    Reason for review: failure to deliver in a timely fashion despite being paid for a service. I ordered 4 packages which were to be delivered via FedEx overnight. I paid over $200 for shipping for a total of ~$5,000 in merchandise. The following day, 3 out of 4 packages arrived. No phone call/e-mail (which I requested) once the merchandise arrived. I asked that it be delivered to the management office of my complex with a required signature... nope! They drop it off at my front door when I'm not home, no signature. $4,500 of supplies, left on my doorstep. Luckily, my management office was amazing enough to go get it and bring it to the office until I got home. That was fail #1.

    As for the missing package (fail #2) - I follow up the evening of anticipated delivery and FedEx tells me it will still be there by 8pm as they are "delayed". Long story short, it never made it. At that point, they promise next day delivery (Saturday) because it had arrived at Massachusetts and they'd be driving it to Rhode Island tomorrow morning. They said they'd call me when the truck was en route. Never called. I follow up with them by 10am the next day- they said the truck left 8:28 am and they'd call me as soon as it arrives at the shipment building. I call at noon, then again at 2pm - no one knows where the truck went. It's then 4pm and no follow up (the FedEx in RI closes at 5pm). I call back, and I find out the truck never left Mass. They are going to deliver it Monday now.

    No apology, no excuse as to why they can't communicate properly, no follow up throughout this entire process until I initiate the phone calls. This company needs to be seriously revamped because it has no accountability for its actions. They know they can always say "contact your shipper" if something goes wrong. In my profession if you don't do your job efficiently, people die. In the FedEx world, they can completely fail at life and still keep their jobs with no reprimand. The irony truly makes me shake my head in disgust.

    First, I used a pseudo address to complete this survey as I shouldn't have to sacrifice my privacy to share my experience. Waited 5 days for shipment from Fedex, checked the front door repeatedly on the day delivery was expected (from tracking details/updates). Suddenly, I refresh the tracking and it says package delivered, but there was no package delivered to my home. Fedex has 3 different people call me to verify my address - it was correct from beginning - and ask for physical description of my home. It's house. They all look similar. The street number is clearly printed on uniform black iron mailbox. There's no way to miss my home/address. MAJOR FAIL. Never have issues like this with UPS! Thankfully, most businesses use UPS over FedEx, so it'll be a year or more before it happens again!

    With reference to Tracking **, the product was dispatched from Pune on September 19, 2016 and delivered in the Parel, Mumbai office in India on September 20, 2016. After several follow ups, I didn't get any response and on September 23, 2016 afternoon I decided to go personally to collect the courier. I was shocked by the rude behaviour of Mr. ** and Gabrie on stating that we are not responsible on updating the status as well as delivery due to internal problems. This was an classic example of irresponsible behaviour and pathetic service by FEDEX organization because of internal issues. Highly recommend not to use FedEx courier service.

    I ordered my new phone and FedEx tried to deliver the package to me while I was at work. When I got home I got the door tag that said they could not deliver it. I tried to reroute online, but the system would not allow me to do so. So I called FedEx. They told me the package was scheduled to be delivered the next day at 11 AM. I told them that I would not be there because I worked during the day and that they should not come at that time. The customer service representative called the station and got back to me to say that the package would be delivered the next day at 5 pm. I received a call later that day and FedEx left a voice message that there were no drivers left to redeliver, which was not what the note was supposed to be. So the next day, despite their assurances during my call that the package would be delivered after 5 PM, the tried to deliver the package again at 11 AM, for which I was not there because I was at work, just as I said I was.

    So I called FedEx back and explained the situation that the package was supposed to be delivered after 5 PM. Once again they called the station, and got back to me saying that the station understood the situation and would in fact deliver the package after 5 PM. After I left work early and made it home by 4 PM and waited for 2.5 hours for FedEx, I checked the tracking to discover that they tried to redeliver at 1:33 PM, which again is not after 5 PM. Once again I called customer service and they informed me that they could not help me and that all they could do was deliver on Monday at 11 AM while I was at work. I ask to speak to a Manager and they passed me off to a customer advocate who told me that FedEx could not deliver after 5 PM and that I was "misinformed".

    Despite my repeated recounts of the events to the FedEx customer advocate she refused to provide any service. Her only statement was FedEx does not have drivers this late and that they could not do anything for me but deliver at 11 AM on Monday, when I was at work, or put it on hold at a facility that was an hour drive from me and I am sick and told them so. They would prefer customers who are sick drive a hour to pick up a package and expose their personnel than to attempt any type of satisfactory resolution. FedEx completely failed to adhere to their commitments to me on the phone, failed to attempt any resolution for me as a customer and was dismissive and unhelpful. My company spends a huge amount of money with FedEx every year and I am exceedingly disappointed in FedEx's integrity in such that they lack integrity.

    The vendor I purchased from shipped via FedEx Smartpost on September 14th. FedEx has now informed me it will arrive September 26th. FedEx advertises Smartpost as taking 2-7 days. Simple arithmetic tells me that this shipment will take 12 days after the date of shipment. This is hardly 2-7 days. It took 6 days to get from origin at New Hampshire to my nearest hub in Sacramento. It sat at FedEx for 2 days until they turned it over to USPS. Now it will take USPS 4 more days to get it the final 32 miles to my house. I thought 7 days was bad but it was all my vendor offered. 7 became 12 and I am without a critical resource even longer. Smart?

    I was expecting a mattress to arrive sometime the next day so I called to see if I could get some kind of time general time frame. Agent arranged it so that they would call me before delivery. No phone call. Missed the delivery while I was at work. Second call, Agent arranges that I get it shipped via evening delivery the next night. No call. No delivery.

    Now it's 6:45 so I call and check. Agent tells me that they scanned the wrong address and so the delivery went to the wrong address!!! No call or email to tell me this. Agent then tells me that I can pick it up at one of their locations!! I don't own a car and am by myself! Agent doesn't offer me a third attempt at delivery!! I had to remind him that I have another attempt as by FedEx's policy!! No manager to help resolve this!! Same talk-off and not a single care about the merchandise that they are responsible for!! No accountability. No resolution!! Nothing.

    They misinformed, and mishandled merchandise. And they lied about having the wrong address since they already made a first delivery attempt. I am currently waiting for a 24 hour request hold before they can tell me when I need to pick my mattress up!!! Isn't misinformation a legal gray area? How can we hold a business accountable? False advertising to boot? No offer of a 3rd delivery attempt until I mentioned it?? No one wanted to help me.

