Ordered a Christmas present from Dick's, it was shipped from Syracuse to Albany. The delivery was supposed to be on Tuesday, was eventually delivered on a Friday. From what the tracking showed, it sat in Syracuse for an extra day, then upon reaching the Albany area, was loaded on the truck for delivery Thursday at 5am, rode around on the truck all day and returned to the facility at 3pm. It finally showed up on Friday, with a couple other packages, one of which wasn't even on the drivers manifest! If he hadn't been near the end of the route, he wouldn't have even noticed the extra package was on the truck, and it would have rode back on the truck again.

I paid $170 to overnight a package to VA. The package did not arrive on time. My mother used to work in management there so I know this company. The quality of service has dropped recently. One: I could not understand the phone operators on there customer service line. The accents were too thick. Two: They wouldn't hold the package until the customer came back. He was leaving on vacation. Three: We had to figure out how to put a hold on the package. Four: I have to contact them again later to try to get a refund for the overnight charges. Five: They asked me for ebay's account number? What on earth? Why would a multinational corporation give their third party seller's their account number? Bottom line: No more overnight shipments for me. They cannot be depended on.

I ordered from a (large) online retailer. In hopes of receiving something before Christmas, I placed an order with (allegedly) free deliver --based on the promise of December 19th delivery. First indication of problems: overnight message --delivery delayed until December 20th. Later in the day, December 19th, I receive a notice that delivery was attempted but no one home. December 20th, I wait all day (until 3:00 PM), not even getting a shower --but no one come. I have to leave for my Christmas duties. 10 minutes later, they allegedly attempted delivery... I spent most of the day trying to get my login to FedEx working. Password reset, etc. Never did get the email for the reset. I left for Christmas affairs. FedEx schedules delivery for December 26. FedEx is a no-show. No explanation. They reschedule for December 27th.
December 27th --FedEx claims to have attempted delivery at 9:50 AM. Simply not true. I was within feet of the door all day, so far. They didn't come; they didn't post a "door tag". They lied (or mis-delivered.) I called FedEx. They decided to put a "trace" on it, and promised (local office) to call me back no later than 5:30 PM. 5:30 PM, nothing. They're a no-show again.
I call FedEx back at 6:30. They promise to have someone call me back to update me on the trace "soon"; that was the best I could get. It is now 9:30 PM, and I still have heard nothing. I believe they have lost it, and can't locate it. Now I am so glad I did not agree to sign (and take responsibility for) leaving it without signature. Now they're saying it is reschedule for December 28th. So I am supposed to spend a 4th day waiting around for a delivery that is not likely to happen? I will never knowingly order something to be shipped via FedEx. (I used to think they were the best.)

I ordered a product from Walmart & it was to be delivered by 12-20-19. With the tracking number, it was rescheduled to be delivered on 12-21-19. No problem, still will make it before Christmas. After the package arrived in Tracy CA, it never moved again. It was to be delivered to Stockton CA, not even a hour away. The tracking number showed it to be "Pending." I called FedEx every day, asking when the package would be delivered. Every time I was told it would be by the end of the day, or tomorrow, by the end of the day, tomorrow. It didn't arrive by Christmas, and still shows to be "Pending."
When I called again the day after Christmas, after the package had been sitting at the facility in Tracy CA for 6 days, I was told that facility was behind & I would just have to wait. I even asked if I could go pick it up, but was told no. I ended up calling Walmart, explaining how FedEx didn't deliver the package I ordered 2 weeks ago & I was helped immediately. Walmart refunded my money, ordered another product for me & asked if I wanted to pick it up at the store that same day.
FedEx did absolutely nothing to help me, not to mention they lied to me every time I called, just to get me off the phone. And for them to tell me that, that facility is behind, it just isn't acceptable. Christmas isn't a new holiday, they know year after year what to expect. I will never use FedEx again. I would give them 0 stars, if I could.

Worse delivery company. We need to sign a petition to close Fedex company. They have the worse service and delivery. I’m still waiting on my package to come. It’s been in the same Fedex facility for a whole week and they are too lazy to drop it off. Sending me emails every day that they will deliver by 6pm and they never show up with my package that I paid thousands of dollars for. We need to get Fedex out of business and do service with reliable companies like UPS, Amazon and USPS.

I am very very upset with FedEx, my family sent a package of steaks and seafood from the Omaha steak company that was supposed to arrive on 12/23/19. When I tracked my package it was unable to be delivered because the mailbox number was listed instead of my unit number. I contacted FedEx and was informed that my package was sure to be delivered by the end of the following day on 12/24/19. 6pm rolls around on the 24th and still no package so I call and talk to a lady named Lisa. She was unable to even tell me where my package was located but assured me that it would still be delivered that they were just having a "scanner issue"... she could not even tell me what city or town that the delivery truck was in....
Now my package says it will not be delivered until the 26th of Dec. and the all of the food that my family sent for me to have a nice Christmas meal will be ruined because FedEx was incompetent and unable to do their job correctly. I am very upset and I urge anyone trying to send a package to avoid using FedEx at any cost. Absolutely terrible service!

Two weeks ago, I received 4 packages by FedEx of stereo equipment. One of the pieces was failing, so I contacted the company and got a waybill for FedEx to pick it up and send it back. Once it was picked up, the company sent me a replacement (Colorado to New Jersey). When the replacement arrived at my building the next week (a high rise doorman building), the driver looked at it and thought that it was the package he had picked up the week before, didn’t bring it into the apartment building, informing the doorman that he was as rejecting the shipment. I received a text that the shipment was rejected, and called the customer service number, and they said that it was an errant scan, and it should still arrive today.
Later in the day, I ran into the doorman and found out the truth. I called the csr again (about 1:00 pm) and was told that they would call the station and they would contact the driver and have him get it to me at the end of his run. This didn’t happen, and in the evening, the status was changed online to “returning to sender”. I called customer service, they tried to call the station in Jersey City, and no one answered (twice). About 11 pm, I noticed that the status was changed to loaded for delivery, and it said it should get to me the end of the day (today, 12/24). In the morning, I got a text that the package had been rejected by the recipient (me!), and I hustled downstairs. The doorman was there, but there was no FedEx truck anywhere.
I called customer service, they sent me to the tracer department and they started an inquiry, and said that it was out with the truck for delivery, but I noticed that the delivery address as now the sender’s address (with my name). I was told that they can’t change this, since the sender company has a delivery exception (they are on vacation for the holidays). I tracked down a FedEx truck in the neighborhood, but it wasn’t the one that covered my block. That driver gave me a number to call for their supervisor, as I had to go to work, so I called him, and he said he would look into it and call me back (he didn’t).
When I got home from work at 5:30 pm, I called customer service, they put me in touch with the Jersey City Station, and the person there said that the package was already on a truck being shipped back to Colorado, and the only thing I could do was to file a dispute, and that I should have called the station. When I told her that I called the station with csr several times, was told that the csr contacted the station once, and that I had talked to a supervisor, and I hadn’t gotten an answer, all she said was that she wasn’t working on that shift. I filed the dispute, and they contacted someone else at the Jersey City station that said my package was on the truck there, waiting to be shipped back to Colorado. They tagged it, but without hearing from the sender, it would still ship out on Thursday sometime. Again, the sender is on vacation all week.
I put out emails, voice mails, and forum messages to the sender to try to get them to respond, with no answer, but why should they have to ok shipment of a package to me that they shipped to me in the first place, when the only status change is that the driver rejected the shipment without any reference or consultation with me? This company is off the charts ridiculous when it comes to customer service. I now have a very expensive package being held in limbo at the station with the sender’s address on it, having to call daily to insure that it doesn’t get sent back to the sender, who is on vacation!

