UPS My Choice service introduced in PHL

UPS has expanded its package-delivery management service UPS My Choice to 96 countries and territories, including the Philippines.

In a statement, UPS said the service will be introduced in 13 markets in Asia Pacific, including Australia, China, Japan, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam.

UPS said this was the biggest expansion since UPS My Choice was launched seven years ago. Membership in UPS My Choice has surpassed the 52-million mark worldwide.

“For consumers globally and in the Philippines, the growing demand for convenience and customization are top priorities when it comes to online shopping,” Chris Buono, managing director of UPS Philippines, was quoted as saying in a statement.

“With the UPS My Choice Expansion, businesses and individual customers alike can expect greater control over home deliveries, with planned deliveries that fit their schedule. Through consistent and accurate updates on delivery status, UPS My Choice makes the delivery process even simpler — a plus for today’s busy shoppers,” he added.

UPS My Choice users can receive e-mail and text notifications that the package is on its way, a day before delivery alert and a delivery notification. In some countries and territories where there is an option to make changes in delivery, users can also route packages to another address, opt to hold the delivery, or reschedule for delivery on another day.
