    Wow! I have used Fedex for over a decade and did not have any issues until the last couple of years. I usually take it upon myself to write positive reviews because so many are quick to complain. I cannot be silent anymore regarding fedex. Recently, I called to inquire why my delivery was taking 7 days when it was scheduled to take 2-3 days. About 1 hour after a call that went nowhere - no explanation as to why it was taking so long - no weather issues, etc., I receive a text that my delivery is now going to take an additional 2 more days to arrive!!! Do not use Fedex and sell your stock! They used to be a great company but now they are terrible!!!

    I’d like to know why the 5 stars reviews are duplicated on this site. It makes their score higher than it is?? FedEx is horrible, they outsource to people who say your address doesn’t exist so they get paid without actually working. My house was built in the 60s and I’ve lived in it for 21 yrs., my address is registered with 911 and US post office. I’ve never had trouble getting deliveries from any carrier much less have I ever had a package returned stating invalid address.

    I called 3 days ago to verify my address and gave them directions along with my cell number and I have yet to receive my packages. They have not called me back like they were supposed to yet I’ve called them 4 times. All they say is sorry for the inconvenience and would you like to pick it up???? Really FedEx??? I paid you to deliver it. If I operated my business this way I wouldn’t have a business. Maybe this will happen to them as I won’t be ordering anything if it’s shipped through them ever again. Maybe they should read all of these negative reviews and DO SOMETHING about it besides trying to get you to do their job for them. P.S. UPS is amazing, y’all need to take notes.

    I chose FedEx Express Saver since it guaranteed that I RECEIVED the package on time but I did not even receive my package at all. The package was supposed to be delivered from Katy Texas to Minneapolis, MN in 5-7 business days but now it is more than two weeks and I have not received anything. I contacted back to their customer service and they said that they might lose my package in Georgia. It is quite messed up since the package contains important documents and my IDs and now I have to register all those papers again which cost a lot. The attitude of their representatives is bad too. Very unlikely that I will ever use any FedEx service again.

    These guys have really gone off the deep end this time. Their service was never that great to begin with and now it is downright horrendous! They are telling customers packages will be delivered in 3-5 business days, 7 business days later they still CAN NOT EVEN TELL YOU WHEN YOU WILL GET IT, WOW! So you take people's money, set up false expectations and when everything fails, you continue to keep people in the dark and just have all of your ESL employees practice saying, 'I/We apologize' and other basic language terminology aspiring to be future American capitalists. If you are out to get people, go join the armed forces and maybe you can see some real action, why work in a delivery company and harass professional upstanding people.

    I was supposed to receive a package on 6/25/2021. It requires a signature. So I stayed home all day. That evening I called and it went through to a non_English speaking country. They refused to tell where and refused to transfer me to someone in the US. After they hung up on me twice. I looked up FEDEX in US. I already knew their headquarters was in Nashville. So I called the only US Customer Service number I could find and I got a man in the Freight Department. He was nice, signed me up for text alerts and told me that the package would not be delivered until 6/28/2021. So on the 26th I was not home (my mom is dying and I help take care of her).

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

    This morning 6/28/2021 was the FIRST TIME I received the text that it is out for delivery. I have a sign on the front of my house that says "FEDEX IDIOT I AM HOME. BANG ON THE WOOD DOOR BECAUSE I WILL BE IN THE BACK OF THE HOUSE." Who knows maybe I will actually get the package now. I will never use this awful service again. I am putting what happened all over the internet. There is more that has happened but I am not going through all of it. I was transferred out of the US to El Salvador where they speak English. So that is 2 call centers in other countries. Americans are out of work and they can't even hire Americans or someone that speaks English.

    I don't normally use FedEx but due to Amazon not having what I wanted I recently got to experience their service. So first package was a king sized headboard bought from Wayfair and shipped through FedEx. Package got lost in transit for 3 days and when it finally was found and arrived there was a hole in the box that luckily only caused minor damage to the back of the headboard. Second was a Walmart order for a car drill attachment orbital polisher. Again FedEx took care of shipping. I was supposed to get it on June 18. It only just arrived on June 23. Overall I hope I never have to use them again. I never had any issues with Amazon, UPS, or USPS shipping.

