    My wife shipped 6 boxes from Mexico to Dallas 3 month ago and we received one all broken and 5 have been declared lost by FedEx, we have contacted just about everybody, even went to the corp, but nobody really helps, this were heirlooms priced up to 6K, and most likely, it must have been divided among the warehouse. They told us it was in customs, but tracking the packages they show up here, nearby and in customs, but they care very little and no one at fedex takes responsibility or even tries to get it thru customs or find them at the warehouse. ANY SUGGESTIONS????

    Don’t get your passport photos taken at a local FedEx Office. I paid an outrageous $18.50 – almost $20.00, for 2 crappy digital photos at my local FedEx Office (both of which are the same photo – 1 is normal, 1 is a cropped close -up). Walmart charges under $8.00 for 2 passport photos and has a dedicated photo booth. The FedEx Office had an employee with shaky hands holding a handheld camera who asked me to stand against a wall in a tiny crammed space between some computers and a copier.

    One of the pictures he took has half of a giant plaque in it that was on the wall next to me with instructions on how to use the copier. Then they added on a $2.50 fee for taking the picture....a fee they made sure to keep secret the 3 times I called them on the phone and asked about passport photos and the entire time I was in the store before they took the picture. And this was the Manager of the store who pulled this scam/bait-and-switch - not some low-level employee. They used no resources – no printer, no paper, no toner, no nothing, and put the 1 picture – which I got 2 pictures out of (1 cropped close up and one normal picture), onto my own USB device. $18.50 for that!?!? Walmart prints out 2 pictures for you on full color glossy photo paper for $8.00 out the door…. What a ripoff. I’ll never go to the local FedEx Office for anything again.

    Worst service and I would like to give zero rating. Express delivery to India took more than 2 weeks time. Even after 2 weeks, my family member has to go to the location and wait for 6 h for the pickup. They closed many FedEx locations permanently in India and have no phone number to contact except the customer service number which is very hard to connect. I am not going to use this service and would recommend people not waste their time and money. The customer service agents are rude and don't even have a reason for the delay. They simply said due to a local delivery delay in the location they can't issue the refund.

    It’s Monday at 2043 - I’ve been waiting for Fedex to pickup a package sitting by my garage door since Saturday. Box is 115 lbs - so I can’t move it. They said they showed up at 6pm today to pick it up but did not see it. It is a 4 foot long brown box with a fedex label on it right by the garage where I told them it would be… Also, I was sitting outside at 6pm playing with my dog-so they were obvious lying. Don’t use this company. I’m only using it because Wayfair sent me fedex label. Wayfair said they would send me a label from a different company if fedex was a no-show again tomorrow…

    Unbelievable the incompetence of FedEx... Ordered from a third-party seller on best buy... item shipped ok... Told Friday (today) delivery... Received word Wednesday it would be early so Thursday (yesterday) it would arrive.. Waited home all day.. No delivery.. Called CS.. They said Friday.. Ok then... Now because my buzzer is broken at the main entry doors I added everywhere I could that I needed a text or a call when he arrived to meet him at the door... Told CS also... Figured np right?

    So all day today I wait.. No delivery.. Call CS.. Am told they were here but the buzzer didn't work so he left. I said I had instructions to call or text as my buzzer is broken. Told suddenly drivers don't call or text upon arrival. At all. They are not issued phones nor use their own. So... I wasted 12 hours waiting Thursday, 9 hours Friday, not knowing I'd have no chance to get my delivery anyway... and there were multiple chances for FedEx to inform me drivers can't, don't, or won't ever call...even if there's a situation a customer has that absolutely requires it. But not once was I told no call or text is possible.

    So now I have to pick it up and since my car was written off in an accident I will have to use transit an hour each way to a depot. I will never order from any business that uses FedEx again. FedEx should be ashamed at how pathetically incompetent they have appeared in my experience with them. I will be notifying the company I purchased from and also the BBB about them engaging a deliberate policy of no call or text capable delivery drivers. No phone availability inevitably results in an inability to provide the service they profess to offer.

    I truly dislike FedEx. I have an account with them and inside my account I have instructions to deliver all packages to "front door". However, they like to leave all my packages, big and small, by the street, which is 90 feet or more away from my front door??? Why would they do that? I wonder why FedEx even has the option for delivery instructions inside one's own account if they "do not" pay attention to the instructions? Packages can get stolen that far from my front door, and have been! I used to work for UPS and they have instructions to follow the customer's requests, something FedEx doesn't do. Highly disappointed with the FedEx company and do not recommend them.

    I have had 2 incidents of my packages being delivered to the wrong addresses. The first I actually watched them deliver my package to my neighbors and then got a notification that my package was delivered and this second time I got a notification my package was delivered and when I seen the photo seen it was not my house it was delivered to. The worst part is is that I have 2 very visible places to see my 911 house number. One on my house and one on a very large sign in my front yard. I called about the second package and had to use a automated service to file my complaint and now I am waiting an investigation. Which more likely will lead to nothing. So I called the company where I ordered my product and they are sending me a new one to replace the one the incompetent people at FedEx lost.

Over the course of 4 days, the website tracking said a delayed update was pending so, an internal investigation was opened. Oddly on the 5th day, the website indicated the package was delivered on the original date 10/1 @12:43 pm. Here's the catch, my front door is monitored 24/7 and time stamped. No FedEx Truck, No Package, No One person was at my door. So how was my package delivered and left at my door? I will never use/trust this service again! They Lied!

    I purchased a two-day express delivery for a very small object on Friday 9/9 to be delivered by the end of the day Sunday 9/11. The package did not reach its destination (from FL to VA) until Wednesday. 5 days. I paid 37.00 for two-day service. When I asked for a refund, I was basically told "too bad" by the FedEx representative that sold it to me and also by the Fedex employee on the phone just now at the complaint department. So, I am out 37.00 for something I could have paid 3.50 for that would have gotten there faster. This is theft!!! Misrepresentation and theft! The employee said that they only offer refunds to the 200.00 overnight packages. So, they lie, they cheat and they steal. Just my experience.

Not only did they “bandage” up my first order and delivered it after they damaged it, but my replacement was supposed to be delivered 2 days ago and I still don’t have it. When I called customer service, I was told that I would receive a call from management and of course, I received no call.

    I can't say how disappointed I am now with FedEx. Prior to COVID I always considered FedEx to be my Gold Standard, the one I would pay extra for if I needed to get something to someone on time or receive it in a timely manner. Lately however, it seems that FedEx will hire just about anyone to be a delivery driver (Signs in front of the Menomonee Falls facility in Wisconsin are for 'Drive Through Interviews', ALL DAY!), and there seems to be zero repercussions when the drivers outright lie.

    Here are 3 different examples in the last 30 days. Package is on the truck for delivery, at the end of the day get an 'exception notification'. Driver states recipient isn't home to sign, will attempt tomorrow. Contacted FedEx, they agree, package does not require a signature and should have been left, driver lied (and never attempted see camera note on the next one). Next package, was on truck for deliver, at the end of the day, exception notification. Delivery 'Attempted?' However the tell tale that they were lying again was no door tag (ohh and FedEx, I think you are forgetting how many people now have cameras and can easily tell if you 'attempted' delivery which you didn't). Contacted FedEx again, they agree, driver is lying and did not attempt delivery, would have to have left a door tag if they did.

    Again this week, package on truck for delivery, end of the day, exception notification. New one, Incorrect Address. OMG here we go again. Contact FedEx, initially they say they can't even re-attempt to deliver due to the Incorrect Address code, only hold at a FedEx facility or send back to originator. First, I ask if the address of the package matches my address, reluctantly, customer service says it does and the driver LIED again! Then we picked a local Walgreens to hold it at the next day. Well isn't it my luck, its on the truck for delivery the next day and the driver misses that stop and it heads back to the warehouse AGAIN.

