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

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

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

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

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

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

    With the exception of one package, lately FedEx has not been on time with deliveries, does not pay attention to how you request placement of your packages, and does not give updates like you requested. What in the world has happened to this company? UPS is so much better. Unfortunately, you can't tell companies your choice of which company you want to deliver your packages. I would not have given them a one star rating at all but you have to give at least a one!!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! Guess I'm going to have to stop doing online shopping???

    I did not receive my package despite the fact on FedEx site they are saying it was delivered. I asked for prove, they could not mention that in the house there dogs barking a lot. This made me think that the package was not delivered to my address. We received many packages from various places but was never lost. Do not use FEDEX unless the signature is required.

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

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

I schedule for pickup from FedEx location from choices automated system gave, which was: 2199 Monterey Rd Suite 50, San Jose, CA 95125. 3. I got text message saying "Package is ready" within an hour. 4. That's all! I called several time, all I get is: "It is held at: 696 E Trimble Rd, San Jose, CA 95131". Not ready for pickup.

    I would rather not give any stars at all. They are horrible. Back in December, I had $700.00 phones that was suppose to be delivered. I never received them and believe that since I DID not sign for them, that they went back to the consumer. Was I wrong!!! I never thought I had a reason to look at my credit card payment because I was paying it automatically out of my checking. Now I am finding out that FedEx let someone else sign for these phones and I am still responsible for it.

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

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

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

    To be honest, if I had the money and the power, I'd fire the whole Customer Support & Delivery Team in Switzerland, as they are absolute nightmare. Every time I get a parcel delivered by Jeunesse, which happens to be Monthly, but every time, even after having given consent at least 8 months ago, that they can place the parcel in the Letter Box or give it to my Neighbour if I am not around, the Delivery still leaves a card there to re-schedule the delivery once more, because they could not reach me. I have given consent verbally over the Phone 4 Times. I have given consent written by email at least 4 Times. And I have sent in their Consent Form at least 3 Times. Yet they still don't have that saved on my File and every time I complain, all they do is send me another consent form to fill out, to prevent it from happening again.

    How many times needs one to confirm consent and verify one's details, before they finally put it on file and I get the parcels delivered without having to jump through administration crap because of them not being organized!!! If I had my choice, I would never use FedEx again, but because they do deliveries for Jeunesse which I like the products from, I don't have that choice yet. But I will make sure, that when I get the power to make that choice, that I will no longer use FedEx!!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    This is the second package (FedEx Priority Overnight) in two weeks where the driver did NOT obtain a signature. I don't request a Direct Signature unless I need the signature for my records that the papers were delivered and received by someone. Both times I have checked "Direct Signature" and both times the tracking information states "Delivered - Signature Not Required." I was told by the receiving city that the sending city is incorrectly entering what is on the Airbill.

    I have sent the copy by email and by fax to FedEx showing that "Direct Signature" was in fact checked. When I call Customer Service they see the same info I do when looking at the tracking report. I called to ask for a number or email to write to the local office but they would not give me ANY information. Obviously I will have to stop using their services because it is imperative that I have a signature on the receiving end. They have left me with no choice and horrible customer service. The CS agent on the phone is terribly polite and trying to help but their hands are tied. This is the fault of FedEx Corporate and not the fault of their CS Agents. VERY POORLY RUN COMPANY DECISION = BAD COMPANY.

I kept checking online to see updates on where my package was but they didn’t keep it updated. I had to keep calling customer service but got nowhere. I wind up re-routing the package by having it sent to the nearest FedEx because I just knew I was going to miss them. But after I did that, I realized the package was going to be too heavy to get up my stairs at home. I tried calling to have the package re routed back to my house & they said it was nothing they could do & didn’t even try to help me.

However the driver was not going to be back at main hub until 8 so that's 5 hours he was going to be out somewhere deliver yet not to me. I am not stupid and know the games well. Dealt with UPS for years and know what happens. Thought FedEx would be better.

    Drivers are given schedules as to exact delivery on each package by a certain time and if missed well they toss it into exception and move on unless it's a premium fee charge package. Really? Ground is your backbone yet you disrespect the customers every way you can. Your stupidity cost me 5.000 on a wedding and so I will never ship with your business again. USPS is far better in times, cost and for the most part the drivers are nice. Maybe you and that crap brown UPS can join forces.

The tracking only showed the city it was delivered to, not the exact address. The ship to address was all correct. I contacted customer service to find out the exact address it was delivered to but they were completely useless and were not able to provide any additional info. other than the tracking info I already obviously had.