I was expecting a part for my truck to be delivered so I could go away for the Christmas holiday and see family three states away. The part has been at their terminal 20 minutes from here for nearly a week. They tell me I cannot pick it up, and I have to wait for it to be delivered. It just sits at their terminal day after day. Here it is December 24th. And yes it’s not been delivered. I called customer service, they promised to call Back in 30 minutes. Yes you guessed it, no call. At 5 am December 26th I am heading to the terminal with four of my heavy trucks. Until I get my package, I will park and block their entrance if necessary. I am done with this ** company.

I made a purchase online on December 12th for my son's Christmas gift. I had a 'guaranteed' delivery date of December 17th. On December 20th I had no gift and no update since the 16th, at a location which is the next state over and about 3 to 4 hours from my home. I went to the FedEx site and had a live chat and gave all the information which they asked for. Now, it is December 24, and there is still no package, no new information, and still no movement since the 16th at that same location. So, word of warning, if you want or need a package delivered on time, DO NOT use this company.

I ordered a gift for my dad and it included alcohol. Due to this, the package needed someone to sign for the package when the delivery was made. Knowing this, I waited at my house and didn't go anywhere so that I wouldn't miss the delivery. My window faces the front door, so I kept that open as to not miss the delivery as well. While sitting in my chair, I got a message notification that a delivery attempt was made and there was no answer, therefore the delivery would not occur until after Christmas. This was a complete and total lie! How can they say a delivery was attempted when nobody came to my house? I was waiting there the whole time on purpose.
I called customer service and all they kept saying was there was nothing they could do. How can this company lie to their customers like this? My dad isn't going to get his Christmas present on Christmas this year because of a driver's lie. Absolutely terrible customer service with no sympathy or remorse whatsoever. I will no longer use FedEx Ground for deliveries after this horrible experience.

Package was supposed to arrive 12/21. Arrived in Buffalo that day, then was delayed multiple times with an estimated delivery date of 12/24 due to "weather phenomenon" that doesn't exist. Customer service had no other information on why, just claimed the weather phenomenon was scanned accidentally (unlikely). Travels multiple states in a day but takes 3 days to go 40 miles. Unbelievable. Anything I've had delivered from other companies has never been more than a day late, which I would understand. There is no accountability here.

Upon confronting service for the log I was told the driver logged into 16 packages as the same time and ignored my delivery. They are paid on what they deliver so if you are rural good luck in getting that package. Seekonk is 30 minutes away and I could have walked there if they would have allowed me to pick up.

This month we have had a horrible time with FedEx. We have a dog that has special dietary needs. He's on a prescription food and the only place that reliably has it in stock is an online pet supply distributor... who uses FedEx for shipping. Last year in December, we ordered his supplies and they arrived 4 days late. I understand it's their busy season, but at least their tracking was on point and luckily we ordered early enough to account for a possible delay. This year on the other hand is a different story. We placed our order a week early, in anticipation of the delay. The warehouse the distributor shipped from is 3 hours away. It is currently sitting in a FedEx Distribution Center 30 minutes away. Here is the current timeline of this shipment:
Dec 11, Picked up by FedEx
Dec 12, Arrived at FedEx Distribution Center
Dec 13 (AM), out for delivery (Never came)
Dec 13 (PM), back at same FedEx DC
Between the 16-19 the package would go out for delivery in the AM and be returned in the PM, then tracking stops.
Dec 18 we run out of his food. I make him turkey and rice at feedings for the next 2 days.
Dec 20 I call FedEx. They state they are a little behind.. (Ya think?) I explain the importance of this package and she states that she will relay to the local DC. Someone from the local DC calls me, I verify the address, phone number, and again explain the importance of this package. She lets me know she will work to get it delivered by end of day. Lo and behold, I log in to FedEx and I see the package has a delivery date of Dec 20. I thought this was behind me and was going to then provide a decent review for making it right despite the situation....
Package never came... It is now Dec 21 so the package has been sitting with FedEx for 8 days... Now the website says "Estimated Delivery Date: Pending" So my efforts were futile, and here I am, writing a 1 star review. Meanwhile other packages that are delivered by a competing Parcel Service and a Federally Funded Parcel Service have arrived with minimal delays. If your seller has other options besides FedEx, use them.

The second time I was told they experienced some kind of logistics problem. Aren't they supposed to deal with moving many things all over the place every day? This company is not dependable nor honest. What would it have been like if I wasn't losing money on a downed machine and I would have chosen the slow delivery? Months? Maybe it will arrive Monday?

I have PTSD from dealing with FedEx. They are the most incompetent and illogical service I have ever dealt with. I live in a secured building. I have explicit instructions on my FedEx profile to leave packages at the office. This is beyond their ability. Every time I have a package from FedEx, I have to spend every day multiple days on the phone with customer service. This has happened more times than I can even count. When I talk to customer service, I tell them right off to look at all the times I have had to call them. I have been given conflicting information, lied to, and brushed off. Anything to get me off the phone. Yesterday, after 3 failed 'attempts,' I explained to them exactly where the office was, giving ridiculous details, because you can see it from the parking lot.
I was in the office picking up other packages, when the FedEx package actually arrived! The really offensive part was that he had two large loads of packages and knew the office employee! So why do I have to call repeatedly and draw little pictures for the drivers to deliver my package with all the others?! The last packages they were supposed to deliver, they couldn't manage and the packages got sent back. Only they only sent one back. They destroyed the other one and didn't bother to mention it for several days. I can't even say how many times I told them that it was food and needed to be delivered because it could only ride around town so many days before it went bad.
This nonsense has been going on for somewhere around a year now. I have instructed Amazon to, under no circumstances, ship FedEx as they actively refuse to deliver to my address. Unfortunately, most companies don't say how they are shipping it and there's no way short of calling them to know so I can make alternate arrangements or order from someone else.
I've tried being reasonable and patient. I've tried shouting. I've spoken to a supervisor. I've done everything I can think of. FedEx is the worst company, hands down, that I have ever dealt with. And that's even after the post office stopped delivering to my complex altogether without telling anyone because they changed the routes. I've dealt with a lot of incompetence in my life. And FedEx is the absolute worst.

Where do I begin? Every delivery of packages that are sent to me via FedEx are an exercise in frustration. I have had FedEx drivers claim that my address is invalid, or that I was not home to receive the package, or that the package was not deliverable, or any myriad of excuses. This last delivery (I do not have it yet) was supposed to be delivered yesterday. It was not. The reason stated was "We made a delivery attempt: 12/19/2019 08:12 PM. Delivery will be attempted again on the next business day". That's funny, I was home at 8:12 p.m. and nobody drove their truck onto my street and driveway. Note that their email stated the package would be delivered the next day. Guess what? No delivery again and now the latest from their tracking site states "No scheduled delivery date available at this time. Scheduled delivery: Pending."
We have repeatedly contacted the delivery hub where the drivers for area work from. We even went there in person to complain. There was an individual who helped once; however, he has moved on and his replacement has not responded to us when we have reached out to him. FedEx needs to either poop or get off the pot and let conscientious, honest delivery services handle the ground shipping business; they can't get their act together. UPS, USPS, and other deliveries are ALWAYS successful and on time. We NEVER have a problem with them. I intend to stop ordering from companies that utilize only FedEx (like Amazon has chosen to do--thank you Amazon!). I am sick and tired of the drama of poor delivery service.

