HAVING TROUBLE WITH YOUR PASSWORD OR LOGGING IN?

We Are Aware of the Issue and Here’s a Solution For You.

In May 2023 we migrated to a new system to help eliminate some website issues our customers were experiencing. One of these issues was logging in and passwords being changed by the system. If you are experiencing this issue. Some accounts migrated from the previous system are experiencing password and login issues and because their user profiles are deprecated beyond repair, they will need to follow these steps to regain consistent access to our website and services.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this causes and wish there was a simpler solution, but this won’t take long and you only need to complete these steps once.

Step 1

Create a new account under a new email address.

Step 2

Email us with the subject line “New Account Created Please Migrate FCC Rewards” and provide your email addresses for your old account and your new account.

Step 3

We will then migrate your unused FCC Rewards points to your new account for use on future orders.

Step 4

You can now use your new account going forward.

——

Please Note: You will only need to complete these steps once. New accounts created on the new system will not experience any password or login issues. If you are still experiencing issues after completing these steps, please contact us at [email protected]

Due to recent changes by Yahoo, we highly recommend avoiding the use of Yahoo Mail accounts for sign up and checkout as they may have trouble receiving order confirmations and important correspondence. If this applies to your already existing account with us, please follow the steps outlined above to resolve this issue.

Ordering

We’re one of 100+ dispensaries in Vancouver (over 300 in Canada) that are NOT operating under the federally-approved medical marijuana system. To qualify under the federal system, you’ll need to get a doctor’s approval and Health Canada’s permission to purchase from one of the 50+ licensed producers. City Hall and VPD have allowed dispensaries to proliferate so people can safely access medicine, so long as there are no sales to minors or any gang affiliations.

There are about 40 mail order marijuana sites in Vancouver. Vancouver has been shipping weed in the mail since the 90’s and to date, we know of no-one who has ever been charged with receiving pot in the mail.

That being said, there is still a risk on both ends as we are not working with any federal approval.

Very simple! Just go to the My Account section under the Register section, enter your information, upload your id and choose a password.

Payments and Fees

Payment is accepted via Interac E-transfer only.

How Interac E-transfers Work

If you use online banking with a Canadian bank* or credit union, then sending an Interac E-transfer takes just a couple of minutes.

Instructions will be provided with your online invoice and orders ship only after E-Transfer have been received. If we receive your payment by 12 pm PST (3 pm EST), your order ships the next business day, or else it ships the following business day.

*Please note: If you bank with Tangerine, you need to call the customer service number prior to sending your e-transfer and confirm you want it to be processed. Once that is done, it can take up to 3 business days for payment to come through for processing. Thank you! 

Once you have placed your order, you will receive an email with instructions for the eTransfer.

If you have misplaced or lost the email please send to [email protected] (*NEW Email Address) with the Security Question as your order # and the Password as “faircannacare”

All orders that have been paid for are processed and shipped the following business day. If there is a special event or we host a sale, it can take an additional business day to process your order.

Please be patient on tracking as Canada Post does not scan packages until they reach their sorting facility. This can take Canada Post as much as one day (2 days past your order day) to complete. Unfortunately, this is out of our hands and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Orders received on Friday will ship the following week as we are closed on the weekend.

* Please note that it can take up to 40 minutes for us to receive your E-transfer.

We currently have one shipping method:

Express shipping is $20 Canada wide for orders under $200.

For orders over $200, Express Shipping is FREE.

This shipping method takes 2-5 business days for delivery, depending on your location.

Orders ship from the Vancouver, BC area by Canada Post.

*Your delivery is guaranteed (except for residents of Nunavut and Northern Quebec, or if you provided an inaccurate or incomplete address)

GST/HST is added to your order on the Checkout page.

Once you’ve sent your E-transfer, it can take up to 40 minutes for us to receive an email notifying us of your payment. Your E-transfer will be pending until we collect the E-transfer (when we process your order).Once payment is received, your order will ship within 1 business day. Delivery by Xpresspost will take 3-7 business days once it has shipped.

If you use online banking with a Canadian bank* or credit union, then sending an Interac E-transfer takes just a couple of minutes!