    I kept asking for the exact address and they just said it was delivered to the ship to address. But it wasn't altho they just continued to say the same thing or when I email them pasted in the same prewritten/template like responses which didn't answer any of my questions. I felt like I was talking to a dumb robot as opposed to an actual person that cared, wanted to help and had resources to do so. They couldn't be bothered with doing any additional research or maybe contacting the driver. Such a waste. I ended up calling the local post office and to my surprise they said they had it!? And the lady there signed for it. And they will deliver it to the customer in the next day or so. Also they said this happens all the time.

    Not sure if FedEx drivers would rather drop a bunch of packages off at the post office that need to be signed for to save time or what but if so customer service obviously isn't aware. My customer should have received the package that day. They had an electrician lined up which they had to then reschedule. Unacceptable & disappointing. I've seen other reviews with people saying USPS delivered their package even tho they went thru FedEx. Prob same thing. Also the reviews of people saying they were home and saw the driver drive away and their package shows delivered...but it wasn't. Well I guess it's prob at the post office.

I need to mention that my video surveillance system is recording the driver. The driver stops in front of my house and never gets out of vehicle. It takes him 5 minutes to look in the back of his truck, and sit back into the driver's seat, driving down the street. I figured something is weird, but I will be patient. The time stamp is 306pm.

    A hour has passed and Ii know that I don't see a package on my porch, but FedEx app show package delivered at 4pm. I now panic and file an investigation. I have been on a standby and "we will call you soon" arrangement. The FedEx call center acts like they can't get in touch with their driver's GPS Unit.

The worse part of this all, he didn’t even ring my doorbell which would have given me the opportunity to talk him that, "I can open the door for you remotely to place the packages indoors safely." UPS and USPS are worlds better by all accounts.

    FedEx has the worst reputation of any carrier. I have had packages delivered opened, LATE, thrown from the ground to the porch (camera btw). I have never had these issues with either UPS or USPS. If you have these issues with FedEx, notify your vendor and let them know that they should consider making a change to their delivery selection. If you don't complain they cannot know how bad the FedEx service is.

    FedEx smartpost is anything but that, and the customer service via email is abhorrent. It took the CSS department a week to tell me that that can’t do anything when a call accomplished the same result in an hour. Ordinarily I would not complain about a single lost package. The issue I have is that FedEx smart post has successfully lost two packages. The original one and the package sent by the company to replace the first lost package. Thanks to Fedex smartpost, I have neither package. Great job guys!

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

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

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

    3. Missed the guy by 10 minutes ( was waiting next to the window, didn't see the FedEx truck, the delivery guy must have been on foot for the delivery) and called the customer care immediately at 2:40. Apparently, the matter was escalated and there was supposed to be another attempt by 3:30 the same day. Sat outside the house till 3:45 pm.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

FedEx drivers buy their route then speed as sloppily as possible through their routes-rarely knocking to deliver anything. If you have signature confirmation, your FedEx driver will NOT knock! He will stealthily sneak up to your door stick on a blank sticker-then speed away. Three times in the last year, i.e., every time I have used FedEx in the last year, the driver refused to knock even though I am awake and expecting my package.

    Your FedEx driver has decided that your $60 postage does not warrant his attention anymore- he would prefer that you make his life easy and pick it up at the office. America has stopped using USPS due to theft and incompetence. FedEx is just as lazy and incompetent. UPS will be getting all of my business from now on.

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

    FedEx has managed to misdeliver my package AGAIN! I have called to locate my packages and I get their customer service who can't seem to comprehend that my package is sitting at somebody else's house! I do the usual check - front porch, side porch, backyard, garage, and nope, no package. No notice, nothing. Last time, my wonderful fresh flowers were delivered somewhere else and 3 days later, it shows up at my front door, box upside down.... As result, my flowers were dry and wilted. THANKS FEDEX!!! I now have a package from Wayfair that FedEx supposedly left at my front door. Definitely not at my front door. In the last 3 months, FedEx has misdelivered 3 times. Their batting average is 1 for 4. Oh and no apologies from FedEx.

    I ordered from a meal delivery company with delivery set for Monday. Status showed it was on the truck for delivery but then in the evening said no attempt was made and they rescheduled for following day. AGAIN it was on the truck for delivery and might I add they delivered my printer ink but no food and again in the evening it shows “scheduled delivery pending”. Don’t they know fresh food needs to be delivered within a certain time frame? They certainly can’t miss the name on box. Pretty incompetent...This isn’t the first time they’ve out of the blue rescheduled delivery that had nothing to do with weather.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I think he stole it and I think that if a driver can leave a package anywhere because of no signature then that policy sucks and should be changed!

Because if they ship it out by FedEx you pretty much know when it will be delivered. But when they delivered by USPS you have to wait around for the mail carrier. I did google it and found out that they have what's called simple ship which is a cheaper rate when FedEx delivers it to the post office and the post office delivers it. From now on when it says how much shipping is I'm going to ask is this being delivered by FedEx or will it be delivered by USPS. Though I did find a tracking through USPS and they said by the end of the day but knowing our carrier and I'm in a senior building we don't know when that is. There's no set time that they deliver.

