    Today I waited all day for an important package that I paid a lot to be delivered. At the end of the day, I checked tracking (it was scheduled to be delivered today). The "driver" reported that there was security issue at my house and they would attempt another day. There was no security issues at my house, it is a very safe single home. No FedEx truck ever came to my house today. This happens all of the time with Fedex, it seems that they pick an excuse when they do not feel like delivering. I called customer service and the only thing they could do was "leave a note". Whatever that means. Fedex has always been known for poor service but it is getting worse. I order all of the time and UPS never seems to have problems, just FEDEX.

    Extremely bad experience, honestly stay away from them, They lost 30% of my boxes in an international shipment, they only recovered a few of them during a period of 2 weeks and some are completely lost, they do not want to refund anything despite the insurance, unless I find a lawyer and sue them there is nothing that I can not, the woman in customer service FedEx International refuses to talk to me and the only thing that they say is the case is closed, stay away from them, I won't use them ever again for my business, I am sure any other provider is far better than Fedex International Shipping.

    I would classify FEDEX service as a simple SCAM. Let me explain: I accessed fedex.com and hired an international ship (Brazil to France). FEDEX tool "Fedex Ship Manager Lite" indicated dates and fares. I hired the most expensive delivery since documents were urgent. After only 2 (two) hours after paying and printing FEDEX tag the documents were deposited GolLog in Salvador Airport (Fedex representative). For my surprise, the date of arrival was then postponed in 2 days without ANY EXPLANATION. The delivery become simply useless to me. This is simply OUTRAGEOUS.

    On behalf of our company I made an online purchase to be delivered to one of our remote employees. The FedEx delivery driver did make a delivery, but it was not the ordered item. It was simply a piece of cardboard with the shipping label! I called the store right away and they are sending another item with signature required. In the meantime, Fed Ex should investigate this. The shipping location has a long driveway at the end of a long deadend street, with cameras, a car in the driveway, and large barking dogs. No one tampered with the "package" after delivery.

    We selected FedEx to ship a demonstration unit from France to our Company. The package was picked up on 10/14/19. On 10/21/19 - 1 week later - Fed-Ex advised us the customs paperwork was not complete. We took immediate action to rectify the situation, and the package was cleared by 10/24/19. The package has not moved in over a week. It is now 11/1/19 and nothing has happened.

    We call Fed-Ex and get no support what-so-ever. They simply tell us the same details we can see on their website. All they do is a send an email to France, requesting an update, but the department in France is not responding. I asked for a phone number for the French department, and they will not give it to us. Ask for the email address for the department in France. They will not give it to us. They provide no support and have no intentions of providing us with details to help us track our own package. Fed-ex has one service - to deliver packages. And they are failing miserably at it. I wish my job had only one purpose to support. I would do my best to actually succeed in doing it, instead of providing the worst support possible.

    I have a delivery pending for a heavy but within FedEx limits that required a signature, the first attempt was the drive walking up to the door (no package in hand) and sticking a "we missed you' door tag on the door and walking back to his truck and leaving (no knock or doorbell ring)- I know this because I have a camera recording our house front and saw it first hand. I called and complained (fell on deaf ears).

    The second day I stayed home from work to accept the package. I was up getting coffee and was very close to the front door at 8:41 AM (when the driver entered that he attempted a delivery and we did not answer the door). Again I reviewed the video and watched at that time as a FedEx truck drove by my house! No attempt was made at all.

    Finally got a manager at FedEx customer service and they arranged for me to go to the depot at 7:00 in the evening to pick up my package! Talking to the people at the depot they told me that the drivers a contractors and that this happens a lot with heavy packages! FedEx depot workers are very aware of this type of issue and aren't afraid to say so!

    Updated on 11/01/2019: FedEx don’t seem to be taking my “missing” property seriously. This is my livelihood that they have spoken to me rudely about since 8th Oct. (It’s now Nov 1) They have consistently lied to me that it is being held in customs. Once again, I had to call to follow up despite being promised a callback from Scott. He said that Stansted haven’t come back to him about my missing property, so I just have to wait. He promised a callback, which they all do every call and never do.

    Disgusting service. I’m extremely suspicious due to the lies surrounding this shipment that my property has been stolen. Why else would FedEx lie about its whereabouts and consistently fob me off and even shout at me on the phone! I AM ADVISING YOU NEVER SHIP TO UK WITH FEDEX. The worst customer service I have received in my life. Lost or missing packages??? Not good enough. I wonder if FedEx will reimburse the losses my small business has suffered due to this??? I highly doubt it after experiencing the shocking customer service they have in the UK call centers. Not one single person has even had the decency to apologize up to now!!! Disgusting.

    Original Review: FedEx is by far the worst courier company I have ever worked with - and I worked in the export industry for over 10 years! I’ve had a shipment for my own brand new and small business. It is stock from USA, that customers are waiting for. The stock arrived in the UK 08/10/2019. When it wasn’t delivered, I contacted them to be told that it had been taken by customs for analysis. Fine... or so you’d think.

    After a few days I called up to ask about a timescale, a woman called Tracey spoke to me like I’m stupid saying it’s impossible for them to tell me. I left it a few more days so it had been over a week And spoke to someone called Jane. She shouted at me when I asked that they contact customs for an update or timescale. She shouted down the phone so rudely I was in shock. I tried to explain to her that I know full well they can contact customs, she refused. I asked to speak to her superior To get some answers, Jane hung up on me. I got a phone call for feedback! I complained, was told I would receive a callback about the matter and never did. Regular phone calls achieved nothing.

    Until today, 31/10/2019, Scott who was supposed to call me back yesterday and didn’t bother, told me (after I called again) that the package is, in fact, missing. So they lost my property, lied about it and spoke to me like I’m an idiot every time I called. Myself, my business, business partners, associates and friends and anyone I discuss business with will NEVER use FedEx after this experience and I am going to write as many reviews as possible so that nobody else suffers the disgraceful and incompetent service FedEx has to offer.

    FedEx is the worst, that's why I stick with UPS. FedEx strung us and 2 of my clients along for a week and the only thing they say is "I apologize". We were suppose to get a shipment that the shipper corrected. So we waited on Friday for the corrected shipment. We stayed on top of FedEx to make sure everything was corrected. Every time, we talked to someone they said the same thing. "It will be there Friday...." It's now Sunday. Well since I got a week's worth of apologies I tried to pay our freelancers with apologies... they said "** you, where's my MONEY". Who knew? I thought FedEx apologies were universal and we can pay our rent with it...

    UPDATE: Monday 28 of Oct, called them again... Still nothing and they say they are going to update the "new" address. It's been a week, it's not new. But they said the update will take a day so guess what? Its not coming till Tuesday, instead of Monday, or me picking it up at their place Saturday, or them delivering it to the new address Friday... WHERE IS MY SHIPMENT?

    I bought something online from Walmart and they shipped it via Fedex. They showed my package to be,"from tracking lookup" to be on the truck & OUT FOR DELIVERY. Then I looked for them all day but they never showed up. So I tracked it again and got this message "Your Package Could Not Be Delivered Because The Address On Your Package Was Wrong." This is not the first time they've pulled this stunt. After Reading Several Other Reviews It Seems To Be Their Way Of Not Delivering Because They Just Flat Out Don't Want To. It was shipped as Next Day Delivery. Now my new expected delivery date is in three more days... I looked at my order receipt and it had my address just perfect. They ship to me from their Fedex facility in Chattanooga Tn.

    This seems to be an ongoing issue with Fedex. I stayed home because I'm expecting a package to be delivered today. Something that I need to finally finish a home project. Was tracking the package almost every hour. At 3 pm it was still en route. At 3:32 “they attempted to deliver but customer not available, re-deliver next business day which will be 3 days from today. No Fedex truck came. I know because I have a ring video to prove it. Also, the package does not need signature, why not just leave it on my porch like they normally do, if they really came. Calling the customer service is a waste of time. The company where I bought the item called them and promised them the item will be re-deliver before the end of the day. It's already end of the day and still no package. You try to be understanding with these people as they do a lot of deliveries. But lying about something that never happened can be infuriating. Very frustrating!!

    I have been tracking my package all day. The tracker told me at 1:01 PM Delivery exception Customer not available or business closed Bridgeport, PA. I have been in my building since 9 AM and it is currently 4:09 PM. At NO time did I see the door open or hear our extremely obnoxious doorbell ring. Also on my cameras that are outside, there was not a SINGLE FEDEX truck in view on any of the sides of the building. There is NO pin number to get into the building nor a buzzer. After speaking to a customer service rep, she told me to check for a door tag. I went to look, and there is not a single door tag on my door or the door next door.

    I am extremely irate. I have been waiting for this package since I ordered it last week. The customer service rep also told me that the Bridgeport location is closed on Sundays and Mondays. This is extremely unacceptable. Put yourself in my position. Companies RELY on FedEx for deliveries. I have had UPS deliver today. Amazon is capable of delivering AND OPENING a door. And even the USPS, the most UNRELIABLE delivery service is capable of opening a door and walking up 13 steps. The incompetence of your driver is ruining what would have been a birthday gift to my niece to which I am currently going to travel to Florida for. I will NOT be back until next week. Therefore going to have to purchase another gift. Not only the laziness but the pure fact that HE/SHE LIED about my business being closed, is utterly remarkable.