You simply log on and find where it has the ‘Interac E-Transfer’ option, then you go in and set up a new payee. You would enter the e-mail address as [email protected] (*NEW Email Address) and set up your question and answer.

The question should be “For order (enter your order number here)” and the password needs to be faircannacare to make it easy for us to accept.

If you get stuck, you can Google the name of your banking institution + how to send e-transfer and you should find lots of instructions. For information on sending an E-transfer, please contact your bank or http://www.interac.ca/en/interac-e-transfer-consumer.html

*Please note: If you bank with Tangerine, you need to call the customer service number prior to sending your e-transfer and confirm you want it to be processed. Once that is done, it can take up to 3 business days for payment to come through for processing. Thank you! 

Once you’ve placed your order, the next step in the process will be to submit an Interac E-transfer. Your order will be kept On Hold till we receive your E-transfer. If we do not receive your payment within 2 days, your order will be canceled.

Product Info

Yes! Product images are taken (unless provided by our vendor) with an SLR camera in our mini photo studio. Images are not Photoshopped or enhanced.

Shipping

Your order will be discretely packaged and vacuum-sealed to protect and maintain your privacy. We ship from the Vancouver area using Canada Post Xpresspost mailers or nondescript boxes with no indication of what is inside.

There are 2 likely scenarios:

a) the postal worker put it in the wrong mailbox, or

b) what often happens is that a postal worker will scan in all the packages saying they were “successfully delivered” then spend that day and/or the next day delivering it.

If you do not get your package 2 days after the expected delivery date, you can file a trace with your local post office. Canada Post will file an investigation which can take 5 business days to complete. If they can locate the package, they will ship it to you and you’ll get it a few days later.

From Canada Post
The investigation involves contacting the addressee to confirm delivery, or to better understand how they receive their mail and, as applicable, if they checked:

  • with the front desk, security or mail room at the receiving address to see if someone else accepted the item on their behalf;
  • their Community Mail Box for the item or parcel compartment key;
  • around their property to see if the item was left in a safe location or in a mailbox attached to their home.

In rare cases, a delivery scan is entered into our system before the item is delivered.”

We now provide a tracking number with every order.  Please follow the tracking information for updates on your order.  If you do not have your package in hand 2 days after the tracking says it was delivered, you can file a trace with Canada Post.

If a trace is filed, Canada Post will conduct an investigation (which can take 5 business days to complete). If they can locate the package, they will ship it to you and you’ll get it a few days later.

We do not offer postage refunds if your order arrives late due to any postal issues.

Due to the nature of the industry, all orders will be sent with a Signature Required.

If you’re tracking your package on Canada Post’s website and it has not updated in sometime, it’s most likely due to your package missing a scan, which is fairly common.More often than not, members get their packages on time or a day later. If you do not receive it 2 days after your expected date, you can file a trace with your local post office. If a trace is filed, Canada Post will conduct an investigation (which can take 5 business days to complete). If they can locate the package, they will ship it to you and you’ll get it a few days later.

If you’re tracking your package on the Canada Post website and it looks like it’s headed to the wrong city, it’s most likely due to human error at Canada Post. Human errors happen on occasion as the postal employee has to manually enter each postal code in the system and if they are off by a digit/letter, it can cause a routing error and subsequent delay of 1-2 days.

All orders and product details are tracked in our system and we record each order before it leaves our building. The value of any confirmed missing items will be credited* on your account to be used on your next purchase.

*Any credit will occur as points on your account, which can be applied to your next order.

Due to the nature of our business, all shipments that are “returned to sender” are destroyed by Canada Post because we do not have a return address. Therefore we are unable to re-ship packages unless they are lost by Canada Post during transportation.

FairCannaCare is not responsible for items stolen after delivery.

FairCannaCare is not responsible for incorrect addresses entered by the customer at time of checkout. It is your responsibility to make sure you have entered the correct shipping details and we will not ship you a new order due to your error. If you notice that the shipping information is incorrect on your order, please contact us immediately. If the order has not been shipped we can typically update the address without an issue, but if it has already left our facility than there is nothing we can do.