The day they were to arrive, my landlord had hired my company to do yard & tree service. While the trucks, trailers and crew were outside, all with company name covering them, we all watched the FedEx driver pass by twice. Never stopped. At the stop sign 4 doors down, I got the alert my package had been delivered-AT THE FRONT DOOR! I called immediately and was told to ask my neighbors and check my neighbors porches and finally they would look into it, call and have the package resent. The resent order, same thing. Said they delivered at front door and nothing. I have cameras everywhere. No FedEx showed up but I got the alert saying delivered.

    To my surprise, a good Samaritan walking her dog came to my door. She tells me that I have a package behind my house... IN THE ALLEY! I called FedEx and demanded a supervisor. I was told that he would look into it. A week later, more supplies sent and again alerted that package was at front door, but nothing was there. So I walked down the block and around to the alley to see if yet again my package was left in the alley. While I was walking around, my neighbor was coming from the alley throwing trash and stopped me. Saying he found my very heavy and fragile package in the alley! He drove me and my package back to my house and helped carry it to my front door.

    I called FedEx yet again and complained again only to get this lady on the phone who had an attitude with me because Google Maps shows my house sits near the back of the property so apparently that gives the driver permission to leave packages in the ALLEY! She was just as rude to me as the driver is by not delivering correctly. I have been at this residence for 4 years and never had an issue until April till current. I have yet to receive any call backs or follow-throughs concerning my complaints.

    I unfortunately have a package being delivered today via FedEx. One can only hope that 4 phone calls to supervisors (at least that's who they said they were) will prove worth it and actually have my packages delivered to my front door. I should also mention that there are delivery instructions specifically stating to deliver to the FRONT RED DOOR using the DRIVEWAY off my STREET-NOT THE ALLEY! Fingers crossed and saying prayers.

    I’m only giving Fedex one star because I have no other choice. They don’t even deserve one star. My husband and I sent some packages from D.C. to our new location (in another state). We used FedEx to deliver our important boxes due to not having enough room in our vehicle. Once we made it to our new destination we were notified that all of our boxes except two had arrived. Days later the other two boxes “arrived” to the place that we had them delivered to. One of the boxes that we were anxiously waiting for contained all of my husband books for his medical residency. You can only imagine how expensive these books were. When we opened the box that was suppose to contain his medical books we were shocked. There was not one single medical book in the box, but instead it contained many other books that weren't ours (approximately 15). There was however two items that was ours in the box.

    I quickly called FedEx to let them know about this mix up, and the lady I spoke with said that she had no clue how this could of happened. She took my number and said that she would be contacting me after she made a few calls. A couple hour later we received a phone call from the same FedEx employee stating that our packaging may have been damaged, but they were still unsure as to why we were sent the wrong books. This box had all of our information on it, but the items in it did not belong to us.

    I filed a complaint with FedEx and their response was extremely rude and unprofessional. I was told that we wouldn’t be getting any money back from the books that were missing which cost thousands dollars. They said as far as they were concerned it is showing that we received all of the packages that we were suppose to. In other words the employee that I originally spoke with never made note of the huge mix up. Also, when I asked about the other person's belongings they stated “throw them away”. How could they be okay getting rid of someone else's items because they are trying to hide the fact that they lost our books and don’t want to own up to it.

    Here we are months later having to repurchase the books. With all of this being said I spoke with some of the most unprofessional/vile FedEx employees who not only showed no remorse, but also would not attempt to find the owner of the other books. I do not recommend this company to anyone. The employees should also have further training on how to handle these type situations, and how to communicate with the customers.

I also checked with my neighbors and they hadn't seen the package either. I called FedEx at 6:10 PM on May 21, 2019, to let them know that the package hadn't arrived. The FedEx representative told me that the package had been delivered to the wrong address and would be retrieved and delivered to my front door by 10:30 am on Thursday, May 23, 2019.

    The package was not delivered on May 23, 2019. When I followed up with FedEx later that day, the same representative I spoke to earlier denied ever telling me that my package was delivered to the wrong address and asked me several times "why would I tell you that?" He then insisted that the package had in fact been delivered to my front door at 1:58 pm on May 21, 2019.

    When I asked how the FedEx representative could prove that the package had been delivered to my front door, he said that GPS tracking put the driver at my address on May 21, 2019, at 1:58 pm and that he spoke to the driver who verbally confirmed the delivery. Instead of acknowledging that FedEx misdelivered my package, the FedEx representative backtracked and tried to blame the missing package on package thieves. He also said that I may want to start having packages delivered to my local FedEx location instead of having them delivered to my home address.