    I have received two packages from allposters.com. Both of them were damaged and there was a tear in one of the boxes. Also there is creases in the posters. It even says "fragile" on the box. Something really needs to be done about the incompetence of the people that puts the packages in the truck.

    On 09/20/2016 I waited all day for a package to be delivered. Around 5:15 pm I noticed a FedEx truck fly by my residence, so I figured he would come back with my package which was said to be on the truck, out for delivery. The truck never came back. I checked the tracking again and it was indicated the package had been delivered at 2:00 PM. Left at front door. There was no package left at my residence, the truck did not stop. I made a call to FedEx to make a complaint and to see if they could contact the driver and have him backtrack. They stated that the driver then said that he slid the package under my front door. Which is impossible to do.

    I subscribed to the Blue Apron box meal service. They ship via FedEx ONLY and Friday is my delivery day. I live at the end of the FedEx route. This has been a problem since boxes containing perishable food rides around on a truck from before daybreak until as late as 7:45. And this is in the Alabama heat. I am easy to find since I live on a numbered street that is well marked. And I am the only house in my 9-digit zip code and the only house on my street. The problems come in when the drivers near the end of the day and it is raining, or cold, or hot, or whatever and they will just skip me and deliver on the next business day. The drivers openly tell me that they do this --- because FedEx keeps adding more deliveries without more time.

    On Friday, 1/16/16 I was due a package. I was careful to be available so I would get it refrigerated quickly. By 8 PM, the box had not arrived. So I pulled up FedEx tracking and it had a delivery record showing it was delivered at 7:45 PM. I called FedEx and was told that it had been delivered, but as we were talking an additional entry was made saying that delivery was pending. The FedEx guy said that "no problem" that they would deliver it on Monday. I questioned why it was marked "delivered" when it obviously was not. The FedEx employee became belligerent and even more so when I questioned why there were two different entries for the package, one that had appeared during my call. I was called a liar and told that I was trying to pull a scam. He kept referring to people "like me" as nothing but trouble (I live in a mixed upper middle class neighborhood) and said he could cause me no end of trouble.

    The next morning a FedEx driver showed up with the package which was wet, dripping and partially collapsed. Needless to say I refused the package --- this is the third time. And I cancelled my Blue Apron account. Not only did FedEx tracking show the package delivered the previous day, apparently this was told to Blue Apron who sent me an email saying that FedEx would keep the box frozen until it was delivered. The driver said this was untrue that it was just sitting behind her van in the warehouse.

    But my cell phone had died last Thursday and I needed to buy a new one. I live in Tuscaloosa. FedEx tracking showed that the package reached Birmingham, about 40 miles away, on Sunday afternoon. I tried to retrieve the package from the local FedEx shipping point and was told that even though it was there and accessible and technically my property, someone had added instructions not to deliver it until Friday, 9/23. It appears that someone is making good on the threat to cause me problems. When I returned home from the FedEx office, my mail box had been knocked down. A neighbor said that it was a FedEx truck which seemed to be having trouble making a turn and backed into it in the process. FedEx denies that this happened.

    An email was sent to their customer fraud site. FedEx cooked up a story that they had delivered it to the wrong house and had to pick it up. They now contend that they stored it in a non-existent freezer overnight. And that they had every right to hold any package coming to this address until the last possible contractual second --- 7:59 on the 5th business day. I do not have problems with either UPS or the USPS and my house is very visible, and the shipping address is correct. Throughout FedEx employees have refused to give their names or an identifier such as employee number.

    I would like to express my disappointment with the FedEx service. I sent my Kid's passport to CKGS APPLICATION CENTER NEW YORK for Indian Visa stamping on 29th Aug 2016 through FedEx. It was overnight delivery, well here is what happened. FedEx shipped my package to Wisconsin because of their system issue and I tracked package for a week but they were not able to answer. I filed a claim on Sep 08, 2016 and they took another week to trace package and were unable to retrieve it. I had Return flights booked for India on Oct 15th, 2016 which I will not be able to take as passport is lost and I cannot get new passport and visa stamped in this time. Total loss because of this delay cost me. Indian Visa stamping fees $156. Cancellation of Return Flights for 3 people : $950+$1200. Expedite passport fees $186.

    I have been in contact with FedEx back and forth for the past 3 weeks. I talked to FedEx representatives number of times in last 3 weeks, to track my package and to get status of the claims but it was pretty much same all time that we are trying to trace it. FedEx last sent a check of $100 and said this is as per policy for the loss of package.

    FedEx has ruined vacations of my family, that aside they are not even covering the costs of the passport fees. Needless to say, I was quite frustrated. I think you will understand, why I am upset at the manner in which this was handled. I expected a much higher level of service from your company, and I am quite disappointed. As a customer, one only expects a world-class global company that offers services like FedEx to be more professional and do better in servicing its clients. I will be informing my friends and family about this experience.

    My last 4 orders have been damaged, delayed, or the box was destroyed when delivered. Customer service doesn't care and doesn't want to be bothered! The last shipment I paid for overnight it was shipped and they went to tell me that it was Amazon's fault although Amazon have me their tracking everything to have here within two days and FedEx said well it won't be here today even though it showed it was out for delivery. Waited all day and called back for them to tell me I would not have that Saturday by 8 but should expect it by Wednesday by 8. WHAT? I paid for express 2 day and get 7 days later. NO way! Had it stops, refused, and sent back. Drove over 100 miles and bought one at Best Buy! Was very upset and FedEx could have cared less!

    Amazon gave me credit refunded before returned and apologized and told me they would look into other shipment companies for my things. The two before that had something broken in it and again could care less. One order was so damaged the company said FedEx sent back to them and I had to have the whole order resent to me. My order today stamped fragile all over and box all beat up again. They just don't care!!!

    FedEx gouges on customs fees and presents fees when there is no reason to charge them in the first place. There are only two companies in the world that gouge customers to this extent - one being FedEx and the other being DHL. They have both been doing this for years based on the technicality of "there is no competition so we can get away with it". Luckily, such is no longer the case. From my experience it is best to use regular mail rather than FedEx or DHL for any small value international shipments. The much vaunted "service standards" for each are a bunch of hot air, as they are based on actual complaints received rather than on actual on-time deliveries, so you are paying extra for something that does not exist anyways. I was in the business and I know how these statistics are created. Using regular airmail will avoid the gouging and the headaches of dealing with same after the fact!

