    Ordered pizzas which were to be delivered 2-3 days before Christmas. They were delivered on Christmas Eve, no longer frozen. FedEx had called in the morning to confirm delivery and were instructed to cancel delivery since the item was no longer edible. They delivered it anyway.

    I have received several packages via FedEx and each package has been delivered torn, smashed or destroyed. Most of the time it’s just left on my front porch and before I can get to the door the driver is gone. I attempted to contact FedEx corporate office to complain and I also contact the company that I made the purchases from. Each time I was told they would do an investigation and the company that I purchased from refunded my shipping and handling. Bottom line FedEx is not worth using.

    FedEx shipping has grown worse over the years. What used to take 2 to 3 days, now takes 7 to 10. The hubs they use takes products out of route and puts delays on shipping. If you live in Las Vegas, and order out of California, it very well might go to Arizona before getting to Vegas, that's insane. I don't recommend ANYONE using Fedex, unless you really like slow delivery.

    It never fails, when I have issues with this carrier nothing is truly ever done. I asked for a manager to call because they left a package in the rain when I have covered areas all around my house. So the box was totally wet and the items were very nice expensive pillows. They never knocked on door and left package outside of carport, nowhere near any of my doors and lied on ticket stating I signed for it when I never did. They didn’t even know that they delivered the package because in the system it showed package was delayed and never followed up when I called them.

    Not happy with this service at all and they cover up their mistakes in the system by being totally untruthful. They Closed the ticket 2 weeks after the package was delivered and said I received it on a date that was not even the true date. I Left messages again and never received a callback from manager. I feel my business was not important to them at all. What can You do at that point, but move on.

    I had a document sent via FedEx and came home to find it sitting on top of my trash can (the porch is 50 steps or less from the trash can). No, this is not the exception as it happens most times in my area. Does FedEx want to know how to prevent package thefts? Simple. Start re-training your drivers how to properly deliver parcels, envelopes etc. Not on top of trash cans, on driveways etc. To online retailers: Looking who the shipper is plays a large role in whether I buy from you or not.

    It is very deceptive when you see a FedEx truck drive up and it boldly and clearly states FEDEX on the truck, and somewhere else on the truck in very small letters it lists the subcontractor's name. I only found out about the subcontractors when I had an issue with a driver who refuses to deliver according to my FedEx account instructions. When I called FedEx to complain that heavy and expensive packages were left in the elements in a location that I could not retrieve, I was informed that FedEx now subcontracts out all ground packages. FedEx customer support tried on 3 occasions to reach the subcontractor's supervisor on a Saturday to no avail.

    When I tried to look up the subcontractor's business information on the web, they were not really listed meaning that there was no solid business address, owner or phone number. It was very vague. UNSAFE! FedEx also could not reach the business! I, the customer was left to deal with a very rude, unprofessional driver of a company that I have never heard of before. FedEx did submit a complaint for me and that is still open. The issue with subcontractors is you really don't know who is showing up on your property, FedEx does not know who is showing up at your property, and because subcontracting goes to usually the lowest bidder, quality is no longer a priority.

    Here at the Fresno Veterans Home where I live, the Clovis FEDEX does "deliveries." Only if it's Saturday, or Friday or even Thursday afternoon, the driver does not deliver to the front desk as they are supposed to, but does a "Delivery Exception" saying we were closed or that the parcel was actually delivered "with signature." This is infuriating since I used to do deliveries in the SF Bay Area where it was hard to get home before 7 or 8 pm, due to deliveries. FEDEX lies and does its customers WRONG. I call and get no assurances, only lame apologies. FEDEX SOX!

    FedEx is not at all careful about the address where they leave packages. We had a package worth around $200 that we were waiting on. The tracking info said it was delivered to our address, but I work from home, and was certain it was not delivered. Turns out they delivered the package to a home that wasn't even on our street. The family was on vacation and brought our package to us several days later. We had already contacted the company from which we purchased the items, and they had sent out a replacement. There have been numerous times when FedEx leaves our packages right in front of the garage, rather than at the front door - only a few feet away! By placing boxes in front of the garage, they can be run over. Lazy, lazy, lazy.

