Delivery


While we were in the US our credit card was compromised.  I noticed a few Uber Eats charges that were not ours.  We called the credit card company.  Our card was cancelled and a new one issued.  

We had no idea how they would get a card to us in Bonaire. I spent hours on the phone trying to explain how to get the cards to us.  In a round-about way, they were shipped by UPS to the Dutch Caribbean. 

We checked the mail daily, knowing full well that there is no mail delivery on the island.  I waited two weeks to check on our cards. The credit card company said mail is slow be patient.  I was given a UPS tracking number. We tracked the UPS number that never said it was delivered.

Rick got the grand idea to call the UPS local office.  Believe it or not, they had our envelope. We raced to the UPS office which is at the airport to get our new credit cards. UPS got the package here in two weeks from the time I called for new cards. 

We have now successfully sent and received documents with both DHL and UPS.