    I choose to ship FedEx at a premium over UPS because of their better estimated shipment time. This is a lie. They will put whatever number they need to beat the competition nor does that actually reflect on actual delivery times. They took two extra days to deliver than they estimated (Which I was better off shipping with UPS for a cheaper rate and an actual better delivery time) due to the package traveling a total of 6 miles per day from one sorting center to the next.

    I went to FedEx location to send a package by ground. The manager of the store was the one that did my transaction and he failed to let me know the different options (request signature for example) they have for shipping. I shipped original documents. The package was lost. I called them immediately and they said they'd open an investigation and that they would call me back. I would always call them, sometimes they said they'd call me and they never did.

    They strung me along for a week, until I asked them straight if the package was officially lost, so that I would move forward and trying to find ways to get the original documents that were going to immigration again (paid $200.00 again to obtain originals again). The departments amongst FedEx don't talk to each other. When you call customer service, every person that answers mumble their name and it is difficult to understand them in English, it's almost as it is on purpose that they don't enunciate the words completely.

    I have filed a claim for a lost package and not keeping my hopes up that they will reimburse me for the cost of having to reproduce originals again. It's been 6 days that I sent out the claim form by e-mail and only one response I have received only stating that they had received the claim form and to access FedEx online to find out about the status of the claim. I ended up calling customer services since when you go on line they don't have where you can click on to see the status of your claim as it says in their e-mail response.

    The person that answered in customer service, once again the name mumbled over the phone he just transferred me to a recorded automated message system and after 5 minutes the recorded wanted me to rate the customer service of the call and so I did thinking that they would now answer the phone and they hanged up the call. I have learned so much about FedEx only last and this month and FedEx is a shady company all around that should not be trusted with your business whatsoever.

    I've had multiple (more than 6) packages sent to me at work and at home and not one has been on time even when paying for 2 day shipping. Their tracking system will say delivery date and then be pushed back every day until they actually decide to try and deliver the package. I have emailed FedEx directly multiple times and always get the same exact computer generated email stating that "the date on the tracking website is the latest possible day that the delivery will be there". But still that date gets pushed back at least twice on every delivery.

    I've asked for refunds on 2 day delivery (that I've paid over $30 in shipping) that have taken more than 7 business day to arrive and they seem to not care. If I could pay the websites more to use literally any other shipping company I would every time. I feel that it should be mandatory for websites to tell you who they ship with before purchasing from them (some dont) because if I knew that company were using fedex I would go out of my way to buy from somewhere else.

    I ordered an expensive, heavy and fragile product from a company that didn't allow me to select a service and they chose FedEx. The package required a signature so I had to be at home for the delivery but each day they tried to deliver, I was at work. The slip on the door said you could manage your delivery online so I tried that and it involved setting up an account that required sending you a piece of mail to verify your address, another 3-5 days. So I couldn't schedule a delivery that was convenient for me. I then tried to set up a hold at one of their facilities to pick up the package - because I have to work - and the local office wouldn't accept it so it had to go to the city, a long drive. All in all a terrible service. I will, in the future, check with companies I purchase from to ensure they don't use FedEx and shop elsewhere if need be.

    Fedex was 2 days late and then delivered my package to “who knows where”!, 100 dollars worth of frozen italian beef GONE!, their pathetic “support” line took 20 minutes to get a person on the line and all they would do is open an investigation. UPS has sent the driver back when this happened with them. Do yourself a favor and use anyone except fedex.

    Of the 3 major carriers, FedEx is the worst. No customer support, late deliveries, delivery exceptions with no explanation or reason. I live in a rural area and yet never have an issue with UPS or USPS. They're both very reliable and in the last 6 months, I have not had a single delay receiving a package from either. FedEx, on the other hand, has been at least 2 days late on 3 separate occasions in less than a month. 2 of these deliveries were perishable goods (meal kits) that arrived so late that the ice packs had melted and the food inside was hot, spoiled and beginning to rot.

    I reached out to their customer service and got no response. No apology, no explanation, not even a "we're looking into it." And now, I'm left waiting for another package that was supposed to arrive yesterday but was given a "delivery exception" status at 8:30 am, though it shows it was loaded on the truck at 4am. It says it's supposed to come today, but still says "delivery exception" and hadn't updated since yesterday morning. I have no idea if it's actually coming today, tomorrow or next week, and reaching out to customer service has so far done nothing. As usual, they haven't responded.

    From the reviews of FedEx on other sites, it looks like this is a problem for a lot of people, not just me or my neighbors (who have the same problems I do). I don't understand how USPS can operate at a loss and yet STILL deliver on time 99% of the time. FedEx is a huge corporation with billions of dollars behind them and they screw up so consistently, I won't deal with them unless there is no other option.

    I can forgive occasional delays, but 3 times in less than a month with no explanation is unforgivable. Not responding to customer questions, concerns or complaints is unforgivable. I haven't gotten so much as an apology from them. If you call the customer service number, they just keep transferring you or put you on hold until you hang up. If you use their "contact us" option on the website, you don't get a response. At this point, I never want to deal with them again if I don't have to. They don't care about the customer or the goods they ship. Go with another carrier if you actually want your stuff on time.

    Over last month I happened to use FedEx Canada service 3 times. And they managed to screw it up 3 out of 3. The first one. I bought a pair of running shoes and expected to get it delivered by October 1st. This is what FedEx showed on their website. Until October 2nd, then it changed to pending... After contacting the seller multiple times, I finally got parcel delivered by Canada Post in a week. The second purchase was 2 chairs. This time FedEx called 2 days after estimated delivery date, and said they are finally ready to give it to me the same day. Or any other working day, 9 till 4 .Of course, they don't deliver on weekends. I ended up picking it myself from their centre.

    Finally, for the third one, they called me and asked what yeah works better for me. I took a day off to wait for them, but they just didn't show up. My wife called them, now they say the truck was full and they will do it tomorrow. I didn't want to write any review after my first negative experience with them - everyone makes mistakes from time to time-consuming even after the second one I was more or less ok, but now it seems they don't care about customers at all. My summary - if there is any other option exists, even paid, choose it, not FedEx Canada. My summary

    I shipped 13 boxes at to a domestic address and one box was never delivered. All means of contacting customer support for FEDEX got me nothing but dead-ends and stonewalling. Customer support keeps telling me my FEDEX shipping number shows my box was delivered to a bogus address in December of 2017 when I had shipped the box in August of 2019. They then told me the tracking number is a recycled number, but still have no idea where my package might be. They keep suggesting I file a claim, but when a claim was filed, they denied the claim using the old recycled tracking number information, saying the time limit to file a claim had expired because they were still using old information from the recycled tracking number.

    Why does their system not update the tracking number info once the tracking number is recycled? Seems pretty basic, yet I continually have to deal with customer representatives that are still accessing info from a prior delivery. The customer reps are located all over the globe, and none can help. A totally inept and careless way to run a business. I'll probably have to sue FEDEX to get any satisfaction.

    FedEx delivery drivers have proved to be careless and lazy in their care and prudence in leaving packages at my apartment building. They can't seem to follow simple directions and avoid any inconvenience of making sure that the delivery is at the correct location. In the past two days alone they left two heavy packages first where no one would see them and second not where they needed to be in spite of the fact that there were two men that came out of the truck who looked like they could have easily carried the large boxes to the correct location up a flight of stairs. If I didn't have some vigilant neighbors who found the large, heavy items by accident and were helpful in carrying up the stairs for us I don't know what I would have done. These same neighbors, by the way, have had a number of packages left at the wrong apartment almost having lost most of their Christmas to a somewhat shady character.

    I called FedEx the next day and explained the incident and the local delivery station was to have relayed the concerns to the drivers. Well, that very day again after typical PR assurances the driver unloaded the third heavy package to the front door of my apartment in spite of a sign on the door clearly directing all deliveries be taken around to the back of the building. Not only did the driver ignore the instruction he placed the heavy box on a public sidewalk against the door effectively blocking the entrance. All this I have captured on camera. There is no excuse for this kind of negligence, lack of courtesy or concern for your constituents. Shame on you FedEx!

    My mother died on September 13th this year. My family and I drove from ATL to MN to handle her affairs and ship very important items that she left for her grandchildren and me home. We chose FedEx because we believed that our items would be in safe hands. We paid 600.00 to ship all of the items many of which were priceless and sentimental. When the items arrived in ATL, EVERYTHING was broken. Literally every item that we shipped was damaged or destroyed. I called to complain and the customer service agent was cold and nonchalant. We sent over pics of the items and never received a followup call. We received a check for 333.00 a few days later. This check didn't even cover our shipping costs let alone make up for all of the memories of my mother that were destroyed. I have NEVER been so upset or disappointed by a company in my life. I will never use FedEx again and I will tell everyone that I know to do the same. Terrible.

    This is at least the second time that I have had a credit card hacked with my card servicer using FedEx to send me a new one, which FedEx has lost or mis-delivered. To make matters worse they have an automated system that makes it nearly impossible to get to a person, because it keeps telling me that my package has already been delivered. With the frequency of this occurence, they should have a prompt that says, "No! Wrong! My package was NOT delivered to ME!"