    We ordered wine which was supposed to be delivered over the weekend. It was not. They then attempted to deliver it while we were at work but took it back since it needs a signature. Keep in mind, they've never actually gotten a signature from us in all the times they've delivered to us. I went online and rerouted it so it could be held at a Shaw's supermarket nearby. It said it would be delivered the next day. When I didn't get a confirmation, I called. The first person I spoke with said she'd expedite it and make sure it would be delivered that evening. I didn't hear back again, so I called.

    The second woman I spoke with said that it had indeed been delivered and it was ready for pickup. We drove to Shaws and waited in line only to be told there had been no such delivery. Frustrated, we called for a third time. The man we spoke with apologized and told us that Shaws wouldn't accept packages on that size and wasn't an option. We asked how we could get our package.. He said he'd have it delivered the next day after 5pm when we'd be home. I asked for a confirmation by text or email while we were on the phone which he refused to do.

    We hung up and called a fourth time.. When the fourth person couldn't help, we asked for a supervisor which was no better than the last four people. I asked if their calls were recorded so he could hear what we've been told.. Ultimately, we spent about 45 minutes on this final call, and we've yet to get a resolution. I am disgusted and will NEVER use this company in any capacity. Our wine will be ruined by the time we get it, if that even ever happens. We still don't know if it will definitely be where they say it will since they refuse to send us a confirmation.

    I ordered a breast pump thru my insurance and it got shipped thru Fed Ex in the matter of five days. My package changed cities that's 30 minutes apart. When it finally reached Ohio it again changed cities that are not even 30 minutes apart in 2 days. The last bit of updating on the package is a city that's an hour away. It's been like that for 3 days. It doesn't take 3+ days to deliver a package that is one hour away from its location. Not to mention my delivery date was a week ago.

    My mother died suddenly not long after taking the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. I packed some of her belongings, including beautiful glassware, very carefully and professionally as I have moved many times and never had anything broken in transit. The packages arrived at my Malibu address split all the way along two sides, with glass broken inside all over the place. Someone must have THROWN these boxes or worse... it sure looks like someone abused these boxes and some of my neighbors wonder if it was the Malibu address and stereotypes re: people who live here. I ship via UPS all the time and have never seen anything like this. The local FedEx driver is a very hostile man who seems deranged, so that could be it as well.

    Fedex decided to use an adult signature for my Xbox series x during the Xbox shortage. I'm going to miss my delivery because I'm going to be working. Had Walmart told me fedex was the default, I would have changed the delivery location. Fedex apparently has this special code that they give to their partners to talk to fedex on behalf of the purchaser. So walmart tells me the terms are the shipper, and I can't do anything about it. Fedex tells me to talk to walmart. See the problem here? It's an infinite closed loop. Neither one of these places want to help me. They just want to get their hands on my Xbox.

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

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

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

    I purchased a beautiful pair of earrings on eBay and they were mailed to me on May 27. According to FedEx tracking something happened to them that caused the package to be relabeled on June 3. There are tire treads on the package so I believe that they were run over. Rather than notify me of this blunder, FedEx sent a dirty, opened package on to be delivered to me on June 7. The driver left the package on my porch and literally ran for the truck. I called FedEx right away after taking pictures to find out what to do and was told how to make a claim. I did so and my claim was denied. My suggestion, DO NOT TRUST FEDEX. They do not take responsibility for your goods!!! I have lost earrings money and wasted time.

    My package arrived and was kept instead of being delivered or returned. There is no communication with partners about what should be sent. It is only after paying a a chunk of money, and sending the package that they say it is supposed to be accompanied by manufacturer documentation. Why doesn't the shipping office know this? What fairness is this?

    The expectation is that there is proper communication between the sender, the company and the receiver but none of that happened. I had a pressing need and I was kept suffering for almost two months, till I called and then the package was sent back. No communication with the shipper from the other end either. My suffering was unwarranted. Every customer requires effective service, that is why they entrust their packages to the company and so need to be informed about the status of the package at all times. Thank you for poor service.

    Someone sent me some paperwork through FedEx the other day and the lazy driver happened to come by while we were at the store. Since I don't drive anymore it is very inconvenient to go out and in any case I do NOT go to Walgreens because the employees at the store in my area are incompetent and rude. Since the package did NOT require a signature it should have been left at my front door but the FedEx driver decided to divert it to the Local Walgreens leaving a notice to pick it up there instead.