I told him that Fedex had to know this before the last 15 minutes of the promised delivery day. I asked how Fedex was going to compensate me since I took an entire day off of work.

After reading other reviews and dealing with them in the past, I’m not even going to waste my time trying to call FedEx and complain. You get the same answer no matter how many people you talk to. Guess FedEx don’t care about the small people but it’s the small people that can spread bad reports about how your company is doing (or in this case not doing). They say that word of mouth can make or break a business. From now on I’m requesting all of my packages to be shipped by UPS or USPS.

I ordered an item that was set to be delivered to my house yesterday. I was given a large window from early AM until 8:00PM to expect the arrival of my package which needed signed for. Having someone at home all morning then taking half of a day off from work so that the other person waiting could leave I knew would be the best way not to miss my delivery. This was at noon. Just after 4PM, I happened to step outside my front door to find one package delivered from FedEx and a sticky note on my door (Door Tag) claiming that they attempted to deliver my expensive package but no one was home. No text, email, no knock at my door and my doorbell never rang. In fact, I spent the afternoon sitting just on the opposite side of that same door in my living room.
When I called customer service the woman was not very customer friendly stating that the driver noted attempted delivery between 3:30 and 3:50PM and because of the holidays the driver could not do a return visit. I explained that I had been home all afternoon after taking time out of my work day, losing half a day's pay, and no one knocked at my door. I offered since it was only 30 minutes since the supposed attempt that I would meet the driver as he or she would still be in the area. The customer service woman very rudely stated that I would have to wait until the following day (today) for another delivery attempt. I asked if there was a smaller time frame of estimated delivery time as to I was informed "No, delivery anytime before 8PM". I asked to speak to a supervisor and the woman directly said "Sure, so they can tell you the exact same thing I just told you."
Doing business with Fed Ex for a long period of time with my company, I would not have expected such low regard to customer care. There are other services out there (Tnt Express, Amazon, etc.) that may be more worthy of my loyal business and that of other recently un-satisfied customers. The paperwork left on my door was blank, no boxes checked, nothing. I understand the Christmas rush for deliveries but that doesn't mean these route managers should cut corners. For anyone planning to do business with Fed Ex, do not settle for poor quality service, remember you are a paying customer.

In short, she was offensive: I asked her to stop saying something as I found it offensive, belittling and treating me as a sub-human, at which point she just said it again! I then asked how to speak to her supervisor, apparently she doesn't have one as she deals with complaints as high as 'Vice-President'. If I wanted to complain then I should hang up and call back and speak to someone else in the call center located in Bristol Tennessee.
I'm not sure how much of the information she provided (location, reporting level etc) is accurate. But for someone working in a call center not having a supervisor, and capable of being intentionally offensive after being asked to stop saying something, and then asking for you to call back and report it to a co-worker on the same shift at the same call center... A new low for me when it comes to customer service. Not a company I would recommend to anyone after this experience. May seem convenient at the time, but to be treated so badly after the systems FedEx have implemented are not working and you were just calling to work out a solution, that's not how you treat customers. Only hope I get my package delivered now!

FedEx has to be the worst service ever. This past summer I ordered an awning offline and it was shipped FedEx. They list that it was delivered to my house and it was not. So when I called and 4 messages later when they finally called back they said it was left by my garage at my house on the corner, which I do not live on a corner. When I informed them of this they apologized and said I need to contact the shipper of the product and that was it. So the shipper of the product made good and made me a new one at their expense and sent it to me UPS which showed up at my house in the correct amount of time.
Now move ahead 4 months, we order a piece of furniture for our house and they ship FedEx. Delivery day comes and goes, they say held up because of bad weather. Finally four days later after calling and leaving messages we call the shipper that then reimburses us for the product because FedEx does not know where the package is. 1 week later I order a piece of equipment for work which was to be delivered on the 13th, yes you guessed it they shipped FedEx. Was listed as out on truck for 4 days, when I finally call they say it was a weather delay.
I finally get a call back and they tell me they are not sure where it is and that they will check with the dispatch center. I offer to go pick it up at center because I need for a job and they then inform me that it is still sitting in a trailer and that they are backlogged and that they were sorry. I do not understand how they stay in business. The customer service is awful and the delivery is even worse. I am in the customer service industry and if I ever pulled this crap I would be out of business. If you use shipping companies use a different one other then FedEx, they suck.

I ordered several valuable products and FedEx was supposed to be 2 day shipping them. It’s been over 10 days and I haven’t received the items. I just keep getting delivery exception alerts. I’ve called customer service over 10 times and keep getting a scripted response. They said there’s been an error and they don’t know exactly when I’ll receive my packages. For the last two weeks I get notifications saying that they’ll be delivered and then delivery exceptions. No one at the company can give me a definitive response, and this is totally unacceptable. Don’t use FedEx, there’s a reason Amazon wouldn’t approve of their service.

I now understand why so many rate FedEx poorly. I got a notice of delivery - right down to the specific time, 12:19, and location, front porch. No package was delivered. And, I have 2 camera pointed at our entrance. I can say with certainty that no FedEx driver every approached our home that day. I called FedEx and was told that during the busy season the drivers sometimes "pre-scan" the delivery - whatever that means. So, when I received an email stating that the package was delivered on a specific date at a specific time and location, someone had to know that they were sending me information that was, at best, a guess. I think this package was a gift. So now, because of their shoddy and deceptive delivery practices, I'm suffering the embarrassment or possible business ramifications of not knowing who to thank.

I bought a dresser from Target for my mother about two weeks ago. The first time FEDEX attempted to drop off the package they left a tag since my mother was not home. At the third attempt I spoke to a FEDEX customer service rep and he told me that they would try to deliver the dresser again and he gave me the time frame of 4-7pm. My mother had to change her schedule to accommodate FEDEX and got home by 3:30pm. When my mother got home, she saw that the item was not there. She proceeded to go up to her apartment and around 4:30pm she checked again and there was a tag saying they missed her -- mind you she was already home. They never even rang the bell.
Then frustrated I called FEDEX AGAIN. I explained to them that my mother was home and that she had no means of picking up the dresser at the warehouse (this is where they leave it after three attempts). I asked if they could drop it off on a day that she would be home and they said OK and that if she wasn't there they would leave it there. The day comes by No package. Then I had Target Customer care call them and they told Target that the package would be delivered MONDAY. Monday and Tuesday comes by and NO package.
I proceeded to look at the tracking information on my order and it said that I needed to call FEDEX--so AGAIN I did. NOW another FEDEX customer service rep got on the phone and I explained to her THE WHOLE situation and THEN she proceeds to tell me that whoever I spoke to before lied to me and that FEDEX would NOT be delivering the item because it was already tried 3 times. Furious, I hung up the phone and decided to reorder the dress again with target to see if the delivery could be made again. I finally got a new tracking number for the second order I made and called FEDEX last night, asking to make a request that whoever delivers the dresser could LEAVE the dress even if my mother wasn't home Then she proceeds to tell me that FEDEX doesn't leave packages at apartment complexes...
FEDEX. Please train your customer service people AND deliver people better. This is ridiculous and now I'm not sure if my mother will get her dresser. This is Christmas time and if you cannot be accommodating to your customers then what is your purpose? This is a horrible horrible way to treat people and your customers. I'd like to speak to a supervisor or someone that can fix this issue. I hope people can read this and know that FEDEX does not care about the customer whatsoever.