    Since I never received my new phone, I called my insurance company to let them know that they'd have to file a missing item claim with FedEx. I then filed a second insurance claim so I could actually get my replacement phone. This whole process took multiple calls with FedEx and Asurion and took the better part of my workday.

    This process was made even more difficult because FedEx continued to insist that the package had been delivered to my address. This created a situation where my insurance company had to try to decide whether they should trust my account of events or FedEx's. My insurance company agreed to send me a new phone via FedEx.

He said that when he delivered the package, the front door of our apartment complex was propped open, so he slipped the package inside the door and marked the package as delivered. The delivery man then asked my partner multiple times if we "were cool with our neighbors," and implied that one of our neighbors stole my package.

    For the record, I live in a small apartment complex. All tenants have lived there for 3+ years, and we've never had issues with each other. Yesterday, June 2, 2019, I received a package at my front door. It was the missing package that several FedEx representatives insisted had been delivered to my front door on May 21, 2019. The package was delivered with a note from my neighbor stating that the package had been mistakenly delivered to their home.

    Throughout this entire process, FedEx representatives were consistently rude, dismissive, and deceitful. Instead of owning up to the fact that FedEx made a mistake and delivered my package to the wrong address, FedEx lied and stuck to their story that the package was delivered to my home. This put the onus on me to figure out what had actually happened, and put me at risk of having to pay the deductible for my new phone twice.

    Because of FedEx's unprofessionalism and deceitfulness, I had to work without a fully functioning phone for over a week, which negatively impacted my productivity at work. I also had to spend the better part of a workday on the phone with FedEx and my insurance company. Throughout this process, FedEx caused me an undue amount of stress, cost me hours time, put my job performance at risk, made my insurance company question my credibility, and potentially cost me money. On top of all of this, FedEx attempted to cover their failure to carry out their duties by implying that my neighbors are thieves. I'm appalled at FedEx's lack of customer service, accountability, and integrity.

    INCOMPETENT SERVICE. This week alone I missed two work deadlines because of FedEx mistakes. One package was delivered to and signed for at a completely wrong address despite the correct label. It was recovered and redelivered to me after scheduled delivery date and my work deadline. The second package was scheduled to be delivered on Saturday. The status changed from out for delivery to business closed unable to accept package despite no delivery attempt at all. Someone at FedEx decided, incorrectly and unilaterally, that despite the shippers request, the label and scheduled delivery, my business was closed on Saturday and would not be able to accept delivery. CHOOSE ANOTHER METHOD OF SHIPMENT.

    At Christmas time I had $1325.00 worth of packages delivered to the wrong address. Called the company I ordered from and said I waited at home for the packages but I did not receive them. They shipped out replacements and opened a claim to investigate. Same thing happened with my replacement packages. I called really upset. They sent out another replacement and I changed my delivery to a pick up location down the street. I finally barely before Christmas received my packages. The first week in January I had $2700 deducted from my bank account. Apparently FedEx tried to say they delivered them. They failed to leave out that they delivered them to the WRONG ADDRESS!!!

    So this week I had a package I needed overnight standard. It would be here by Friday morning. It was shipped with the wrong label. So I had to open a FedEx Business account. I was told once the FedEx driver had possession of my package the shipping label would be corrected. The minute it was scanned I called FedEx. They contacted the driver and he said he refused to find my package. They would need to fix it at the sorting location. The sorting location manager refused to find my package although they scanned it. I was then told no matter what they would find it at the loading dock at the airport. The Oakland manager as well refused to find it. My package flew 12 hours after I paid to receive it. But then it fell off the earth from there.

    It would have arrived shortly before midnight Friday night. Skipped the sorting location. Then was scanned in 15 minutes after they closed. Was told by customer service who contacted the location in possession of my package that it will sit until Monday to be sorted before being sent to my pick up location. Every step along the way whoever handled my package was unwilling to do their job. I wonder what would happen if any one of them came into the hospital I worked and said they needed to wait until the next shift because their needs weren’t important. FedEx had one job and they failed epically. I will never use them again. And yes I smear their poor customer service practices all over every form of social media I have ties to. So done.

So, I ordered an expensive item with 1-Day-Shipping (FedEx Home Delivery with Saturday Delivery). The package left the factory 3 hours from my house the night before and ended up at the distribution center at 2AM this morning - leaving at 4AM. It was sorted and sent out. 12 hours later, it had not arrived at my local distribution center and ended up an a distribution center less than an HOUR away at 4PM. It sat on the truck for 12 HOURS and barely traveled an HOUR!! WHAT HAPPENED?! FedEx never notified me of any change and the tracking only changed at 8PM tonight!

    This is pure insanity! FedEx is completely irresponsible for not informing their customers of delays in a timely manner. Imagine if that delivery was time-sensitive and my business depended on it! I could NOT count on FedEx to follow through with their OWN schedule!