    Customer Service at this point is useless, they can't even make up an excuse anymore, the guy I talked to said he agreed looking at the delivery that they are pretty much incompetent at this point. So at this point, I will use any other shipper but FedEx, it's incredibly disappointing to see how far down they have come from their pre-COVID performance. This kind of thing will sink a company whose sole purpose in life is to get things to their destination on time.

The status indicated on the website falsely claims that "Intimation was sent on 19th" and that "it was mutually agreed to return the consignment to Sender on 22-Sep-22". None of it true. There is no record of communication from TNT/FedEx to us nor any proof that we had agreed for the return of the item to sender.

    I have had an ongoing issue with FedEx. We live at the end of a right-of-way - a long, but easily traversable driveway, which is actually our neighbor's property. Everything is level and there is plenty of room for most trucks to turn around easily. From there it is only a 15' walk to our front door. I'm not sure if it is one driver or several who consistently dump our packages in the neighbor's yard, in clear view of the road so that anyone can grab them. We've also had food and frozen food left in the sun because they were never delivered to our doorstep and we found them too late. UPS and USPS always manage to find my doorstep; it's only FedEx who employs lazy drivers who can just toss my packages out like trash. We've even almost run over them. I have complained several times, but the issue is never rectified.

    UPDATED 10/10/2022: This is a follow-up of my one star review sent a few weeks ago for my lost package. Claim was placed by a sympathetic CS rep. But, it was incorrectly placed. So, it was denied.. Now I have redone the claim and they are now not responding. My calls keep getting transferred from one person to the next, each with the same.. or no.. knowledge about the process. It seems this once iconic company has dissipated into the third world. Very disappointing.

    ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3 packages sent. 2 arrived. The third is missing. Sent to some distant location. What is so strange is their inability to track its location. The customer service is very 3rd rate. I doubt if I'll ever see it turn up. Putting in a claim is not too easy. UPS would have been a better choice. FedEx is definitely a poorly run company.

    In the last 2 or 3 months, FOUR deliveries have not arrived at our home, but in fact were delivered to neighbors, blocks away from our home. One was at least the same number as ours, if not the correct street. Another was blocks away with nothing anywhere close to our street address. Fortunately, these kind neighbors brought the deliveries to our house. It comes down to a person in a truck making the right delivery. I thought it would be useful if I could report that and his/her supervisor advise the person to pay more attention, but of course FEDEX does everything possible to block you from real contact with real people who work for the company that might be able to help. I ask all my vendors now to please use a company other than FEDEX. It's sad to see a once great company in the tank.

    I am submitting a formal complaint. I was scheduled to receive life-sustaining medication that is temperature sensitive today 9/21. Once I arrived home from work to see no box, I looked at my tracking that said "unable to deliver" at 3:18 according to your driver there was no one to receive my package. I live in an apartment building with the leasing office (open till 5) just next to the entrance and a call box with every resident's name on it (accessible 24/7). Additionally, my phone number is listed on the container to call with any issue due to the fact that it is life-sustaining, temperature-sensitive medication. Once I called your customer service they said the FedEx driver wasn't able to get into the gate, there is NO gate here. The rep then instructed me to go to the location, where drivers return undeliverable packages, between 830 and 9 to pick up in person.

    I arrived just before 8:30 and was turned away and told they were closed and they would not be able to give me my package. I am incredibly frustrated and disappointed in the lack of service. I then called customer service again as I was instructed by the person at the shipment center. That customer service agent proceeds to tell me that FedEx drivers aren't provided a phone, so if they don't want to use their personal device to contact the customer, they don't have to. This is unacceptable, especially transporting medication. It's literally life and death products, not a pair of jeans or shoes lost in the mail. The customer service was nonexistent and the lack of caring about a necessary medication is completely unacceptable. I am disappointed and disgusted with the treatment and FedEx as a whole.

    I have had the unfortunate experience of receiving around 6 packages from FedEx this year. Why anyone would willingly chose them, I will never know. Every single time the original delivery date given is never when the package arrives. There is always an "unforeseen delay" that pushes it back a day or a week. The packages that I receive usually contain $200-$600 worth of goods, so it isn't something I want to leave laying on my porch all day. I purposely make sure I or someone I trust is at my home the day of the delivery and every time it never arrives.

    I call the customer service number and the automated system tells me the same info on the site (the it is supposed to be here today but yet it shows in another state). The automated system then tells me that a real person will have no more information. FedEx needs to do better. It is literally the worst. I'd rather have my mail delivered by a turtle. Kidding but it would be nice if someone competent could run their site and upgrade their systems to accurately display the information.

    I have come to the point where I will never buy anything again from anyone who ships via FedEx. They have never gotten a delivery right. The most recent was an $1,200 electric scooter. I live in a condo community, but we all have porches and private entrances. I received delivery notification on Tuesday, but it never came. I filed a case with their virtual assistant and no one has contacted me. Turns out they delivered it to a different condo community in the area, which is on a completely different street, with different address numbers. I mean completely different. The delivery person was either illiterate or a complete moron, I don't know how he/she thought they were at the right place. Thank goodness for honest people who called our property manager about it and they sent our maintenance guy to go pick it up and bring it to me. Still haven't gotten any contact from FedEx on my case.

    Another time I ordered chairs. I had them shipped because I have a small car and would have had to make multiple trips. They delivered them 1/2 mile down the road from me. I found them because I walked around the neighborhood checking porches. Called FedEx to come get them and bring them to the right address. They said it would be a couple of days. It was a terrible snow day and the boxes were exposed so I ended up going and making multiple trips to get them home.

    Another time my package was lost in Chicago. It was souvenirs from a trip to New Orleans that I didn't want to carry home on the plane. The store promptly replaced the order. Then 5 MONTHS later FedEx delivers the original package which was so beat up and opened, and missing 90% of the contents. They should have been ashamed to deliver something like that. These are just a few examples, there are several more. I just don't get it, the following businesses have never had an issue making a delivery to my place; UPS, USPS, Amazon, Instacart, Grub Hub, Uber, etc. None of them have ever had an issue, yet FedEx has never had a successful delivery.

    Placed an order on Home Depot's website for 2 pet gates which are not available in any of the Home Depot stores. The total cost was $42.38 for both. I paid for the order with my PayPal account. So far, no problem. Home Depot gives my order to FedEx to make the delivery, and this was the beginning of a big headache for me because FedEx delivered my package, but they delivered it to the wrong house and would not take responsibility. I know they made the delivery because after several phone calls to FedEx customer service, one of their reps said to me "I checked your order and have confirmed that your package was delivered because the driver took a picture of the package at your front door". He said that "the picture clearly shows the package in front of a white screen door on a house that has some brick".

    I responded "my house does not have a screen door nor does it have any brick anywhere on my house so clearly the package was delivered to the wrong address" so I asked for a copy of the picture to hopefully find the house that my package was delivered to. I assumed the package was at least delivered to the right neighborhood. The rep stated that he could not send me a copy of the picture and just asked me to contact the shipper. I said the shipper has nothing to do with this issue but he didn't want to hear it.

    So I called Home Depot and then I was told to open a case with PayPal. Obviously no one wants to take responsibility for this issue which is understandable for Home Depot and PayPal because they did their part without a problem. It was FedEx that pretty much admitted that they delivered the package to the wrong house. By the way, I opened up investigation cases with all 3 companies which went nowhere. FedEx is entirely at fault here but they completely dismissed my issue without taking responsibility for their mistake. FedEx has no interest in customer satisfaction and does not stand behind their service. It appears they are now too big to care about their customers and the quality of the service they provide.