Giving Fed Ex one star is being very generous. They gave lost 4 of my orders over the past 3 weeks. Tracking information bounces between “out for delivery” and “delivery date pending” for the same order, within a two hour span. Expanded travel history shows my orders sitting in a warehouse 45 minutes away for over 10 days.

This is not my first issue with Fedex. Packages are usually late by a day or two and they never ring the bell to let me know they are here, even when it requires a signature, so even when I am home, I just get a "Sorry we missed you" note. No, you didn't miss me, your driver never rang my doorbell. I hate fedex and unfortunately, when I order something, I am at the mercy of whomever they have a contract with. I have even offered to pay special just to switch to UPS, but to no avail. All I can do is just complain to fedex who doesn't care and the companies I do business with if I want something specific.

So I bought a $2,500 iMac from a great shop in NY. Their warehouse is about 40 miles away from my home and they sent my package out the morning after I purchased it. Using FedEx (groan). FedEx tracking said package would be delivered Dec 4 by end of day. Signature Required. About 11:30 pm that night I check and tracking says package would be delivered Dec 5 by end of day. Signature Required. Rinse and repeat this again and again. I call FedEx customer service every day, and every day they express their apologies and assure me it will be there next day. The next day comes and goes and still no package. And did I mention it’s signature required?
It wouldn’t be so bad if the delivery is delayed as long as they give you accurate delivery information so you don’t rearrange your work and your life to be home between the hours of 8 am and 10 pm. They’re worse than the cable company. After many phone calls and changing the delivery to a local Walgreens with a FedEx, I finally picked up my computer, 6 business days late. Again, it only had to travel 40 miles total.
I am currently waiting on a time-sensitive letter that was sent to me FedEx (groan) Priority Overnight. Was supposed to be here by noon, it’s now 2 pm and still no package. They changed the tracking information from “Dec 18 by noon” to simply “Dec 18”. I’m sure by the end of day it’ll be replaced by “Dec 19th by end of day”. Btw, the estimated cost to deliver this letter priority overnight is around 75 bucks. They have no business charging that much to guarantee delivery when they NEVER deliver anything on-time. I’m not in a rural area, there is no excuse for how awful they are.

I shipped a package with FedEx on 9/25 to a foreign nation. Postage was paid in full and label printed and affixed to package. The package became deliverable due to taxes and dues from the country going to, but FedEx made no effort to calculate this for the label. They marked the package as deliverable because of this. Instead of returning the package to myself the sender they have now taken it as a "security" issue.
Today is 12/18 over three months later and the package has not been returned to myself. This is beyond reasonable for any company to pump itself up as a "security" service when it is merely a shipping service. The package has not been determined when it will be returned nor does customer service return any phone call, any email, or any means of communication. This is absolutely the worse shipping company ever to exist even based on past experience. Never ship with them. Ship with UPS, USPS, DHL, or any company besides FedEx.

Their employees know nothing. I was a victim of a fraud and realized it more than 24 hours in advance. I called multiple times mentioning fraud, and each time was assured the package would not be delivered and would be returned to me. It turns out they are not the least concerned about fraudulent delivery and do nothing more than request the local office to try to prevent delivery. Their own employees are not aware of this and obviously assume that when they enter it into the system the delivery will not be made.
If they see it in the system they assure the customer that there will be no delivery. I know more than Fedex workers because a lady from the Office of the President called me to apologize and explained that they do not actively control their deliveries and indeed have no mechanism for doing so. They can only hope the local office might take steps to prevent this. Consumers need to be informed to never send anything of value through Fedex to a new destination, and maybe never send anything through Fedex as their employees have no idea what they are doing.

FedEx left a heavy package (unassembled furniture) on my side patio, after dark, in the rain, no doorbell ring, broken open package ends. Seller had Fed Ex pick up that package - three days later. Seller replaced shipment, which FedEx left on my porch, dropped (I knew it was there because the house shook) partly onto the settee, angled from the floor, blocking the porch. You can get by it be sidling and stepping over it - it's much too heavy for me to move (yes, I tried). Nor is my home ready for the parts to be brought inside one by one - there's no room to put them inside yet. I can't see under the package to see if the settee is broken, either.
Calling FedEx has had some very nice customer service people tell me someone will come move it, but in two days they're neither called nor been here. Fun, since another mover is coming to move something out of the house this afternoon, and won't be able to do so. My loathing for FedEx is huge, plus their customer service website is useless, only recognizes common problems they're willing to post about happening, I guess. Lousy delivery isn't one of them!!!

Fedex informs that I need to be home on Friday to sign for delivery, which is fair and I took off from my two jobs to do so. After 7:30pm, I check tracking to find out they can’t deliver. Call customer service and they don’t know why but tells me I should stay home again on Saturday (thereby taking another day off from two jobs). I escalated it and a rep assured me they will call station manager first thing Sat morning and call me back - as I said I’d need it to be delivered before I went to work on Sat. No one called me, and when I called them Sat, no one knew what I was talking about and they couldn’t deliver before I went to work.
I understand delays happen during holiday season but had they told me on Friday even at 5pm that they can’t deliver, I would’ve at least gone to my second job - I only get paid if I show up, so loss of pay on Friday. I wasn’t willing to take off Sat and Sun from work as I didn’f trust they would actually show up. Called Monday morning, rep says be home as it will be last attempt. Take off from work again, notice at 12:30pm that their website says deliver is Tues, call them again and told it was never scheduled for Mon. So now I’ve lost two days worth of pay, not to mention my boss is not happy with me (rightfully so).
Argued with Fedex for two hours - if Fedex can’t deliver and doesn’t let customers know proactively of the delay, their ‘help’ is telling the customer too bad, stay home until we deliver. Then they have the audacity to say they are helping! Of course no one knows how to file a complaint, I need to be reimbursed for two days of lost pay, and when I finally do they also don’t know when they will follow up. Extremely disappointed - these folks work for pay just like us customers, how is it ok penalize us financially for their ineptness?

Once again, FedEx has proven that it is possible to lower standards even more. I ordered a phone from Straight Talk (another questionable company) on the 11th of December this year. That order was "shipped" using FedEx Ground the same day as the order was placed. The package arrived in Zionsville where it remained, for no apparent reason, for two days without moving. At the time the Delivery Date was for the 13th of December this year. As FedEx is incapable of providing a delivery time my wife and I waited for the package to be delivered and in accordance with their tracking advisories.
By 5:00pm on the 13th I checked the tracking again just to discover that the delivery date had been changed to the 14th. An entire day wasted waiting for FedEx to arrive. My wife and I waited all day again, on the 14th, and despite the tracking claiming the package was on the truck for delivery it once again failed to turn up. Two days of sitting around waiting for incompetence.
As such, FedEx "Customer Support" was contacted and I was abruptly told that there was nothing that could be done and I needed to talk to the shipper, Straight Talk. In other words, FedEx failed in its responsibility and then palmed that responsibility back onto the Shipper, and that is what they incredulously refer to as Customer Service. FedEx Customer Service is nothing more than a bunch of individuals who look at the same tracking information as is sent to the customer and NOTHING more. The only thing that they do, and do well, is to pass their responsibility onto someone else, typical Corporate American attitude of "it's always someone else's fault and never ours"!
When I asked to speak to someone in Horseheads NY, where the package was being delivered from, I was told that was not allowed. You can't even speak with those responsible and who "might be able" to offer a reason for what has taken place and who may be able to actually help in some way. No explanation given, or even offered, as to why a package that is supposedly on a truck for delivery is not delivered. I guess the driver must have gotten tired and just couldn't be bothered as has happened all too often in the past to us and in our area generally.
FedEx doesn't give a damn about the customer and does nothing to help when things go wrong. The ONLY thing they are any good at is coming up with pitiful excuses in an attempt to justify their blatant incompetence. Bottom line, if you have a choice of using another shipper, any other shipper, use them. If the only shipper offered by a company is FedEx - use another Company to purchase your items from. Unfortunately one is unable to leave the Stars thing empty or submit a negative star. If it were possible FedEx would be rated no better than a MINUS TEN for an over priced, incompetent, unhelpful, arrogant, apathetic company.