    It was sent two day delivery. It was delivered somewhere, to someone, on Friday. Starting Friday late afternoon, I called Fedex to inquire. I was told the driver was not available until Monday, so there was nothing they could do until then. Well, it's now Monday and the driver is still unavailble. Now I am told it will be tomorrow before they will know anything. I asked what happens if the driver is in the hospital or worse and unavailable for an extended time. No response.

    Next, my Credit Card company deserves some blame. They are also not available over the weekend once a card has been hacked, lost or stolen. Once I provide my CC # to the automated responder, I am forwarded to the fraud area and can't reach a person in any way. So it took until Monday afternoon to have another new card sent out to reach me, hopefully, tomorrow via "any other carrier". I will be avoiding Fedex whenever possible!

    The delivery was scheduled on Saturday. I was at home, waiting for the package, and then suddenly a delivery exception showed up in the travel history, claiming that I was not at home. But I WAS AT HOME THE WHOLE DAY AND DID NOT SEE ANY delivery attempt from FedEx. They claimed that the only option is to "re-attempt" a delivery on Tuesday, and there is no other options for me to complain. I want the package ASAP but it seems that FedEx is skilled in using delivery exception as an excuse for not delivering the package.

I work night shift by the way. So I waited up Tuesday and stayed in the living room waiting for their attempt and once again received no doorbell ring or call. I know I couldn't have missed them.

    On Wednesday, I put up a note with an attention to FedEx to ring the bell. I even sat on the step outside with my daughters and waited. I received a a message on my phone saying an attempt was made and I had to look around because I didn't know flash worked for them for me to miss their truck pull up, a person to get out with my package and bypass me to make said attempt.

    I called. They asked what sort of residence I had and I gave them the details. They said they will look into it.

    On 3rd Oct 2019 we had couriered a valuable item of one of my client from FedEx Kalitala Road to Tegharia (intercity courier). In our receipt ** they had clearly mentioned that it will be delivered on the 5th Oct 2019 on a PRIORITY OVERNIGHT basis but unfortunately it has not been delivered till now and no status have been updated or shared with us. From 5th Oct till today we have called FedEx customer care and have spoken to a minimum of 10 executives, supervisors and managers who have yet not given us a concrete answer as to where our courier is currently or the delivery person's number.

    Whenever we have asked them regarding the status after holding the phone for hours they have told us unanimously that due to Durga Puja they cannot do anything about it and it was our choice to choose them for our courier to be shipped and that they have not asked for it. They have also told us that they don't have any idea where our courier is because they have given the job to a third party vendor and that they don't have any information or contact details of them. So am I giving my courier to the topmost courier company FedEx or just a local nameless vendor?

    My question to FedEx is that why have you taken the courier by PRIORITY OVERNIGHT basis and have promised a delivery by the 5th Oct? This is a real harassment and misbehaviour from their end. Neither are they telling us the status nor giving us an option for self collection from Kalitala Branch. They are forcing us to wait unendingly without handing over our valuable courier.

    After reading the above issue do you feel that this is our fault to trust FedEx regarding all our official couriers sent from Happyning? How can an International courier company give an excuse of Durga pujo which has already ended on the 8th Oct as a matter of fact and not given us a chance to retrieve our courier back?

    It is a shame that FedEx India has showcased such horrible service in front of our NRI clients. We regret to say that this is the last time we will take any kind of service from them. So either you give us our courier back or have the package delivered by today. YOU CANNOT HOLD SOMEBODY'S PACKAGE LIKE THIS WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT.

    Bought a product and they shipped FedEx. A huge 6 foot by 4.5 foot package was shipped but never arrived. Claimed to have delivered on Aug 27th at 10 am. I was home all day. Nothing delivered or attempted to be delivered and I had clear view of driveway, porch & front door all day! I phoned FedEx asking them to ask driver where he delivered this huge heavy package. If it was delivered to a neighbor by accident and the neighbor kept it, I wanted to know. FedEx told me that they could not give me that info "for security reasons"!!!!! Talked to supervisor who said they would look into it and was given a claim #. Nothing happened in a month! Ten email attempts and only got form email responses that addressed NOTHING I asked about but repeated lie of delivery story. Told me "case closed".

    I caught the FedEx driver delivering on my street. Asked where he delivered my huge box and he said he didn't deliver that day. Asked for his supervisor's phone number. He gave me a Texas residential phone number (I am in WA state)for a "Charlie". I called "Charlie" and the guy played along and said he would find out where my package was delivered and then.... nothing. Emailed another 5 times complaining about THIS turn of events and got the same runaround form email replies that addressed nothing but said that only the shipper could file a claim.

    I found on the FedEx site policies that a recipient could file a claim (to be settled with shipper). FedEx are repeatedly ignoring their stated policy. A $125.00 6 foot by 4.5 foot packaged table was just stolen from me and they refuse to do ANYTHING about it and refuse to even respond in an intelligent respectful way. Asked another driver what to do and he said; "Well, there are a lot of packages that get "miss-delivered". I now believe their driver stole my package.

    Today we were eagerly awaiting our couch to be delivered. After being given false update from FedEx that it would be delivered early on Thursday, we patiently waited until Friday the scheduled delivery date to receive the package. There was no signature needed, and nothing at all specified needing to be home to receive the package. After running a quick errand, I received a notification the package was attempted to be delivered but since nobody was home they took it back. I immediately called customer service and the nice gentleman contacted the driver so he could come that same day to deliver again since we would be home. Again, nothing specified needing to be home for this package to get delivered, and we have received many FedEx packages simply left at our door previously. The customer service rep even added a note for the driver, so specifically instruct him to leave it at the door.

    After being told the driver was coming back, we patiently waited a few more hours. I then called customer service again and a woman contacted the driver only to find out he already returned to his station and could not come back out to make the delivery. After asking her to please do something, she said he can make an "attempted" delivery tomorrow, Saturday, but this is only an attempt and not guaranteed. Even though our package did NOT require a signature, FedEx decided we can't have our couch yet. If your drivers have the authority to decide last minute a package should not be left, THEY SHOULD HAVE TO NOTIFY THE RECIPIENT that they are making this ultimate decision. Even though the package is not theirs and no longer in their care, they are in control of my products and when I get them, despite delivery dates and guaranteed shipments.

    If this is how your drivers deliver, then this needs to be an open line of communication between driver and recipient. If the drivers are going to decide last minute not to deliver packages, the recipient should be notified that their shipping terms are being CHANGED. That fact that your driver can change these terms without any prior consent or notification or communication, is absolutely absurd. I was home the entire week waiting this package, and ran to the store hoping it would come because I was told this package would be delivered with or without me home. But I guess your driver liked our couch too much or they simply didn't want to bring it up a flight of stairs before their weekend. I am extremely upset with how FedEx has handled this delivery.

I Contacted their customer service within the hour, trying to get them to hold it in their distribution center in Myrtle Beach for me to pick it up. I was told that the shipper has to give permission. After getting the shipper to call them and give that permission, FedEx representative informed me that the package was back at their distribution center in Florence, which is another town over an hour drive from me, and that I can drive there to pick it up or wait till the following day to receive it!

After calling FedEx customer service AGAIN and talking to a representative, she told me that my package never went out today because my business was “closed”!!

Our website even clearly states our business hours and that we’re open on Friday. That was one of the lousiest excuses I’ve ever heard! I asked to speak to a supervisor and file a complaint. My call was transferred to a supervisor, whom I had to tell the whole story from the beginning. I explained to her that the excuse of “their business was closed” have been used falsely multiple times before and many of our packages were delivered on later dates than they were supposed to.

She called me back only to repeat the same lines, which make you feel like you’re talking to a robot, saying that the drivers are all out already and if I want I can always drive to that other town or wait till Monday to receive my package! When I asked her if she was a supervisor she didn’t confirm and told me that they are all “equal” at the customer service department! I filed the complaint and asked that someone follows up with me to let me know how that is going, and she replied that their policy forbids sharing the progress of internal complain handling with customers!

    I made sure to let her know that we will be taking our business elsewhere!

No matter if it's labeled handle with care they stand outside the fence and fling it over the fence to land on lawn, bushes sidewalk. One even made it to the roof. But what sent me over the edge was the latest driver refuses to latch the front gate. He just walks through and out again not bothering to close it. I have a small dog and if I open the front door he has a straight line to run out into the street. Why do people have gates..just for decoration? Totally unacceptable and irresponsible behavior.

I am required to pick up this heavy printer from a Fedex station. I am OVER 80 years old and do not drive.

    If I do not pick up the printer it will be returned to the seller and I will be required to pay for it. I really want the printer, but have no way of getting it from Fedex whose local drivers refuse to make the delivery, sticking to the 3 delivery rule. They refuse to accept responsibility about their first two delivery attempts even though I was not alerted as to those dates, and, it is even possible that they weren't even at my address because there were no stickers indicating it. The printer I ordered is fairly heavy, so maybe the Fedex drivers are not willing to carry it to my apartment even with their package delivery equipment.