    FedEx has not and still continues to not be able to deliver a package to my house. Now they cannot even find my son's house. Too many calls to them always fall on deaf ears and emails about their poor service go unanswered. I'm glad there are location like here that take reviews from actual screwed customers. I have always worked in a customer based businesses. I don't understand how a company as awful as FedEx is can continue to stay in business. Looks like if someone needs a job where there are no repercussions for performing horribly and not doing your job at all, FedEx is the place to go. I have even asked FedEx to take the package to a local UPS or USPS and let them deliver it to me because they always have without fail. They wouldn't do it though.

    I paid a lot of money to have a package overnighted. After 2 days the package arrived at my local FedEx and I am told I can't even go pick up and not wait for delivery since they don't want to unpack the shipment. So when FedEx says overnight it really means 4 days. This package was super important for the day that I needed it and am now being told it will be delivered after that day. And when I expressed that was not ok and I really needed to go pick up, was told to have a nice day and basically hung up on. The package was an 8 years in the making and was needed for a once in a lifetime moment. So when you pay the most money possible to have it here overnight that's what that should mean... Not 4 days later! So disappointed and at all costs I will never use FedEx again!

    The tracking number provided with my purchase stated the delivery was made to my door on 9/2 at a time when I was home and actually sitting with a window view to my front door. Box was never left -- no doorbell rang, nothing. I checked with the leasing office and it was not there either, so I filed a dispute in order to have the driver figure out where my package was. The driver confirms he dropped my package off, but when he describes the location where he left it, that is not my unit at all. He NEVER even dropped the box off anywhere near my door and now I am stuck in limbo between FedEx and the shipper. Disputing or doing the trace is completely ridiculous if it's just going to be my word that the box was NOT delivered and the driver who claims he dropped it off properly -- which is simply inaccurate.

    There was nothing done to help me except an "I'm sorry." Now I have to provide my shipper with an alternative address, which is annoying because I work from home -- so now I have to go out of my way to give a relative's address and then drive to pick up my box all because the FedEx driver was lazy or didn't care that he wasn't in front of my unit when he left the package. I also don't appreciate that he's acting like he did his job when he even stated in the dispute that he left my box near another unit number.

    I was waiting for a delivery. I live in a locked apartment building, there is a sign - "deliveries at the back" because that door is usually open during the day. Three days the FedEx guy put the "Sorry we missed you" notice on the FRONT DOOR, right above the "deliveries at the back" sign. So, I called the national customer service because I live in traffic hell and I really did not want to go to another city to pick up the package and was trying to have it sent back. They refused to send it back and were extremely rude acting like I was an awful person for not camping out in my front yard in 90+ degree weather for an entire day to catch the delivery guy and making me feel like I am a pest and a liar (I was doing this through the company that I made the order from, so their customer service rep, who was extremely polite was handling the conversation).

    When I asked for it to be sent back, the FedEx customer service rep started yelling at me that they made three attempts to deliver, that they were done helping me and that wanting my package was my problem, not theirs. My main issue is just the rudeness. I get delivery people are underpaid and it's frustrating but there is no reason a national customer service should be treating customers like they are bad people for missing deliveries or for asking for information. I avoid using FedEx at all costs. I would rather sit at the DMV or get a root canal than have to deal with this mess again.

    Now after 6 days I am still trying to get the package delivered. Since the package did not get delivered the customer service person that I spoke to who is from Central America (name) Rocio a Customer Advocacy person was unprofessional and lied. Also could not understand most of her comments. Where is this promised package they did not deliver? This package was supposed to be delivered over night!!

Even I went leasing office 2 times to ask them if they received but nothing was there. There are very important documents inside the package and now the package is not there. I mean how FedEx driver such a careless to leave the package at front door without signature. Such a bad experience. First and last time. I'll never suggest to anyone to use FedEx service instead UPS or USPS are good.

    My mother and I ordered a 16 pound bag of cat food, 31 pound bag of dog food, 35 pound container of cat litter, and 2 12 packs of wet dog food from Chewy.com to make it easier for my older mother so she doesn't have to pack them into her car and take them out of her car. FedEx delivered it to the wrong house -- the number was a huge difference. At 10AM, and the owner of the house it was delivered to came and told us it was left at their house by mistake. We called FedEx at around 1:30 and told them about the issue, and they said since it was a total of over 100 pounds they'd send a truck to pick it up and deliver it to the right address.

    By 3:30, we still didn't have the packages, so we called again and they said they'd have a truck out by 5:30. Still no packages, we called AGAIN and no one had any idea what was going on, and they transferred us to the guys at the terminal and said that since it was 6PM we'd have to wait till the next day since the terminal was closed. My mom and I weren't going to leave it at the house they delivered it to, so we had to pick up over 100 lbs worth of stuff because FedEx LIED, DIDN'T CARE and WOULDN'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR HUGE MISTAKE. My mother is lucky I was around to help her with this HUGE issue.

    I paid premium to have a package overnight to me, last week Thursday, August 25, 2016. On Monday night, August 29, I found a door tag that claimed no one was available to receive the delivery, even though I was. Early Tuesday morning, I called FedEx to complain and inquired when my package will arrive; I was assured that I will get it between 8 AM and 8 PM. I complained that I'd rather not spent the whole day for FedEx and the FedEx girl suggested that I sign door tag and repost it on my door. Which I did. Furthermore, I cancelled and/or re-arrange my errands for the day to wait for the package which never came.

    This morning, 8/29/16, I called FedEx again, to complain and check the status of my package and I was told a supervisor will called me back within two hours to update me. Four hours or so later, I am yet to get the package or the phone call. I checked their online tracking, and they actually logged that they were here at 3 PM yesterday and no one was available. What a LIE! What a fraud! This is habitual with FedEx. The second time this year. I wish my lab had used UPS. Now I am in a bind, my customer paid premium to get a premium product and service, but, Alas FedEx had done it again. As of 2:22 PM still waiting for a "overnight" package that left California six days ago! Incredulous! I decided to write this to warn other small businesses about this molasses of a company.

    Package left out in front of garage - then it poured rain. This occurred last Friday in my Vienna, VA residence, where the FedEx driver left an important package at our garage. Since this occurs consistently (versus USPS and UPS), I assume this is how your deliverers are trained. Unfortunately, this practice exposes our goods to the public as well as the elements (direct hot sun and rain). Please walk the 10 more feet to our front porch. This is disappointing service.