    I tried calling FedEx "customer service" but in addition to having to fight my way through a really crappy voice recognition program (newsflash big corporations some people these programs don't work with for some reason and I am one of them) I talked to someone who had no idea how to do her job and told me I had to pick it up.

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

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

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

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

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

    This is the second time I didn’t receive a package. First time I ordered $200 sneakers and never received them. So I had to wait a week or more to get my money back. This time I ordered $70 worth of supplements and I have been home all day looking for it and went to FedEx tracking and it said it was delivered. I believe someone is stealing packages in this area. I sent the company I ordered from to let them know to file a claim to get my money back or they can resend post office, but by all means do not ship FedEx. Customer service is a joke a few other people stated that and it is true they don’t even care. I checked outside, downstairs, everywhere no package in site and I’ve been waiting for it. I will not use them ever again period. If a company uses them I’ll pay for overnight or they use snail mail or they won’t see my dollars. This is ridiculous. You should not have to worry about someone taking your things from a company that is suppose to be legit.

    Every time I use FedEx ground they are always late. They will give a delivery time and never meet it. They will give excuses such as "the business was closed" even though it's going to a residential area. It will sit in your state for several days only to find out it has now been shipped across the country and now needs to get back to you. The incompetency is insane. It isn't even like they're saving money by sending your package around the country several times over so I don't know why this keeps happening. Doesn't matter who I order from, where it's coming from. This always happens. A delivery was supposed to arrive yesterday, later that day I find it's several states over and now they're expecting it to be delivered in 5 more days. One day to mess up and 5 days to fix it? Whenever I have the option I will ALWAYS pick something other than FedEx even if it means paying more. I would avoid them like the plague.

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

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

The driver did not ring the doorbell but speed walked away without responding to my eldest son who asked her about why she threw the package. If she was unable to hold it properly she should have used a dolly to aid her in safely bringing the package to the front porch. My son brought the box inside my home and all he could say was that he was sorry but it was definitely not handled with care. The box was damaged, wet, and barely sealed, dented, and missing one of the water gallons in the order. The gallons I received were dented and some of the gallons were low on water.

    I was shocked that they did not handle the items I ordered or this delivery with more respect. If the problem was the sender they should have returned it to sender and explained they would not deliver items not packaged properly and notified me of the problem with my delivery and offer knowledgeable guidance of how to fix the problem.

I spoke with a FedEx rep today only to be told in numerous conversations that is "unfortunate" that I haven't received my parcel. To add insult to injury, the rep confirmed that the company still proceeded in sending the parcel to the wrong address.

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

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

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

Customer service reps are liars! General manager at the local facility (45 minutes away from me) can't tell me when my package will even get to me. It's been sitting in Emporia, VA for 8 days. Not even receiving updated scans. If FedEx can't make their 3 day shipping then they need to stop charging for it!! Never again with FedEx.

    Twice this month a Fedex package was to be delivered and each time it was tagged "WRONG ADDRESS, Cannot be delivered." The address from the shipper and Fedex tracking showed a correct address. I was home all day to receive. Now, I have to remain at home for the next two days until the package arrives. No notice, no apologies.

    FedEx is the worst shipping company ever. I had a package sent priority overnight and I was told it would arrive yesterday. It didn’t arrive and now the horrible customer service rep tried to tell me that priority overnight doesn’t really mean overnight it actually means two business days...WHAT?!?! On top of that, when I asked if I could go pick it up, I was told that “a pick-up order takes 24-48 hours to process". Basically, they don’t want to help and they don’t care.

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

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

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

    I recently received a package, which was a return from US to Canada. I found the package on my door step. On the invoice attached to the package was no charges owned indicated and I did doublecheck with the tracking on the website. There was no charges due mentioned. 3 weeks later I am receiving an invoice for 59$ various fees, customs, HST etc. I was not contacted by FedEx in any way before or after the delivery to be advised that will be charges associated with the delivery. No signature was requested nor advised anyone about the delivery. Called FEDEX customer service and no resolution provided. They just told me to dispute it. I don't have any legal contract with FEDEX and didn't sign any document for shipping or receiving or to authorize FEDEX to be my representative before the customs. I will sent a complaint to the Federal consumer protection Canada to deal with the issue. FEDEX has the worst customer service, rude and arrogant.