The retail companies need to hold FedEx liable if a product really does not reach the buyer and a claim has to be filed by purchaser. Happy holidays with my Fur FedEx.

I understand that, but again I've had back surgery, I have to have help bringing it in because I can't pick up more than 8 lb.
Trying to explain that to a FedEx customer agent is an epic fail so what am I supposed to do? Wait till they decide to deliver it, ignore all the automated information that they tell me through the app that it will be delivered sometime during the day. It's absolutely epic fail. If I could pick it up, I would. But that's not going to happen. So I'm at the whim of FedEx to deliver this sometime in the near future. It's a gift, and it's late, again, epic fail. Thanks a lot FedEx. You can no longer be expected to deliver when you say. And oh by the way, you have a delivered on time one time in the last two years. By the way, it was supposed to be delivered as a gift on the 14th and I'll bet it is a no-show.

I receive many packages and have never had issues like I do with FedEx. Packages consistently with tracking showing they are out for delivery...only to be delayed until the next day (when I'm lucky). Sometimes showing a note that 'no one was home' when I was and no one ever showed up...if they would have there would have been a door tag. Drivers showing up in personal, un-marked vehicles. I don't have this problem with any other shipper. USPS, DHL, UPS. No problems like this at all. This has happened repeatedly with fedex.

I sold an item on eBay. I decided to use FedEx because I heard they were the most reliable shipping company there is. I made sure to remove "signature requirement" for delivery because I didn't want Fedex to hold the package. On December 8, my package was out for delivery. The truck driver didn't feel safe leaving the package there. He attempted delivery every business day since the 12th. I called Fedex on the 12th to see what was happening with my delivery. They told me that the driver did not feel safe leaving it at the buyer's residence.
So I called, and the customer rep told me the only thing I could do was change the routing address. I wanted them to hold the package at a Fedex but he said they were not allowed to do that. So I told the rep I'd call him back after I got an alternative address to ship to. When I called back (with a new address), I got a new rep on the phone to talk to. She told me I wasn't allowed to change the routing address. She said the only thing they could was hold the package at a Fedex. Funny how two Fedex employees gave me conflicting advice, and she even berated me for being confused. I told her the previous employee gave me contradictory advice to hers. So she gave me the address of the Fedex terminal where they would hold it for a pickup.
I told the buyer where the address was. The buyer called the terminal up, and he was told specifically that they don't allow people to make pickups there due to the high volume of people. So they are going to put the package on a delivery truck again tomorrow, and repeat this process. I paid Fedex to deliver my package, and they are not doing that. And they are not allowing me any other alternative except for their driver to keep refusing to deliver my package. Fedex is handling this situation terribly. This is a failure on Fedex's part to deliver my package.

Never use them. They shipped my package from Ohio to Pennsylvania (two states over) and it took over a week. After being told every day the package would arrive tomorrow. Everyday I stayed home waiting for it, only to be disappointed every night, without any notification of delay or otherwise. I called and noted my account to DO NOT DROP AND ROLL, PLEASE RING THE BELL, SOMEONE IS WAITING.
After a full week of disappointment I made a customer complaint which did nothing to help with my issue. No notification even though I signed up for text notification. At last a manager calls and says he doesn't know why my package was being held, but it would be delivered today... at last it arrived and you know what happened. They DROPPED IT AND ROLLED... If I didn't have ring I would have never known my precious and very important package was sitting on my door step waiting for anyone walking by to pick up. Besides that there was a huge note on the door saying please deliver all packaged to the back porch. But nope, they DROPPED IT and left. I called back to let the manager know.

(NO ONE CALLED). Fortunately the seller refunded the money after seeing the shipping log details, stuck at last drop off for 3 days a short distance away. It's either lost or stolen at that location? Also, from previous experience with fedex: the local Fedex store has Lackadaisical workers, chatting together, strolling around, in no hurry, hardly aware there are two long lines of customers.

I purchased a car part from Rock Auto, a 2.5-hour drive from my home. I selected ground delivery and Rock Auto had the FEDEX label created within one hour, and it shipped that day with an ETA of two days to get to my house. Awesome Rock Auto!! On delivery day FEDEX had it on the truck and out for delivery. 7:30pm that night my delivery went in to pending status. The next day, day 3 the same thing happened at 7:30 at night. Day 4 same thing.
So, I called FEDEX and all I was told is that there was nothing they could do. They are busy with deliveries and I would just need to check status daily because that’s all he could do. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was denied. He said he couldn’t do that. I asked if he could call the local FEDEX hub and he said no he couldn’t do that. It went on and on and on.

It blows my mind that FedEx is even in business. I wish I was exaggerating, but EVERY single package that has every attempted to be delivered to me by FedEx has never actually made it to my doorstep. It’s to the point that Nordstrom now knows to only ship items to me via UPS, because of the obscene number of claims filed for lost packages. I’ve gone out of my way, paid more, flat out not ordered if I saw FedEx was the shipping provider, but unfortunately I placed an order without knowing the shipping provider and prayed it wasn’t FedEx. Sadly it was.
That said order was supposed to be delivered today, and no surprise, it didn’t arrive. When I called I was assured it would get to me by 8pm, however, it’s now past 8pm and the online tracking has changed to say they can no longer provide me with delivery data. And their customer service is even more of a joke than their delivery... Manager after manager can’t provide me with a solution.

The tracking number and delivery date are absolutely meaningless with FedEx. Late in the day of the scheduled delivery date, the status suddenly changed to "pending". After spending 35 minutes trying to get information from their customer service rep (and the majority of this time was waiting on hold), I was told there wasn't an answer, and they would request an investigation and someone would get back to me with a response by 5:30 PM the next day. Of course, that time came and went with no call back. I again called FedEx to see what was going on. The woman assured me my package would be delivered the next day. I asked her how that was going to happen when there was nothing to indicate it was even in my state, let alone my local city. She couldn't answer that, of course, and became defensive about how busy FedEx is during the holiday season.
Again, the next day there's no change in the tracking status, no scheduled delivery, so I call one last time and request to speak to a supervisor. The rep tried several times and said he couldn't get through to one. Okay, I believe he tried. However, he now told me that because in their system it shows delivery scheduled by end of business this day, no investigation can actually be opened until that point had passed. I lost it. Three calls, over 1.5 hrs. of my time trying to get a reasonable answer, and they expected me to call again? NEVER! This situation could continue ad infinitum.
Instead, I called the company I ordered from and they are now investigating the situation. My warning to others: Calling FedEx is about as efficient as talking to a wall. They are utterly useless, and their online "virtual assistant" is also useless. Personally, I will never use FedEx to ship anything to anyone after this experience. I don't understand why anyone would use them with this kind of service.