    FedEx is absolutely annoying. The employees are all cheaters, bunch of stupid people. You keep on waiting for a shipment and they never bring it, instead they will argue that they took to your place but didn't find anyone to hand the shipment to. If that's the case why don't you leave a note at the door to pick up from your location? They would not even make a call. I recommend people to boycott FedEx. Say NO to FedEx.

    FedEx refused to take any responsibility for missing packages and denied my claim for a refund, so I will NEVER do business with them again because I lost $300 from their carelessness and I can't trust placing my next package into their hands again. I attempted to deliver a package with FedEx shipping label sticker on it and dropped it off at an official FedEx drop-off box next to a professional building one day, but then it ended up being missing and UNSCANNED. The driver doesn't scan it so therefore it just simply disappeared in thin air with no proof of tracking!

    The package is worth $300 and they just don't give a bother when I filled out complaint and claim. I got instantly denied for my claim even with plenty of evidence provided and I was being whisked away on the phone call complaining about them not taking any responsibility. They don't want to help because it wasn't scanned into the system - which is a problem in the first place BECAUSE THEIR DRIVER DOESN'T SCAN EVERYTHING they got from drop-off boxes. I was so upset and wished that they would realize their mistakes and give me a refund.

    FedEx has built a poor reputation on not leaving a note, lying, and now not even trying to deliver a package at all. Instead, the driver went to my Apartment Clubhouse. I caught him with his pants down! I saw him drive in and didn't come towards my apartment so I ran towards the clubhouse and he was already out of the parking area and out of sight. This is a big truck and I literally was out there in less than five minutes. I asked the manager if FedEx just delivered a package for me and they looked and sure enough they signed for it "less than 5 minutes ago." I reiterate the FedEx creep did not even try to deliver to my door. Even if I cannot get a complaint to FedEx, I tell all the merchants I buy from how poorly I am treated with their products.

According to the tracking, the package was in Denver on the Aug 18th. Are you kidding me? It took 1 week and a day to get the package to be delivered from less than 2 hours away?

    With a Sony pre-paid printing label in hand. I approach the FedEx counter as the FedEx clerk calls me forward saying: "Hello sir, how can I help you?" As I had the clerk my prepaid Sony printing label I say in response to this question: "I have a Sony dvd player to go back to Sony electronics and a prepaid printing label." I continued by asking him about the cost of the boxes that were on display. He says to me "well those boxes may not be big enough. I have one here in the back." He goes back and brings out a box. He takes my DVD player and put it in the Box he had retrieved from behind the counter and this is where the confusion began.

    Scene 2 FED EX STORE WITH CLERK. After looking on his computer screen he says: "I cannot locate Sony electronics name so we can Bill them for your package." The confused look I answered back "well what do you mean you can't bill them. Here is the printing label?" Clerk: "I'm sorry sir I cannot locate the name of the organization that I am to bill for this package. Sony electronics is not named here as one of the parties will accept responsibility for this package." I look at the printing label and I look at the email that Sony has sent me to see if there were any other names that I could give him that he may have on his computer so we can bill for the package. Finding one name I give it to him and sure enough that name there was not located it as well.

    Puzzled and somewhat frustrated because my wife is in the hospital and I took 10 minutes to spin off to the FedEx station to get this package out because you were looking forward to getting a replacement DVD player for the one we had purchased six months earlier had broken and Sony said they would send us a new one. So I called Sunny and spoke with representative. After a few moments he was just as puzzled and confused as I was and I said "could you please speak to the clerk" as I handed the clerk the phone that worked up the phone and he position does upside down and kept saying "hello-hello hello!"

    Taking the sound back from the clerk the Sony representative could not answer my question. He said "let me contact the billing department." So Sony wanted to contact their billing department to find out what was going on. At that time the clerk said "don't worry about it. We'll just send a package out for free no big deal" but having an understanding of money and its importance to manage well I was eager to make sure that FEDEX got paid for their package and I said: "No sir let me just just hold on a minute. I want to get you your money for the package etc etc..."

    But realizing that waiting for Sony in their billing department probably more confusion as my wife waits for my return as she's in the hospital; So I took the clerk's offer of the free package and I said to the FedEx Clerk: "well let's do it that way please." Taking the package he readies the tape and I noticed there's no packing material inside to protect to DVD player from any harm due to shipping as it was the DVD player would just be bouncing around and probably wind up in worse condition and I said to him: "sir could you please put some packing material in the Box?" He replied: "well I'm really not supposed to do this but ok."

    Final Scene. Recap. Once again I had come up to the counter I asked him: "how much was the box that was on display?" He said that "the box might not be the size you're looking for so he grabbed one from behind the counter, took my DVD player, put it in the Box without any packing material tape in hand ready to close it. Danny said I cannot find the organization to bill for the Package. So after putting some packing material and he brings out the taste and we get into a little sad but I caution and I come to find out that I had been wasting all this precious time. I repeat. I left my wife to spend on the year. He grab the DVD player, put it in a box and when he said "I don't know what the bill for this package" he was talking about the cost of grabbing my DVD player for my hand putting it in the Box without packing material and pick it up. You paid doing that there's a cost of $10 for that. Yes folks $10.

    I put my DVD player and a box and tape it up. This is absolutely ludicrous. It's pathetic. It's scam. It's so pathetic I want to puke right now. Just talking about it it makes me angry. It makes me sick that the company would steal from me and probably the other hundred thousands if not millions of people older people, younger people who may not be too concerned or understand or have those with say why why why am I paying $10 for you to put the DVD player in a box and tape it. Why am I working 45 minutes or maybe even more than an hour for you to do that but that's simple. Are you kidding me America. Are you kidding me FedEx. Somebody do something about this RIPOFF.

This Advocare company uses FedEx for delivery. My product was estimated to arrive on Aug 10, 2016, however did not come until Aug 11, 2016, which is not a huge deal to me. The problem I have is that my package was left on my doorstep in the pouring rain for 6 hours. From 1430hrs, when it hadn't arrived yet and I had to go to work, to 2100hrs when I came home to see it soaked and, to top it off, crushed into my door step.

    The items I ordered are not supposed to be out in the rain, humidity, heat, etc. I would have expected my package, if not able to be delivered, to be returned to a local FedEx location so that I may at least pick it up myself - or it could have been sent for re-delivery. The last thing I expected was for it to be crushed and completely soaked through from being left in the rain. Luckily the company from which I ordered has excellent customer service and will replace my items if need be. I am disappointed in your company, and do not see a reason for such error. I would appreciate better quality customer service and delivery in the future.

