    We had a firepit delivered, this was the second shipment as the first time it came damaged. When they delivered the first one the delivery driver graciously helped bring it to the backyard. (I gave a nice tip). The new one was delivered today and the driver said he will not help my wife bring it 30 feet to the back yard. HE left the firepit on the front driveway, did not help check for the parts and left. Very unprofessional.

    I received 6 messages about a Sunday delivery and then I called FedEx number and was told, "Well we will deliver Monday. Monday sometime." Wasted my whole day waiting for the delivery. FedEx used to be a good company but well they need some new leadership to get them back on track. They rarely answer the phones. Called a 24 hour number and it rang 6 times then it hung me up.

    Fed Ex has a problem with their labeling. I have a long address with a unit number that is consistently left off their label. However, other shippers (Amazon, USPS, UPS) do not have any problem getting my complete address and unit number on their labels. I get their deliveries all the time without a problem. This happens to me only with Fed Ex. Fed Ex customer service always politely informs me that I am not able to make the correction because only the seller can do that. I keep trying though! Then I am responsible for contacting the seller to relay all of that information. This takes time away from other things that I need to do in my life and it is aggravating and inconvenient. I have not found any way to direct a formal complaint to Fed Ex. If there is a way, I hope someone will post it so I can give them that feedback.

    On Wednesday, October 6, my bank sent a new credit card to my apartment address via FedEx. On Thursday, October 7, I got a voice message from FedEx alerting me that the delivery would be on Friday, October 8, before noon. I stayed in my apartment all morning so I would be able to accept the delivery. However, I only found a sticker on my apartment door in the afternoon saying that FedEx tried to deliver but nobody was present. The FedEx person made no attempt to contact me.

    On the phone, FedEx customer support told me that FedEx couriers cannot call the person to whom they deliver to let them know they are approaching. Why not? This is inexplicable to me, and I know of no other business that sends employees to someone's residence without giving them the opportunity to call in advance. Furthermore, the delivery person apparently did not even try to knock on my door. My apartment is small, and I would have heard it. This is completely unprofessional and can cause damage to the recipient. I find it hard to believe that a worldwide organization like FedEx operates on such an amateurish level.

    I'm not going to repeat all the problems mentioned in all the other reviews. Yes, 95% of deliveries are AT LEAST 5 days late, up to a month. And, on the rare occasion they do actually deliver on-time, they deliver to the wrong address, usually several blocks away. My solution is to no longer order from any company that cannot offer me an alternate delivery service. I then notify the company's corporate office that I will be placing all my orders with one of their competitors who will ship via a reliable company. For example, I order online constantly from Home Depot, however they will not allow me to request an alternate delivery company. Even their phone reps said the majority of their calls related to FedEx problems.

    When I emailed their corporate HQ, I received several emails trying to keep me as a customer. The person also sent a few emails begging to talk to me on the phone about it, which I refused since she had made it clear via email that there was no alternative they could offer me. I have done the same with several other companies I used to order a lot from. Of course, I have also asked everyone I know to do the same. FedEx isn't going to change. But, if enough pressure can be put on the companies that ship via them, then maybe more companies will stop using them, as Amazon did due to all their delivery problems. Trying to complain to FedEx or put pressure on them will get you nowhere, as they simply don't care. But, the corporate HQ's of the major retailers do take notice, especially the more they hear from customers they are losing. Just my approach and 2-cents.

    Received automated call advising delivery next day, need to be present to sign. No delivery was attempted until 5th day - notice left when I was at meeting offsite - would return next day. No attempt next day or following day. Much effort to reach human to ask, if cannot determine re-delivery date, is it where I can pick it up FedEx cannot track or communicate with trucks. It's now 8 days it's been on a truck somewhere. Really needed this item. Disappointed. Note: outgoing shipping process with FedEx is very good - its receiving end that was not.

    The last 4 packages I have received from Fedex in the last 4 months have been late, and delivered to wrong address in my neighborhood. The items varied in size, value, and delivery service. Fedex customer service is just as bad. From customer service to managers, they are equally bad. Fedex has become so horrible that I have stopped making purchases if I can verify that Fedex is the only option for delivery. It is sad to see such a well known, formerly dependable delivery company go down hill so bad. UPS and the USPS have been great, even with Covid. Fedex continues to use Covid as their main excuse. This along with losing Amazon contract. It is no wonder they lost it, judging by their pathetic track record.

    I had a high-end guitar shipped from a guitar store in Vancouver to my home in Whitehorse. The shipper structed FedEx because he said they are good with protecting fragile items. Turns out FedEx has my 4k dollar guitar farmed out to third-party carriers who had no tracking ability. My package tracked to Edmonton Alberta and then stopped, but with a promised delivery date based on apparently nothing. I called FedEx when my guitar didn't arrive and went through 3 customer agents over 4 hours. I was put on hold for an hour with nothing but dead air so I eventually hung up and started again.

    Each time I was told they have no idea who delivers FedEx packages in my city. They outright refused to tell me. I asked for a manager and was told the manager is not available. They will absolutely not tell you who has your package or when it will arrive. They don't want to admit they hand your package to anyone who will take it with zero screening of the third-party companies they use.

    So the slogan for FedEx should be: When you ship with FedEx, you never know who you are actually shipping with and we won't tell you. I hate this company and I don't have my guitar. What a surprise. It isn't here and my only option is to file a claim. May Amazon ban you again and may you go bankrupt. I hate you. You have ruined what was something I have wanted for decades and finally thought I would get. But nope. It's somewhere with some company and only FedEx knows. But they won't tell!

    Ordered a package from Vatican City to Louisiana that arrived in 2 days via DHL. When I forwarded the package from Louisiana to California, I chose FedEx Express Overnight with guaranteed delivery. Quite the cost. I shipped the package and it arrived at the FedEx hub in Memphis that same night (Monday). It's now 48 hours later and it's still in Memphis with no expected delivery date.

    I opened a tracer on the package on Tuesday once the guaranteed delivery time had passed. I was assured the package was in a container ready for its flight. The next morning, it still showed as being in Memphis. I called the tracer office and again was told it was being escalated and would be on a plane shortly. 5 hours later it was still in Memphis.

    I called AGAIN. I was told, actually used the word promise, that my package would be delivered tomorrow. They overpromise and underdeliver. I was told they are extremely busy. So I am. Getting a refund send harder than an act of Congress. I'm not even sure my package exists or what condition it's in. It seems their mantra is one of, "We're busy and we'll get to it when we get to it." USE ANOTHER SERVICE. ANY OTHER ONE would be better than these jokers.