According to the tracker my package made it about ten minutes from my house at one of the distribution centers. When I called back, I demanded to speak with a supervisor after being hung up on. She told me I needed to contact the company and there’s nothing they can do about the package, they have “no idea” where it’s located. I contacted the company I made the purchase from who reported that FedEx never reported the package lost. That it is still in transit. After questioning me a bit, they said if it didn’t make its way to me by tomorrow, they would reissue the items. This all took about an hour of my time. I’m really disappointed.

One hour later I get yet another text message saying it will arrive TUESDAY end of day. Ok, nothing Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and now Monday!! It took less than 12 hours to be delivered from another state, but in 6 days, they can't deliver it 30 miles????
Now (Monday late afternoon) the website shows - "On way to depot" - AGAIN!! WHY??!! I've taken off work 6 days now!! I'VE BEEN HERE!! Now MAYBE it will be delivered Tuesday?? Writing this their website now shows 'On truck delivery expected EOD' but what day?? Today, Monday or Tuesday?? I just called FedEx and after 12 minutes waiting, I asked to speak to a Supervisor. After complaining she said "Here's a complaint number. I'm going to check into this and someone will call you back soon." Now I see 'On way back to depot'. REALLY??!! I give you. You win!! FedEx... Never again!!!!

Two packages on same day went MIA. On one, no attempt to deliver was made, though the package was supposedly on the truck at 4 am. The second, was sent from Ct to NH then back to Ct rather than being delivered in NH. Even when they do deliver, they leave packages in the snow in the driveway, rather than on the porch or in the garage like UPS and USPS. Customer service is a joke. You have to play any number of games to actually get to someone to answer your problem. All you get is a recording that tells you precisely what you are seeing on your Computer Monitor. If there's a problem, then it is your problem.

I had ordered a part for my car on Thursday 12/5. The part was in Jacksonville by 7:00 pm. on 12/6. I knew the part couldn't make to that day, even though I paid for overnight. I was ok with that. I was sure they would get it to me on Saturday, around 3:30 a FedEx truck went by my house, no package for me me. I contacted the service center and they were very helpful. I let the gentleman know I needed this part so I could fix my car so I could get to work on Monday. About 30 minutes later a kind gentleman called me from the Jacksonville sorting center, I was told all the drivers had finished that route, however he had a driver that had just finished his shift and would see if he could bring my package.
The driver in his own personal vehicle brought the package to me. Outstanding service to go above and beyond to help me out. I hope this get back to the employees involved. I want to thank them for being outstanding people. To the driver thank you so very much for going out of your way help me out. This speaks highly of your professionalism. Thank you again. From Ted

Very, very poor customer service and delivery processes. Unfortunately a package requiring a signature for delivery was sent via Fed Ex. The first email I received told me the package would arrive the next day with no time frame given. I made arrangements to be home all day. At about 2pm still no delivery so I called to see if they could be more specific about the time. I was told they knew several days before they sent me the email that my package would be a day late! So why the email? Because it is automatically generated! Well why not another email letting me know if is going to be delayed? Answer: We don't do that!
I was assured my package would arrive the next day between 8:10am and 1:55 pm. I verified the time frame the next morning. At 2:30 pm the next afternoon - still no package. I spent the next 1 1/2 hour on hold and with various unhelpful rude customer service reps and lastly a "special customer service rep" who would call the station my package left with driver this am. She tried for 40 min and the station did not answer. She said she could not try again. I asked for her name and she promptly hung up on me! Still no package. Still don't know when it will come. But I do know one thing... I WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM A COMPANY WHO USES fed ex FOR DELIVERY...ABSOLUTELY NEVER.

No one is in my store from 6-8 so I ask for a specific delivery time and he cannot provide one. I then request a supervisor.
I am transferred to another person who immediately tells me it wont arrive till Monday. I explain what the previous two agents told me and she states that she is not responsible for those people, she really did not seem to care that I was lied to. I asked numerous times where my packages were, and she could not say. I asked her to provide Saturday deliver and she refused. She then transferred me to another department, who told me a total of 8 times she could not hear me and then said I was yelling and hung up on me. I still do not have the packages, the company cannot tell me where they are.
The failure to deliver on time is very common with Fed ex and happens on 90% of the shipments I receive from them. The customer service department clearly has no interest in serving the customers and the customer advocacy team appears to be a useless department because they cannot fix any problem. I would recommend using another shipping service.

I order almost everything I purchase online and have generally had excellent delivery service. I have never had an experience like my most recent with Fed Ex. I was told I’d have the item in 2-3 days. On the fifth day fed ex notified me it was on its way and I could expect it by 8 pm. Nothing showed up and no notification was provided. I called Fed Ex who informed me that the driver was unable to deliver due to weather. It happened to be raining that day but there was absolutely no reason why the drop off could not be made. I asked the agent if it could be dropped at my house the following day and was assured it could and that I did not need to sign for it. No problem.
So the next day, I get another notification it will arrive before 8 pm. At 7:45 I get a notification that the package (you guessed it) once again could not be delivered. No explanation this time. Now I’m really pissed. So today - Friday- I get yet another notification that it’s on its way. At 11:56 am I get a notification that the driver attempted to drop it off but because I was not home I’d now have to wait until Monday. WHAT?!? I call Fed ex immediately to seek clarification as to why this happened.. and I proceeded to get the scripted response. I spent my entire afternoon chasing down my package.
Fed ex refused to deliver it and now I can wait for a re-attempt on Monday or go get it myself. I spoke with 6 different customer service agents... not one of whom gave me any indication that they even gave a **. I am not sure how Fed ex is even in business anymore? Worst delivery service with the worst, most robotic customer service agents I have ever had to deal with. Absolutely not even concerned or remotely interested in trying to help. I will purposely refuse to purchase something online in the future if Fed ex is the delivery service. Just a total, unprofessional and incompetent band of fools.

Today I was home when I received an email saying it was delivered. I went outside to see if I missed the delivery guy only to find it wasn’t there. I called Fed Ex immediately to tell them that they must have delivered it to the wrong house and that they need to go back and get it only to be told that they were too busy and that the delivery person had already left the area. They explained that they had 48 hours to look into it and that they would not be retrieving it tonight. They also recommended that I call the company that I ordered it from and see about having another one sent to me.
Plus they let me know that the delivery people don’t actually work for them. They work for a third party company. Even though they wear fed ex uniforms and drive fed ex delivery trucks they don’t actually work for them so they can’t make them go pick it back up. So now I have a gaping hole in my wall where the fireplace goes and no fireplace. Oh and let’s not forget that fed ex has 48 hours to look into where the fireplace is because we all know a 600.00 item will just sit and wait for them to find it. I recommend that you use any other company besides fed ex, if they can’t stand by the fact that they made a mistake nor stand by the delivery process because they don’t actually employ the delivery people what can they stand by?

Fed Ex hung up on me multiple times. I was calling about getting a refund because they lost my package. They dropped it off at the wrong location and let a random person sign it knowing that person wasn't me. This is because they are too lazy to care and want to get rid of the package quickly. Recently I was going home and there was a fed ex worker at my apartment building door, he said "is this package yours". I was honest and I told him "No".
It was my neighbors package whom is a complete stranger to me. He was like "Can you give it to your neighbor", I didn't feel comfortable doing so but I feared What would happen to the package given my history with fed ex so I took it and he had me sign for it. I quickly ran up to my neighbor's door and gave them the package. Had I been another person, however, a liar, a greedy person, I could've taken that package as it was handed off to me and my neighbor would never know. Just like me, my neighbor would've called fed ex and they would've told her 'we're investigating, we'll call you back" but they DON'T CALL BACK... EVER.
As far as my refund goes, not only did I get hung up on me twice but they first told me I would get one in about 24 hours. I waited two weeks, nothing. I called again and they prolonged it to 5 weeks. I feel like they're just lying to me and I'm never getting the money for my order which they have lost for being lazy.