It seems like a good way to get an extra $5 per customer; their customer service is entirely script-driven and you may as well be talking to a robot. Their so-called customer service complaint form makes you jump through so many hoops - asking for multiple numbers and vendor names, and generating error messages, that after a while you give up and can only say this is what a giant conglomerate can do to you and you have no recourse.

So they tell me to give them the tracking number and I do and then they tell me they can't. Due to the fact that they feel that it is a suspicious neighborhood. When I tell them that I'm not that concerned they like "Is there a place where it is safe from other people anyway?" I'm like "No just leave it on the front porch." Then they tell me to hold so they can see what they can do. I do but I am on hold for like 25 mins before getting disconnected.

    I will try to call again but this is ridiculous. They were rude about it all as well and I would never have used them if I could.

Confirmation number given was "**." At 4:27 PM, no driver had yet showed up, so I called FedEx and asked "when" someone would pick up the package. After looking up my confirmation number, she said that they had in their system that we were open 24 hours. I told her that I never said that, and reiterated what I had told the original person that took my call at 10:00 AM.

    She then stated that she could not contact the driver directly, but she could put a request in for a pick on that day - however, she needed to give the driver at least two hours for the pickup (so approximately 6:30 PM). I told her that I was sure someone would still be here and that was fine. Thursday morning, I arrived at my office at 8:00 AM and the FedEx envelope was still sitting on the front desk. I immediately called them, and Vicky in Customer Support told me (after several minutes because she could not locate my confirmation number) that the driver arrived at 4:30, but our offices were closed. NOTE that our office door is always open until the cleaning crew leaves (approx. 9:00 PM) and "they" lock the doors at that time.

    The FedEx driver required to delivery in North Clarksville coming from 1750 Jardco Dr is an outright LIAR and the supervisor at the hut is as lying and unconcerned as the driver. Wednesday, Aug 3, 2016 a driver LIED indicating that he delivered a package to a residential address @ 1:50 pm. I received email confirmation from the shipper indicating the package had been delivered. However @ 1:50 pm it was a complete THUNDER STORM with heavy winds and all.

    The thunderstorm lasted at least until after 4 pm! I knew the driver had lied because of several reasons: 1. The thunderstorm and no driver wants to get and do their job in conditions like this although that is what they get paid to do; 2. The driveway is a walking distance from the porch of the home so he would have to get out and get soaked; 3. The house is a freaking in home day care and there were people in the home. The driver lied indicating that the package was left on the porch however there was no door tag or anything. The only reason I was notified is because the shipper did so.

    I called to report the LIES and was told the claim could take up to 48 hours for review. This was so unacceptable. I checked with neighbors on both sides and in front to make sure the package wasn't delivered to them. It had not been. Then, after the close of business or right before the close of business (AFTER THE RAIN STOPPED AND THE COMPLAINT HAD BEEN FILED) this lying ** came pulling back up to drop the package off. Please explain to me how you can pull up and drop off a package that you claimed had been delivered already? Two days later the supervisor from the hub called me to say the driver must have just delivered it to the one of the neighbors in error.

    I explained to her that I had already spoken with the neighbors and that was a lie as well. If he did not want to do his job because he is too freaky lazy or due to the weather he should have stayed at home for the day. Had I not received the confirmation from the shipper FedEx would have gone on with the lie trying to insinuate the package had been delivered and left without a signature. I explained to the supervisor that there was no way the driver had delivered that package. She stated that the driver gave her a description of the house in which the package was left.

    Again I asked how could he have left the package at the house if he pulled back up with it when he delivered it. The only thing the supervisor did was to continue to make excuses for the driver. This is horrible service. I have contacted the shipper to inform them that I will no longer do business with them if they are going to use FedEx as their carrier. I would not recommend FedEx to anyone. If you want your packages you had better find another way to get them because for all I know this driver could have been trying to steal my package. FedEx is known for hiring criminals anyway.

    This is not the first time I have had an issue with this Jardco Drive location. Once before about 3 years ago a driver lied indicating he had delivered a package to me that was never delivered. It contained a $10,000 settlement check. I literally went in the office and REFUSED to leave until the driver came back to the station to obtained my package. They are horrible, unprofessional, lazy, and a bunch of lying bums. I am NOT happy with them at all. I don't have a receipt for my package to add to this review because one was never provided but I do have a tracking number.

    I ordered a laptop a week ago and the package arrived yesterday needing a signature. However, I was unable to sign since I was at work so I called customer service so they would hold it at the facility after work so I could grab it. I go to the facility (1 hour away from where I live) to get the package, but I get there and they say there is a special restriction on it so they can't touch it. I call customer service again and they say they will hold it for pickup the next morning.

    The next day, I take the time out of my work day to drive out in the morning to grab it. Upon arrival they tell me to wait in the car and that they will check because there is a chance that it left on a truck. After wasting an hour of time sitting there, I finally told them to have it ready for me that afternoon to pick up after work since I had to go back to work. Still have no idea if I will get the package today. AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS EVER BEEN AT WORK WHEN THEY DELIVER EVERY TIME??? Their system is completely flawed and requires a much better solution for customer like me who work 9-5 jobs.

    So I have given this company a lot of latitude. I understand the difficulties in finding a house or apartment you are scheduled to visit. I also have some close friends who work for Fedex and one who is pretty high up in the company. My wife doesn't work and she homeschools our kids, so there is always someone home. For several years, across three areas I have been on the receiving end of Fedex's business. Almost 80% of deliveries I get through Fedex becomes problematic. Calling them with a dispute is pointless. Expecting the delivery driver to ring a doorbell is like pulling teeth. I have had numerous things delivered to a neighbor, left out in the rain, left at the roadside by my or my neighbors mailbox, and signature required deliveries mysteriously signed for yet never delivered.

    For this latest fiasco we were justifiably concerned when Walmart only allowed Fedex for rush packages. We paid for faster delivery in the hopes it would make it before a birthday. Paid for next day delivery 7 days out from the birthday. Walmart drag their feet in shipping a bit, but the tracking of the package stated "picked up" 4 days prior to the date we needed it before. So 3 days to make it through their system until it finally showed out for delivery. The problem is it kept saying "on the truck for delivery for 4 more days."

    Now on a Saturday a few days after I needed it, the tracking showed it was delivered. Surprise, surprise, nothing was at my front door, around my mailbox, or on my carport. Walked the street and happened to notice a large box sitting out in one of my neighbors driveways right after a rainstorm today that looked like it may be ours. Or neighbors were not home but not wanting it to get any more damaged in the rain that was threatening, we looked at the label and yep, it was ours.