    Package requiring signature was supposed to be delivered on 1/24. Tracking # confirmed it was out for delivery. But it wasn't delivered due to "local weather delay". There was NO bad weather. It was sunny and roads were clean and dry - lie. So now it was supposed to be delivered 1/25 but wasn't for same reason, weather - another lie. It was again sunny. So who knows when I'll get this. A delivery before this one went through 5 of these cycles before it was delivered. We're close to the end of the route and the driver just knocks off when he/she feels like it. Same, the next day and on and on. The inmates are running the asylum at the local FedEx depot. It's sub-contracted out to low bidder and the results show.

This has happened everyday since. It shows in the morning that delivery is expected that day but upon checking after 12pm it goes to delayed. I live 50 miles from this FedEx location and there has been NO weather related events that would cause them not to be able to move their vehicles.

    I ordered 2 products from the same company which were shipped separately via FedEx. The first arrived with no problem; my husband was shoveling snow & was handed the package. The second product was delayed by heavy snowfall; certainly understandable. The package was to have been delivered the following day. We watched the tracking & discovered at about 4 PM that the package had supposedly been delivered, left at the front door, an hour prior. We checked & there was no package.

    We called FedEx & were told they would check on it, but we should call our neighbors to see if any of them had the package. If we didn’t hear anything by Jan. 28, we should contact the merchant. We called all the neighbors & learned the FedEx truck had been in the neighborhood. It turned out the package had been delivered not to our front door, but to the mailbox across the street. No effort was made to deliver at the door: we were home. I’m really dismayed that when I pay for shipping & FedEx misdelivers, it becomes my problem to resolve the issue. What do I pay for? Not only that, they weren’t honest about where they left the package. Perhaps they should get signatures for all deliveries.

    I live in a rural home and have had trouble get proper delivery from FedEx for years now. The most recent example, they brought a modest sized package and since our 1700 foot driveway was not plowed, they left the package near our gate (which was open and almost always is) and never notified us until we got a confirmation email. We checked around the garage and no package, went on chat and found out it had been left by the gate. So 3-4 hours after delivery we found out where it was only it wasn't. Apparently someone and we do not think either of our 2 neighbors have the package either. I guess someone now has a computer roller bag and I do not. Sam's Club has shipped another and hopefully they will call me when they drop it at the gate so I can immediately go down and pick it up.

    Another simple example, it was raining and they, apparently, did not want to walk up to my door so they dropped it by the garage where it sat for about 24 hours getting soaked and thoroughly damaged and had to be replaced. Have never had a problem with UPS and they will go our of their way to get the package delivered or at least protected from the weather.

When I passed the bubble wrap to the main box it crushed on all four corners of the box and there a dent/bend in the middle of the 4 foot back. I didn't bother opening the package completely.

And they're customer service and zero help, when I opened an investigation I was told to go ahead and contact the shipper to get the process to resend it started, so that tells me they really weren't going to look for my package.

    And look, I get it, packages get lost but FedEx should take responsibility for their lost of packages, rather than blaming the customer or the shipper. They're the ones who are failing in their duty. And, frankly, I don't even know if they're actually even trying to deliver my package. USP and USPS deliver my packages and knock on my door, but FedEx has never. I'm a housewife, so if they came to my door and knocked and left the package as they're /supposed to/ I would know.

    This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. They actually blame the customers for their own mistakes. The only explanation I can think of is that they are a bunch of sadistic sociopaths that literally entertain themselves by jacking with their customers. I was supposed to have something delivered today. So I planned on it. Yesterday, MLK - I was out and guess what. There was a delivery attempt. No warning, the updates on tracking kept saying the next day. So I get the famous screw you sticker on my door. Imagine my excitement. So, wanting to make sure I have some element of control as to when the next attempt would be, I paid to have the window for today from 5 to 8 pm. So I leave work early, come home and plant myself by the door for three straight hours only to find out the package will be delivered tomorrow between 5 and 8 pm.