    This is the second or third time this has occurred. My package was scheduled for this Wednesday 05/29/19 but had a guaranteed delivery of Friday 05/31/19. I was promised the day before on Thursday (since it wasn’t delivered) it would be on Friday and again promised on Friday it would be delivered by 8pm. I was waiting for two hours outside before and after my apartment lobby closed for the day. The truck never came. At 7:08 I got an update from tracking saying the driver tried to deliver the package but no one was there to receive it. The truck driver LIED. I called in after receiving the notice and nobody would do anything about it. All I got was it will be delivered on MONDAY! They said there was no way to contact the driver. Again, they LIED to me. Every driver is equipped with the ability to receive a message. When asked to speak with a supervisor I got a customer advocate which did absolutely nothing.

    I’m so enraged, this is absolutely unacceptable. No accountability to the driver and apparently lying to customers is what they do and have no problem doing it. Other residences in this complex say they have been dealing with this forever. The evening driver never shows and says he/she does. On Monday the customer advocate said she would connect me with corporate which won’t help me at all. I had to miss a trip to New York this morning because I didn’t have the equipment I ordered. Runaround and lying to customers is what is the norm for this company because what is my other option? I already paid for my service. It was like dealing with a crappy Chinese company overseas where nothing gets done. There have been complaints filed for this truck driver apparently by residence but nothing gets done. IF YOU CARE ABOUT A TIMELY DELIVERY DO NOT USE FEDEX. So frustrating and annoying, not to mention disappointing.

    I have been ordering things online a lot more recently. I have not been receiving my large packages in a timely manner. Once it was a car seat and I had to stay home because I was supposed to receive 2 day shipping no signature required. The person who delivered stated no one was home to sign. I explained to her she could have left it at my rent office if she didn’t feel comfortable leaving the package at my door. The young lady cursed at me and said, "You won’t get your package messing with me." I was able to speak to someone at the center not the 800 number. Now today, I was supposed to receive a large package. I received a text stating the package was delivered at 11:15 am. I took off work to stay home to ensure I received the package. NO ONE knocked on the door.

    I did see a FedEx truck however they went to another building. I checked the rent office and I also checked the other side of my complex. I don’t understand why my package isn’t here. I would be really messed up if it was a life saving medication in that box and I had to abide by FedEx and waited 4 days and then contacted the sender to see if they will even consider replacing the product. You guys need to hold your drivers accountable because this is a public service and I appreciate it, however I don’t appreciate not being able to receive my purchased products. I officially know I have to find out who is delivering my products and if it is FedEx I will gladly pay more to have a different sender or order from a different company.

    So I received an email this morning saying I'm getting my package today and I have to be present to provide a signature while receiving the package. I had to miss work today and was staying at home the whole day until I received an email saying that they have made a delivery attempt but apparently there was no one at home.

    I am amazed that this thing could even happen. I'm guessing the driver just looked at the door to my apartment building, which is locked and decided, "Oh, so the door is locked that must mean the person is not home; and there is probably no need to call the number which is printed very clearly on the shipping label, because the door is locked."

    I contacted their customer service right away, and apparently there is no way that they can call their driver, a FedEx employee I assume, which is only a few minutes away, to drive back here. And my only option would be to ask for another day off tomorrow and wait for them to make another attempt, and hope that the driver tomorrow could have some common sense to call me first. Horrible, just horrible.

    I live in a building with 50 condos. FedEx and UPS have access codes to deliver to the units, which has worked for the 12 years I have owned my unit. About 6 weeks ago, things changed. I would get a notification that my package was delivered, but there would be no package. As I walked around the building, I would find all of the FedEx deliveries (for all people living here) in a pile on the 3rd floor (randomly by a wall) or piled in front of the mailboxes in the parking garage (not a secure area).

    I called after the 2nd incident and was told that FedEx was contracting out their delivery services. But the person did reach out to that delivery company and got them to agree to stop doing that. Evidently, the driver was not happy about that, since the deliveries would be thrown against the door when I was home. Today, I got the text that a delivery attempt was made and would be attempted tomorrow. The items are refrigerated (Sun Basket) so that won’t work. Beside that point is the fact that my account allows for the items to be left in front of my door. I was home... Nobody came to my door. No door tag was left, either.

    When I called FedEx customer service, I spoke to a defensive representative that gave a litany of excuses and acted like I was being unreasonable (I never got upset or raised my voice). He said that he would TRY to see if they would re-attempt, but he couldn’t guarantee that. When I asked if he could let me know one way or the other (as in... CAN they come? Or not? Because the items will be ruined). He said that they don’t provide that service - I would just have to wait to see if they come back. When I called Sun Basket, the Rep tried to switch carriers but was told they are exclusively using FedEx. Her delivery supervisor told her that FedEx was having to contract out delivery services because they had over-booked PTO and were nearing the end of their fiscal year. He said they hoped it would improve in July. I cancelled my Sun Basket service at that time. And I will no longer use FedEx.