    I have emailed customer service 3 times in 3 days and no response yet. My question is very easy…. I just want my packages delivered to my door and not left at the leasing office in my apartments. The drivers just need to do their job they are paid for, that's it. I am recently disabled, cannot drive and use a walker. I cannot get my packages, even if I wanted to. I have to wait up to a week to find someone to inconvenience and that is available that can come over and get my packages for me. I sent this same request to UPS and they responded by email that very same day and also had someone call me. Packages will now be delivered to my door, like they should. I encourage everyone to use UPS and forget FedEx.

    FedEx is officially the worst company if you want your packages to be delivered. There’s a gate outside my condo, to which every other company can get in, except FedEx. Several times they left me a note at the gate with instructions for how I can pick up the package myself. Spoiler alert, this doesn’t work either. Yesterday I wasted a trip to a relatively far location (promptly following the instructions). Today, when they were again “unable” to deliver my package, I wasted a phone call to Fedex customer service, because it turns out I have to contact the shipper and have them contact FedEx back so that I can have the package available for pick up at a closer location. As I’m writing this review, I still don’t know what’s going on with the package that I paid a lot of money for, all I know is that there was no issue for my money to leave my bank account, but a lot of issues for my things to be delivered to my house.

    I ordered a phone from Best Buy and opted to have it delivered. I received emails that it will be delivered on specific day. I was tracking my package over at FEDEX website and it says that it will be delivered on that day with a text alert that was confirming the delivery. No delivery and the website still says the same thing, this was going for a good 5 days posting wrong information about delivery and nobody from their end even reached out about the delay. It was confirmed to me by Best Buy that the package was picked up by FEDEX and when I called the customer service, they told me that they don't have the package yet. Finally, they delivered it and just left a tag at the call box of the apartment and did not go in to my apartment.

    I went to FEDEX location to pick up my package and when I opened it right at the location it was totally damaged. Seal was broken, box was damaged and the phone looks like it was hammered through 'cause you can see where they hit it. I showed it to the location manager and was advised they can do nothing about it and told me to call their hotline. I called the hotline and was advised to call the shipper. I called the shipper and will send a replacement but I reiterated not to ship it too through FEDEX. FYI, they just put it in a regular plastic envelope with no bubble wrap or any kind of protection and not even a fragile label. NEVER TO FEDEX AGAIN!

    I have recently had yet another horrible experience with FedEx near the Shoreline in Connecticut. This experience was enough to now lead me to inquire if a company is using FedEx. If the answer is yes, and no other shipper option is available I will be taking my business elsewhere. I recently ordered a headboard from Wayfair.com. I attempted to have the item delivered to an authorized drop location (because having a full time job kind of prevents you from being home from 9-5.) The item was too large to accepted at the location and was refused. Fine. Not a problem. But let me tell you what was the problem. Customer Service representatives that are stationed in Guatemala.

    So after I got off work and was free to call customer service to attempt to make arrangements to either pick up my package, or have it re-delivered I was told this was not possible. I was instructed that I would need to call the shipper and have them make said changes..so I did. I called Wayfair, let them know what I was told and asked that we work out a way (also I paid an extra $100 plus dollars guys for expedited shipping) to have the package delivered after 5 or on Saturday..

    Wayfair did what was asked of them. Then I received notice from FedEx that there was an issue with delivery address. I call FedEx customer service (in Guatemala) who doesn't even have the updated information and is telling me to still call the shipper. I insisted on speaking to a state side manager at this point who states she would make arrangements for my package to be on an evening truck to be delivered by 8 pm (Yesterday Friday 13th) and that she would call me back to confirm this. I never received a call back so I called backed. Was routed through Guatemala (still had inaccurate information) asked to be transferred state side yet again...and then sought clarification on the plan.

    So I waiting from 5-8 pm in the parking lot of the building I'm moving into this weekend for a FedEx delivery that never arrived. Waited until 8:15 and called customer service (Guatemala) rerouted to Texas representative, only to be told there was nothing they could do. All locations that would have information was closed. Never spoke to 1 person in CT ever. Never afforded an opportunity to pick the package up myself.

    ALSO let me not forget to add that after I so patiently waited for the package on Friday 13th until 8:15. And called customer service (in Guatemala) re-explained the dilemma (before the transfer to a Texas rep). The rep in Guatemala says "Aha. I see what the issue is with the package delay. There was an air traffic control issue." Yes. Even though the package had already been refused by a spot in Ct. The audacity of the rep to tell me air traffic control was now involved. So guess what guys. I called Wayfair, explained this disgusting experience and received a refund. No more FedEx for me if I can help it.

I happened to notice something by my front gate. The package was laying in a mud puddle right inside my yard. The driver was too busy/lazy to open the gate and walk 10 feet to my front door. Instead he apparently threw it over the fence and left. It had been raining, and then rained all day, so my package sat in muddy water all day. When I opened it water poured out of the bag.

The service collapses and everything done by each and every player along the way is wrong. I also experienced a serious lack of integrity among the supervisory personnel when the matter was escalated. In summary, when Fedex is asked to do something outside its normal activity it turns into one of the worst-performing companies in the world.

    My nightmare—for so it became--with Fedex lasted from the morning of August 29th to the afternoon of August 30th. By the time it finished playing out, not only was the result failure, but I felt like I had been put through what amounted to torture. Everything which every Fedex representative did was wrong, and I encountered universal ineptitude. Please bear with me, because you cannot grasp the depth of the ordeal without a description of all the individually little things they put me through—in the process of failing to do what I was requesting.

    Here is the story. A package I sent to Virginia was due to be delivered in the early afternoon of August 29th. Without getting into details, it contained something that I valued highly. That same morning, however, I learned that the recipient had just left for a month’s travel (of course, she should have told me, but that is another story). Upon my calling, a Fedex representative informed me that the driver, working out of the Manassas, Virginia, station, had the box, but said he’s send a message to him to not deliver it, and it would probably reach him in time. I was pleased.

    When I called back at 2:00, a woman told me the box had been delivered at 12:30. But a message had been sent to him, I said! This message, the woman answered, had been sent via an indirect route that could take up to 24 hours to reach the driver. I complained loudly—there would be no one at that house for a month!-- and she was condescending. She offered me no good options.

    I called again at 4:00 and reached yet a third person. This person told me he would call the driver directly and ask him to go back to the house and pick up the package. This was interesting, because it was the first indication that a) the representative could reach the driver directly, which I’d been told was absolutely not possible and b) that the driver could be sent back the same day to retrieve it. So everything agents #1 and #2 thought they knew was wrong. And of course, speed was crucial to avoid the package being stolen. I even offered to pay extra for having the driver go back out that afternoon.

    At 6:00 I called back. As the package had not been picked up, I escalated the issue to the supervisory level, to a woman named Donna. She was so nice and so sympathetic. Everything the Fedex representatives had done was indeed wrong and she was so sorry! She would get on the phone at that moment and find the driver and tell him to drive out to the house to get the package back. This should take her about half an hour. She would call me back, and if I wanted to reach her all I had to do was call the main number and ask for Donna in the Customer Advocate team. And then she disappeared. She never called me back and she never answered my messages. In the multiple calls I made that night I learned that no driver ever went back that evening.

    There was no alternative to creating a new order for the package to be picked up the next day, presuming it had not already been stolen. As the driver was going to be dispatched out of the Manassas, Virginia, Fedex station, I called there at 8:00 on the next day, September 30. I gave Zack, the supervisor, all the background, and stressed the importance of the driver going there as early as possible.

    Zack was so sympathetic! He was disturbed about what had happened, and promised to send out the driver to pick up the package early. He was going to call me back as soon as he had something. Well, as was the case with Donna, Zack never called me back. I tried calling him but I never managed to find him again. I talked to another manager named who said the record was indicating that the driver had gone out at some point, but it was not clear if he’d gotten a package or not. The record eventually showed that the carrier had arrived only after 12:30. So much for my pleading that he go early and Zack’s assurances.

    When I called Manassas in the early afternoon, Fedex had yet one bit of torture for me. Using the tracking number I provided her, a young person informed me of what had happened, reading from the database. In a tone of authority, she said the carrier would have to return because the package had not been ready for delivery. “You mean the package was not there? That means it was stolen,“ I said. Absurdly, I had to satisfy her so that she’d transfer me to a supervisor. I had to waste time and energy going through the story and explaining that the carrier knew full well that the package’s absence meant it had been stolen. Why in God’s name were they saying the package was not ready for pickup????

    Eventually I understood. Fedex’s procedure is so rigid that the driver has to check off an explanation from a specific written list. “Stolen” is not included, so he checked off “not ready.” Interestingly, this designation triggers that he is going to return twice more to see if the package is “ready” because that is what the protocol calls for, although he, I and everyone else involved understand that Fedex’s delay allowed the package to be stolen before the driver’s first trip.

    That is where the situation stands now-- Fedex’s repeated ineptitude allowed my package, which contained things that were important to me, to be stolen. This is profoundly sad for me. Furthermore, the company turned the process itself into a painful personal ordeal; as long as this description has been, I’ve provided only the highlights of something that became sheer torture. Between the 29th and the 30th I talked to a good dozen representatives over many phone calls that easily consumed six or seven hours of that 24-hour period. And I still face more difficulty ahead-- the task of being reimbursed for its full value, which is sure to be protracted, deeply frustrating and probably unsuccessful.