    FedEx only cares about money, not customers. The company clearly prioritizes businesses who are willing to pay money to ship items to customers. They do not care about recipients of packages. Many times I have had packages that are "lost" or that are delivered far beyond the "expected delivery date." Most recently, I had a package that I was required to sign for that was to be delivered on Friday morning. I had to stay home from work to sign for the package only to have said package not show up even though the website continued to say the package was "on time" and was expected to be delivered between 9:15 a.m. and 2:20 p.m.

    It's now Saturday, and they only say that the package delivery date is now "pending," except I can see that the package is one state away and moving. Why can they not estimate a new delivery date? Why can't they invest in a system that ACTUALLY updates expected delivery dates based on transit rather than just giving you some delivery time that is completely irrelevant to the actual travel of your package and is never updated until after the delivery window? That wastes people's time. But it gets better. I've called and spoken with a representative who knows nothing about my package, and the representative could do nothing to allow me to sign for the package ahead of time or to tell me when the package might be delivered.

    I cannot afford to take a day off work on the off chance that my package MIGHT be delivered just so I can be here to sign in person. I asked if I could leave a FedEx form ahead of time signing for approval of the package and the representative told me no. I will be writing to the company that I purchased my item from and suggesting that they switch shipping companies. I don't matter to FedEx, but I know that a company that ships 75lb e-bikes does. I hope others complain and suggest that companies switch, too. FedEx does not prioritize its individual customers, its workers, or its infrastructure. All the company leaders care about is the money they get from businesses.

    I called to correct delivery hour info for our facility (local small animal hospital). We get deliveries daily based on vendors/products availability. Some products are controlled drugs, some are cold shipped and others are special order meds for patients. We have set hours Monday-Friday. For some reason our delivery drivers always show up when we are closed only. Which then delays/postpones everything. We are on day 4 of waiting for a controlled anesthetic drug, this has caused us to postpone a procedure due to FedEx's inconsistent deliveries.

    When I called to ensure our hours are noted I had zero help from customer service. I was told, "we attempted to deliver a package but no one was there, they will try again." I AGAIN explained my general concern. I was then asked to hold, which I did for 17+minutes and then directed to do submit a review on my call. When I called back, I kept getting ask for a tracking number. I again explained the reason for my call. NOT just one specific package. I was then told there is no way to note business hours and they delivery when they can during their set hours. Customer service support is clearly outsourced. They do not listen (or understand) the callers issue/concerns. Their only resolution is to read a generic, pre-written response.

    *I'd like to add that employees have been flagged down while in their cars or outside when our facility is closed, so FedEx may drop off a package. They have also left packages with a neighboring business. All of which have been controlled products. We are fully aware of the heavy workload, and staffing shortage, but that does not make these listed problems acceptable.

    I wish I had read these reviews sooner. They charge you more for “overnight shipping” but don’t overnight it. Then when you spend an hour on the phone with customer service to get a refund you finally talk to a supervisor who tells you you didn’t pay for weekend delivery. Except I dropped off my delivery on a Thursday so it should have been delivered on Friday (which is what their computer system showed when I selected it) so that feedback doesn’t make sense as it is… STOP OVERCHARGING PEOPLE AND NOT DELIVERING!

I called Fed Ex customer service and told them the situation, thinking they would send a driver to pick up the package but was told it shows package delivered. After explaining several times it did not belong to me, the agent told me to leave it in front of my door and the person who the package is addressed to will come pick it up. Really????

    FedEx will make it so very difficult to get your packages, it seems as though this is their thing. I am at the point of writing this review because too many times the same thing has happened. I've ordered online since the year 2000 and can tell you FedEx is nothing like UPS, USPS or Amazon. One example is, they will not come to your door and knock and will take the package back and automatically schedule a delivery the next day. They will not call you, EVER and that would omit most of the issues, especially if you have a locked apartment building. If you call FedEx, they won't offer any solution if your package must be signed for. If this type of thing happened once or twice, I would not bother to post a review, but this seems to be every time whether I order something for myself or someone else.

    This last time, I even signed the note on my townhome's door and left instructions, but the note was never removed and the package scheduled for delivery again, for Monday (I've been trying to get this item since Tuesday and calling them every day). The solution was for me to cancel the order, reorder and have the item shipped to my work place. I hope FedEx doesn't figure out a way to not deliver it there.

    I left Palm Beach Florida on Thursday morning, 8/26 had the Hotel ship my suitcase using their corporate account with Fed Ex. I was assured that ground shipping would suffice and ETA would be Tuesday, 8/31. Thankfully I insured my suitcase, I have just learned that the bag has been sitting in the trailer in the Orlando Hub since Sunday when I initially received notification that the bag was in transit. So the Bag is sitting in Orlando Florida since Sat. with items that I desperately need. I called and found out that they had to open a claim to locate the bag and will provide an update tomorrow Thursday morning. So the bag never left the State of Florida. 1 week has gone by. DON'T USE FED EX!

    I ask that all my packages be delivered to my back door where it is covered and secure. Fedex consistently leaves my packages in front of my garage exposed to the weather and unsecured. I have spoken with local management several times and always get the same response, ”I will speak to the driver.” Then they hang up on me and won’t allow me to speak. Totally unprofessional and rude. If I have a choice, I will never use fedex.

Why wasn't I advised of this in advance so I can make arrangements? Am I to lift it myself? Am I the only one who sees an issue with this? This is poor service.

    I placed 2 orders with a company for products I was going to test out for my clients in my Massage Business. Both orders shipped on the same day. Both packages came through Indianapolis (closest big city to me), and then departed for OTHER STATES many hours out of the way in defiance of all logic and reason when the packages should have gone up to South Bend and on to my location for delivery. Each package went to a completely different location: one went to Ohio and back and was finally delivered today 8/31, the other went up to Michigan and made its way over to the Detroit area, about 5 hours away from me and has no delivery date posted.

    I have made multiple calls to actual locations trying to find out where the package is sitting. They say they cannot give me more information at this time, neither apologize nor offer to do anything, then direct me to the 800 number for customer service. I have also made several calls to their customer service number, and the one this morning took the cake!!! I was told it was not their responsibility, and to call the shipper. In all seriousness, how in the world is this not their problem when they have possession of the package and clearly have been incompetently routing it everywhere except where it is to be delivered? No one at FedEx will explain. No one at FedEx will give me information that they could obtain by simply calling the last location where the package was scanned, ask if it is still there and if so when it will move back toward South Bend for actual delivery.