    Ordered wine from a well known vineyard in California. Received a shipping confirmation notice and tracking number from FedEx the day the package was picked up by FedEx and an email with a delivery date of 5/16/2019. This is important because the package needed to be signed for in order to be delivered. Using the FedEx website we tracked the package to the local FedEx facility in Londonderry NH where it arrived on 5/16/2019 at 4:50am. According to the FedEx website it was put on a "FedEx vehicle for delivery" at 4:56am on 5/16/2019, and would be delivered by 8:00pm that evening according to the delivery notice we received from FedEx.

    After waiting all day for the delivery NOTHING ARRIVED! Additionally there was no updated information received from FedEx as to where the package was and why it was not delivered. On 5/17/2019 we placed multiple calls to FedEx and the vineyard to try to find out where the package was and when it would be delivered, however, despite the fact the FedEx website showed the package was again placed on a FedEx vehicle for delivery no one at FedEx could tell us where the package was or when it would be delivered. During one call a FedEx representative told us "when packages are delivered is up to the driver", there is no guarantee as to what date a package will arrive despite what FedEx has falsely led consumers to believe!

    Furthermore given the three calls we made directly to FedEx customer service, and the calls the vineyard made to their FedEx representative, all resulted in different stories as to what happened, either we were purposely deceived as to the reason we could not find out the status of delivery or FedEx's own systems of tracking and monitoring packages is simply non-existent or woefully inadequate for a reputable logistics business. Consumers need to be aware you are at the mercy of FedEx when expecting packages and that the FedEx tracking systems are not accurate or adequate to guarantee delivery.

This has happened before and they take the package to their facility 30 minutes away, which I then have to take off work AGAIN to get there before they close. Thanks Fedex. UPS is fantastic and I literally never have these issues with them.

    We live in an underdeveloped (narrow dirt road) gated community (3 houses). One of the FedEx drivers drove a semi tractor-trailer through our security gate to make a delivery at one of the homes. After making the delivery the truck returned to the security gate to exit the property. Evidently, while the truck was waiting to drive onto the main road the gate began to close. The gate closed on the trailer; the truck continued to move forward, the gate was pulled off the hinges and bent in areas.

    The road is not designed to carry the weight or size of a tractor-trailer. A call was made to the local FedEx with the information. The information was forwarded to an external vendor to handle the issue. The adjuster requested two quotes to have the gate repaired. After sending the quotes we called the adjuster several times with no response. In order to receive a callback, it was necessary to call the corporate office of FedEx to receive a response from the adjuster. The response was the claim had been denied. It is unclear why the adjuster would request a couple of estimates if the claim was going to be denied. This took over five months for anyone to respond to our calls and email. In an attempt to receive an appropriate response I called FedEx corporate line. They suggested getting a lawyer as there was nothing FedEx could do to resolve the issue.

    My suggestion is not to use FedEx in the future due to lack of response to issues of poor judgment. Basically, the customer is at the mercy of the driver's ability to make decisions. In the past, I had confidence in the FedEx drivers. Now I realize you are lucky if you always have an experienced driver. Because you have no guarantee you will receive good service.

    I've lived in the same place for 14 years now, other than two exceptions, there has always been an issue with FedEx home delivery for me. The latest issue is just so far out there I have to say something. I originally had a package scheduled for delivery on Friday (5-10-19), but it ended up being delayed until today (5-13-19). It's been cloudy/drizzling on and off. Nothing serious. Yet my package has been delayed again because of a weather exception because it's drizzling lightly. Really?

    I run an online store as side income and personally made my way out to get four packages shipped for customers, other than it not being BBQ weather the roads are perfectly fine for driving a delivery route or whatever business you need to conduct. Really poor service, I absolutely hate it when a store doesn't offer options other than FedEx because I'd seriously never use them if given the choice. USPS, DHL, UPS, Amazon all do a better job delivering to my house. I'd rather take any of those as an option even if I had to pay extra over dealing with FedEx. 14 years and FedEx is still just the same. It's a wonder to me how they keep business since the internet is flooded with people experiencing the same issues.

    We live on a driveway that has three clearly marked homes. UPS has no issuing finding our home and delivering packages on a regular basis. FedEx drivers, on the other hand, have been absolutely awful. They’ve claimed to have “delivered” packages while we were home and could verify a truck never came up our driveway and on instances where our doorbell camera verifies that no one approached the house. When we’ve called to try to locate our packages we’ve been told there’s nothing they can do because the driver left them at the front door. Their recommendation has been to contact the shipper and file a claim. However, that doesn’t solve the problem, which is that their driver is leaving our packages at someone else’s home. We’ve asked for a manager’s contact information at the local shipping hub where this driver works, but have been told that’s “not how it works.” We’re stumped!

