    The rate I am getting returned by the API for UPS Ground is quite a bit lower than what I get quoted through UPS when I go to pay and print the label.

    For example I am seeing $11.59 returned from the API but I get quoted 17.16 with my account on UPS. If I do not enter my account number the price is closer 13.85, but I confirmed the account information is the same between the API and UPS website via the Debug mode. Weight and dimensions are identical in both, so I can not figure out what is causing the difference.

    The rest of the returned rates are pretty close to what I get quoted.

    How do I attach a screen shot? I do not see an option for an attachment.

    Hi @kreish29,

    Thank you for providing the request and response. I tried to match the rates from UPS calculator page and got the same rates as from the plugin. You can check our screenshot here : https://ibb.co/bVWsyJ

    Hence, we are not able to get you when you say that you are charged 17.16.
    Can you please share with us a screenshot of the rates that you get from UPS? You can host your screenshots here

    I was able to confirm on the UPS website that the shipping rate when from $17 down to ~$11 with now aligns with the price quoted on the website. Thank you!

    Hi @kreish29,

    Great to know that your issue is resolved.