    And then there's the phone call to customer service where the outsourced recipient actually blames me. As if I knew that paying to have it delivered between 5 and 8 would actually take 24 hours to take effect. And, the punch line - I get status updates all day telling me that the package is on its way for delivery today. The guy was literally driving around all day with the package in the truck only to be sourced for tomorrow. I am finished with this company. I will do everything I can when I make purchases to ensure that UPS or the USPS delivers the package and if the company does not use them, I will take my business elsewhere. If enough people begin to change their behaviors, it will take effect. Stand up against inconsiderate corporations and take back our status as customers are to be treated importantly.

    Within the last year my distribution company switched from UPS to FedEx, and I think it was the biggest mistake of their life. FedEx account manager lets you change where you want the driver to leave your package ie; front door, side door, patio, etc. I receive a shipment every week, and have yet to get my package dropped off at the correct spot. I've called customer service every single time, and they keep telling me the same thing, that they will talk to the local distribution center and it will get resolved. Well it's been several months now and it still has not changed. UPS however, can seem to get it right every single time without issue, and when you have a complaint they can transfer you to the local office. FedEx refuses to let you speak with anyone local, everything is done over their 1-800 customer service number.

    The only remedies they can give me are the same ones they tell me every single time 1. "We will call the local center and let them know," 2. It must be an IT issue. Well I've talked to IT and everything is fine on their end, and they call the local people every single time, but no one can offer me any proof of what was actually discussed on these supposed calls. All you can do is take their word that they did something, and obviously their word is worthless since nothing has changed. And they refuse to do anything else other than that. They really do not care about the recipient since it's the shipper that pays them and the recipient often has no choice in the method of delivery. I would never ever use FedEx if I had a choice.

Here is the charge: **. We didn't get a call from our sales rep, no email, no letter...just invoice after invoice of fees. Of course during the busiest shipping time of year. FEDEX just lost our business for good. Shipper beware... Here is a list of fees they charge...because they are money sucking thieves.

    There is a serious lack of accountability at the highest level for repeated delays in delivery on the basis of frivolous excuses and damaged packages. By far the worst carrier in my experience. An example: despite having the same address for over 5 years, and multiple deliveries to my address during that time, deliveries are delayed or not made because Fed Ex claims they cannot find the property! The management failed and refused to do anything about the repeated failures.

    Ring the doorbell. Package theft is a real problem and FedEx is facilitating the theft by not taking a second and ringing the doorbell. It is not done even when the driver is standing at the bell and all it would take is to lift the arm. This problem is especially prevalent with company drivers less so with contract drivers. They may or may not ring it.

    The biggest problem is not always being able to sign for a package. A pair of diamond earrings just went back to the sender because the driver didn’t care. Upset! It would have been easier to have any officemate sign and simply leave the package.

I have paid the bill because I'm highly stress and FedEx is having an impact on my mental health. I still don’t know what I have paid for. Looking into this this is happening to many people.

On Facebook they would respond but give you a script answer for a reply and then not say anything else just to get you off of their page.

    Lately though everyone I’ve been ordering through has gone through them, and to be honest I almost stopped ordering my favorite products because I saw they were the carrier, but they were started to get things done! I don’t know if someone cleaned house and got rid of the garbage or if they just decided they were tired of everyone calling them garbage but they stepped up their game and I’m quite happy to see them delivering my stuff. I pay for 3 day shipping, I get my stuff the next day. I really hope they keep up the good work.

Getting there On-Time, reliably without damage and as instructed is our measure of quality and FedEx has performed flawlessly. Over the years, other firms have approached us, but their pricing was no better and oftentimes their overall presence (drop off locations) didn't fit our high demand, often-rush-order needs.

    FedEx offered a incentive discount on new account. We decided to used their 45% Discount offer. They have created a account. On the second shipment the invoice was received.

They have told us to contact the store we purchase the item and have them to reverse the charge hoping this would be adjusted.

    The store location wouldn't help us because they don't deal with FedEx. After 2 months of trying we have filed with BBB hoping to resolve the overcharge issue. I was told by our company to used other service that can resolve simple issues. My conclusion is if I would have received the COD invoice on arrival for $3300, I would have told them to discard or return the item. The purchase price of the item for $800. Would have been a better lost. And after contacting the store we purchase the item, they explain they would have shipped the item 4x cheaper. What should I do. It doesn't make sense?