    My order that I paid for online has not been delivered to me and was shipped out on 05/05/2019. I was supposed to receive it on 05/09/2019 before 10:30am. I was tracking my order the whole time but it then all of a sudden got to the main Tennessee hub and it stopped there not moving and says no set schedule for delivery available. So I am very upset because I need this item for my wedding on May 16 which is just three days from now. I sent an email to them today to figure out what was going on with the package. I then receive an automated email that my response is being sent to the appropriate person for the job but still no real answer on who this person is so that I know who would be my contact in terms of this matter. If I don't receive the package then my only option is to dispute the payment I made for the item with my bank which is ridiculous because I need it for the wedding.

    3 packages were delivered different times. If you are on vacation they will hold for 5 days. Will not give to any one other. You will have to specially stop at walgreens extra time from your day. Package went back to sender with ck inside-inconvenience for both vendor and customer. 2nd package I had directed to walgeens as we were on vacation-forgot drivers license. Tried to show her passport on mobile passport. Would not take it. Also she wanted tracking no, etc such a nuisance. If Fedex does not rectify this procedure to WALGEENS, UPS WILL TAKE OVER THERE BUSINESS. They should attempt to deliver, if not people dont have time to keep going to Walgreens to collect packages in todays world when vendors are providing deliver services home. VERY VERY POOR.

    I shipped a package via FedEx only a 5 mile shipping distance. It was a mother's day gift which tracking shows was picked up by F/E on 5/2 and taken to the Moon Township sorting facility in Pgh. Package has since been lost; not delivered. I was advised by rep on the phone to "purchase another gift"! Inside the box was an addressed mother's day card with the exact same shipping address, so if they opened the boxes that lost labels how hard could this be?? I trusted FedEx over mail delivery for the sole purpose of not losing my package and I am very disappointed. I will never recommend their service or use them again. UPS for me!

    Received a delivery via FED EX on 1-16-19. I have a gated entry with a call box on a pedestal. Not only did the driver not use the call box to let me know he was there, but the next day I notice my call box leaning, so I get out to look at it, barely touch it and it falls over. Has a big white mark on the black box. I call FEDEX, they tell me it is a new driver and that a rep from their claims department will contact me.

    After 2 months of back and forth, they say they are not paying the claim because I can't prove FEDEX did the damage. I live on a small back-country road, very low traffic. In the 20 years I have lived here, my gate has been damaged twice, this one and once before, yes, by a FEDEX driver, that one honest though, and FEDEX paid the claim. BEWARE, they must not train their drivers, or pursue an honest resolution! They know he did the damage, but since I don't have a camera to record every movement, I'm out the $650 replacement cost! FEDEX is a non-customer-service oriented company, thus profit only matters!

    I paid extra for a gift to be delivered one day before Mother’s Day! Well what is upsetting the driver has a AFB “”Air Force Base“” residence. Ok think about this. There’s a security guard at the gate - You have to show ID. Not A Problem!! If there was a problem why wouldn’t the driver go that extra mile & call the number. I put down instead he or she sent the package back to the local FedEx facility so now my daughter in law won’t get her gift on Mothers Day!

    I purchased a new phone online and had it expedited in order to receive it quicker as I needed it a quickly as possible. The delivery date and tracking info was given and stated it should be there in 2 days. Status showed it was scheduled to be delivered by 8:00 PM but it was delivered way earlier than expected at around 9:30 AM. My ** was home all day that day and they supposedly made the delivery at 9:30 AM according to the status page on FedEx's website. When I go to see if it was dropped off or in the mail, it's not. Checking the status again, it states that the package is being returned back to the seller and is in Transit. Not only was I up at that time but so was my Mom and older brother who claim they didn't hear the doorbell ring or any knocking on the door itself.

    I called FedEx customer service and they don't have an answer as to why its being sent back and why its not deliverable. They can't even keep it at a post office for me to come and pick it up. No answers, not helpful, and very difficult to get information in general. I eventually had to get a refund from the seller due to FedEx's idiotic moves. I have no idea how FedEx is still in business with such a lame system they have. And this is not the first time this has happened. Very disappointed in FedEx and their delivery system!

    I really never used FedEx because many companies that I buy things online from simply do not use FedEx. Well, this is really my first experience with FedEx and it was just simply terrible. FedEx gave me an option to make an account so that I would be able to get updates to my phone so when my package would arrive. Well unannounced to me is that I have to wait 3-5 days for a confirmation code to be MAILED to my house so that I can complete my ONLINE account. Now when I check to see where my package is it says that according to FedEx package tracking my order no longer exists which is very concerning to anyone who checks where their packages are. As of this review, I have not had any updates with my package.