    This company's standards and level of customer service are so subpar that I am surprised they have not already gone out of business due to lack of people using their woefully inept services. I would encourage anyone who ships products (personal or business) to use ANY other service than FedEx. Even the US Postal Service is better at giving useful and appropriate information than they are, and I have had more than my fair share of interaction with USPS over any number of issues.

    Personally, my preference is UPS. They are always reliable in this area. As a matter of course, I will not use FedEx to ship anything from my business or from my home EVER AGAIN, and I will try to avoid using vendors and companies who do use FedEx for their deliveries. I will also tell everyone I know to boycott FedEx unless and until they correct their policies and procedures to better reflect proper Customer Service, something I am intimately familiar with as I have worked in Customer Service in multiple capacities since I entered the workforce 23 years ago. If I owned this business, I would be firing upper management, bringing in new talent with a better mindset, and ordering all policies and procedures to be reviewed and modified as appropriate to better reflect the goal of expeditious and timely arrival of packages (including real-time tracking), in good condition, with Excellent Customer Service.

    Fedex is utterly useless. I ordered a package that was delayed multiple times because I was not there to receive it. I contacted Fedex and told them I could not be at my business location on demand. They agreed to have the package dropped off at a local pickup location. I called this location over the course of two weeks to check on the package, yet it was never there. Finally, I called Fedex to check on this package again. It had been returned to the shipper. I was not able to reach customer service because the automated voice told me, "A representative will not be able to provide further information on this package". I will never use Fedex by choice again.

It was sent back to Charlotte late that night, with the delivery date was delayed again to Wednesday 8/18, where it sat all day and was finally sent to Greenville SC too late to be delivered to Seneca. I called customer service and was assured it would be delivered Thursday 8/19. Now I am told they “can’t find a van to take it to Seneca so it SHOULD be delivered by end of day Friday 8/20”.

I had attempted several times to get an answer. I had told Yeral that I will file a complaint with the way she's handling the situation. I called to file a complaint, I got connected to this guy name Edward from the escalations department, and after a few minutes he just muted me and left the line on.

    On 8/7/21, I spoke to 3 different FedEx Representatives. Each time that I spoke to a different FedEx Representative, I was told a different story as to where my package is, and why it was delayed. To begin with, the first FedEx representative that I spoke with tried to give me wrong information, because she took one look at the status of my package and tried to claim that the package was going to be delivered on 8/7/21, without taking the time to see that is not accurate, and in fact, there was a Delivery Exception on the package, and that Delivery Exception is stated very clearly on the status of the order.

    Only when I repeatedly stated that the information this FedEx representative had given me was wrong, did this FedEx representative actually do her job and take any time at all to see that the information that she had given me was wrong. This same FedEx representative also claimed that the business, the sender that sent the package, had requested a change in the delivery. When I tried to make a complaint about the fact that FedEx has repeatedly given me wrong information over the past year regarding numerous orders, and when I tried to resolve the delivery issues that I am currently having with FedEx, this same FedEx representative that I spoke with hung the phone up on me.

    As this FedEx representative was clearly not competent, and didn’t even seem to know what she was doing, and my issue was still not resolved, I called back to FedEx and asked to speak to a manager about the issue. The second FedEx representative that I spoke with stated that I would have to contact the business, the sender that sent my package to me, as the address on the package was wrong. When I told this second FedEx representative about the bad experience that I had had with the prior FedEx representative that I had previously spoken with, they told me that they could transfer me to a manager to make a complaint.

    I was then transferred to a third FedEx representative that was supposedly a manager, and she stated that the package could not be delivered to a P.O. Box, so I would need to provide a street address to FedEx in order to have the package delivered. I gave her the street address for a business, and she stated that she would change the address on the package to the street address that I gave her, and that she would personally see to it that the package was delivered. This same FedEx representative also stated that she was sorry for the bad experiences that I had had with FedEx.

    I then checked the status of my package about 24 hours later, and there was no movement at all, nor any updates which had been made to the address for the package, which was concerning. I then called back to FedEx on 8/8/21, and spoke to a fourth FedEx representative, and this FedEx representative stated that I had been misinformed, and that she wasn’t even sure that I had spoken to a manager at all about the issue, so, it is likely that FedEx lied to me about the fact that I had even spoken to a manager the prior day. This same FedEx representative also stated that the package in question had been sent back to the business, and that the FedEx representative that I had spoken with the prior day who had stated that they would correct the address on the package had misinformed me, and they didn’t even have the authority to make an address change.

    When I stated that I had been lied to then, that the FedEx representative that I spoke with on 8/7/21 had not told me the truth, this fourth FedEx representative agreed with me, that I had been lied to, that a FedEx representative had lied to me on 8/7/21. So, I had to speak to four different FedEx representatives over the course of 2 days in order to finally speak to a FedEx representative who was actually competent and who actually took the time to do their job. The first FedEx representative that I spoke with hung the phone up on me and she was clearly incompetent, and she gave me wrong information.

    The second FedEx representative that I spoke with also did not resolve my issue. The third FedEx representative that I spoke with blatantly lied to me and she also gave me wrong information. It was only after calling 4 times over the course of 21 hours that I finally discovered what was really going on with my package. This is a horrible way to treat customers and all around just incompetent and unprofessional service. Though this is always how it goes when calling FedEx about any issue.

    You will be told different information every time you call, and FedEx will blatantly lie to you without any hesitation or conscience. This is not even the first time over the past year I have been lied to and misinformed by FedEx representatives. This is one shady business with no morals whatsoever. FedEx also outsources all of their calls outside of the U.S. as well, so sometimes you are unable to speak to a FedEx representative who speaks English well enough to assist English speaking customers.

    If FedEx is going to outsource all of their calls outside of the U.S., then they need to ensure that the people taking the calls can adequately speak the English language in order to assist English speaking customers. Though it is apparent that FedEx doesn’t care about this, nor do they care at all for their customers. FedEx customer service is a joke and I will never place an order which requires me to use FedEx again, as I will not use the services that FedEx offers again, what a joke!!!

    I waited a bit but figured since it was just down the road I'd wait at home. At 7:20 ish I get a shipping update notification. My package was marked undeliverable because the business location was closed. Logged at 6:29. I called the support line which was ultimately unhelpful. Not that I blame them, they were very understanding even though I was on the verge of losing my cool (again important package). They tell me the driver noted the business was closed.