Every driver's scanner sends out a GPS location every time an item is scanned. They should be able to verify it was misdelivered and at the very least get an employee out to try and recover it for re-delivery. All I wanted was for FedEx to correct their mistake.

    Then the customer service rep tries to tell me the problem was that the shipping label was blank! What????

    DON'T USE THIS COMPANY FOR IMPORTANT… DON'T USE THIS COMPANY FOR IMPORTANT PAPERS UNLESS YOU HAVE TO! I would love to give this company a less than one review. We put a vacation hold on our address and lo and behold they still delivered the package. We took a screenshot of the vacation hold (thank goodness!) as after three days of waiting for them to do something they now say there is no vacation hold. The last person we dealt with about this issue (54 hours ago) said they would have the driver go back and pick it up. Never happened and she even gave us a confirmation number but did not put anything in the report!!! Just so you know the first two did confirm the vacation hold so not sure what has happened to it now. We now have lots of case numbers and no package.

    I recently opened an account with FEDEX for my small business. I’ve already received fraudulent charges to my small business bank account, one was $957.00. When I contacted FEDEX fraud department I was told I would have to wait 24 hours for a rep to call me, in the meantime they can not put my money back in my account. I do not recommend this company. I feel they should have done more to keep my account safe and secure!

    I ordered an item December 2021, unfortunately the seller chose FedEx to deliver the package. It never showed up and there was no way to track it except the statement "we showed it was delivered". Fast forward 2.5 months later and the farm manager from a large farm down the road called and said I had a package on his office's front porch. FedEx delivered it to the wrong place, then would not return it to the original sender without charging full price.

    Now I have another order coming and was disappointed to find it being sent by the seller via FedEx. I chose the option to pay extra on the FedEx website so it would be delivered between 5 and 8 pm as my wife would be home that date and time for the required signature. I received a text stating delivery was attempted at 1:45pm and no one was home. The driver went to the side door where there is no doorbell and didn't attempt to ring the one on the front door as my stepdaughter may have been home to sign.

    I called and spoke with someone from another country (service representative) who stated they would try again tomorrow. Again, I explained I paid the extra fee to chose a time window for delivery, but they obviously only use this a ploy to milk extra money out of the consumer. I have chosen to have it dropped at a FedEx drop point in town and will pick it up later if they manage to drop it off correctly. This will be after I have written a letter to the Ky Attorney General's office notifying them of this scam to rip off receiving customers by having them pay for a service that is non-existent. I can only imagine how many people have been taken advantage of by this company using this tactic. It bears further exploration by a prosecuting attorney.

    I had ordered a pick up from my home. I bought the shipping label online from their website (2 day mail). The day FEDEX was supposed to pick up the box with the shipping label I printed they did not show up. I called that late afternoon and was told that they could not come that day anymore but they would come the next day. I said I that I had a ordered a pick up with a 2 day delivery and that it was going to cost me $ 58.00 dollars and that I did not want to pay a penny more. The guy I spoke with said no problem. So the next day FEDEX came and picked up the box. But here is what happened someone took my label off the box and put an overnight label on for $ 137.00 dollars. I did not authorize this and to make a long story short they charged my credit card $ 137.00.

    I called and spoke to several people and no one cares. That was not the label i put on the box. I did not authorize the 137 dollars. I still have copy of my original label and emailed it to them with an explanation but no one cares. FEDEX is a scam! I will never use them again. No matter who I talked no one cares. They said that there is nothing they can do about it. FEDEX you are a scam!

    I use FedEx every now and then because sometimes they have the cheapest shipping costs. Well, this last time I used them I found out why. I dropped a package in one of their drop boxes in the neighborhood. By the way, these drop boxes are impossible to locate. The majority of the time they are nowhere near where they're supposed to be. I drove around a parking lot trying to find one, and the GPS brought me to a dumpster pad. The box ended up being on the other side of the lot. Another one I went to first wasn't even there! Yet there was a picture of it on Google Street view.

    I finally found the box, and the package was dropped off on a Saturday, with the next pickup being Monday. The buyer contacted me 4 days later because there had been no movement. Sure enough, the last information in tracking was that a label was made it was dropped off to FedEx on Saturday, but never scanned in. So I filled out a claim. The package finally began moving on the day it was supposed to be delivered. My claim was denied, understandably, but the package ended up being delivered a week late. Where's the accountability here? What if it was a time-sensitive package? Nobody cares anymore.

    Why have a tracking number if the info is never correct? I have a tracking number that tells me my package will be delivered on Tuesday, then on Monday evening, the package is "pending" and I get no info for two days, then the package arrives on Thursday. Just tell me the package is going to arrive on Thursday! This latest instance, I have a tracking number that tells me the package will be delivered on Sunday. Has said that for three days, but there had been no tracking update for three days. I call, clearly knowing that package isn't coming on Sunday, and I am told it was coming on Tuesday. So, they updated the tracking saying it was going to arrive early, it was that way for days, and then I have to call to find out that it's coming on Tuesday?!

    The person I got through to on the phone could update my tracing via email, but NOT on their website. So the customer service person had my current tracking info, but I didn't and couldn't get it via my tracking number. How does that make sense? Out of the last ten packages I've had delivered via FedEx, about 2 of them arrived on time based on their tracking numbers. The rest are three to four days past the delivery date of the tracking number. Not to mention the number of dented, bruised and broken things that have happened to my packages. They also have the worst automated phone system I've ever experienced in my life.

So since the 27th was on a Friday I gave them until the 29th for delivery, (end of day for FedEx is 8 pm EST) so since my shipper is CST I called them at 8:15 pm on the 29th, a very nice woman helped me out and the next day I got another post from FedEx stating I should have my delivery between 10:45 am and 12:15 pm on 08/31/22 but guess what no delivery, I called FedEx up just to find out where my box was, (it's been in Ellenwood, Ga. since the 29th according to the delivery schedule) but the call center said "it was not at the shipping department" so I asked "then where is it ?" They could not tell me. Now what kind of shipping company does not know where the product is at, I mean they have a bar code on the box and it should be scanned any time it moves, should it not????

    I have had several packages delivered over the years. I’ve lived at the same address for years. I use all delivery services and FedEx is by far the WORST. Why do they have a section for delivery instructions when the drivers don’t even pay attention to it. I have a package container on my porch directions say, "Please place my packages in container." No no that’s just too difficult. It’s either right in front of the door or today topped it right on the step to my porch. I watched him on my Ring just throw it and leave. Having no idea the contents you just throw someone’s packages. Are they really getting that lazy. Too lazy to care about customer quality. If I could pick my delivery service it would never be FedEx. They do have some decent delivery drivers but they are FEW and far apart. DO BETTER FEDEX.

    My wife and I joke all the time about who the carrier is and when, or if we'll get it. We have now lived in semi-rural North Florida about 4 miles out of town. UPS has yet to lose a package, the mail seems pretty reliable, but FedEx has lost 5 packages in shipping. When you track the packages the responses range from; "Your package seems to either be lost or misplaced," to "We are having troubles finding your package in delivery," to "Your package has been returned to the distribution center and will be attempted again (we're retired, have a ring doorbell, and are always working around the property, so we never miss a truck coming down our private drive)."

    Now I'm waiting on a package twice shipped from Samsung, and while it is due today there is almost zero chance it will arrive today, possibly not even tomorrow. The package will be damaged in some fashion, and the driver will be haggard from the relentless delivery schedule and expectation. I'm guessing any one of them would have gladly traded places with Tom Hanks for a little peace and quiet?