    Updated on 03/08/2021: So I've already posted on here last week. I've called Fedex dozen times, they don't care at all! My package was suppose to be here a week ago. Like I've stated before, I paid for OVERNIGHT. All they keep saying is a new date every day it doesn't come! Now if I lose my job because of them then what? That's the whole reason of the package being here in 1 day. I ordered a part so my car works again. Could only get the part online. Otherwise I would have gotten it at a local auto store. Why would fedex even let someone pay for overnight when they clearly know they can't fulfill the agreement? This company NEEDS to be shut down and let Ups expand and take over. A snow storm in 1 state over 2 weeks ago is what their trying to blame it on but yet ups has no problems. Excuses for lazy unorganized garbage company to take people's money and not do what they promised! Million negative stars!!!!

    Original review: I ordered a car part to fix my car so I can go about my days again. Needed it fast. Paid $600 for the part and $250 for overnight shipping so I can hurry this up. It's now been a week since I ordered the part and 5 days since FedEx has had the part. It went from Flint, Michigan to Memphis, TN, then back to Flint and has just been sitting there for 2 days! I PAID $250 for this to come in 24 HOURS!!! This package is literally stalling my whole life, and all the idiots at fedex say when I call is it'll be there today or it'll be there on the 5th and this and that, she even tried telling me today that it's in Flint and that I'll be getting it tonite even tho it said by noon.

    Guess what? I'm in Massachusetts, about 500 miles away from Flint. There's no way in hell it'll be here today. This is the 1st and last time I'll EVER use fedex. UPS only. Can't believe this company. And if I didn't complain these people would actually steal my $250 and not say anything. Ground shipping my package would have only costed like 60 or 70 bucks.

    I mailed a package using FedEx 2-Day Guarantee. When I asked the lady at the counter, "Will this be delivered in 2-Days Guaranteed," she responded, "Yes, by 8PM." I mailed my package on 2/8/21. The package was delivered on 2/17/21. I was constantly contacting FedEx regarding this package. I found the employees is be either rude, have a "I don't care" attitude, or they out and out lied to me. What do I have to say to the employees who lied to me? I sell online and mail packages out 5 days a week. If you are going to blame the weather, you need to make sure there is a storm either where the package was mailed from, or the route it will be traveling along, or the destination.

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

    Received a call 1 day in advance for a freight delivery. FedEx freight driver parked in the oncoming traffic lane on a state road. He called to ask if I had a forklift. When I told him that I did not have a forklift and was in a boot due to a foot injury, he requested that I come outside. I had to hobble to the top of a 220 ft driveway, to meet this lazy driver, during which I could hear cars honking as they could not see around his truck - which was parked in the oncoming traffic lane on a hill with a corner that prevented traffic from seeing around him. He refused to drive the truck down the driveway, and unloaded this attachment at the top of my driveway. It's only about 5-6 feet square and weighs 500 lbs.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    I had a package that was paid for 2-day delivery, and it was shipped on Feb 23rd and guaranteed to come on the 25th, and my package didn't come. Things happen, so ok. Then the 26th rolls around and I get another out for delivery notification just to have it rescheduled again! I called customer service and they promised and guaranteed me that the package will be here Today the 27th, and guess what? The package was rescheduled once again for the 2nd for some reason. I'm not sure what the point of 2-day shipping is with FedEx if my package doesn't come. I have to add that I've received shipments from UPS that departed from California, Texas, and Kansas and all my packages came within 3 days without paying for the faster shipping.

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

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

My package arrived at my local hub, and then got shipped out of my state to be dropped off at a USPS facility where it got lost in the shuffle. They could have at least dropped it at a local USPS facility. So what was supposed to be 5 to 7 day delivery, took nearly a month to get my package.

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

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

    I also asked why Fedex did not update their system to show the proper tracking and he again gave me the same answer. So in all reality, my package was picked up by FedEx on 2/18/21 as an overnight delivery and due to weather, they cannot get it to me until 2/24/21, maybe! The representative could not narrow down the timing of the package so I have to take a day off from work as he stated it would arrive between 8am-8pm, so I can sign for it. The representative couldn't even be sure it would finally arrive on 2/24. This is the absolute most disgusting experience I have ever had with a delivery company.

I have called twice and had the same generic answer given blaming it on the weather. Yet my son in Texas sent me a package 2 days on this Wednesday and I received it that same Saturday the same week. They are liars and offer no refund on my 2 day delivery fee. LIARS and untrustworthy to do business with.