    I have had the most issues with FedEx. First off, good luck getting your package on the day you are suppose to receive it. On numerous occasions when they would drop off a package We might get a notification via text but I guess pushing the button on the doorbell is too complicated because it is something they don't seem to know how to do. If you have a package that required a signature good luck with that too. Usually it is just dropped off on the porch also and no signature. The latest one was with a custom barrel that was about $1600.00. No signature even though the company sent it out that way.

    Presently I have a package that I was notified was out for delivery on the 21st. It too was a no show. Then I get a text saying due to operational Errors it would be delivered on the 22nd. Still a no show. Then today the 23rd I get another text saying due to operation errors my package is scheduled for 7/22 which is yesterday. In short FedEx not good.

I know Cabelas ships fedex so I have stopped buying from them, because I asked to have them ship UPS or even USPS and they refused.

    You would think these big corporations would tell FedEx to be quicker or they’d go with someone else. It is 2021 if you can’t get a product from California to New York in 4 days you are doing something wrong. Fed Ex is worthless and I do not buy products from any company that ships with them.

    If a package is ever delivered when FedEx says it's going to be delivered I'm going to fall over and have a stroke. This company is so unprofessional and they lie about virtually everything that has to do with a shipment. From the promise date is supposed to be delivered, to the fake attempt to deliver which happens often. I have cameras outside my house and would see a FedEx driver pull up. They don't yet claim they did. That's just another excuse for terrible service. I've told every vendor I do business with on the East Coast to never use FedEx again when they send to me.

    I kept receiving notifications that my order would be delivered by the end of the day only to see a status change of pending around 5 pm. I called after it happened 3 times and started an investigation. I received a couple more messages saying that my delivery would be arriving by the end of the day only to have the status changed yet again. I called again and was told they cancelled my investigation. When I asked why they told me they would call back and never did. I finally called the company and placed another order that they said would be expedited. Now I'm up to 7 deliveries that have been scheduled only to be changed at the end of the day. I still don't have either order. The worst part about it is that a signature is required for this delivery so now I have 7 days and counting of arranging my schedule to make sure I'm home all day. UPS is so much better. I will always avoid FedEx from now on.

    I shall NEVER use Fedex again if I have other options: I ordered 3 ceramic pieces in a month, ALL 3 were delivered broken! Why? The Fedex delivery clerk is a "Thrower", he toss all parcels, boxes, packages from the curbside across the lawn to the front step, YES, even boxes, I witness it with my own eyes and confronted him about it, I saw him did exactly the same today and decided to leave a review for I contacted the Fedex main office regarding the issue, after a month, the same clerk's behavior never changed. To me, this reflects Fedex management's disregard for the welfare of the clients, whom trusted and paid for Fedex's services. What a shameful company.

    We have used FedEx for near on 8 years and have decided to leave them. They leave packages at our door and our customer doors and falsely state they have seen the person; or they do not ring the bell and the clients have no idea the package is there. Several packages have gone missing and they refuse to compensate claiming the driver "saw someone home", when we have proven beyond doubt this is false. They then state they are looking into it and actually do not question the drivers or their contractors to identify which ones are falsifying the delivery dockets.

    We're tired of being presumed liars, while their contractors and drivers are presumed innocent - even when we prove they are falsifying documents. We even had FedEx state with certainty the driver saw the person through the window and would not stand behind the claim - even though the customer had moved from the premises 2 days earlier and was in another city - the location was vacant.

    Ordered a different pair of shoes that got delivered. I guess with so many parcels moving around some are going to get lost or stolen.

    Original Review: July 13, 2021

    On 2 separate occasions my package stops somewhere in the middle of the shipping process and then the contents of the package could not be located. Now a third time there’s a exception and label is missing/unreadable and the package has not moved for more than a day. I call customer service and they just tell me it should be delivered in two days. It won’t be just like the other times and they won’t reach out. I’ll have to call them again and they will give me the same apology. How about you pay the employees a little better so they don’t steal shoes to sell them. Or if you don’t want to pay your employees you use that money to better track packages or set up security cameras so employees can’t steal. It should be instant catch if something is lost or not moving through the system and it should be dealt with right away.

    Eight times in the last year or so we have ordered products that are shipped by Fedex from Florida to our residence in Ohio. Every single time I track our shipment on their app and every single time the shipment is late (a week late!). This time the tracking stopped sending updates and is now 3 days late "par for the course!" I called FedEx customer service to get assistance and had to deal with the most awful virtual assistant who hangs up on you without any recourse after a simple question is answered.

    After a long bout of arguing with this so called virtual assistant I was finally put in touch with a human. After explaining my issue and being put on hold for a few minutes I was told she can do nothing to help, I asked if I could make a complaint because this happens regularly? I was put on hold again and told once again they couldn't help me. This is the absolute worst shipping company I've ever dealt with over my 50 years... What to do?

My house was built in the 60s and I’ve lived in it for 21 yrs., my address is registered with 911 and US post office. I’ve never had trouble getting deliveries from any carrier much less have I ever had a package returned stating invalid address.

    I called 3 days ago to verify my address and gave them directions along with my cell number and I have yet to receive my packages. They have not called me back like they were supposed to yet I’ve called them 4 times. All they say is sorry for the inconvenience and would you like to pick it up???? Really FedEx??? I paid you to deliver it. If I operated my business this way I wouldn’t have a business. Maybe this will happen to them as I won’t be ordering anything if it’s shipped through them ever again.

They refused to tell where and refused to transfer me to someone in the US. After they hung up on me twice. I looked up FEDEX in US. I already knew their headquarters was in Nashville. So I called the only US Customer Service number I could find and I got a man in the Freight Department. He was nice, signed me up for text alerts and told me that the package would not be delivered until 6/28/2021. So on the 26th I was not home (my mom is dying and I help take care of her).

    I received a text from FEDEX that said I missed my delivery. I never received the text that told me it was out for delivery on about when it would be delivered as promised. So on the 27th I was home all day. My cousin sent me something and it was shipped through FEDEX. She sent me a message saying I had a delivery. I checked and I did. It was a really big box. There are 5 steps on the stairs that lead up to my deck. The FEDEX delivery person shoved it up the stairs. Where it was sitting no one could go up or down the stairs. I have a lab_pit bull mix that barks anytime anyone steps on that porch. She never barked. No one ever knocked on the door. So if you don't come up on the porch and knock on the door how are you going to get my signature. I got another text saying I missed my delivery.