    Yes, I understand that working for UPS or FedEx is no day at the park, let alone a mail carrier. And while I seldom blame the driver (there is one driver that every time they come says, "I could not find your house" for the fifth time?). The blame falls squarely on FedEx for their delivery guarantee and posted dates. I did notice a recent change though when tracking, and that is in the verbiage. It now says "your expected delivery date is **/**/****." I give them 4 stars because of their drivers, and 2 stars for package delivery.

We have a bunch of condos behind us, but we are a house on a main street, beyond the driveway for the condos. The condos are 7746 and we are west of there at 7726. They returned the package because the driver said it didn't have a condo # on it. WE ARE NOT A CONDO. They do not even look at the address, they just sent it back.

    Twice I've had to file a police report for grand larceny due to the employees who work at FedEx. I had my computer stolen once, and received an empty box. The resent item was driven to my home, where the driver never left the truck, marked my item as delivered and drove away. Not once did they reach out to me from the time I reported it stolen. I reported while I watched the driver drive away from my house, as he never left the truck and was around the corner before I could even hit my front door. I received a call this morning. It's absolutely abhorrent that this rep would tell me they investigated the item and determined it was "lost". Don't use FedEx.

Another coming from China - Anchorage - Memphis, 4 days, then taking over 3 days to go 50 miles for delivery.

    I had a positive view of FedEx and remember their commercials as a start-up "When it absolutely, positively has to be there overnight." When I desperately needed that type of service, and FedEx completely failed. The 50 gram letter would have arrived faster with a normal postal service for $2. I had forgotten my driver's license when I left for a long trip to the USA. Lucky to have a great friend, he posted it already on Tuesday with a "Priority Service" of the Swiss Post which partners with FedEx, paying $85 for a "3-day priority" delivery. Swiss Post assured him it would arrive Thursday or Friday, so I could rent a car on Saturday. Following the tracking carefully, the shipment was passed off to FedEx at Charles de Gaulle airport on Thursday 03:46 AM. Certainly FedEx could then live up to their "absolutely, positively overnight" promise... What followed boggled my mind.

    Nothing came on Thursday or Friday. On Saturday it was not possible to rent the car. On the following Tuesday 08:46 the tracking claimed "26 July 2022 08:46 Consignment will be delivered UNITED STATES EASTERN". But still nothing arrived. On "26 July 2022 09:58 Incorrect address - please contact TNT Express UNITED STATES EASTERN" (TNT has been recently bought out by FedEx)." I called FedEx by phone and the agent said only "you are right, there is something strange about this shipment". She claimed the address was incorrect, but I confirmed that the address they had was exactly correct. She promised an agent would call within 24 hours. Nothing.

    24 hours later I called again: this time the agent claimed the tracking number indicated a shipment from "Belgium to Poland" and the letter had been rerouted for reshipment back to Europe. When I told her no agent had called in 24 hours, she said the time limit was actually 48 hours. I mentioned that Swiss Post had promised "3-day service", to which the agent said "they really should not promise that". I waited yet another day (now Thursday, 9 days after it was posted). Still no shipment, still no call from an agent investigating the case. Another call to FedEx, and again I was again told that the was "something strange" about the shipment. I again confirmed that the address was correct. The letter was finally delivered on Friday, a full 10 days after it was shipped, and by then I was by then 3000km away from my license. Another fine friend shipped it with UPS, which took the requisite 3 days to arrive there.

    There are several bottom lines here: (1) FedEx for $85 took as long as a normal air-mail letter for $2 (airmail Switzerland to USA takes 4-10 days to arrive); (2) FedEx could not figure out what the problem was, claiming the address was wrong (it was not) or that the shipment was mixed up with another one -- the agents were totally confused; (3) The agent who was supposed to investigate the case never bothered to respond, but rather I always had to contact them; (4) A refund would be in order, but FedEx's refund policy only applies for US domestic shipments. In short absolutely, positively abysmally poor, slow service. FedEx might claim that their partner Swiss Post was the problem, but their own tracking information proves that FedEx received the shipment after only 48 hours.

    Many such anecdotes are circulating on the internet. Trustpilot rates FedEx with a score of 1.3 out of 5.0 (TrustPilot no longer accepts reviews because FedEx has since refused to receive them). The word is that FedEx is overloaded and is not meeting its own goals or those of its clients (like Amazon). My advice is that you never rely on any FedEx promise or the information that their agents give you on the phone. Finally: use other shippers which promise less, but probably get your package to you faster in the end.

    The worst! I import from the UK to the US often and 99% of the time I use UPS, which has always been a good experience, sometimes a bit slow, but solid. The few times I've chosen FedEx were when I needed expedited service, and I paid extra for that. But each and every time I've done that FedEx not only doesn't deliver on time but the tracking info typically shows the package being held up in Memphis or another hub due to a "customs value discrepancy", which is FedEx's way of not having to reimburse you for their inefficiency. Blame it on US Customs. Of course, the customs forms were filled out properly and FedEx gives you no way to re-submit the paperwork anyway. Their excuse seems to always go away without further input from me and the package finally gets delivered - sometimes 3 weeks late. And then they refuse reimbursement.

    Another FedEx scheme: in order to charge extra they send a bill 10 days after delivery that states that the package was slightly oversize, by as little as one inch, which then doubles the price. Of course you've already thrown out the box by then and can't prove anything, except that you measured it accurately before shipping. They refuse to send a picture of their measurements and the burden of proof is 100% on you. This company is nothing but crooked.

After weeks and several more calls (at this point I had a Case Number), I was finally told it had completely disappeared, was never being taped, and that the scan that showed it had been on the delivery truck was not accurate since scans are AUTOMATED (which I kept saying, You mean faked?). Seriously, FedEx employees can help themselves to your purchases and there is no trail or consequences. Their solution... make the store send you another one (via Fedex, I suppose...

    Terrible customer service. I received a delicate part in the mail from the shipper. It was packed well and there was not a single issue. It was shipped not via FedEx. I changed my mind and decided to return it (it had to be shipped at my cost). The closest place to me was FedEx so I went with them. It was packaged the same way as it came to me. I even put more packing paper so it didn’t move around. I get an email few days later from the company (that I shipped the part back to) with pictures of crashed box. Very clear that something heavy fell on top of it. Filed a claim with FedEx in 4/2022. Included detailed pictures of the damage and packaging and protective packaging. The claim was denied with 48hrs.

    Called and spoke to a supervisor who was not very helpful and said it was not protected enough. I tried to explain that the damage is obviously caused by improper shipping or securing of the packages at the facility or on the truck. There was not convincing him. I offered to send more detailed pictures from the receiving business proving that the package was in fact well packed and part was protected. He stated no problem. So I obtained the pictures and submitted them. No answer for almost 1.5 months.

    Called back. They claimed they did not receive any pictures. Resent again. Denied. I paid extra for protection and insurance. The clerk at the desk examined the box before taping it and said nothing about “poor or inadequate” packaging or protection of the product. Of course a small box no matter how well packaged with get crashed by something bigger and heavier. The box looked like a truck drove over half of it. But FedEx won’t admit it. FedEx just lost several customers for life. I have an extensive family and friends network. None will be shipping with them over a $200 insurance claim that they would not pay.

Connie said that the package had an exception notice and to call back to Walgreens. She said it was "black label " but wouldn't explain to me what it was.

Then they keep mentioning something about an account number or an account executive, and I have no idea what that is!