The package had to be signed for, so I waited and every few hours I would check in. Still on the truck to be delivered. At 7:45 pm I called and was informed that the driver still had until 8:30. So I waited. Did they ever show? Nope! I spent my entire day waiting for this package. At one point the automated Fedsux package told me “commitment times of this service are not time specific but DAY SPECIFIC” - mind you delivery at the end of the day 11/30/2019. I called again, only to hear excuses, and that it would be delivered by the end of the day Monday, which of course, is not possible with my schedule. Now to fix their problem, I have to go pick the package up to fix what mess they have made.
Why say one thing and then do another? If I would have known had Fedsux works, I would have chose to pick it up in store. I will never get back that time wasted... Thankfully there is DHL, USPS, UPS!

In reading other discouraging posts online about FedEx and their shoddiness I wouldn't recommend them for anything, they are completely undependable. It's their policy that the drivers aren't required to ring a doorbell or knock to notify a resident of a delivery unless it's Signature Required and ours is, no knock whatsoever, obviously since he never got out of the truck. I find it appalling they allow their drivers to blatantly lie to get out of having to do the work they're being paid to do.

I was at my house at that time and there was no indication of a delivery attempt nor was a door label left. I have 4 dogs in this house and not a sound out of them to alert me someone was at the door which normally they are my alert system. I phoned the customer care center immediately after receiving the text that the attempt had been made. They sent a message to the dispatcher requesting the delivery be attempted again.
Since I had a 3:30 appt. she requested it be done before 2:00 pm. I waited in my living room until 2 so as not to miss the delivery. When I had no delivery by 2:15 pm I again called the customer care center. The gentleman told me that the request was in the record but that the driver had not responded. So now I have no package and will have to go pick up my package in order to get it today. Are the drivers not required to respond when notified? What a poor way to run a company.
On top of that I have a second package, tracking number **, that was scheduled to be delivered today that was postponed until tomorrow. When I asked about that package I was told that it was still scheduled for today even though I had the text messages and checked the web site and both indicated that it had been rescheduled. I was told that Fedex had until 8 pm tonight to deliver and that I could call after 8 if not received to lodge a complaint. I have just now received a text message once again telling me that the package delivery has been reschedule to tomorrow.

Stick with UPS and USPS, DHL (yellow). They actually have customer service. There may be more out there. Some big box retailers are using Fedex and it’s not a good relationship. I'm caught in the middle. Walmart did nothing. When they say they will it’s complicated for the customer and you get charged double if there is a delay in exchanging item instead of waiting for return or something. FED EX is opening (literally opening) and damaging my product I’m buying. Can’t get to the store as I use to so shipping is essential for some things. They refused to do anything about any incident. I have to file a claim. (extensive complicated, intrusive claim) I shouldn’t have to do that. Walmart or fedex should.
Fed ex doesn’t need to know everything you are buying either. It’s all legal stuff the retailer is allowed to ship! Wonder if fedex is opening to see for valuable items to steal. They are stealing already when they damage my stuff and don’t replace. This is not once but most of my items are opened or damaged. Don’t even know who is at the door no identification of anything.

Monday comes and the seller ships it out and I get the tracking information later in the day and it tells me Wed November 20 - Towards the end of the day (kinda vague, but I look it up on my phone what the company means)..So, I took a whole day off (they needed a signature) because there was a past incident where I missed them by 15 minutes (I was at work) but I managed to be able to pick it up right before the station closed; I wasn't going to miss this time. I wait and wait, at around 3 pm I check the tracker on my phone again and now it says Delivery will be November 21 Towards the end of the day!?!
I look to see that the package is now at some other location (it arrived there at around 1:15 pm.

I tell Maria I don't know if I will be able to pick it up tomorrow and it came down to either having to wait till Friday OR for the driver to attempt a second stop, and there's no way I'm going to do either of those (no guarantee in the "window" of time - anywhere from 9:30 am -5:30 pm) so pick up at 8 am it is.
The main complaint in all this is I lost $ and wasted my time today by taking a day off of work based on FEDEX's Delivery Day.. The fact that the package arrived at the HUB TODAY meant that the package was NOT READY and was NEVER going to be delivered TODAY IN THE FIRST PLACE!!

I have never had a good experience with FedEx but this one is special. First, I receive notice signature is required for my package. Knowing I work all day, 8a-830p, I go online and set up to pick my package up from the FedEx center inside a local Walgreens. Minutes later, I get a call from FedEx explaining I can't pick up my package due to "shipper restrictions," and the only way is to have them call and lift it. Mind you, the shipper is SAMSUNG (huge electronics Corp). And by some miracle, I got Samsung to call FedEx. The poor Samsung rep told me he was having "an extremely difficult time" with the FedEx rep to work around the restrictions (even though FedEx's rep told me all I needed was Samsung to call). Samsung advised based on the FedEx rep that I could now go online and set a specific delivery time to ensure I would be available. Surprise, I go online and that is not an option.
Call back and spoke to Daniel, who stated he submitted a request for me to get a Time window so I could get my package from my porch during my lunch break. Case manager calls to tell me what the internet says, it will be delivered before 8 pm. I explained (again) that I needed a specific time and it would be easiest and most secure for all involved to allow me to pick up my package at a FedEx center (they require ID). He attempts to get his supervisor and after 15 minutes of holding for Willie, they disconnect the call and didn't even bother to call me back. Mind you, it was an inbound call to begin with. Absolutely ridiculous customer service and I hope people consider this experience before utilizing FedEx as a shipper and causing frustration to their customers. FedEx is a HORRIBLE company.

After 2 years of getting a home delivery service for a food kit meal, it seems that FedEx has dropped the ball monumentally. Every order I have placed in the last 2 months has been a day or more late, food has been spoiled, boxes have been dismantled and put back together improperly, boxes that look like they were drop kicked from the door of the vehicle or worse missing in action.
When they have arrived when I'm home, they come in a Budge Rental Truck with no person that has a FedEx shirt or any sort of ID. I get texts when the box is picked up and each time that the carrier "beeps" it in, but more than once I've had no delivery even though it says "out for delivery". This is not my food vendor's fault, but since FedEx can't seem to get it right, I've had to cancel my service because I don't feel it's fair to have them keep replacing my boxes when it's not their fault. My vendor has gone so far as to give me a free box, so you get one more chance FedEx, let's see if you can get it right this week. I'm not holding out hope.

I get packages delivered almost weekly. Ebay and Amazon are my credit card's best friends. Never have any issues with UPS and USPS. On the other hand, my experiences with FedEx have never been good. I live in an apartment complex. There are 8 separate buildings. Each one has a very large letter on it saying what building it is. My packages have been delivered to each building. I ordered brakes for my car. Not sure where they were delivered. Then this weekend, unfortunately my father-in-law unexpectedly passed away. I was having a package delivered and we weren't home. I had a door tag on the door. I checked the tracking and it was being delivered the next day. We had an appointment with the funeral home, but were home the rest of the day. At about 1:45 I got an email saying my package couldn't be delivered because I wasn't home. I checked the door and there was nothing. We were sitting 5 feet from the door.
I called FedEx and was told the driver attempted delivery. No. They didn't. I was pissed. The tracking number said it would be delivered on the day of the burial. Completely unacceptable. I told the guy on the phone that they attempted delivery 10 minutes ago. Have them come back. Of course they couldn't. So I told them I wanted to talk to someone from the office where my package is coming from. I was told I would get a phone call back. Surprise! No phone call! 3 days later and still no package either!