    Now understand that I have been made in the past to pay for shipping a second time due to Fedex refusing to address their drivers not delivering things to us. Usually in those cases I call the local FedEx hub and request them hold the packages and I go and pick it up. I go out of my way, spend my time and gas money to complete the job they are paid to do in most cases. Once we had some fairly expensive electronics shipped through Fedex only to have them refuse the loss claim because they said they had my signature on the receipt. I asked to see this receipt which they could not produce due to a "computer error".

    At least the online stores usually will work with you when Fedex fails. I have had this happen in Northern Mississippi, Southern Mississippi, and now South Central Louisiana. Out of those three the North Mississippi guys seemed to at least try, usually leaving things on my neighbors carport (which happened to be my parent's house so not as big a deal). The Southern Mississippi guys are the ones who committed forgery and leaving things just anywhere, and the ones here in Baton Rouge just can't seem to find the right house or get things under an overhang.

    I was expecting a delivery on 7/26/2016 deliver by FedEx. The tracking information said out for delivery. At 4:30 I received a email stating they were unable to deliver package because no one was home. The only thing is I was home all day. I have a driveway alarm and a dog that barks if someone pull in our driveway. Also my wife and I were both sitting where we could see the driveway and the time the driver supposedly tried to deliver the package.

    I called the office in Wentworth Ga, where the package was coming from. And my wife called the main FedEx office. Neither one of them would do anything. What is really upsetting is the driver lied. He didn't try to deliver the package and FedEx didn't care that they have dishonest drivers. Other companies would have contacted the driver and made him deliver the package, but not FedEx. I order a lot of things online because of the distance I live from stores. I will not order anything else that has to be delivered by FedEx.

    I am very disappointed how FedEx is ripping off their customer for international shipping. I ordered a small package from US. Only $90 + $66 shipping, papers all OK. Under 100$ no extra custom duties. When the package arrived FedEx charged me again $65 for clearance. After many complaints, one of the staff explain to me that the value of the package ($90) is too less so FedEx Broker Service added the $66 shipping charges to the value of the goods (total $156) so the value of $100 exited the free custom duties, and they charge me the same amount for shipping again. So I have to paid Clearance Tax for the FedEx freight cost. This is clearly a ripoff from FedEx. I also will take further actions on this.

    On June 29 2016 I shipped a package FedEx ground, only had to go from Pennsylvania to Ohio but never made it. I was informed by FedEx that the item was damaged in shipping. I filed a claim since the shipment was fully insured but in the words of FedEx "the shipment was not adequately prepared or packed for safe transportation as required under the terms governing this shipment" therefore they refuse to pay out. Now it seems to me that they would still deliver the package or return it to me but I never got anything but a "screw you." To me it seems like straight up theft as the package was never delivered or returned and they never even returned what I paid to ship the item. There really is NO evidence of what happened to the shipment. Was it lost stolen or did they really damage it? I know the item really really had to be abused to damage it.

Delivery man did not bother to even knock once and just left it where he can place it anywhere out in the open and view. If he even bothered for a few seconds to knock on door, anyone in my family could have answered and checked during anytime. My package wouldn't have been stolen. My family and I orders stuff from online multiple times and other carriers have knocked on doors or ring the doorbell and even waited for us to get our package.

FedEx says it was due to something "out of their control" i.e. a thunderstorm so it is "not their fault". Their entire job is shipping.

Spent two days on the phone with FedEx trying to figure out where the missing piece is and still no answer. Two frustrating parts (outside of not getting what I need). 1. After several calls, I asked if they could call me with updates as there was no way on the site to find out what was happening. The FedEx official said yes and have heard nothing since. 2. Called in 2x times on a Saturday. Both times I was on hold for 10+ minutes ("Fedex has the lowest LTL rates in the industry!") and then was disconnected. Very disappointed.

    Supposedly received pkg at front door on 7/13/16. Pkg not there. Our camera at front porch shows the side of a FedEx guy appearing to put pkg on porch. Can't see his hand, only shoulder. He walks away after reaching down. Tracking showed he left pkg at 11:31 (same time on our camera). No pkg. Waited to call FedEx 5:00. Opened case, they stated they would contact driver. Called 3 hrs later (as they said they would call 2 hrs later but never heard from them). Still no change on the tracking info according to operator. "Somebody will call you tomorrow." No call.

    I called noon the next day. Operator stated it was delivered today at 11:16. Yes, it's on my porch. Our street address is actually crossed out on mailing label. Something else written next to it but then that is crossed out also. Operator stated that driver left it at a wrong address and went back to retrieve it. Ok, then why was he at my door on Weds appearing to put something down on porch? We had no other pkgs that day, but he is clearly on my camera. Tracking report from Weds. states pkg was left at doorstep.

    Thursday, tracking report changed and shows he did not come here Weds, (shows 6:36 a.m. it was on FedEx truck, no other activity after that for Weds). Current tracking report shows pkg was delivered Thursday. Shows "retrieved shipment" at 11:15 a.m., and 11:16 a.m. was "left at my front door." Do they change tracking reports even when they make a misdelivery? Called to complain about driver and FedEx said they would notify the mgr of local warehouse. Haven't heard from that person yet.

The morning of the 12th it showed on truck out for delivery. End of day no package. Checked the website and it stated that the package delivery date was changed by the customer. I called their customer service and they told me someone called and asked that the delivery be moved to the 13th. I told them no one called. 13th came and went and I checked the website that night and it stated incorrect address need additional information and I needed to call. This time I called Amazon and they were very polite. While I was on hold they called Fedex CS who verified the address was correct and said they didn't know why it wasn't delivered and that it will be delivered on the 14th.

    Meanwhile I got an email from Fedex customer service stating the package is being held and that I need to verify the address, which I did. Morning of the 14th the website showed out for delivery. It is now 5 pm on the 14th and the package just arrived as I was writing this review. The driver was a very polite young man in a FedEx truck. When I questioned him if he had this package for the last 3 days he told me it was given to him just today and that it previously had been on another route. Since he was driving a company truck and wore their uniform I got the impression he worked directly for them and appeared honest and sincere. He apologized for the trouble and said that he did know of a contract driver that they had issues with in the past but that he has been gone for a year. I told him I think you now have his twin brother.