This so called shipping company needs to go out of business because they are the worst. Right now I am fighting with them on my shipment from Sam's Club containing 8 items. Every time I call them I get a different story. The first time they said my package was damaged and they had to return it to the FedEx location to repackage it. Then the second time I called they said "we are experiencing a heavy volume of packages right now and are having a hard time keeping up. Your package will be delivered as soon as we can get it to you." Then the 3rd time I get "It was on the truck for delivery and the driver noticed something was leaking from it so it had to be returned to the FedEx location to investigate what is leaking and if it is hazardous.

    Once our investigation is complete we will ship out your package. Can you please tell me the contents of this package so we can speed along our investigation?" And now the 4th time I have called they are trying to tell me that they are looking into the issue and will turn it over to some team to find out why my package is not moving and will try to make sure it gets put on the truck for delivery by tomorrow but they can't be sure it will be on the truck for tomorrow but will try everything in their power to make sure it gets to me as soon as possible." Not one person I contacted could tell me what happened to my package, where my package was or when I will get my package. But what they could tell me was a bunch of fabricated lies to try appease me.

    When I called Sam's Club about my order they were no better at helping. They just told me they would have to send my complaint to a higher up department so they can look into it and would get back with my by tomorrow. They would not cancel the order and refund my money or reship out a replacement order. But that is another review. I never had any problems with UPS. I hate FedEx, it needs to go out of business.

This is horrible especially when FedEx doesn’t help the consumer, they could care less! I’m certain there is someone wearing my $250 pair of sneakers right now! Fedex should really invest in cameras on the trucks, in the warehouses, at all of their locations and body cams should be worn on their delivery drivers. If you can’t hire honest individuals, do something about it because this is getting out of line!

    At no point should I think automatically when seeing my items being shipped via FedEx that I won’t receive it.

It’s been 7 days and I still do not have this package that’s been in my area, according to tracking, for several 12 hour delivery days. I may never receive it and FedEx gets rude and unprofessional with ME for asking about it. Again, go with USPS or UPS! FedEx is a waste of your shipping dollars.

    This was hands down one of the worst experiences I have ever had. They stated that 1 of my packages, (a set of 4 rims and tires, separately shipped) has completely gone missing. The first story I got is that they hadn't left the original location. The second thing I was told is that it did leave the location and is now somewhere at the new location it was shipped to. Then told it was missing, passed from department to department, and never am able to get a straight answer from anyone as to where my package has gone. Three have arrived, and they say the last is gone and missing. What am I supposed to do with 3 rims and tires? I can't drive a car with 3 tires? They can lose them in 1 day, but to try and get back to me I need to wait days and days; up to two weeks according to them!

    Get back to me now, call me back. This is ridiculous. I want to speak to someone on the phone and stop getting the run around. What an absolute joke. What kind of shipping company loses the merchandise they are shipping? You have one job, ship product. One thing you can't do, lose product. What an absolute joke. Leighton ** is my name. FEDEX!

    Absolutely the worst service from a package carrier. I will NEVER use them again. 3 packages arrived in Memphis one week ago, all carrying the same goods. 1 package was delivered two days later on Friday. 2 packages are still in Memphis. After 10 calls trying to get an explanation, I’ve now been told that the remaining 60 hockey jerseys have just disappeared and my boxes are suddenly empty. I have been lied to repeatedly and they still have not even performed an investigation as to why 103 pounds of hockey jerseys just walked away from their secured boxes. Please don’t use them if you want your product to be received securely and in good shape.

    Had a package sent overseas 3 day shipment. Paid over $100. Found out that customs had it because the taxid number was missing. Asked why FedEx never contacted me about the situation and was basically told it wasn't their responsibility. So I had the package sent back to sender but they instead sent it to overgoods. After finding out a week later I told them to send it back to the sender and they said I would be charged over $100. I assume they didn't send back to sender so they could find a way to charge me for the delivery they failed to complete. I asked for a refund for the original shipment and was told it's not their responsibility whether or not the package was delivered within the 3 days or delivered at all. So basically they got paid for a service they didn't complete and charged extra for their mistake. Fedex never again. I recommend everyone to stay away as this company has no accountability.

I went to 3-4 FedEx offices to track my document, they gave me few contact numbers, half of which are not reachable. I managed to connect one and then after 4-3 contacts I tracked my consignment. In the entire process, customer care didn't even care to answer my ticket.

    Probably one of the worst companies I've ever had the displeasure of working with. I don't think they have ever delivered a package on time. I'm convinced that if a driver gets behind on their deliveries, they just start cancelling them until they are caught up. Every delayed order has had a ridiculous and/or impossible excuse. Don't pay for any of the faster shipping options, it'll still get there at the same time as ground.

    I get a monthly delivery from another company that chooses to use FedEx as their service. Every single time, the FedEx driver just leaves the boxes by the street instead of bringing them to my porch. I have never seen a company that has such lazy drivers-in the job description it says you must be able to lift/carry a certain weight. If the drivers aren't able to carry the boxes to my porch, maybe they should find another line of work. My husband and I are disabled and cannot carry these heavy boxes up to our porch-we wouldn't even need delivery if we were able to carry it, we would just go to the store and get it ourselves. The Fedex drivers have no concern if the customer is elderly or disabled or unable to lift heavy items. This is their job but they just leave the packages anywhere.

    Amazon and UPS drivers seem to be able to actually do their jobs correctly, so I'm not sure what the disconnect is with these Fedex drivers. Everyone is overworked, not just the Fedex drivers so there's really no excuse for not properly delivering packages. If you have a choice of delivery services, do not use Fedex. If you must use them, try to be home at the time they arrive to make sure they deliver the box to your porch and not just leave it anywhere by the street.

    FedEx claimed they were 'researching' the package and then told me that it was indeed delivered (I would love to know how they know that) and to take it up with the sender (Starlink). Starlink rocks and immediately dispatched a replacement kit - THROUGH FEDEX. Oh no. This one is supposed to be delivered tomorrow. I will be watching and waiting. I will be at the driveway.

    Updated review: July 23, 2022

    So, this crazy story got real strange. I didn't sleep since the day before, because I didn't want to miss the delivery. With installation the next day, I couldn't reschedule unless I wanted this huge box in my living room until August 2, 2022. That was unacceptable, so I waited until about 4pm and still no box. Odd enough, when I looked at the status it said the box was back at the warehouse. No number to call unless it was in a retail location. Only employees could call that place.

    More frustration of trying to find numbers that wouldn't defer me without letting me speak with someone. Their options are few, and if you don't give them a tracking number, they won't respond at all. I'm yelling at a damn bot, and when it said I couldn't speak with anybody, I wished I had an old fashioned landline that I could hang up HARD.

    I'm looking all around for the local store, which that national number tells you to call. An employee gets on the line and I tell him that I don't know where the TV is. I told him I was there the day before because the driver said it would be there, but I was turned away by the guy at the counter. He asks me what guy, and I lose it again and scream at him, "How the hell would I know? I didn't ask his name, he didn't offer, and I thought everything was on the up and up!" Never assume that about these shippers. They're full of it. I then quickly tell him to let me speak with the manager of the store.

    Kibui ** gets on the line, I explain everything to him and said I don't know where the box is. Driver said it was in Norcross, clerk said it was probably still on the truck, and we need to find that TV before the last driver leaves for the day. He tells me he will make some calls and try to find out why it was back at the warehouse.

    While he's speaking with me for the 3rd time, he puts me on hold, comes back and said the TV got dropped off at the store and the driver left. WHAT? Who told him I was going to pick it up? I don't have a truck; I have a car. I can't pull a huge box upstairs without a dolly, and this is crazy. Please get that delivered to me. I paid for it and can't pick it up.