    This morning 6/28/2021 was the FIRST TIME I received the text that it is out for delivery. I have a sign on the front of my house that says "FEDEX IDIOT I AM HOME. BANG ON THE WOOD DOOR BECAUSE I WILL BE IN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE." Who knows maybe I will actually get the package now. I will never use this awful service again. I am putting what happened all over the internet. There is more that has happened but I am not going through all of it. I was transferred out of the US to El Salvador where they speak English.

Frustrated, we called for a third time. The man we spoke with apologized and told us that Shaws wouldn't accept packages on that size and wasn't an option. We asked how we could get our package.. He said he'd have it delivered the next day after 5pm when we'd be home. I asked for a confirmation by text or email while we were on the phone which he refused to do.

    We hung up and called a fourth time.. When the fourth person couldn't help, we asked for a supervisor which was no better than the last four people.

    As I was sending a valuable and much needed item, a very small package, I shelled out $ to use FedEx rather than the USPS. Big mistake. 1. On the printed receipt, the delivery date was a full week from send date, already longer than the 1-5 business days you are told. 2. Package failed to arrive on that date. 3. Online Tracking info showed nothing after initial FedEx receiving center near my location, one day after sent — so nothing for 9 days.

    4. Over the course of 4 phone calls by me and 1 from the intended recipient, customer service reps told us a range of contradictory things, all uninformative and unhelpful. For example: that the address abbreviation was wrong (it wasn’t, and had been generated by the computer at the fedex location where I mailed the package, not by me); that they would investigate and call us back (they didn’t); that there was no investigation request on the file, just an “address correction” request (Kafkaesque); that investigations are not done after this much time, that the recipient had to file a claim; that the sender had to file the claim...

    5. As I was attempting to file the insurance claim, I was jumped to the tracking page, which now showed the package at a new fedex location in the recipient’s home state — hallelujah! — with the delivery date as the very next day. 6. Package was not delivered. New date is now listed. IF the package arrives in that date, the total delivery time will have been two weeks.

    My humble opinion and I believe the following: I WILL NEVERRRR use Fedex again, hopefully a more reliable Amazon takes them over some day. Fedex suppose to deliver a package by 12 pm. I do text updates and get a text at 124PM saying the package will be here by 12PM. How idiotic and useless is that! I had a delivery two weeks ago that was a day late and needed to be kept refrigerator so it was no good had to be sent back and now getting it again. Its a must signature and still waiting. This company is a disgrace.

    I called spoke to representatives and no one can get me answers when package will be delivered and I see why the company is a disgrace when they have bad attitudes at the customer advocates office. I spoke to Angie who should be fired. Then I spoke to Priscilla who said dispatch can speak to him through his phone contrary to what Angie had said earlier that they don't have phones to communicate. They only have a device to send messages. What a HORRIBLE COMPANY customer service, tracking, slow delivery, etc. Spoke to Grace on Facebook was no help. Spoke to Jena customer service was no help.

    Everything I order from a certain company that uses Fed Ex as their shipping needs Fed Ex keeps denying my package promising it will come by a certain date when it doesn't especially when needed by a certain date. My recent one said definitely by yesterday end of day and no package. Still stuck at last destination. And now saying shipment pending. And last time this happened I had to wait another week to get my important package. And whenever you call customer service it's a miracle if you get them on the phone.

I yelled from my door that he was and said I should shut my racist mouth. He ran into his truck, turned up his music and raced off even faster than before. I called the customer service but she claimed without a tracking number, she couldn't identify the driver. I told her I had the address and time but she didn't care to try to figure it out.

    FedEx has been very unreliable. Every time something ships via them I'm nervous. For example two shipments from the same company disappeared after departed status and the same exact spot Indianapolis. Where do these packages go? I am on the second try of the same product which both times ended up out of stock when I wanted my order reshipped. The seller let me know three months later it was again available. Now it's lost again. How can I trust a company that continues to lose packages?

    Another example is a perishable item sent to Atlanta shipped two day. It was loaded on the truck four times before it was delivered. I was told that when the driver quits for the day packages are left on the truck for the next day. That meant my package was in the back?? Not sure. Anyway after 8 days it arrived spoiled. Both of my shipments that disappeared were also perishable. Other items may take longer but it is less annoying when they might show up spoiled or not at all.

    My wife and I, 71 & 72 respectively, are both handicapped so we order from Chewy, this by no means reflects on Chewy. Unfortunately Chewy uses Fedex as their delivery service. While we were out I received an email stating our order had been delivered. There was no order waiting when we arrived home and no door tag. We called fedex and explained the situation to them. They had delivered the package to the wrong address roughly 2 blocks away. Their suggestion “since it’s so close why don’t you go and pick up the package yourself.” I explained that we are handicapped and that’s why we have our pet supplies delivered.

    Their reply “don’t you have anyone who can help you?” I replied, "We had just moved to the area and really don’t know anyone yet." Their reply “it would be an inconvenience at this time to send the driver back out since he’s left the area.” In what world is it an inconvenience for the driver, who didn’t do his job correctly, but not an inconvenience for my wife and myself. I was given a case number and told I’d be contacted in a couple hours. Fast forward 24 hours, no phone call or follow up. I called back only to find out the case had been closed because the fedex driver could not locate the missing package. How could he not locate the package? We gave them the address to which they wrongly delivered it. Their solution “we should contact Chewy for a replacement or a refund.”

    We investigated deeper and found that although the trucks belong to fedex the drivers are hired through a third party, Allied, and have nothing to do with fedex, they just drive. We have only been at our home for 45 days, upon first viewing the house our GPS brought us right to the house. I would think the GPS used by the drivers would be far superior to the GPS on my phone yet they still delivered to the wrong address. Fedex refuses to accept any fault and expects us or Chewy to assume responsibility for their lackluster service. We have had three deliveries to our new home, one from UPS, delivered correctly and two from fedex both to the wrong address. We will never, under any circumstances, use fedex as a delivery service and suggest anyone else do the same.

    I have items delivered to me on a weekly basis. I also have gifts shipped to friends and family on a regular basis and just recently shipped my mother a gift of flowers with basket for Mother's Day. I was shocked at the condition of the package when it arrived to her home. She took lots of photos of the box that clearly stated the item was fragile and to keep the box right side up. Unfortunately, it would appear that the FedEx employees loading the truck and/or delivering the box are illiterate. They clearly had piled heavier boxes on top because the box was crushed. It was clearly loaded or deliver upside down because the contents were all over the place. The basket was upside down, the green foam was floating in the box and the flowers were destroyed. However, this is not the first issue I've had with FedEx and will avoid them at all costs if I can help it.

