Yeah it would be a good idea to get another one. Once I have internet at home I'm gonna email everyone with the situation (get internet tomorrow).
what if you can't get another one?

There are 500 and some odd left. You can buy a new one online. I would suggest you do this relatively soon, since it is a popular event, and those admissions are selling fast.

Ah, my bad. Didn't think of that. Was taking into account that this is hopefully just a temporary solution until our original one shows up, and as long as it does before May 18th, we can get a refund.

And hopefully it will show up before that, cuz those things aren't cheap, even if you do get it before the price goes up . . .

BTW, is there a way to get our money back if North doesn't get it before they fill up? (ie: letting the bank know, etc?). I seem to recall someone saying to me that if a cheque gets lost in the mail, you just let the bank know which cheque number of yours it was or something, and then it automatically becomes void. Not sure if the same can be done for money orders . . .

So me and Kay bought ours the day it went up out of paranoia, but I'm curious what exactly is going on with this? how did you mail the money? what are the AN people saying? I'm sure everyone else wants to know too

Hey its that one guy...

The registration was sent by mail and normally I've never had an issue with Canada Post or sending things to people in the mail. I've maybe had a few things go missing before but nothing like this. Registration is aware of the issue and are looking to see if it got over looked or perhaps backlog/lost. Although supposedly registration told me that it can take a while before notification would be mailed out, up to and including 3 weeks.

I also spoke with TD (worst bank to use apparently for anything) and they are looking into it are supposed to get back to me. I am hopeful they can help me at least if anything void the money order but at this point I am not sure. I can't believe this even happened. Needless to say I am changing banks and never using the mail for anything ever again.

Its all my fault, I take full responsibility and obv want this resolved as much as anyone. I feel really bad and more embarrassed if anything. Its just more stress added to the already growing shit pile of stress that's been accumulating in my life.

Thanks for the info Brad!

but again, just out of concern, did you or did you not just put the cash in the envelope?

hope this turns out well! I'm sure we'll see everyone at AN regardless of what happens

Brad, this is not your fault! Do you have any control over where the mail goes? Methinks not! These things do happen, and that's why it's important to get things like this tracked. But even if you did get it tracked, it could still get lost. Those things are waaaaaay beyond your control!

I've been with TD for as long as I can remember, and they've been pretty good to me. If it's a problem with the money order itself, then yes it is their fault, but if it's a problem with the mail delivery, then it's Canada Post's fault, not the bank's.

yeah. you know you can get the post office to send a tracker after the money order so even though it didnt get to an at least they can track where it went and send it back and then its not a waste of money for everyone who did it

I spoke with Canada Post but they weren't really helpful and said there was no way they could track an envelope since I just used a normal envelope but I will certainly check with them again and see.

Mom says that if you bring the pink slip from the money order to the bank and report it lost, they have to refund it no matter what. Even if it's been cashed fraudulently.