    What I have found in Fedex is a huge systemic failure when responding to anything that deviates from normal procedure. Repeatedly Fedex representatives worked on the basis of an understanding of specific rules that turned out to be incorrect in crucial ways. The first representative could have contacted the driver in time to stop the delivery; the second representative could have offered to send the driver back that very afternoon. The contents of the box could have been saved from falling in the hands of thieves.

    Furthermore, the company is so rule-bound that, knowing the package was stolen, it puts down its absence to its “not being ready,” and then proceeds to carry out the protocol which this triggers. Dealing with the individual representatives is aggravating and time-consuming, because each person demands from you a complete explanation of the whole sequence of events. I remember with special vividness when I was already exhausted trying, as I described above, to convince a representative that the package’s absence was due to theft and not to the “package not being ready,” as the database said (and if the system says so, it must be true, right?).

    I am even more pained, however, by the shabby personal behavior. Supervisors Donna and Zack both talked such a good game. Both commiserated with me so sympathetically and both vowed to solve the problem. Donna was going to send the carrier right back out to get the package on the 29th and call me back, and Zack was going to send the carrier out early on the 30th and call me back. Neither did what they promised and both avoided having further contact with me. It is not just unprofessional, but there was a total lack of personal integrity.

    Is this what Fedex teaches them—to promise the customer whatever he wants, because in the end that customer is unable to find that supervisor again? This experience, in conclusion, has given me a peek behind the curtain. The well-oiled, precision machine is only one side of Fedex. I have glimpsed mediocrity, lack of proper training, poor judgment, and shabby personal behavior. I would say that Fedex has a lot to fix, but I have no reason to think it cares.

    I had poor experience with the delivery of the order. Delivering living trees from the southern state, they left the tree without water, light and air for four days in the truck. 68 miles were left to the addressee, but they left it for 4 days in inappropriate conditions. Previous order delivered with a small fruit tree 4 days earlier. There is definitely no responsibility, quality and understanding of the work performed. Live trees are very important to deliver on time as they can die. Improve your service!

    FedEx delivered my package to the wrong location. My husband and children were home at the time FedEx said they delivered the package, it wasn’t delivered. I immediately contacted FedEx customer service. Informed them my husband was home, the package was nowhere to be seen. They asked if there was another house nearby with a similar address, which there was. I drove by like they requested, but no package was out front of the other house. They asked for a description of my home and a picture, I promptly provided the requested information. They sent three emails asking for the exact same information, which I provided three separate times. With each response, I got a confirmation email stating they received my email with a picture of the email I sent, so I know they were seeing everything.

    I keep asking for updates on what will be done to fix this problem and am told someone will reach out to me. Yeah, someone reached out 10 days later to inform me since it had been over a week since the package was delivered there was nothing they could do and that I needed to contact the retailer. Didn’t matter that I immediately contacted them within minutes of the delivery notification. They never had any intentions of correcting their mistake. My two-year-old never got his toy boxes.

Last week, FedEx again sent a confirmation that my order, an expensive end table, was delivered. I knew it wasn't, as I was home all day and could see my front door from my home office. I was told I'd have to file a claim. Fortunately, before I began the process of the claim, a FedEx supervisor called to tell me the driver never delivered the item, and that he was fired, as he was reporting packages as delivered when they were not. At least they made it right, but not after a lot of aggravation.

    I bought an item on 8/18/19 from Walmart.com. They shipped it via Fedex and it was supposed to arrive on 8/23/19. I checked the tracking info on that day and it said my package was on the truck and out for delivery. It wasn’t delivered. I thought maybe this delivery required a signature and that’s why they hadn’t delivered it. I called customer service the following morning and the young lady from India assured me that no signature is required and that the package would be delivered that day. I checked the tracking info again and now it said my delivery would be made by end of day 8/24/19. Believe it or not, the delivery was again not made. I called customer service again that evening to find out what was going on and I spoke to another agent in India. He opened a case because they apparently lost the package. The package being 37”x17”x7”.

    It seems losing a package that size would require effort. If only they would put that kind of effort into finding it. About an hour after the case was opened, I received a call from a fedex agent here in the states. She told me she was working on my case and assured me my package would be delivered on the following Monday. She also told me she would call me again on Monday to follow up. The package was not delivered on Monday nor did I receive a follow up phone call. It’s now Tuesday morning and the tracking on my package hasn’t been updated since Saturday. It just says “no delivery date available at this time”.

    I also called customer service on Monday night after the third missed delivery and spoke to a man here in the states who just couldn’t seem to care less about my issue or that no one had called me as promised. He told me he would add a note to the case that said I would be expecting a call Tuesday morning. I said thanks and he hung up without another word. I decided to write this review while I waited for the call that I know isn’t going to come. Going forward, I will never buy anything that has to be shipped via fedex. If they’re the only shipping option offered by the seller, then I’ll find another seller.

Today I was told that I should just reorder from the shipper who may or may not want to because they have already shipped it out twice. FedEx is returning it even though I was told by their representative that they would do a address update to have it resent to my home.

    Today was the 10th call that we made regarding this package that was reshipped (2nd time) on 8/9/19. We received a call from FedEx on 8/12 stating that they could not find a house # and asked if they could give our phone # to the driver and it would be delivered on 8/13. We agreed. On 8/13, we did not receive a call and we saw on the website that it said it was undeliverable. Even though we had put a sign up to help with the delivery. My husband called the office immediately and asked if we could pick the package up at their local office but was told it had already been put on the truck to return to sender.

    We requested it be returned to us again. I called again on 8/16 and was told that the address had been updated to our address and it would be reshipped to us (now in TX). I called again when the date changed from 8/19 to 8/23. This date change again on 8/23 to 8/26.

My neighbor said FedEx did not give them my package and I was back on the phone with customer service again. This time more puzzled and questions. Supposedly, the FedEx worker responsible for this was sent to my neighbor who told this worker that there is no package there. My package is missing.

    I went on with customer service and asked how come my package was delivered to the wrong place, or person, twice? The FedEx worker did not leave a slip with instructions on my door, or building, and there is no name or signature from neighbor on anything. I also contacted the local FedEx branch on the Bronx, NY, and it's going to conduct an investigation on this matter and I mentioned that my building has surveillance cameras both outside and inside and the neighbor in question is part of my building management team.

    Yet, what made this experience worse was the lack of communication and instructions where some FedEx staffs did not know my package was lost in the first place and it was necessary to communicate this error along the way to prevented it from happening again. But it's gone, along with my personal information: my name and address.

When there was not room to squeeze by he gave me the middle finger and drove off. 5 days later same driver riding me again on same street screaming obscenities. It’s a 50 not an 80. Get this guy off the road. Safe driving should be their #1 priority and it obviously is not.

    FedEx claims to have delivered a single package that weighs 117 lbs. with contents costing over $300 to my front door yesterday evening at 7PM. Time sensitive materials. We do not live close to anyone (if someone is a delivery person and doesn't check the address then that is a big problem in and of itself), the address was correct and there is no other house with this address. My husband and I were home by that door in our living room at that time. FedEx has delivered to us several times before without issue. We have 2 dogs that let us know when anyone is even in our driveway. There is no way someone could get to the front door without our dogs having been barking for quite some time. I found the delivered status 17 minutes later.

    I work from home and was there all day expecting this package. We checked everywhere. The road we live on is the only way in or out of our area and has very little traffic. You know when a delivery vehicle is on it. I own a small business and receive several packages from other companies each week. Beyond that, I have a large sign with a bench at the beginning of our sidewalk (you can't miss it, purposely in the way) asking that packages be put in, on or around the bench. For one person to bring a package that heavy to my front door involves superhuman strength going up a tall, narrow, steep staircase (the reason I have the bench and sign and partially have my front deck blocked).

    Updates state it made it to the Richmond facility and was put on the truck for delivery early that morning. If the delivery person left it at a different address, that would have been a huge obvious mistake and 117 lbs. is difficult to move so you'd better be right. Since I have yet to hear from FedEx with any sort of info or update after 4 calls/chat in 18 hours, it seems more likely that driver was involved in an offense where they should be investigated. Potentially stolen and not a lost scenario. Why would someone claim to have delivered it once it got that far into the system?

    I was told by the company I purchased the materials from that it's shipped with the brand and content listed on the outside. They knew what this was. It has not arrived here yet and, according to the first FedEx rep I spoke with, there is only 75 minutes left on the clock for them to call me back with information until I can escalate this elsewhere. Every FedEx person I've spoken with today has said I have to wait for the tracking team to call me to investigate. The second rep attempted to connect me with the team, but no one answered and I was told to await their call. FedEx should be concerned that one of their employees stole or was involved in handing this to someone else.

    I never really cared for FedEx at all, but tried to give them the benefit of the doubt because all drivers and people are different, but where I currently live I have had the absolute worst experience with the FedEx driver in my neighborhood. I'm at home quite a bit because I work from home and a stay at home mom and whenever I've had a package being delivered I'm home every time so there is no reason whatsoever should I have to call the 1-800 number so many times about the multiple door tags I get saying I wasn't available when in fact I was and am.