    Original Review: July 21, 2022

    This is multi-layered. First of all, the website is silly. That bot is dumb as rocks; the virtual assistant. I don't get options that apply to my problem, and businesses everywhere are using the pandemic to become really inefficient, confusing, and just plain bad. I live in Duluth, GA, and I was expecting a large package today. The driver tried to deliver it yesterday when I wasn't expecting it. I sleep during the day. I get a door tag that says to pick it up at Fedex down the street, but when I went there, the package wasn't there. I had no idea what was showing up a day ahead of time. The clerk said it was going to be redelivered today (7/21/22). I purchase a lot of things online, and can't keep all the tracking information straight.

    I then go onto the website to try to pick a time for this delivery, because I can't put that box in my car. I never get the option to do so, and Fedex blames it on the shipper. The shipper has nothing to do with delivery times; just dates. The option to pick a time wouldn't show up, and I have to receive that package today. Installers are coming tomorrow. Their delivery manager software never lets me do what I need to do, but it sure makes it seem like you can handle these things using that junk on their website. I've already told them in that manager, if they require a signature, don't deliver before 6pm. I changed it to 5pm, but those delivery people never look at that... NEVER!

    Fedex is very inflexible about picking times to deliver anything, and I get conflicting information about packages. This isn't the first time a door tag was placed on my door, or none at all. Running me around when he could've just said he was going to redeliver it today. I don't know why they're so sloppy. He wrote on the door tag to pick it up, then kept it in his truck and entered something in the computer about redelivery. I had to go to the store to find this out? Pulease.

    That was bad enough, but their website is crazy, and if you call outside of "normal" business hours, it tells you to call back, doesn't give the hours, and hangs up. Directs me to my local office, which took me 15 minutes to find on the website, but that 800-number has nothing to do with my local Fedex office. How confusing & frustrating.

    There is no real feedback for Fedex aside from creating these complaints about them outside of their website. I'm not calling to complain, because that never goes anywhere and nobody tells me who they're sending complaints to. They just shine you on and nobody is ever reprimanded for anything. I need to sleep, but I'm afraid I'll miss this shipment when I have to have it today. I can't reschedule the installation company on such short notice.

    I think I'll type up a note and ask the delivery guy to call my phone when he arrives; to wake me up. I'll tell them I have to get the package today, so don't go away without delivering it. All these changes because of inflexible delivery manager software and a driver who is confused & confusing. Get it together, monopolies. We don't get to pick and choose who other businesses are using to deliver large packages like that.

The shipper was able to contact someone finally and found out that they had generated the tracking number but never actually picked up the printer. I am not sure what they were scanning or what the system was following when I used the tracking number and their website and phone number this whole time but it obviously was not my printer.

    It was early March 22 when my family sent a parcel from USA to India. It arrived quickly but took six weeks to clear customs, during which time FedEx did absolutely nothing to assist. Since I had left the country I asked the parcel be returned to the USA in early May. It's now mid-July and I've just learned the package has been sitting in a warehouse in, you guessed it, India since May.

    Despite 58 emails, 37 phone calls and endless time, the package is still not moving. All this time FedEx reps had both my phone number and shippers but never failed to reach out. I was first told it was lost/damaged, followed by a ton of other excuses just to find out, no it's fine - just sitting on a shelf for 10 weeks & yes they want to charge storage fees for that time. For a company that works in logistics, it's almost comical how bad they are at their job. Do yourself a favor and switch to another courier for your shipping needs.

    I am genuinely impressed with how awful FedEx is, normally it takes a serious effort for a company to be worse than the federal government at a job, but somehow FedEx has figured it out. The delivery date that they provide is completely arbitrary, and their drivers are beyond lazy. I watched a FedEx driver stop in my office's parking lot which was full of cars and obviously open, get out of his truck and leave a "no one home" note on the door. I ordered a welder and two gas tanks on the same day, the welder was delivered early by UPS, while the gas bottles being delivered by FedEx are late.

    Thanks to FedEx I have a useless hunk of metal called a welder sitting in my shop, can't build the welding cart because I have no gas, can't install the floor in the 1950 Coronet because I have no gas, can't build the compound turbo piping in the 5.9 Cummins because I have no gas. If I had known that FedEx was the one responsible for shipping the gas tanks I would've bit the bullet and bought the more expensive 125CF tanks since they ship with UPS. If you are considering using FedEx to ship something to a client I insist that you find another logistics provider. They are not accountable for their failures as a company, and their hiring policy seems to be hiring all the Swift drivers who get fired.

At first tracking said it would be delivered by end of day, then later it changed to being dropped at a Walgreens for pickup after 10:30, with no notification. Had I not tracked the package myself I would not have known to send someone to pick it up, and we would have missed our own deadline for work.

    What's worse is the customer service person I got on the phone. Jasmine (no last name because she refused to give it to me, if Jasmine is even her real name). I started the conversation nice enough and apologizing for my rant, but the more we spoke the angrier I got. She refused the refund because she said on "her side" it was delivered on time, which was insulting because I was clearly explaining it wasn't. Then she refused to transfer me to a manager or whatever complaints department is over her, stating that she wasn't allowed to and they can't help me anyway. When I asked for a valid reason why she wouldn't transfer me, she stated there was nothing more she could do for me and hung up on me.

    My blood is boiling right now, I've never been treated so rudely by a customer service person. She didn't give me my refund, which fell under the guarantee. And worse she didn't even apologize or explain why, she just hung up! Honestly I'm more upset about her than about not getting the refund. Had she been a little nicer about the whole thing and explained a little more, the conversation would have ended on an entirely different note.

When she came back she acted like she couldn't hear me then giggled and said "I'm sorry I can't hear you. Please call back" and hung up...

This is not the first time but probably the 6th or 7th that the same drive has done this. So this time the neighbor did not bring it over or text me. I looked at our security camera footage to see the drive deliver did in fact deliver the package at 11:06 at the neighbor's house. To make a point of this lack of attention the drive has for the deliveries I called FedEx. 3 days later the local office called and told me the driver will not go get it and deliver it correctly but for me to call the vendor and get a replacement. So how is that for customer service? How is it the responsibility of the vendor to replace an item when the shipping company refuses to correct the problem. We will be shipping with UPS or USPS from now on. Spread the word if you feel the same. #FedexCourier

    Fed Ex has no idea where my customer's package is, and to add insult to injury, their tracking system is worthless, For example; 1) The tracking # shows the package shipped from Brooklyn, NY, not Ventura, California. 2) The customer service, appears to be outsourced because they are unaware of U.S. geography (thousands of miles separate California and New York). 3) The tracking site showed the package as delivered to the P.O. in Woodacre on the 18th, then on the 13th, then the 9th, then the 7th, now I’m told the package is perhaps in the FedEx facility in Tracey California, but I must file a claim to be sure or have any search done. For a claim number … 4) You are given 21 days to file a claim, and you should be able to follow the link to file online… but the link is broken (I tried 3 different browsers) leaving the only option 1) print 2) mail 3) or fax, which would be fine, if someone would give you the fax number … they won’t.

    5) I was able to speak with a representative of the USPS Immediately, and file a claim on the phone with the representative, the next morning I received a call from the Woodacre postmaster, informing me that my package had never been delivered to Woodacre (1,400 population, very small town), she has since updated me and my client daily. I cannot even call FedEx in Tracey. 6) I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, but I was horrified to see 15,000 + complaints and 1-star ratings, very similar to mine. 7) As a small business this is particularly difficult, not only must I refund my customer, I am taking a loss on shipping and I have no idea if my property will ever be found and returned, even if I am able to file a claim, FedEx has a very poor track record on refunding or taking responsibility for their mistakes, according to their BBB reviews and all others.