    Together we checked the address and he said he had no issue with it and came straight to me. Nevertheless I had a similar experience a few years ago with FedEx and a damage issue with their freight and it is no more FedEx for me. I have better things to deal with than lying drivers and customer service people that want to give you a runaround.

After 40 minutes on the phone with their "customer service rep." the corporate secret was released that for an addition fee I could receive the packed the following day, after 5 pm when I would be home, another wasted 200 miles of travel for my package.

    When I arrived at home the next afternoon early the FedEx driver would not release the package until 5pm, requiring the driver to waste 2 1/2 waiting in my driveway to release the package. After pleading for 30 minutes and being put on hold for 10 minute a district manager informed me that the package could not be released until 5 pm because that is the company's policy. What a waste of my time and the driver's resources, clearly the contract that was not negotiated between the drive and the non-union FedEx corporation show the inefficiencies of this market relationship. FedEx shipping procedures are for the good of FedEx profit margins only.

    I call FedEx byzantine because it reminds me of the rigidly bureaucratic top down system that allowed a dead 4th century Byzantine emperor to rule for several months after he was dead. Listening to a district manager tell me that a package could not be released for 3 hours though I was standing only feet away was like reading proclamations to a dead emperor as though the reality of his passing could not be acknowledged because of a inane concrete hierarchical decision making process. Fedex clearly operates in a market economy that favors its relationship with the shipper and not its drivers of receivers of packages. If it was truly an efficient expediter (as it district manager claims) it would acknowledge the waste in the system that is being unfairly borne by its non-union drivers and the receiver of the package that FedEx admittedly does not consider a customer... gotcha capitalism at its worst!

    I had to ship a gift that had to be delivered to Morocco by the June 30. I went to Fedex store on June 22 and paid $141. I was promised that the delivery would be made by June 30. Now we are on July 8th and has not been delivered yet. They ruined the whole gift surprise to the people I am sending to. My package was in France for 3 days and then was sent to Ukraine for 4 days and was shipped back to France for 3 days and spent 1 day in Spain and finally made it to Morocco last Tuesday. We are on Friday 8th and I called them this morning and they told it will be delivered on Monday. Last time I am using them. I will stick with USPS.

    2:59 pm: Delivered. 2:54 pm: Delivery exception. Retrieved shipment. 5:22 am: On FedEx vehicle for delivery. 5:01 am: At local FedEx facility. NEVER RECEIVED PACKAGE. My package was allegedly ORIGINALLY delivered at 10a.m. The driver then picked the package ("retrieved shipment") because he "misdelivered it" and then almost 5 hours later at 2:59 p.m., he "redelivered it to the right location". The driver also put that my package was signed for... Well, he put that it was signed for by my "Patio" and I don't even have a patio.

    FedEx said they were waiting to hear back from the driver to see where he delivered it to. They informed me that the drivers have 5-7 days to follow up with these claims. The driver NEVER contacted them. They said it was still under review. The case was closed and they denied my claim even though the driver did not respond to the case.

    So I do not have my package. Maybe the driver noted that he redelivered it but really he just stole it. It was merchandise from Barneys. He knows the company would trust him so he just put that 5 hours later he "redelivered it" and kept the package for himself. I was there when the update sent to me saying it was delivered and I called FedEx immediately saying that my package was not there. Maybe he delivered it to the right place the first time and redelivered it to the wrong place the second time.

    I only got the immediate update delivery notification for the 2:59pm delivery, I was never notified of the 10am delivery. But FedEx shows AND explained on the phone that the driver misdelivered at 10am and redelivered at 2:59pm. Whatever the case, the story on their end doesn't add up especially that the driver never followed up with his own company like it isn't his responsibility or something. Or FedEx just doesn't care and it was not urgent for them to make sure their drivers are following up with these claims.

    Thanks a lot for not being able to do anything about the packages YOU deliver, and thanks a lot for making sure your driver NEVER followed up with my claim. Thanks a lot for closing my case and DENYING IT (Whoever the person sitting at their desk is that stamped a denial on it since they trust their driver so much that my nonexistent "PATIO" must have signed for my sunglasses). Thanks that all you have to offer is "I'm sorry ma'am but there's isn't anything we can do on our side, you have to call the place you ordered from and dispute the charge with your credit card company." Does your drivers info not sound the slightest bit fishy to you, especially not contacting his company to say his part of his delivery story??? WHATEVER. Obviously not using FedEx anymore unfortunately.

    We don't have an electronic doorbell at our house, but we do have a LARGE brass bell next to our door and a BIG sign that says: "Ring Bell LOUDLY." Today we were expecting a very important, very expensive package. We rearranged our schedule to be here for the package delivery. Two of us were home and in different parts of our house; we could have easily heard the bell. Imagine our surprise when we opened the front door to find FedEx's paper slip of attempted delivery (15 MINUTES EARLIER) but "customer not available." WTF? The delivery person did not ring the bell, nor, apparently, even knock very hard on the door and split within just a few seconds, taking our much anticipated, much needed package. We immediately called FedEx to see about turning that guy around, meet him somewhere, or at least be able to pick up our package later this evening at a distribution center. We were told "No," on all three counts.

    The service rep said that it was a "contracted" delivery person and that there was no way to get in touch with the driver because "they are not supposed to carry phones with them." WTF? Well then, what about picking the package up at a FedEx center? No can do, the rep explained. Such contracted drivers take undelivered packages home with them in their vans. WTF? My rare and expensive package is sitting God knows where in someone's van overnight? WTF? At every turn in our experience the service was PATHETIC. 1) Obviously the driver was too rushed to concern about Priority No. 1 - the customer, 2) It is incredulous that FedEx drivers, any drivers, cannot be contacted immediately? 3) Contract drivers taking undelivered packages home to likely totally unsecured locations? If this is FedEx's standard operating procedures, NO THANK YOU, I won't be doing further business with them.

    This is a shipping company, right? That apparently is not the case. The package for a client was held up for delivery. I called to find out the hold up. After 42 minutes of holding, I was told that they had the wrong zip code and had tried to contact me multiple times to find the correct information, to no avail. They refused to deliver the package after three failed attempts. Yet, when I looked up the shipping information that they were given, the zip was correct, and the phone was also correct. In other words, FedEx dropped the ball on this one and wanted to blame errant info -- seems to be their standard mode of operation. This is my last bad experience with FedEx.

I tracked my package only to find out that it is still in Britain. Called to speak to a rude representative and the worse customer rep with no manners about conflict resolution.