    If they can't find your street, they just decide to not deliver the package. They walk across your lawn, and they toss your packages. They suck, and don't care at all. I've been on the phone with them multiple times, and while the customer care seems okay, the delivery people suck.

    FedEx continues to deliver my packages to my old address even though the shipper had my correct new address. Because Fedex’s maps and routing are outdated, they cannot find my new address so they continue to drop the packages to my old address. Unfortunately I do not have the option of selecting who my shipper should use for shipping so I continue to suffer with this issue.

    FedEx is the worst experience me and my husband had to go through. We shipped a package to our home address from our work address. We are the sender and the receiver. Well, we kept tracking the package that said in transit/then damaged/then returned to the sender/then no one seemed to know anything. We have been on calls for weeks and customer service was terrible, they always gave us wrong info and confused us so much. In the end we filed a claim that was denied saying: “we investigated and found that the shipment was returned to the shipper.” Lol. It was never returned to our work address! Anyways, we then called the Cargo Claims and again a waste of time as they can’t really help... It’s frustrating that FedEx charges people a fortune but has such a poor customer service! NEVER AGAIN using FEDEX! You are a Mafia that steals from people. What comes around goes around!

    I sent a packet for India from Edison New Jersey through FedEx, the place which I am sending the packet is not in the range of FedEx office, so they are delivering through 3rd party agent. The packet was not delivered in time, and I called technical support every day, and they are lying me and trying to make fool. The packet was stuck at 3rd party agent, I asked the technical support to give the details of the place where the packet was stuck, so we can pick it up from the respective location, it will be easy for us because it contains important papers that we need to submit to someplace, but the technical support is saying that they don't have any information about 3rd party agent.

    I don't know how they are doing business without the information of 3rd party agent. They are explaining silly reasons to me and sometimes they are saying that it is not cleared by the customs, I don't know how it went to 3rd party agent without clearing customs. Every time they are playing with me with different answers. I suggest them to stop their business if they can't do their work properly. Finally, papers were not delivered at the right time and lost a lot of money because of them. Technical support was the really bad experience in my life.

I have been given free express shipping with several dependable companies and FedEx has always ensured that my package is delivered extremely late.

    While on vacation, I sent items home using FedEx. I didn't want to carry my items back home on the plane so I decided to sent them ahead. I went into an Office Depot and shipped my item by FedEx. Because the Christmas season is the worst time for Porch Pirates I requested to have the package signed for so it wouldn't just be left at the door. I had to pay extra for the signature confirmation. Somebody would be there to accept it. The day before delivery I received a text message stating that a legal age adult needed to be present to sign for the item. On the day of delivery I ran the tracking number and was upset to find that I had signed for my package. The driver left the item at the front door and signed my name and left. Funny thing was that I was still on the other side of the country on vacation. The person at home should have signed for it. There was somebody there. I called them and they went outside and retrieved the box.

    So my experience with FedEx is that I paid for a service that I didn't receive (fraud) and my name was forged. But the fun doesn't end there! Trying to make a complaint to a supervisor turned into a real joke. I was disconnected, left on hold for a long time, given the runaround, Etc. Etc. Next I wanted my money back for the service that were not rendered! I was given the runaround here also. They were happy to take the claim information over the phone, but I was told that since I sent it from Office Depot that I would need to return there to get a refund. Well as you guessed they are not going to return funds for a FedEx screw up. So I began to do some research. There is really no agency that oversees their activities or enforces any type of regulations on them. The consumer is not protected using FedEx or UPS. When you pay money it is a gamble. If your package is insured both companies have an almost 90% claim denial rate for claims.

    If you have stuck this long through my complaint, the only advice I can give is to use the USPS only because they have oversight. Do your own research. The internet is full of video of both company's drivers abusing packages and also full of complaints about poor customer service, denial of claims, Etc. If you value your shipping USE USPS only because they have accountability.