    8) I will keep posting my nightmare experience, and warning every other small business, because despite FedEx customer service rep's belief, most small businesses do not have 'shipping and production managers’ to handle these issues, and Etsy does not involve itself, they only supply the group discount if labels are bought through them.

    First off they double charged me for a delivery and they said they refunded me but I never received it, they told me that the problem is on my end, I tried to tell them that if you send a refund we will receive it but my BIGGEST problem with them is I sent a package out, only to a place three hours away from me, and it was suppose to be delivered the next day and it wasn't or the day after that or the day after that but on the fourth day. My customer took off to be at home and the delivery driver pulled up in his yard and turned around, didn't even get out of his truck, and left, my customer tried to stop him but couldn't. So we both called in to make complaint. My customer even told FedEx to come out and look at his cameras but they wouldn't. This went on for 10 days the driver saying he couldn't deliver it but again my customer looked at his cameras and again no FedEx driver to be seen even trying.

    So during my calls to them they assured me that I wouldn't be charged for the package but they did charge me. After several calls to them yet again they told me that they would not be refunding me for the package. And their customer service reps. are some of the unfriendliest I've ever run across. When you ask to speak to a manager and they refuse to let you and if you open a dispute with them and someone is suppose to call you within 24 hours but you never get a phone call or email from them, this happened three times to me. I will never ever use FedEx again and I told all my distributors not to use them when they ship anything to me. If I could rate them a negative I would. Use anyone but FedEx.

I called FedEx and they started quoting their policies and said that in the terms and conditions on the little screen one accepts, declares all this. The person at the counter did not say anything. All they have to do it inform the customer, so a customer can make an informed decision. The Fedex customer service (revenue department) person on the line was rude and all he did was just talk and kept reading me their rules and not listening to me at all.

It appears to me that when they exceed the estimated delivery day, FedEx will send a notification stating the parcels were delivered, then the next day or a couple days later it finally arrives. This got to have something to do with the way they record their metrics and performance.

    Interestingly enough this time, the delivery required signature. It was "signed" by someone we do not recognize and now the package is missing. I filed a complaint and the parcels appeared to be in transit again... So, was it delivered or not? Your guess is as good as mine!

This package has been bouncing around eastern Oregon for 4 days after being shipped from CO to Boise, ID. They delivered one of the two packages shipped at the same time and forwarded the large package with the bike from ID to OR, shipped to to Boise, ID, returned it to OR. It has had the label replaced twice and has sat on shipping docks for over 72 hours at various places.

    When you contact customer service they simply read you what you can read for yourself on the website tracking info (that is if the website is operational which is only 50% of the time). When finally placed in contact with a supervisor he said he would call the distribution center and get back to me with an update.

All I ask for is charge me the regular ground rate but due to "terms and conditions" which is very convenient, I'm screwed and FedEx has won the battle. I am beyond disappointed in the poor delivery and notification, and even more disappointed that FedEx has become oblivious to their customer base and would seem they do not care about business and only about making an extra dollar.

Should have been delivered 6/6 and now they won’t talk to me, tell the vendor it’s lost or do anything to assist until 6/13! Essentially I have to wait a full week for them to do nothing so that when and if they decide to admit they’ve lost the package so I can have it replaced I’ve been out the product for over 3 months from order time, shipping and then replacement if it’s still even available! They give their customer service agents the same robotic message to say “I’m sorry. The product is in transit to the warehouse”. Even though they can’t say WHERE in transit or WHEN it might be there because they have ABSOLUTELY no idea where it is! And then they have the audacity to have a message that says “weather delay” on the track my shipment message on the vendor site where order was placed.

    Last time I checked there haven’t been any major weather occurrences disrupting the airways or highways since the last update shipping date. LIARS! Horrible customer service!

    If you pay extra to make sure your package arrives on time, the driver will make sure to just leave a "we missed you" tag on the door instead of knocking or ringing the doorbell. Then the online tracking portal will tell you the package will be redelivered on a saturday, only for it to never arrive. You could have picked it up at a facility, but they won't tell you that since you're waiting for the delivery. Then you call customer service to find out they don't deliver on saturday at all, and your extremely time-sensitive package will have to wait until monday for redelivery. They offer no alternatives to get your package on time, only empty apologies.

    Providing today's broken promise: FedEx ground shipment from Brooklyn Park, Mn. to Batavia, NY. First promise was for delivery yesterday 5/17. They moved it up to 5/16, then back again to the today the 18th. This is an very important small box shipment of samples for a customer. I have to postpone 2 appointments due to no samples. Absolutely stinks. They have consistently broken delivery promises. It's 4:30 PM Eastern time and no FedEx truck!!! They used to be great, I will ask my suppliers to never ship Fed EX again.

I was hoping they would be better than UPS but they are just like them. After they get your money they don't care.

    Every time I am expecting a delivery over the past couple of years my delivery status turns into "pending" and my delivery ends up being 4-7 days later. I get messages saying they attempted to deliver but no one was home. LIE. I have been home every time and have a Ring doorbell. They have not attempted. They suck and I will NEVER use them to ship my packages. I'll use UPS.

    I recently ordered a cell phone that was being delivered by FedEx. The first delivery date by FedEx was May 13. Upon tracking the delivery the next day it was changed to May 14. I spent all day on the 13th and 14th waiting patiently by the front door. I had been without a phone for 6 days. Shortly after 1:00 pm my wife receives a text that no one was home to receive the delivery. That was an outright lie. Even if one of us went somewhere for a while we always made sure somebody was by the door. Not only does FedEx not deliver on time they lie about skipping your house when it is inconvenient to their route. Another time FedEx left the delivery right outside the garage door with no notification. Of course I ran it over backing out. We'll see if the third promise is delivered later today.

    These people are liars and deadbeats. They NEVER deliver on time and what they do deliver is often damaged. Companies should drop them. They have become so awful at what they do that I hate it when they deliver, if they deliver at all. I was home the whole day, and there is always someone at reception, so there was literally no excuse for not delivering my parcel. They are just lazy. I would give them zero stars if I could.

    3. Delivered several packages to a neighbor down the street, that neighbor brought them to me.
    4. I had a delivery of live vegetation - trees and bushes. The driver was throwing them off the truck onto my driveway. They were well packaged, the only thing that saved them.

    Fed Ex has become the worst shipping company in the nation. They used to be the 2nd best behind UPS. They send bogue delivery attempt messages! I was expecting a package that required a signature, so I had to make sure I was home to sign for it. I was home waiting the first day, then I received a message that they attempted the delivery and no one was home. Wrong! They never came. My security cam is proof. I called the customer service and she said that she would send them back the same day for another try. You guessed it, it never happened. The next day, again the same thing. Got a message that the attempted delivery wasn't successful. What a bunch of lies! Now, they are supposed to make a last attempt tomorrow. If they do the same thing, the package won't be delivered. Avoid them! Management needs to be fired.

    Let's just start by saying, this is why huge companies shouldn't be allowed to be this bug. FedEx is typically always the company that people use to ship online international goods. And every time my order is being shipped from them, I've had an issue. Recently, I ordered from a company and once it got to FedEx, the product stopped moving (I was tracking it). It was in Memphis for 9 days. I inquired about it for multiple days by calling them and kept receiving the same response from workers- it's being looked into.

    I had to BEG the gentleman for them to be honest and just admit they lost it so that I could get my money back from the vendor I ordered from. Honestly, there is always an issue with this company. They don't care how they speak to you, they don't actually resolve any issues, they don't take accountability, you never get anything on time. Now, I will not order from anyone who uses them for shipment because the anxiety of getting my product isn't worth it.