    Updated on 08/17/2024: Resolved.

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

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

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

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

It was supposed to arrive on a Thursday and was delayed. The tracking website indicated "pending" for 5 days. I called every night for updates and the only information I was provided was that a case was created. Then all of a sudden, the following Monday, the tracking website updated to "delivered" but said the package was delivered on Thursday. It is now the following Tuesday and I still do not have the phone.

    We had some very important papers being sent from Chicago to Arizona. In all cases of this review FedEx was paid to deliver papers by noon or earlier. It never occurred in three instances within one week. In the first case papers sent priority overnight for receipt by noon on a Monday were delivered at 11:23 am but to the WRONG ADDRESS. Wrong street, wrong town. FedEx's website reported the delivery as fine and on time. I waited all day for the package. By that night, it was revealed that they had delivered to some other random address.

    By Tuesday night it showed up in Tempe, AZ to be again processed. The new label said that it was to be delivered by noon Wed. (2 days late and FedEx doesn't care. The package had been just miles from our since at least Sunday afternoon.) I waited again. No package by noon. We requested a duplicate package by resent. The first package arrived at 3:15 pm Wed. Obviously, arrival time was not important to FedEx or delivery accuracy. FedEx claimed weather delayed our package. Ha! Arizona sunshine is so unexpected and 70 degree temps are horrible!

    The second package was due Thurs at noon. It never showed up. Meanwhile, we filled out the first package and attached the included label for overnight priority to Chicago. It was to be delivered by 10 am. It showed up at 3:15 pm. Hey, at least it was the same day. The second package containing duplicates of the original package and promised for Thurs by noon, was thrown at the door on Friday at 1:13 pm. I guess I should be happy it was the same week or who knows where it would have sat. FedEx customer service was rude. They hung up on me during the first call because I wanted to explain the entire story at one time. They did not want to listen.

I am new to FedEx, just opened an account in November 2020 as a small business owner. The sales rep assured me that I would never have any problems unlike with the post office and guaranteed delivery of my packages on time. My items are all perishable and I pay to sent everything overnight. I ended up spending $1,479 in shipping. I have 3 packages that were to be delivered overnight and they arrived late - i.e., one arrived 2 days late, the other arrived 3 days late, and the third one arrived 5 days late. Of course the customers had to discard the items because they could no longer eat them; otherwise, they would be sick. So I had to send the customers a new order at no cost to them.

    I called FedEx to complain and of course it took forever to get to a customer service person only to be told that they are not issuing refunds for shipping because of COVID-19 - their pretext to not pay for late delivery??? What does COVID have to do with late delivery??? When I asked about reimbursement of content (since that is supposed to be insured) I got a "well, that is up to the claims department". So I was transferred to claims only to be told to file and "see if they decide to reimburse". I asked for a supervisor because spending $1,479 as a small business is a lot of money to spend with FedEx on shipping to receive such poor customer service.

    I filed the claim in December and called today to get a status only for the customer service rep to state "I don't know what they told you to file a claim since we do not reimburse for perishable items" WTH!** This time they did not use COVID as an excuse. Just straight up we do not reimburse for perishable. I asked to speak to a supervisor and was told that there is no supervisor to talk to. That they can transfer me to customer advocate but they "don't know anything about the claims department". I have closed my account and WILL NEVER use FedEx ever again.

    FEDEX has gone from my favorite and most reliable shipper to the worst (even behind USPS). Every company blames "Covid-19" for every complaint. FedEx will probably state the same. This is a bogus excuse when most other companies are not having similar issues. Customer Service Via Phone - Forget about it. No live person exists via phone. If you call you end up in fedex phone option hell. Just stating "customer service" doesn't work. You will spend a minimum of 15 minutes trying every possible fedex phone option with the hope of reaching a live person. Your desperation and anger will peak around this time but don't worry about slamming / breaking your phone or yelling profanity as you hang up. The virtual fedex disgruntled assistant hangs up on you with a smug "please call us back when you decide what you want" essentially robbing you of the opportunity to hang up on fedex first.

    Customer Service Via Email - Forget about it. This option doesn't exist per their website. Customer Service Via Website - Forget about it. This option doesn't exist per their website. Drivers - Incompetent. For signature packages half the drivers require signature during COVID-19 while the other half state no signature is required per fedex COVID-19 guidelines.

