Bing Can Track 12 Digits Fedex Numbers But Not Google

Did you know Bing is better at Google when it comes to tracking some FedEx packages?

FedEx has a 12 digit tracking number format that Google has no clue how to handle, while Bing handles it gracefully.

Search for a 12-digit tracking number in Bing and get the link to the tracking results at FedEx:

bing fedex 12 digits

Do that same search on Google and get complaint threads:

google fedex 12 digits

I personally had no idea this was an issue for Google. The longer 15 digit FedEx tracking numbers work fine in Google but these 12 digit ones do not.

Update: A couple weeks later, Google added support for these Fedex numbers:

fedex google