    I didn't realize the vendor I used for the flowers used FedEx, otherwise I would have gone with UPS or even USPS, at this point. I had another experience where FedEx delivered a rug and propped it under the awning outside of my porch and cracked the soffit under the awning because they jammed it in there. I complained to the local FedEx department and a thug arrived at my door within a couple of days, essentially threatening me to drop my complaint with corporate. These people are unprofessional and they don't care about customer service. It all starts at the top, in my opinion, and I continue to see flagrant examples of abuse and simply not caring about their customers. Avoid FedEx if you can at all help it. UPS is far superior in service and I'd even put USPS second, although they're also pretty bad, but it's better than FedEx.

Fedex Ground is about the same as Fedex smartpost and they both will take about 10 days longer to be delivered to you than their estimated delivery date.

Our driveway is perfectly clear, and has ample room for trucks much larger to turn around. There is no excuse for this crap, and your pathetic promise of “you’ll receive a call back within 24 hours” was clearly something else you couldn’t deliver on!!!

    I live in Southern California, where there is no shortage of FedEx stations, I live within 20 mins of at least 4, including that which my packages usually depart from. Despite this, I have had consistent issues and disappointment with the ability of FedEx to deliver packages with accuracy or even remotely within the predicted timeframe (Even over the last couple of years).

    I have, on countless occasions, had "Failed Delivery Attempts" when I am home with no sign of a delivery attempt, no notice, no knock on door, no phone call, etc. I have also had packages go from local delivery stations to towns several hours away and then back. Furthermore, I have on a select occasion, had a package which originated in my locale, be shipped to another state (MS), get stranded there for a few days, then eventually get rerouted back to CA, after calling to determine where the package was 1-2 days after the initial delivery date had passed and the only update to the status was "Delivery Exception".

    Even worse, on the rare occasion I do receive a package, and I am present to witness the delivery, more often than not, regardless of handling instructions on the box, packages simply get dropped or tossed on my doorstep or over my porch fence. Not only do these seem to be issues with the general function of the delivery/sort stations which miscommunicate, mishandle, or outright lose products, but a recurring issue with, what I can only assume, is a lack of commitment and effort from delivery personnel and enforcement of delivery quality and timeliness. I am generally understanding of standard delays and other potential interruptions to deliveries, but the regularity and redundant nature of the same or worsening issues time and time again is exhausting when it comes to FedEx.

Again after one more expediting it reached France again and then moved to Delhi. Then it moved to Kolkata and was not moving for 3 days from their Kolkata office. Finally it was delivered after 10 days and after several phone calls and emails.

    I ship for my business using a 3rd party to purchase discounted FedEx shipping labels. This is common practice, as 3rd party businesses have contracted lower rates than purchasing directly from FedEx. I always use 3rd party fedex companies to save money with no problem. One day in January 2021, I shipped 4 large packages and had them picked up by FedEx, who scanned and picked up no problem. A few days later I check tracking, and there's a red fraud flag on those 4 packages. I called FedEx and was transferred, given the runaround, etc. Finally at the end of FEBRUARY (!) when none of the packages ever made it to my customers, they finally gave me their "solution".

    Apparently, this 3rd party shipper with whom fedex has a contract, did not pay their fedex bill. So my 4 packages are being held in their Fraud warehouse until I pay FedEx $907 for the 4 packages to be delivered back to me. FedEx is holding my packages, not delivering to recipients, until I PAY $907, aka they're holding my packages ransom because THEIR contracted 3rd party business, didn't pay THEIR bill, and just disappeared. So their legal department decided to charge me (a small business of literally just me) FULL, EXPRESS RATE, to send packages back to ME. Ransom. Oh and I have 60 days or they'll chuck 'em.

    I escalated to a supervisor, same answer. Pay $907. I called their corporate office, told them the story, emailed him details. A week later, I was told it was sent to "legal" and that I need to pay what they told me. I am LIVID and will NEVER use Fedex again, EVER. But I also want my packages back. I make furniture from wine crates and these customers never received their custom furniture pieces. I have since rebuilt their orders or refunded, whichever they preferred, and my customers were understanding and equally as shocked as I was from Fedex's response/"solution". I have lost time, money, product, resources,, and patience. I want to take legal action against Fedex because this is completely unacceptable, unprofessional, and unreasonable! Avoid Fedex!

Like I've stated before, I paid for OVERNIGHT. All they keep saying is a new date every day it doesn't come! Now if I lose my job because of them then what? That's the whole reason of the package being here in 1 day. I ordered a part so my car works again. Could only get the part online. Otherwise I would have gotten it at a local auto store. Why would fedex even let someone pay for overnight when they clearly know they can't fulfill the agreement? This company NEEDS to be shut down and let Ups expand and take over.

Excuses for lazy unorganized garbage company to take people's money and not do what they promised! Million negative stars!!!!

It's now been a week since I ordered the part and 5 days since FedEx has had the part. It went from Flint, Michigan to Memphis, TN, then back to Flint and has just been sitting there for 2 days! I PAID $250 for this to come in 24 HOURS!!!

Can't believe this company. And if I didn't complain these people would actually steal my $250 and not say anything. Ground shipping my package would have only costed like 60 or 70 bucks.

The package was delivered on 2/17/21. I was constantly contacting FedEx regarding this package. I found the employees is be either rude, have a "I don't care" attitude, or they out and out lied to me. What do I have to say to the employees who lied to me?

If you are going to blame the weather, you need to make sure there is a storm either where the package was mailed from, or the route it will be traveling along, or the destination.

    Using USPS Priority Mail, I mailed several packages to the same state on the same day I mailed the 2-Day FedEx package and USPS delivered them about a week before the FedEx 2-Day package. The reason for this was because there was no storm where I live, or the traveling route, or the destination. There is an increase in cost to mail a package that is supposedly guaranteed to be delivered by a certain day. Well let me educate you if you think for one second FedEx will back their guarantee. FedEx WILL NOT HONOR their GUARANTEE. Their gain is YOUR LOSS. Their reason - THEY DO NOT DO REFUNDS FOR ANY REASON - PERIOD.