    Deliveries - Always late by days 75% of the time. I have never in all of my life had shipping be this bad in all of my life. Fedex has become worse than the USPS for deliveries. Delivery Notifications - Aside from being notified that a package has been delivered their notifications are inaccurate. Their delivery notifications of being late or rescheduled occur during or after the actual time when delivery was supposed to have occurred. This is a huge waste of a person's time. Again this happens with 75% of deliveries.

    I will never use Fedex services after my last experience with them. They blatantly lied to me multiple times and ended up 'losing', then destroying my package and refusing to reimburse me for it. First, Fedex tells me they tried to deliver my package but it was refused upon delivery attempt. Never happened... I then tried to go to the nearby Fedex center to retrieve my package within days of this notification. As instructed by Fedex, I show up to the facility and they tell me my package is being sent back to the sender (my mother). I wait a week, then two, and nothing. I call them and they tell me it's at the facility to be picked up...I then explained I already went there and they told me it was being sent back.

    Long story short, I ended up having to call them every few days to try and get an update. They told me it was lost, then found, then being sent back, then sent out of state to Texas, Tennessee, and eventually Mississippi. I asked to be assigned to someone specific but was told that was not possible. Every time I called I had to speak with a new person and then catch them up on everything...I was also told that multiple case files had been opened for me and the number I referenced was actually no longer valid AND they would not tell me the other case numbers for privacy reasons!! Every staff member I spoke with was also not allowed to provide his/her last name for this reason...so it was never possible to follow up with the same staff member. I was told to 'be patient' and wait 24 hours on multiple occasions.

    In the end, FedEx told me that they destroyed my package, despite my constant attempts to retrieve it. I was then denied a full reimbursement of my package. I understand that mistakes happen but I tried from the beginning to get my package and I was sent on a wild goose chase. This was not my fault. I had to fight for a partial refund and this went on from August 2020-January 2021!! After receiving their responses direct from them, it is clear to me that customers do not matter to Fedex. I am now seeing there are plenty of people who have unfortunately had the same experience with them. I used their services many times but after the complete chaos caused by them and the complete disregard for me, I will encourage others to not use their services! Shameful.

I called requesting if there was an offer they could me for wasting my day waiting for them practically all day, and they said nope. Make another pick up appointment. As if I would trust them to come after what happened today! Pretty much telling me they don't care about me as a paying customer. Apparently this is the service I'm PAYING for. Never again will I waste money on such horrible customer service and delivery service.

    I have always used FedEx and all its shipping and will continue to use them as they are by far the best in the world. I love the delivery staff also due to the most professional delivery services I have ever used and experienced.

    We recently moved into our home. Have been ordering online during the pandemic. 3 times in 2 months FedEx has delivered items for other people to our home. Called and they said they would come by to pick up and deliver to proper address. 3 times this never happened. I had to track down the address and phone calls to get items to the proper people. Along with this, my packages are being delivered to wrong addresses. Seems like this driver just pulls up and pulls out any package and drops it on a doorstep. Customer service with FedEx is terrible. They say they will call you back and never hear from them. They even go as far as to put in their notes that they called and left a message but never have. Cannot get any answers on a phone call, they refuse to transfer to a supervisor or have a supervisor call you back. I am requesting places I order from not to ship with them ever again. I will never use them for anything!

    Believe it or not... I dropped off a critical package (a hard drive full of encrypted medical data) for FedEx Priority Overnight Saturday Delivery on Friday Dec 18, 2020, and 3 days later the package had NOT EVEN BEEN PICKED UP. So on Monday Dec 21, 2020, I went to the Walgreens drop off location, got the package back out of the Fedex cabinet with employee help, and DROVE it to the destination in my vehicle. I understand that Fedex is in their busy season and dropped the ball, but the part I don't understand is they refuse to refund the delivery charge. They NEVER PICKED IT UP, never provided any service, and refused to refund the charge on my card.

    Chris was the Fedex call center guy. He said he didn't have an agent ID and refused to deny my request with an email. He cited a COVID-19 exception to their normal guarantee. CRAZY. So I disputed the charge with Capital One VISA... the helpful call center rep said this is the best story she had hear all day. And of course I am posting this rant that is well deserved by customer no service at Fedex.???