    Oh yeah don't even get me started with FedEx absolutely useless virtual "assistant". Think at first I would be able to get a real person to help me. I was given the most basic robot response I could have gotten, of course the response to the question of where my package was is in fact responded to by a computer who just gave the worst answer possible to the question of why my package was not showing up on FedEx's tracking. I am more upset above all else right now because I was fooled by FedEx to thinking my product would be safely shipped to my home and now it seems as if FedEx has lost something that I ordered that is quite expensive. So believe me when you can AVOID FEDEX AT ALL COSTS!!

    I needed to create a FedEx account because I lost my wallet on an airline and needed it shipped back to me. The airline attendant and I went through my options and chose overnight delivery. It was rather costly but at least I was going to have my wallet back the next day. Except that isn't what happened. It was a Friday. I had it shipped and the attendant did not notice that overnight had a plethora of choices going along with it, including choosing if you wanted Saturday delivery.

    Apparently you can pay for overnight, but if you want that overnight to be on a Saturday, you pay even more. There was nothing online that told me that. It simply said 'Overnight delivery'. But they went and created several loopholes to burn you out of your money. Their customer service over the situation was a laughable joke. The woman that spoke to me, Beverly, spent the entire time telling me where I was wrong and that the attendant made a mistake. Of course, how was she to know FedEx was in the business of legally ripping people off. I cancelled my account and will never do business with them again. I urge others to do the same.

    FedEx can never seem to deliver to my apartment complex, and I have had no issues with this with other shipping companies. As an alternative, I have to pick up my packages at my local FedEx store, and every time I’ve gone to pick up, the workers have the WORST customer service. No one greets me, despite the helpdesk being 5 feet away from the entrance; and if there’s a customer with a long order/task, I’m not informed of how long my wait may be, I’m simply ignored. There are two people at this store and I understand that a rush can be overwhelming, but both people don’t need to be working on one customer especially when the customers behind them have relatively quick tasks (ie dropping off a pre-process package, picking up business cards, picking up packages, etc).

    I ended up waiting 20 minutes to pick up a small package because the customer before me was arguing about the fact that the store ran out of bubble wrap and that there will be liability issues if the employees were to sell said customer bubble wrap from the back. When I was finally granted attention, the employee asked for my name. I responded with my first name only and they looked at me confused, and proceeded to say “(my first name) is that your whole name?”, granted it was a simple misunderstanding, BUT I LITERALLY POINTED MY ID TO THE EMPLOYEE WHEN THEY ASKED ME MY NAME, they could’ve looked or even borrowed my ID so they can go find my package. Anyways, I’m pretty flippin FedUP with FedEx. :)

    I shipped a firearm to Buds Gun Shop for a trade. FedEx stated their policy requires firearms to be shipped next day air, on a 6lb package from Iowa to Kentucky. That was $70 after fees and taxes. Instead of paying $70, I went to a smaller FedEx store which was only capable of shipping 2 day and the policy magically changed along with the price, it was just over $32 to ship it 2 day shipping. Buds, a high volume dealer, was able to send the firearm trade back to me via FedEx ground service and the rep stated it was $7 for shipping fully insured. FedEx claims their next day air requirement is both law and company policy.... I say they're just out to screw the little guy. I've learned my lesson FedEx, you have my $32 but you'll never see my business again. I hope others can learn from my mistake.

    We have a small home-based business requiring faithful mailing and receipt of small packages. Our distributors normally use UPS and we've never had a problem with this service. But every time a company mails us a document via FedEx with a required signature, we fail to get the document/package or get it very late. Every. Time.

    Yesterday FedEx tried to deliver a package at our house. One of us stayed home the entire day to receive the package. There was a commotion behind our house that required us to step out of our home for fifteen minutes. Of course, that's when FedEx tried to make their delivery. Calling FedEx, we arranged for them to deliver the time-sensitive package the following business day (today). We set up notifications on our phone so we would be certain to get the package that we absolutely need by end of business today.

    FedEx SMS-notified us that our package was ready to be picked up. We left work, drove to the business we'd chosen & FedEx agreed to deliver the package too... only to learn nothing was there. After waiting on hold more than 20 minutes to speak with a FedEx rep, we learned someone had "coded" our online delivery choice wrong and the package was being held for us at a FedEx regional office nearly TWO HOURS AWAY. And that the best FedEx can do is deliver the package to the correct business pick-up location MONDAY. So we've missed our deadline. Whenever a business lets us know they're sending a critical package via FedEx, we cringe. Because we're already anticipating yet another problem getting the package.

I called them again today and talked to another foreigner and asked him where he was located and after telling me he could not tell me he finally said he was in Tennessee and I asked him if he knew where West Virginia was and he said it was on the west side of the country. You can't make this sort of thing up. If I had my way they would be out of business. I have nothing but bad experiences with Fedex.