    Fedex decided to deliver my order a few streets over and whoever has received my items has never returned them. 50 calls between Fedex and Adidas, they both made me go through so much of an ordeal just to have to file a BBB and an AG complaint to get my $67.42 back. I googled and saw this thread with so many experiencing the same issues between Adidas and Fedex. Fedex has to be the most unorganized shipping company. I was supposed to receive (3) packages on 02/06/2021. However, none of the packages were received and noting on my camera to show anyone making a delivery.

    Called Adidas and they have the same notification that I received via email that my packages was allegedly delivered at 5:27pm. The rep told me to give it 48 hours. According to him, sometimes Fedex drivers marks an item delivered 'before' they actually make the delivery. I thought that was absurd, but this was what the guy told me.

    I call Fedex and they explain that they need to open a case and do a trace. That Monday, I called the local fulfillment Fedex in my town, because I've had tons of problems with Fedex. Either they would leave my package in the driveway while the gate was open, so anyone walking by could just walk right up and steal my package. They would also list the "driveway" as my front door. Don't ask me how, but I caught it twice and spoke to the local fulfillment center, because that's a huge issue.

    So when I spoke with the supervisor, he said he'd need to talk to the delivery person, because it was a subcontractor. When the Fedex fulfillment center followed up with me, they said the subcontractor said they delivered the package, so it was my word against theirs, but they told me to follow up on the trace and to file a missing package claim.

    Tons more calls later, I spoke with a trace manager that explained my initial trace claim was never opened, because they crossed my case with someone with the last name of "Daisy", but my packages were indeed misdelivered according to him. He stated that they had been delivered a few streets over and not to worry he was going to update the case. The call dropped and of course I didn't get him back and didn't get his name.

    I called back and got someone in Fedex customer service who told me that I could not speak to the trace department, but he could see that my packages has been misdelivered. I asked him if he could supply with those details, so that I could get my money back from Adidas. He stated that he would email me the information. He never did.

    I ended up filing a Better Business Bureau and an Attorney General complaint, which Adidas finally agreed that my package had been lost in transit and they were going to refund me. I'm done with buying directly from Adidas after this ordeal. 50 calls between both companies. I should have just went to file the BBB and AG complaints. It's ridiculous that so many have to exert so much energy just to get their money back. Fedex is so unorganized.

    I'm accustomed to the marginally poor delivery service, but this case calls for a special accolade, because they have taken idiocy to new heights. We have a 20 pound package that is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. It requires a signature. We won't be here. We WILL be here the following day. I used their "Delivery Manager" to reschedule for one day later. They wanted to charge me for the privilege!

    So, without rescheduling, here's what happens... The driver loads his truck tomorrow with an extra 20 pounds. He then drives to my house, carries 20 pounds to my door, finds us not home, carries the 20 pounds back to his truck, drives off, unloads the truck that night. The following day, he loads 20 pounds into his truck, drives to my house, carts to package to my door again, and finally delivers it.

    In a nutshell, they want to CHARGE ME for an act that will reduce the amount of time and effort one of their drivers will be compelled to perform and make life simpler for everyone around. Are you joking? In one brilliant business decision, they have (1) increased the driver's workload, (2) pissed off a customer, (3) increased their cost of doing business and (4) complicated everyone's life. Duh!!!

Then the 26th rolls around and I get another out for delivery notification just to have it rescheduled again! I called customer service and they promised and guaranteed me that the package will be here Today the 27th, and guess what? The package was rescheduled once again for the 2nd for some reason. I'm not sure what the point of 2-day shipping is with FedEx if my package doesn't come. I have to add that I've received shipments from UPS that departed from California, Texas, and Kansas and all my packages came within 3 days without paying for the faster shipping.

    I'm not sure what is wrong, but it's odd to me that my package was rescheduled on 3 different days, and there is no problem/reason listed for the delay when the customer service agent looked at the history. 2-day shipping and my package is currently 4 days late, and now is scheduled to be 7 days late! The best part is my package has been sent out for delivery in my area 3 times and for some reason, the driver decided not to deliver 4 days in a row!!!! I am not pleased, and this is not making me any more likely to ever ship FedEx when all my UPS shipments come on time along with being delivered when they are out for delivery!!!!

    This is especially true since 2-day shipping also costs more than regular shipping! What is the postal service? FedEx customer service called me back to tell me that the package was scanned on the truck yesterday and today, but both times the package was taken off of the truck for no reason since it was supposed to be delivered. The only way they could help was to say they are going to try to get it quicker than the 7-day late date that the shipment is currently scheduled for. I never had customer service tell me I'm right that this shouldn't happen while confirming 2-day shipping costs more, but didn't offer any resolution or compensation besides that they are working with the facility to try to get it out sooner.

    Updated just now. Worst service EVER. FedEx customer service is dismal at best. They could care less about you. They have outsourced their customer service to the obvious low bidder who will tell you that they are trained.... trained to brush you off. If you do have a problem with your shipment...it's your fault for selecting the shipping method you did. What I was unaware of was their economy service gives FedEx the option to deliver themselves or pass it to USPS. My package arrived at my local hub, and then got shipped out of my state to be dropped off at a USPS facility where it got lost in the shuffle. They could have at least dropped it at a local USPS facility. So what was supposed to be 5 to 7 day delivery, took nearly a month to get my package. It is very clear that if you do not use the most expensive method, THEY DON'T CARE. Wish I could rate 0 star.

    FedEx customer service has severely plummeted. I was notified a package was delivered to my home. I searched my camera footage and no FEDEX personnel had been to my house. I attempted to contact FEDEX immediately. Their customer service is a joke. It took me two hours to even get to a message that even made any sense. One of the first options should be if you have a problem with a delivery. I called the corporate number only to be told to call back after 8pm. I’m very sad to see the decline in customer service. Everyone practically has cameras so why these drivers don’t take their jobs more seriously is beyond me.

    I have had several packages within a year that have disappeared! They were supposed to be smart post. That means they are delivered to post office for last mile. They say out on FedEx truck for delivery then say delivered. I use their virtual site on FedEx it says post office delivered it. I contact post office they say they never received it! Don’t know what is going on but someone needs to be held accountable!

    DON'T USE FEDEX. Its infrastructure has collapsing due to bad weather & overbearing of COVID deliveries. 4 days to receive time sensitive overnight delivery, within an hour returned for shipment at FX office, and still not arrived!! 5 days later with NO SCHEDULED DELIVERY DATE AT THIS TIME!! THAT IS 9 DAYS AND STILL NOT ARRIVED, Why isn't anyone talking about this???