In my case, scheduled deliveries never show up but FED EX vigorously argues that delivery was attempted by no one was home. Lies. I have spoken with many of my neighbors who recite the same story. FED EX claims they tried to deliver the package but, strangely, no FED EX truck or delivery person is recorded on our property surveillance cameras. Then, we all discover that ALL our deliveries were attempted at exactly the same time. Hmmm...maybe FED EX has perfected time travel...too bad they a traveling backwards rather than forward. When one calls customer service all you can expect is an apology and a vague statement that the package is "on a truck for delivery".

FedEx shipped a package I purchased through Amazon. Other mailing services had not required signatures of packages of similar value. FedEx did. However, I was not present to sign for the package. They re-attempted to deliver a package to my apartment at 2:00pm Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Shocker, they didn't even make an attempt on Saturday. Big hints if I'm not home Tuesday at 2:00pm, I may not be there Wednesday.
Each time they left a door tag. At the very bottom of the door tag, beneath a barcode and in size 8 font, there is a message saying see back of tag. If you turn to the back of the tag, there is writing in light font color detailing out that you may leave a signature on the back of the door tag to forfeit liability if you aren't there to sign in person and they will leave the package. This was very poor design from a billion dollar company. You would think they'd make the most critical aspect of the door tag more visually distinguishable and wouldn't hide the note to turn over in size 8 font underneath a barcode.

Update on 11/17/2019: An update on my FedEx First AM delivery. FYI, the delivery was received on Saturday at 2:30 pm.Just to make clear, the FedEx delivery was in the Baltimore area. Since it was marked for Weekday delivery, we expected the pack to be delivered on Monday now and not Saturday afternoon. Because of this, I had to fly back home, and then fly back on Monday too complete the job. This mistake by FedEx has cost both companies at least $10,000 and most of all, cost medical patients proper medical diagnosis in the delay in treatment.
Original: Arrange for medical parts to be shipped overnight for First AM delivery. FedEx reported no one was available on site to receive the package. Got a notice stating the package was going to be re-delivered by 10:30am. By 11:30, no FedEx driver. Called three more times. It’s on its way. It’s on the truck. Then I got an email, It’s not on its way, it’s not on the truck. Called once more and informed FedEx, the package contained medical parts, and the delay will delay medical test results needed by the doctors for their medical patients diagnosis. I got the impression, that they didn’t care. There’s nothing I can do, was what I was told by FedEx. "You’ll receive the package sometime this afternoon." Now I have to change my return flight and get a hotel room so I can complete my job. Way to go FedEx, profit over customer care.

Dont know why they wanted $170 to send there but only $80 to return). Anyway they were shown a picture of the address they needed to send it to which was clearly printed and they couldn't even copy it right which made it not arrive when I needed it and messed up a very important appt with lawyers.
I called to find out where it is and they said address was wrong couldnt deliver so then they fixed it and even tried to charge me a fee for the change which I refused to pay since it was their screw up. They agreed thats fine. I made another appt with the lawyer so I could have the proper work I needed. They said they will have it shipped the next business day which was a monday.

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!

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.

I called FedEx after that, gave them my cell phone number, then called again yesterday also. The tracking keeps saying Incorrect street address. It is a new address but UPS, USPS, Amazon all deliver here no problem.
Now a 2nd package was sent and the tracking says no delivery attempt yesterday but will be delivered today. I called and spoke with a supervisor at FedEx, who says, oh yeah, they will be delivered tomorrow, but they are trying to call the driver and he doesn't answer. What kind of business is this? I couldn't stay in business with service like this. I just want these packages delivered today and then I will never order anything using FedEx again.

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. Completely unacceptable. I felt lied to as well as ripped off since I wouldn't even used their service in the first place if it wasn't for their bogus delivery estimation.

Second time in 6 months that I had package shipped via FedEx. Both times they claimed to attempt delivery. Both times I was here with door open and no one showed/no door tag. I'm beginning to hate FedEx.

The FedEx delivery truck drove onto our driveway in making the delivery. After the truck completed the delivery there was an oily substance that had leaked from the delivery truck. We submitted photos of the leak that damaged our property along with the requested estimate of repairs.
The claims representative eventually responded to us after repeated attempts of WHEN would we receive our payment for loss with an offer of ONLY HALF of what our submitted estimate was that would resolve this issue to make our property whole! We contacted the customer service representative to inform her that we were not SATISFIED with the offer of only half of our submitted estimate. To date, after repeated attempts of expressing our dissatisfaction of FedEx's offer we have not gotten a reply. At this point we are in need of your help in obtaining our payment of damages from FedEx. Thank you in advance for your attention in this matter.

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. Still waiting for a response on my claim.

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 a car part online and it was to be delivered by FedEx. My package has been on a truck riding around with a driver all day that can't be identified by the COMPANY he/she works for then no one seems to know when it will be delivered. I've called every HR on the HR and can't get not one straight answer. Meanwhile I'm missing a day of work waiting for this driver to show up. SAD. I would have rather my package be delivered by an homing pigeon than a FedEx driver.

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.

I wish I could give less stars. I showed up at the store opening time, there were already 4 cars waiting. 30 minutes later no one showed up to open the store. I called customer service and they said they could send someone to my house to pick up my package....4 DAYS LATER! She said that since it was FEDEX ground, it was essentially a complimentary service and I should be lucky they were willing to come out anytime. I reminded her that I was AT HER STORE but could not send the package when the store should have been opened!

I ordered a package & I didn’t get the choice of shipping companies. I paid extra for a 2 day delivery to find out I would maybe get a call on the 3rd day. The agent on the phone read from a script. Lied to me about weather in an area my package didn’t ship nor connect with. When I checked them on the weather he said, "Ummmm let me just set up a call back for you tomorrow". He refused to respond when I called him out on his lie. Now I’m left with a possible call tomorrow to inform me of why my package is 3 days late. I will never use a company that ships with FedEx again.

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. To be honest, I suspect if they will "attempt" a delivery on Tuesday. (Today is Sunday).

I made a purchase through Dell and they used FedEx as a service. Starting this Monday, I received a notification that there was an attempt and I admittedly said I must have missed it because I fell asleep twelve minutes before the notification. 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. Thursday, I received a message at 10:41 saying: FedEx: Picked up, scheduled for delivery 10/11. Signature or signature release required. Reply HELP for help. STOP to cancel. Then another 11 minutes later saying: FedEx: Delivery attempt: 10/10/2019 Time 10:40 AM. A final delivery attempt will be made on the next business day. Not going to be home? Tap link to see other options. Signature or signature release required. Reply HELP for help. STOP to cancel.
I was enraged that I have been staying up for an additional 4.5 hours [over 16 a day including coming from work] to receive such false messages. Friday I waited again as they said it was the final attempt. Took pictures hourly. And watched each carrier arrive. Even FedEx! The man gotbout with two packages and deliver them across the street, hitting the doorbell and running away after leaving them on the step.
A gentlemen came out and tried to get his attention but by this point he was Back in the truck and I thought today was the day. I'll get my package. Next minute I receive the message an attempt was made as he pulled off. And I caught this moment in pictures. I called again, enraged, amd they dared to offer another attempt on Saturday to which I replied "I've waited long enough" in short. Now I drive an hour and a half to FedEx ground to pick up my package and their apology did not satisfy me.