    I got a door tag this week and again last week saying I wasn't home and I was both times and this has happened quite a bit since March and they have no way apparently of getting in touch with their drivers which I also have a problem with. FedEx make me want to stop online shopping altogether just so that there's not a possibility of me getting a package delivered by them. The driver don't even attempt to get in, don't ring my buzzer or even knock on the door and I'm sick of it. I think I'm just done with online shopping because I literally don't want another package delivered through FedEx!

    With the exception of one package, lately FedEx has not been on time with deliveries, does not pay attention to how you request placement of your packages, and does not give updates like you requested. What in the world has happened to this company? UPS is so much better. Unfortunately, you can't tell companies your choice of which company you want to deliver your packages.

    I was expecting a package. I called FedEx requesting that the package be delivered after 4pm when I would be home. First they said okay, then they called me back to say that they only make deliveries early afternoon. I asked if they could deliver to another address. They said no. So I said sarcastically, "WOW, FedEx is a great company." They hung up on me. I had to call again to discuss how I might get my package with all their limitation. They said they could deliver to a drug store near my house and I would have to go there to get my package. I was not happy about this, but I had no other choice.

    I went to the drug store and they could not find my package. I called FedEx again and asked if they could follow up and see what happened to my package. The person I spoke to told me she was not authorized to call the drug store. She told me I would have to call the drug store and have them call FedEx. Ultimately, my package was found at the drug store, but FedEx was so incredibly uncooperative, I don't know how they stay in business!

    Much like everyone else in today's society of online purchasing, we've had a lot of experience with UPS, USPS and FEDEX, as well as Amazon Prime delivery. FEDEX is consistently the WORST performer time and time again. The most recent example occurred today while I awaited a package that required signature for delivery. I did all I could reasonably do to get the package delivered to me as I should expect. I signed up for text alerts from FEDEX. Their idea of text alert was "Estimated delivery by 8:00 pm". Mind you this text was sent in the morning. Nothing like a 10 hour window to narrow it down. Good job, FEDEX. Reminds me of the cable TV installers of the 1990s.

    So, there I was, in my house waiting, in my kitchen, 15 feet from the front door. I get an alert on my phone that someone has approached the front door camera. By the time I stand up, go around the kitchen hall and make it to the front door, I see the FEDEX driver pulling away. I yell "HEY!!!!". The van keeps driving. Within a few minutes I get the "courtesy" text, that no one was available to accept delivery. No knock. No doorbell ring. Nothing. I even checked to make sure the doorbell rings (it does). W.... T... H...????

    This isn't the first such bad experience I've had with FEDEX, either. On at least 3 other occasions, deliveries have been late, rescheduled or supposedly delivered unsuccessfully since "no one was there to receive the package". UPS has a much better track record for on-time deliveries without a doubt. Why any company would chose FEDEX as their courier service is beyond me.

I have given consent verbally over the Phone 4 Times. I have given consent written by email at least 4 Times. And I have sent in their Consent Form at least 3 Times. Yet they still don't have that saved on my File and every time I complain, all they do is send me another consent form to fill out, to prevent it from happening again.

    How many times needs one to confirm consent and verify one's details, before they finally put it on file and I get the parcels delivered without having to jump through administration crap because of them not being organized!!! If I had my choice, I would never use FedEx again, but because they do deliveries for Jeunesse which I like the products from, I don't have that choice yet.

    If not for the fact that I have to place a star I would have left it as 0 stars. I ordered a package from Walgreens that was supposed to come on the August first when I had bought it on July 31st. Not I admit it got here fast. But it got here fast 3 houses down. Just this alone already dropped my review down to half and what followed left me with 0 star review. Now, I live on the outskirts of town with a solid acre of land between all of my neighbors. 3 houses down is the equivalent of more than a few blocks. Not only that, I had already walked to 8 of my neighbor's houses to see where my package was. Prior to this, I checked with FedEx for a missing package report and I quote got, "well can't you just check with all of your neighbors?" as a response and nothing else.

    Incompetent. So I finally found my package three houses down. When I went to report that I found it wanted to place a customer complaint I was purposely told to first call back then they changed their answer halfway through to "I'm working on it, please wait". They basically put me on hold. However, this went on for hours so it very clear to me they were doing this on purpose so I would never be able to file the complaint.

    Incompetent. The driver, who looked at our address (we also have a sign near the road that says the first number of our address on it) gave it to the house with a number that clearly states it's not our address (it's a big ** red sign at the very edge of the driveway) at the garage door instead of the front door which squarely hits you in the face when you walk up.

    Incompetent. And finally, what I found is that on their official pages they purposely deleted all of the comments left by people who had a problem with their service and only left the response by the company. This was a complete red flag for me. As a consumer FedEx does not seems credible nor trustworthy. If I had looked them up beforehand I would have immediately thrown away the idea of ever using their service.

    Now, here's the ironic part, the service of a company reflects the people that work there and OWN IT. As such, I will not use this service ever again or buy a product that only has FedEx as an option. For anyone who wants to use FedEx or is considering using FedEx, I'd advise you to go with a different service. Ps: I've also copied and pasted this so if this post is deleted I will automatically post it again seeing as how FedEx likes to try covering up their mistakes to seem like a credible service.

    I was expecting several packages for work that required direct signature. I am signed up for FedEx delivery manager. As soon as I received email notification that FedEx had the packages, I went online and selected the 'hold at location' for the Walgreens in Black Mountain NC for each package. I did so for better delivery and to avoid the chance of missing the driver at my home. Selecting hold at Walgreens means the driver does not have to travel to a rural area, go through a gated community with narrow winding roads and 15 mph speed limit or go through local road construction. I received 2 of 3 packages. The 3rd package has been sitting at the Mills River NC facility for several days.

    I contacted customer service for assistance and got nothing but improbable excuses and 'sorry for inconvenience'. Customer Service told me that placing the 'hold at location' is what has caused the delayed delivery. If it is true that placing this type of hold can cause delivery delay then consumers should be forewarned. If I had been, I would not have placed the hold for pick-up on the packages. It is very important that I get the packages on time.

    The other 2 packages did not have any issue although I placed the same hold at Walgreens for pick-up on them. It has cost me several days wages and delays start of my benefits by an extra 30 days as I am not able to begin my new job without this equipment. It is not merely inconvenient, it is very costly. I still do not have my package, am not able to start work, and am told that my only recourse is to wait until someone finally puts the package on a truck for delivery as it went through the Mills River NC facility and you cannot pick-up at that location. There is simply no excuse of this inferior level of job performance. FedEx needs to either improve performance or develop workarounds so that consumers can compensate for their incompetence and receive their items.

I don't request a Direct Signature unless I need the signature for my records that the papers were delivered and received by someone. Both times I have checked "Direct Signature" and both times the tracking information states "Delivered - Signature Not Required." I was told by the receiving city that the sending city is incorrectly entering what is on the Airbill.

    I have sent the copy by email and by fax to FedEx showing that "Direct Signature" was in fact checked. When I call Customer Service they see the same info I do when looking at the tracking report. I called to ask for a number or email to write to the local office but they would not give me ANY information. Obviously I will have to stop using their services because it is imperative that I have a signature on the receiving end. They have left me with no choice and horrible customer service.

    Overnight letter has been repeatedly mishandles to cause a 5 day delay. Letter first sent to Memphis from Rocklin Ca. First error...package should not have been routed to Memphis. Then letter was scanned into Memphis at 12:57 pm and sat there for many hours until it was sorted for a trip to Quebec, Canada. Second error. Package delay required it to be sent to another address which was never recorded by case manager in notes. Third error. Supervisor now says she has no idea when the package will leave Canada. When I then queried that if I were in Quebec now and put a letter into a FedEx office would they give me a time and day of delivery....to which she said "yes". So I said "Why can't this letter in Canada have the same information as any other letter being mailed by FedEx?" I heard the double Jeopardy music playing in the background. If you got important docs to send quickly....FedEx should be your selection the way.

    I wish there was an option for zero stars! Absolute worst delivery service ever! Last Christmas they lost a couple of my packages then tried to tell me to “check under a bush” for them. Now today I was waiting for a package that was originally scheduled to be delivered yesterday and got rescheduled for today. As I was standing next to my glass front door with my 110 pound dog sleeping in front of it I got a text alert that my delivery had been rescheduled for Monday because I was not home two minutes earlier which I most definitely was and I know for 100% fact that no one had been anywhere near my house because I would’ve seen them and the dog would’ve gone nuts. So I checked the security system and cameras and sure enough no one had been there.

    I immediately called FedEx & they said the driver couldn’t come back. Umm, he was never here! So I got a supervisor that assured me the package would be delivered by the end of the day. I waited 4 hours and called back to be sure and that representative confirmed that my package would be delivered. Now ten minutes before Ground stops delivering for the day, still no package, I call back and the representative tells me I will most definitely not see my package until Monday. I am furious, I needed this item for the weekend. Basically they blew smoke up my ** all day, they have GPS in the scan tools so they know darn well that driver wasn’t in front of my house when he scanned that package as me not being home. Who knows, maybe we would be better off with drones delivering packages! I’ve always been against technology taking over everything but some humans have become so lazy!!