    Do not knowingly ship anything that needs to come through this facility. Driver returned my package to facility and stated there was no one to accept delivery. 3 supervisor stated that a signature was not requires. Package went out for delivery again the next day and was still not delivered dye to the driver already returned to the facility and it would go out again the third day. Dispatch at that facility advised me driver was coming back to make the delivery NEVER HAPPENED

    Save yourself the time and ship with UPS or USPS. Fedex lies and is extremely undependable

    On 2/15/21 I ordered a new phone through my cellular carrier. Due to severe weather conditions in the shipping state, the label was not received by Fedex until 2/18/21, it was overnight delivery option. It is now 2/23 and I have yet to receive my package. On 2/18 I received an email from Fedex stating my package will be delivered by 2/22 by 8 pm. I waited and did not get it. 2/23 I received yet another email stating I should receive my package that day by the latest, 8 pm, at 735p.m. I still did not have anything. This is a package I have to sign for so sitting at home for days and days is asking way too much from people. I called Fedex customer service 3 times and went through the entire automated phone jargon only to be hung up without speaking to a representative every time. Finally, on the 4th try I was able to speak to a live person.

    The person I spoke with was nice at first, until I asked a question. That was when he became rude and repetitive. I asked him why the package was delayed so long when it was picked up on the 18th. He said it was the weather. I asked him why I received an email stating I should have gotten it on the 22nd he had the same answer. I asked why the email I got today said my package will arrive by 8 pm that night just as the automated service did as well. His reply, "I don't know how more clear I can be due to the weather...." I understood the 1st time he said the weather delayed my package however I was still getting email updates on receiving it when I clearly was not. He could not answer me any differently.

    I also asked why Fedex did not update their system to show the proper tracking and he again gave me the same answer. So in all reality, my package was picked up by FedEx on 2/18/21 as an overnight delivery and due to weather, they cannot get it to me until 2/24/21, maybe! The representative could not narrow down the timing of the package so I have to take a day off from work as he stated it would arrive between 8am-8pm, so I can sign for it. The representative couldn't even be sure it would finally arrive on 2/24. This is the absolute most disgusting experience I have ever had with a delivery company. I hope and pray I will never have to deal with them again! This is why I ship all my packages with either USPS or UPS!

    I will never again use FedEx for any carrier/courier needs. This company has slowly dig itself into a hole that they will not come back from. They are so careless and negligent! How can they promise a delivery date on a overnight shipment and 10 days later still no delivery!- FedEx has been on the downhill for a while with extremely bad customer service, damaged and lost shipments, drivers stealing packages, etc., etc. Recently, the weather issues have made it worst but they can't continue to blame their flaws on the weather. Companies must diversify and not rely on just this carrier for their shipments needs. I wish Amazon would go full force into this area and take over FedEx business for good!

    I dropped a letter on February 12. It is now February 23 and not one FedEx employee can tell me where my package is. Every time I call I get different information. They say they will call back but NEVER do. I am EXTREMELY angry with their service. I will NEVER use FedEx again for anything. I would like to pick my package up at the local airport location however they will not let me do that either. I am perplexed as to what to do, this package contains VERY important, costly documents. If I could use negative stars, I would definitely be a -10!!!

    Talked twice to representative and told them I got a email saying my package left at my door. Not my door. They wont fix this or try to. Very unhelpful. These drivers drop stuff off everywhere and do not confirm it is at the correct address. I am tired to getting packages not mine and having to deliver them. Now when I expect a package and I get none. Drivers should be accountable for wrong deliveries.

    "Overnight" package scanned in Woodbridge Virginia at 10:36 a.m. on 18 February from a nearby Safeway store. Tried dropping off at their FedEx shipping store at 2910 Prince William Pkwy, Woodbridge, VA 22192 which was open and staffed, but doors locked and employees ignored me. The "overnight" package addressed to Daytona Beach, FL is still stuck in Memphis, TN as of 1130 p.m. on 22 February. Pitiful. No wonder their stock price has went down so rapidly. They can not be relied on to deliver packages in a timely manner. The FedEx virtual assistant adds further insult to their sullied reputation and incompetence.

    This is one of the worst customer service companies in the world. Ordered a small package under 1 lb. Cost me $10 to ship to California. Now it has been 8 days and still no pending delivery date. I have called twice and had the same generic answer given blaming it on the weather. Yet my son in Texas sent me a package 2 days on this Wednesday and I received it that same Saturday the same week. They are liars and offer no refund on my 2 day delivery fee. LIARS and untrustworthy to do business with.

    Updated on 08/17/2024: Resolved.

    Original Review: I have contacted the local Londonderry, NH office numerous times about this issue and it remains unresolved. Fedex repeatedly delivers our packages by dropping them in the snowbank either behind our mailbox or at the end of our driveway in the snow. There are people with disabilities who depend on reliable delivery services who cannot get to their packages that Fedex drops in the snow instead of delivering to the front door as instructed and expected.

    With a recent delivery, my husband happened to be taking a walk and saw the driver in front of our driveway getting ready to leave a 40 lb. package again in the snow at the bottom of the driveway. My husband told him they are supposed to bring the package to the front door and the driver said they have been told if there is snow on the driveway to leave packages at the bottom of the driveway and to not drive up the driveway. At my husband's request he did carry the package to the front door (rather than just driving up the driveway). However, my husband saw another package he had just left on the snowbank up the road for another neighbor - not even at their driveway!

    We have a long but flat and very navigable driveway. On this day there was just a light dusting of snow on the driveway, as there usually will be anytime in the winter even after plowing. So if they are telling their drivers to not drive up driveways if there is snow on the ground we will never have our packages properly delivered. If drivers are coming to these areas they should be comfortable and experienced driving on rural roads in NH and have vehicles appropriate for driving on rural NH roads This guy said he came up from Boston and had a box truck that did not seem to be handling the road very well (tires spinning).

    Fedex used to be a reliable service. Now for some reason they are hiring contractors who do not have the right vehicles or apparently the right skills to do the job properly. It is completely unacceptable to have Fedex deliver packages on snow banks all winter. It was a problem last year and it's a problem again this year. It is frankly surprising these days, when they are competing with Amazon's own delivery services, UPS, USPS, and others, that Fedex business practices and training of contracted drivers are designed to provide such unacceptably poor service. I wish Walmart and others would stop using Fedex until they revert back to their previous excellent standards of service.
