Register or Relinquish, IT wants you to register your mobile device by May 18

All postal cellular users, regardless of your device type — cellular phone, cellular broadband or BlackBerry — must register your Postal Service-funded cellular service by close of business May 18. Any cellular service not reg­istered at that time will be suspended.

Mobile devices can be registered three ways: You can go directly to http://HQCELLREG.usps.gov. Or, you can reach the registration site from Blue or LiteBlue. Go to either site under “Hot Topics” and click on Important! Register Mobile Device Here!

The Web address for the Postal Service Intranet is http://blue.usps.gov, and the address for LiteBlue is https://liteblue.usps.gov. Remember, your employee ID and pass­word are required to access LiteBlue. The eight-digit ID number is located at the top of your pay stub, and the pass­word is your PostalEASE password.

This Information Technology initiative is aimed at reduc­ing the cost of cellular services. (See Vice President and Chief Technology Officer Robert Otto’s letter, on page 75.) Your action will save the Postal Service a substantial amount of money and lead to an increase in service levels, functionality and improved devices.
