Trump Tariff Refund Portal Glitches
The attempt to return billions of dollars in collected duties to American companies has hit a significant snag due to technology glitches and processing delays.
Business owners have expressed frustration over the portal's inability to handle the high volume of claims, with some reporting that their applications were lost or rejected without explanation.
President Trump has added to the tension by suggesting he will 'remember' companies that apply for the refunds, which he believes should remain in the federal treasury.
Despite the president's pressure, major shippers like UPS and FedEx have begun filing claims on behalf of their customers to recover the illegal levies.