    I Called for a prepaid pick-up. They promised it would be picked up the next day. I am disabled and canceled a Dr. Appointment to wait. The next day I get a call, the driver says my address doesn't exist. The Agent left off my apartment Number after repeating it to me three times. They set up redelivery the same day. Four calls later they called again to say the driver said I wasn't home. I was by my door the entire day and have a loud doorbell. So the driver lied or cannot read apartment numbers. Another two calls. On hold for 10 minutes. Only to say that the driver says I did not answer the door, LIES. I had to cancel a surgery followup appointment to wait for another day.

    The Return package had to be picked up that day because I was going into the hospital that Monday. This was a Thursday So I had to stay home on Friday too and wait. All I got from customer service was an admission that it was their error but I had to wait all day again and pay My Dr a 100 dollar cancellation fee.

I did this and they said it's on another truck to be delivered that afternoon. 5pm comes and goes. No package. I call back to FedEx and get told my package didn't have enough priority to be delivered that day. I express my displeasure so they transfer me to a customer advocate who contacts the manager at distribution center and they promise delivery. Still no package 4 hours later.

The logs of deliveries are incorrect and the agents just do not want to hear when you try to explain how the info log is wrong. The correct log for my delivery:

    1. Missed the package because our doorbell doesn't work, call for a reattempt of delivery. Asked to get updates on my cellphone so I can take the delivery.
    2. Left a post-it note with contact info for the delivery guy.
    3. Missed the guy by 10 minutes ( was waiting next to the window, didn't see the FedEx truck, the delivery guy must have been on foot for the delivery) and called the customer care immediately at 2:40. Apparently, the matter was escalated and there was supposed to be another attempt by 3:30 the same day. Sat outside the house till 3:45 pm.

    4. Left a door tag to leave the package outside if no one answers.

    No third attempt of delivery was made. Wrong info logged in the system. Uncooperative customer care agents who are rude to you and talk over you and then pretend that they do not understand you. Highly unprofessional employees in North Syracuse area. I understand that I missed my delivery but I also cooperated with them by providing them with all the tools they need to get the package to me.

Not only that, I could not find out who controls that specific drop box. This package was worth over $150 dollars and I can't even file a claim because, that's right--you guessed it!!

    Our Local FedEx driver, Julio, is scheduled to pick up our outbound shipments between 2 and 4 PM daily. Often times he shows up between 1 and 1:30, and takes the outbound parcels that are packaged for shipment at that time. Often times, our properly treated field hands are currently still weighing and packaging shipments at this time. Julio, not wanting to wait, just takes what is ready at that time and does not wait for our orders to be fulfilled. The items do not show as scanned until long after our rushing driver has left our compound. This leads me to assume he is falsely reporting that he was at our pick up location at our scheduled time.

    Lately a very big, powerful and important client of ours has had shipments short 4, 7 and 12 Kilos short. This is not good for our business. With consequences reaching far beyond financial bottom lines. Rival car... companies can swoop in, stealing valuable partners and pipelines from us. If things keep continuing the way they are, so that Julio can reduce his work day ever so slightly, heads will roll. And in my line of work, that is more than just a saying. This needs to be fixed.

    My first and only claim I ever made with FedEx and it was denied before I sent in the requested information…? According to FedEx when you ship a parcel with them it is covered with up to $100 of Insurance without having to purchase any additional insurance. This was told to me by the Rep at my Local FedEx Office. I recently sold a Denon AV Stereo Receiver, I had a similar Yamaha Stereo Box with the formed styrofoam inserts as well as additional foam blocks for added support topped off with the styrofoam popcorn fill.. This receiver was packed extremely well even by my standards. And finally secured at all seams of the box with packing tape. When the buyer received the receiver he immediately messaged me with photos showing a large dent on the right hand side of the receiver.. Because of this impact the electronic internals were now damaged as the stereo could not generate or reproduce sound.

    Now whoever at FedEx who was physically handling this box must have been playing soccer with it or seeing if it could fly off a building. Had to be something drastic to cause this type of damage as the package was truly re-enforced and packed so well. I had then proceeded to file a damage claim on FedEx’s website.. I gave the required information.. Showed photos of the receiver from before and after. 4 Pictures total and then submitted the claim being very optimistic that it would get approved as this was a fully Legit claim. I will mention I have in the past had 2 claims with the USPS for damaged packages and both were approved as the process was quick and fair and refund checks were issued swiftly. At this point I was just trying to recoup half of the total sale so I could honor a full refund to the buyer who was being very patient on his end. The claim said it would take 5 to 7 business days to render a decision.

    After a couple of days I got an email from FedEx requesting additional information?? Proof of value such as invoice stating the cost, photocopy of FedEx receipt, any other applicable documentation etc.. So I gathered all of the requested paperwork including 2 high res printout of the Damage/Dent. I could of faxed this info back or send it via Postal Mail.. I chose the paper mail route. I mailed this packet off to the “Cargo Claims Dept” on Monday 7/2/19. Later that evening I got a letter from FedEx DENYING my claim?? WTH…?? How could this happen as I just sent the packet 3 hours earlier in the day…? Of course there was no reason given for the denial. Just some LAME generic “Unfortunately we cannot approve your claim, yadda yadda.”

    I couldn’t believe it.. How can a company as big as FedEx making millions of $$’s deny a claim which completely shows their negligence?? It left my hands and went into FedEx’s possession on June 11th from CA till it got delivered in MD on June 15th so for 5 days this box was being brutalized. I’m certain the buyer who paid his hard earned money for a Denon Stereo wanted it to be a functioning one but FedEx made certain it wasn’t.

    Bottom line, is I am out $198. $145 for the stereo and whopping $53 freight charge. Not to mention the shady practices of FedEx which was completely shown here. The fact that my claim was Denied before they even received the packet with additional information in which they requested confirms their claims process is flawed. I believe FedEx deliberately denies most if not all of their claims as they probably dont get many people to challenge or give blowback. Well not only will I never use another service from FedEx ever again but I will be sharing my experience with FedEx on their social media sites as people need to know what this company is about and how they treat customers with valid claims. Case Number: **.

    Three times in the last two months I have accepted FEDEX's offer to choose when my deliveries would be made. The first time my package was to be delivered on May 11 between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m.; it arrived at 1:56 p.m. I missed a very important lunch with friends I hadn't seen in 20 years. The second time my package was supposed to be delivered between 5:00 and 8:00 p.m.; it was delivered at 3:56 p.m. and today the packages, and I paid for all 3 packages, were to be delivered between 5:00 and 8:00 p.m., they were delivered at 11:16 a.m. FedEx takes my money and then when they don't honor their offer for which I have email and text confirmation, it takes them up to a week to reimburse me.

    FEDEX IS THE MOST DISHONEST COMPANY IN THE WORLD. As far as their Customer Service goes, if I have to hear one more "We're very sorry for your inconvenience." I will go postal! Apologies are not what I want. I want to be reimbursed for the Lyft rides to/from home that I had to take praying the whole time that the packages had not been stolen. I said that to the Customer Service person, that FEDEX should reimburse me and give me something for the aggravation they had caused; she replied that they don't do that. Their Customer Service is worthless. Let me also add that last week when I was home to receive a delivery, there was a big sign on the door telling the FEDEX delivery person that I was home and which bell to ring, he brought the box up to the door and slammed it to ground all in the direct view of my neighbor. He rang the bell and ran back to his truck and drove off.

    By the time I got to the door he was gone. My neighbor told me what he had just witnessed and sure enough 15 of the cans were dented so bad they had to be thrown out and 2 cans had exploded upon impact. It was a mess. Is FEDEX going to reimburse me for the time and inconvenience of cleaning up the mess? I took pictures and Chewy.com reimbursed me for the unusable cans but that's not the point.

    Also, the 3 boxes that cam 6 hours early today were supposed to be delivered on Saturday but a FEDEX Customer Service person who was obviously at a huge phone bank probably in India given his accent gave me the wrong instructions cancelling my Saturday delivery and there was no way to undo what he did. Someone told me that he probably did it on purpose because these phone bank employees hate having to listen to complaining Americans all day so they do things like this to make life as miserable for us as possible. I have already told Chewy.com that as long as they use FEDEX I cannot order from them again. That is not the mantra in my online shopping. If FEDEX is the vendor they choose for delivery, I can't shop there.

    "Are you tired of receiving your packages and shipments on time and with a smile? Try FedEx! Here at FedEx, we don't value the customer in any way, shape, or form.

We'll pull that tracking off, cruise an unmarked van by your address, and sit around for 10 minutes while we wait for the GPS to click on your address, right at the very edge of where it'll register.

Here at FedEx, we'll make every effort to ensure that package never gets delivered, and when we do the "investigation" (lol) we'll rule it as the receiver's fault, so you'll never be liable for a refund ever again."

    Everyone understand what's going on here? It's not rocket plumbing. They don't have to cater to the receiver because they most likely make their money through backdoor deals with major retailers. It's most likely why major retailers use FedEx as the sole shipping option, because if anything happens to your package, they don't have to give any refunds as it's ruled as delivered, and the receiver's fault they didn't recover their order.

