been REAL NICE if they sent a message or email to ALL SELLERS when this error started occurring & then another message to ALL SELLERS upon it being fixed but NOPE. They don’t care.

I'm going to try the QR code tomorrow. I'll let you know.

My QR codes have been working again. Hopefully yours work as well! Cheers.

Is anyone still having issues? I tried to scan 3 different QR codes today. All were invalid.

That the QR codes aren't working is worse than deserving of a "help ticket", IMO, how about a refund eBay!

And another thing, the QR code has no link to the buyer unless you scan the code! That isn't always possible or convenient. That increases the likelihood of confusing multiple shipments. There seems to be no record of the QR code on the label page or order page or in the file name of the QR code. That is not always possible and 

Or am I just daft.

For those who have used the QR codes for a while: How do you keep track of which code goes with which package?

My post office is intolerant of printing the label and waiting while I find the box to match it.

Good luck and thank you.