    Today is Wed. My package was supposed to arrive last Friday, when I looked it up, it said it was coming Monday instead, then Monday came and went, update now showed that my address was wrong and they could not deliver (**). I called and confirmed the address was correct and was told that delivery Tues. So late Tues night I called again and they said it will absolutely be here Wed before 8pm. She said that was the shipping deadline "so it WILL be there." So I call today, Wednesday, and I'm told the same old "I'm sorry for your inconvenience, but it shows delivery tomorrow".

    I'm so mad I could spit (it seems apparent that they train their employees at the same place AT&T trains theirs), but it shows my shipment as delayed once again, they suck, I asked for a supervisor and none are available, as I found out that operator is working from home in the Philippines. So I'd be really interested in who owns this company today, how much they are paying those employees (if it's a fair wage), since they're outsourcing for a reason, and now I understand why the purple and orange colors, glad it wasn't red white and blue! This company has gone to the birds, I'll never trust them with a shipment again and I'm requesting that shipper not use them either. Whoever took over for the amazing folks that used to run it, really lack the quality and reliability it once had. You could let it go to FedEx and you knew it would be there...Those days are gone!

    Chose FedEx to ship the body armor to NY. I said that I need this package to be delivered in 2 days and it is very important because the volunteer was flying from NY to Poland and was supposed to delivered this body armor set. I paid 400$ for 2 days delivery and no one warned me that delivery could potentially be delayed, moreover, I was told that it would be delivered. As a result, the delivery was delayed for 24 hours and missed the flight. This package could have saved the life to one of Ukrainian defenders, but it didn’t, thank to Fedex. Not only they failed to deliver my package on time, but even refused to refund my money for this express delivery. This is a fraud! Worst service ever..

    A simple 2-yard piece of linen fabric leaves Lithuania on March 22, 2022, shipped via FedEx. It moves quickly through Germany and France, then half-way around the world, and arrives in Memphis, TN within two days. Great! But after a week or so of sitting in Memphis awaiting customs clearance, I begin to track this package and call FedEx Customer Service to find out what the delay is. They tell me customs is really backlogged and there’s nothing they can do to speed it up.

    This wait – and this same response from FedEx – continues for… wait for it (pun intended)… SEVEN WEEKS! I call every few days and get the same answer. No one at FedEx can tell me what the delay is. Finally, after the sixth week, the company where I ordered my fabric in Lithuania contacts me with an apology (though this was absolutely no fault of theirs) and offers to re-ship my order via a different carrier at no cost. Yes please!

    The second package departs Lithuania, this time via DHL (halleluiah!), on a Tuesday and arrives on my doorstep in Washington State TWO DAYS later on Thursday! So thankful for DHL and for the company, MagicLinen, that re-shipped my fabric at no cost! I am still waiting for my original package, which is still in the hands of FedEx. Interestingly, they created a duplicate tracking number and contrived a new “ship date” of May 3 – I’m sure to cover themselves from having a record of a 7-week delay. The package arrived today, finally. The box looked like it had been runner by a freight train. Completely destroyed, crushed, filthy dirty. Oh, and the original tracking information and shipping date have been deleted and only the duplicate tracking number and new "ship" date is now visible. Unbelievable.

Tracked the package on 5/04, it was transferred to a FedEx hub in MD. Tracked again on 5/9 (after I became aware that the package was not received) and found out that the package was still seating in the MD hub since 5/4. Called the FedEx corporate, they couldn't explain why the package was not delivered, just saying that there was a request for future delivery, request that I didn't make. The USPS would have cost less and would certainly provide a better service. Conclusion: FEDEX CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

    My FedEx package is inexplicably missing. They made a delivery "attempt", whatever that means, then said it would be delivered the next business day. It has been multiple business days and the status has not been updated. I went to fedex.com which was zero help so I tried customer service. They have an automated chatbot which is less than useless. Apparently paying actual humans to chat is too much for them. So finally, with no other choice, I call the dreaded customer service phone number. I am once again greeted by a robot, as is usual, except this robot inexplicably does not register the 12 digit tracking number I type in; instead I have to speak the entire number. That goes about as well as you would expect.

    First try, the robot gets the number completely wrong. Second try, it immediately tells me that "FedEx offices are now closed, please call back later" with zero information on when they open, and then it hangs up on me. Maybe try starting with that next time instead of making me recite a 12 digit number multiple times. Or how about paying actual humans for 24/7 support.

Yet I'm at work all day and never signed for it and the security camera footage in my condo showed no indication of a delivery being made. Clearly the driver was unable to access my building and lied about dropping off the package. I called FedEx and was told they'd be launching an "investigation" but nothing happened. I'm at work all day and am not at home to receive packages. FedEx never offered me an alternate pick-up location like other couriers do.

    Federal Express did not deliver as promised. Their tracking site reflected that two attempts had been made to deliver the package, however, they had not which was confirmed by their representative. Apparently, due to their high volume, they extended the delivery date by 3 days but instead of showing that on their tracking site they kept stating that it was on its way and then that an attempt to deliver had been made. Delivery times are reflected as up to 8 in the evening which means that I sat home for two full days waiting for a package to be delivered and will again be waiting all day tomorrow. They should treat their customers better.

    Even USPS is better. Fedex would not knock on doors or ring the bell, and yet they would say they attempted to deliver. I recently had fresh fruits delivered and because of Fedex all the produce were rotten before they finally made the delivery. They left a note in the mail room on another person's mailbox saying they attempted delivery, but they did not even bother to come to the apartment door and try to knock or ring the bell. Even when the delivery box clearly said it was fresh and to be delivered on the same day. I work from home and would have easily received it. They have customer's email and shipper's contact, they could have sent an email on expected delivery and I would be on the look out. They are notorious for doing this, and this is not the first time it happened to me. I don't ever use them and I would avoid vendors that use them.

    Until now I would like so many others rate Fedex as a delivery service as 1 star. But now it's gone to another level. I had a guitar shipped via Fedex to my shipping address which is a UPS store. The package was marked delayed for 7 days and the trace dept. could not find it. Then suddenly after 7 days it gets marked delivered at 1 pm and "left at the front door". So the driver claims they left the box outside the UPS store at 1 pm on a weekday when they are open. And Fedex then says, "Oh well it's marked delivered, case closed." So no wonder why driver theft is such a problem, they practically say to them "Go ahead, we don't care if you steal a package just mark it delivered at the front door!" Wow a pathetic way to operate. I will never ever buy anything again online that gets shipped FedEx. Do yourself a favor and skip this company.

    I sent two packages to my son for his birthday and ordered "signature required" for both deliveries. The cost for this service was an additional $6 per package for a total of $12 for the two of them. When the mail carrier delivered the packages, he signed for them himself (as proof, he misspelled my son's name in both instances) and threw them into the general mail delivery area. When I tried to be refunded for the total $12, I was told there was no dollar breakdown on the invoice for the required signatures, just an indication that they had been requested. I told FedEx that was an error on their part and I shouldn't be penalized for their bad bookkeeping.

    Plus, I noted they know how much they charge (a standard $6 for obtaining a personal signature) and they know I wouldn't have been given this service free. They said they were sorry but no credit would be forthcoming. Of course, all of this took place over a period of weeks, with FedEx taking down all kinds of copious details and informing me I would be contacted, first, by phone the following day (NEVER) and later by e-mail within 72 business hours (again, NEVER). The company is guilty of bad bookkeeping, dishonest delivery service, and then shirking their refund promises and responsibilities. I say far better to use the general post office, which charges half the price and offers just as (bad!) service. I know I will never use FedEx again.