    Ordered a $50 vacuum on eBay. I was outside in my yard able to clearly my front door. I saw a van with some type of consulting company's decals on the side. Never heard of the company, it's why I can't remember exactly what it was, and have never seen that van ever before or since. While I was working on a car, I witnessed that van pull up to a neighboring house. It sat there for about 20 minutes. Then it backed up to directly in front of where my vehicle was parked on the side of the road. I was working on someone else's car at the time, just to clarify. It then sat there for another 15 minutes or so, and then pulled off. No one ever stepped outside the van. I could clearly see the driver through the windows, and I never saw him attempt to exit the van at any time.

    Two days, later, I receive an email saying that my package was delivered. To my belated excitement, I figured, "Oh, their system might just be a little slow updating," so I checked my front door, and to my surprise, there was absolutely nothing on my porch. The tracking said it was left at the front door. So I called them. The customer service representative informed me that my package was indeed delivered. I in turn rebutted that it in fact had never been delivered at the time the tracking stated. I told them of the mystery van, of which I received no response. Told me an investigation is opened and that they would talk to the driver. On that very first, they told me that if my shipment had not still arrived within 48 hours, to contact the seller for a refund. That I would receive a call back shortly. On that call back, about 3 hours later, the only new information available was that Andrea would be personally handling my case.

    I felt a renewed sense of optimism that my desperately needed vacuum would be located and delivered. I was sorely mistaken. Called back the next day, and there was no new info to report. I asked if they talked to the driver, and never got a straight answer. I never talked to Andrea ever again. Told me I would receive a callback by 5:00 PM that day. The phone remained silent as my suspicions grew. So I called the next day, there was still no new info and not a straight answer about the driver, was told I'd be called back by 5:00 PM again. Again, the phone did not beep. I am still in dispute. Seller said they are waiting for the results of the FedEx investigation, and then they'll be an eBay investigation. I have a good idea of how it will go.

    I've ordered about 20 items this last month from various services and sellers, and have received every single one of them. The neighbors would regularly tell me about activity around my house when I'm not there, also said they never saw any FedEx truck. I'm driving to the distribution center Monday to attempt to resolve this error on FedEx's part. It didn't take me long to figure out the scam going on here, especially after reading the previous reviews here and elsewhere. The vacuum came directly from Dirt Devil and FedEx was the sole shipping option. I'd highly encourage all reviewers here to update us all on what became of their disputes.

He will stealthily sneak up to your door stick on a blank sticker-then speed away. Three times in the last year, i.e., every time I have used FedEx in the last year, the driver refused to knock even though I am awake and expecting my package.

    Your FedEx driver has decided that your $60 postage does not warrant his attention anymore- he would prefer that you make his life easy and pick it up at the office.

FedEx always disappoints. USPS is a federal agency, and it is a federal offense to mess with their deliveries. Signature required is when they take it to your door unless your mailman is a sweetheart and brings it and rings it for you. Our UPS guy always delivers to the door signature required or not. With both of those carriers you can pick up locally if for some reason they cannot deliver. FedEx requires you pick up at JFK airport. Good Luck with that! FedEx always disappoints????

    On a rare occasion we receive a package on time with no issues from FEDEX. Unfortunately more often there are issues with the delivery our purchases. The most recent one is when the package was scanned showing package was on the van and then at 8 pm it showed that they didn't attempt a delivery. When I called about it, I was told it was never put on the van, but it would be delivered today.

    Another time, my husband ordered a large tool. The terminal manager called to ask about delivery and my husband explained our road and said an 18 wheeler could not turn around on our road. He said he would put it in a panel truck and eventually the driver called (of an 18 wheeler) and asked my husband to meet her for delivery? We were left to get a five hundred pound saw off our truck. Not sure what would have happened if we didn't own a truck. The problems go on and on. I could count on FEDEX for timely deliveries and good customer service, unfortunately those days seem to be gone.

    The customer service agents with FedEx are very poor in skills. They are not knowledgeable with information dissemination. I shipped a package to Africa and firstly I was not informed of the likelihood of me paying additional custom duties aside the money that was paid to FedEx. Fine, I know FedEx does not control or regulate international countries custom duties and taxes. The worst of it all was instead of the agents to apologize and take responsibility of not informing the customers on the issue, they kept reading scripts.

    Moreso, even the tracking wasn't updated. When I track the package it was still showing information of 48 hours before the time. No one called the recipient or sender to inform them of the duties, issues or what amount needed to be paid. FedEx just dropped the package and that's it. I called to ask after waiting 48 hours about the custom & tax amount and no one has the information, but all they kept saying is it's not their fault. So, which means FedEx in USA is different from FedEx in all other part of the world.

    It is really pathetic that FedEx that one thing from the outside glare might be a good company was a very dirty and unregulated company with low standard. Their rep are not knowledgeable enough and all lack listening skill which is the most important skill in customer service. I will never ever patronize FedEx again and I am on a campaign for people to stop using FedEx.

    Urgent package needed to be picked up at residence address on Friday and shipped overnight to client with a Monday delivery. Scheduled pickup early in the day on Friday, assured it would be picked up by 5:00 and driver would bring the shipping label. I called a few hours later to make sure the pick-up would happen, and gave my pickup confirmation number and was told the pickup had been canceled. (!!!!) I did not cancel it. I set the pick-up all over again, talking to an agent and making sure the pickup would happen. Since this was urgent, I was very nervous about whether it would be picked up on time. I spoke with the Dispatcher of the local pick-up area and he told me it would be picked up by 5:00 and driver would have the label with him. THE PICKUP DIDN'T HAPPEN.

    I found out at 530 that the pickup never happened and called FedEx and they told me they would pick up on Monday. Unacceptable since package had to be in NY on Monday (pickup was in California). I had to demand a supervisor since the customer service agent only apologized and said they would pick up on Monday. Finally, I get a supervisor who told me the package would be picked up on Saturday. I asked if the driver would bring the shipping label, since the package did not have a label. He put me on hold while he talked to the local dispatcher again, and came back and told me yes the driver had the label (I verified the information/destination of the label with him and he said they would bring it with them) and pick up the package on Saturday.

    I was relieved, thinking the package would actually make it on time after all. But, guess what happened on Saturday? The driver arrives to pick up the package, doesn't bring the label, knows nothing about the label, and doesn't take the package. I find out again too late to get the package picked up. I called at 3:30 local time and they said no one could pick up the package that late. Of course, I can't have any other service get out there that day either by that time. FEDEX completely blew it. Now I had to disappoint MY CUSTOMER because YOU didn't do your job.

    You have two jobs: Pick Up Packages and Deliver Packages. That is supposed to be what you do. I have no idea how you could have screwed this up over and over again on a simple pickup. I can't believe I have to disappoint my customer because you completely are incapable of doing the one thing you're supposed to do: Pick up a package. I spoke with FedEx again Saturday and asked if I should really trust them a third time to pick up this package. The answer is: No. Now I have to tell my customer it will be late but will be there Tuesday. I cannot expect that FedEx can come through and actually do it. I have scheduled UPS to come out and pick up the package.

    I cannot believe how bad this is. I cannot believe that you could mishandle an easy job so badly that it has impacted MY COMPANY PERFORMANCE with an important customer. I cannot believe that a company can be THIS BAD at what they are supposed to do millions of times a month: pick up and deliver packages. That's all you have to do. That's the one thing you proved incapable of doing for me. I spent about 5 hours on the phone with FedEx between Friday and Saturday to ensure this pickup happened. I did everything I could possibly do. You cost me a customer. You cost me a potential bad review that will haunt my business on social media for years to come. YOU BLEW IT AND I AM REALLY REALLY ANGRY.

    Their service is terrible. I paid extra for shipping and it doesn't arrive early and when I contacted them I got no reply. My packages never arrive on time. USPS is exponentially better! They need to step up everything.

    As the recipient of a heavy item that WAS DROPPED BY FEDEX, I filed a claim. For 5 weeks they kept asking for more information, pics, and a seller waiver of claim, documentation, and more pics. The item was packed at a FedEx Office location, but ultimately FedEx Cargo Claims denied that and denied the claim. I am certain that the mission of FedEx Cargo Claims is to deny any and all claims. DO NOT SHIP ANY HEAVY ITEMS WITH FEDEX. Time after time, they have damaged heavy items. In the last month they have damaged two heavy items I ordered. Even USPS is better. If you have a heavy item, find another carrier.

    It took 3 days to sign up for delivery manager, it took 10 minutes to finalize signing up online. Then the information is either incorrect or the same as without the delivery manager. Customer service didn’t care, said it only really works with express shipments. So it’s useless with home or ground deliveries.

    So I ordered Yeezy sneakers from Yeezy.com. Although the package has no signature required, the driver didn't have snuff sense to take it back on the truck! Instead he leaves it right on a busy street in front of a gated residence. He claims to have just left it there but there were witnesses outside who asked to take the package and he ignored them. I think he stole it and I think that if a driver can leave a package anywhere because of no signature then that policy sucks and should be changed! The driver should know if it's a busy street don't leave it on the floor. I never have this problem with USPS.