    I have used FedEx Delivery Manager for the past couple of years b/c I place lots of online orders so I get lots of packages delivered to my house. Recently I tried to change my address b/c I have moved. The FedEx website would allow me to change my address in one place but not the address to which packages are to be sent. Instead I got an Error 1000. My husband, who has had a FedEx Delivery Manager account almost as long as I have, tried to make the same address change and got the same result.

    This is not the first time I have had problems w/ the FedEx website. About a year ago, I logged in and requested a change of delivery date b/c I was going to be out of town when something was to be delivered. The website accepted the change, but I started getting email notices that the driver had attempted to deliver the package on the original date. I called my local FedEx and was told that they NEVER receive any notification when changes like that are made online. In other words, making that kind of request on the website is useless b/c it will NEVER be communicated to the local office which is responsible for customer's deliveries.

    I don't know if FedEx will read this review or if they do read it, whether they will care to do anything to correct the problem. I found numerous online complaints by people who have had the same experience with the FedEx website. Surely FedEx has read a few of these complaints, but nothing seems to have been done to date to resolve the problems. Perhaps the FedEx website is functional for business customers but not for residential ones. If that is the case, then why even bother to offer residential customers the FedEx Delivery Manager option?

    In short, FedEx has a dysfunctional website. It appears that the company does not care enough to hire IT staff who are capable of changing the program to make it usable. Too bad they don't take a lesson from UPS which offers a similar service. The only difference is the UPS service WORKS. For that reason, whenever I make a purchase which is to be delivered, I request that the merchant use UPS instead of FedEx. Perhaps if more people did the same thing, it might grab the attention of FedEx b/c nothing else has.

Since it got delayed, I was contacting FedEx to help me, so that I can at least go pick it up from local office, and I did asked them to charge me anything on top of my shipping cost - nothing worked out.

    I am attaching the location to be more specific 670 E 132nd St, Bronx, NY 10454 is the WORST. The drivers are lazy, the supervisors are never available and they lack communication and customer attention!!! After filing 2 complaints and several phone calls with FedEx you think a supervisor will call to apologize or to make sure the customer gets their packages!! I was supposed to get an overnight delivery, I took off from work to wait since they gave me a tracking number and an estimated time of delivery which was 8pm. The driver's claims that on the first try I was unavailable, there was no door tag, didn't ring the doorbell even though he knew this is an apartment building and in order to get in someone has to buzzed the in!!

    I call FedEx. Within 10 minutes of the so call attempts they couldn't get a hold of the driver that the next day they will try again between 10am-2pm. Again I take off from work to wait, driver claims they attempted at 2:30. I called at 2:45. I was asked by my contact info, they were going to see if they can get the driver to turn before going into the center to park, no response. I call back at 4pm. Another representative ask me the same questions again. I waited. I called at 5pm (all of this the same day, now this is day number 2). That representative takes my information. Their system states that they are trying to get the driver but is unresponsive. They call the site to speak to a supervisor. All supervisors are not onsite!! Now I am beyond annoyed and frustrated. File a complaint that night, there is nothing they can do!

    3rd day the same thing!! If I'm paying for overnight delivery why is it taking them so long and why should I have to go out of my way, because the lazy driver does not want to get his behind out the truck to ring the doorbell and go up 3 floors with an envelope that weighs a pound!!! Now am being charged for a package that I don't have and I'm left with several migraines and high blood pressure for crappie services!!! Now am more annoyed because in their tracking system it says that my delivery can happen up until 8pm, yet by 5pm the driver is gone!!

    So I sold some items on eBay. Went to go ship them, checked out all my shipping options. Selected FedEx due to the fact they were 8 cents cheaper than USPS. (Even though I would have to drive 20 mins to drop it off at their building. Was quoted the same price in store rate as well as the online rate. Printed my labels and dropped them off at your store.

    Then a month later, I check eBay and FedEx charge me after the fact over 200% the price quoted to me. Contacted FedEx, they agreed they should refund me but since I paid through eBay they had no way to refund me directly. So I filed a complaint with the BBB regarding the scam they pulled on the shipping charges. (Keep in mind had I just paid in the store. There would have been no way for them to try and charge me twice the amount later.) Received a response FedEx saying "that shipping charge is just an estimate and that they can actually charge you whatever they want after the fact”. (For example what if the truck did not have any parcels that day it would cost me more because the truck still had to do the route.)

    SO in other words this company quotes you a rate just under USPS to rope you into picking them and then later charging you twice as much as you agreed. BAIT AND SWITCH ALLLL DAY, not to mention they continuously change the delivery day as they push-off your package on trucks later and later but that is just a whole different type of scam they pull (not complaining about that one - just the fact that they scammed me on shipping charges). In the same boat? Save all proof. There are a few attorneys currently working on a class action lawsuit and I intend to send in my written testimony.

    I have a FedEx account. I needed to send a package today by noon. I took it to the FedEx hub at the airport. My receipt said $65.91 and I was not told it may be more when I get my bill. When I got the bill it was $87.63. I disputed the amount and received an email that the dispute was denied due to correct pricing. There is no option to dispute this or contact anyone else. I will be calling by phone tomorrow. The breakdown on the new bill is: 76.37 transportation charges; 11.26 special handling charges. On the receipt at the bottom it says "Subject to additional charges. See FedEx Service Guide at fedex.com for details..." ...which I did and read everything in it that applied to what I sent and the area I sent it to and I paid upfront for deliver services.

    So unless FedEx charges extra for having an account and penalizing you for billing, I cannot see what applies. I shipped a painting, to a business. It was not in an out of way area. It was not unusually heavy. It was a regular box. The business was open. Anyone could accept the package there. I will NEVER use FedEx for shipping again! I do not understand how you can ship with them, pay extra at the airport for what you are shipping to make sure it gets there in time, and then be sent a bill for a much larger amount. Maybe companies with billing do not pay attention to the receipt they are getting and then just pay the bill when it comes. NO OTHER shipping carrier does this! I don't go to the post office, pay for something to ship and then get a bill later with no explanation as to why.

    Is FedEx charging for the drivers lunch? I don't know. What a scam. Nowhere do I know where this is acceptable. How can they not know how much to charge you for shipping when you take the package yourself to their hub at the airport, have them measure and weigh it? And, how can they not tell you when you take it there that "Oh, by the way, you are going to get a bill that may be much higher than what I am quoting you now"? Do they honestly think the people would not walk out the door and go to another shipper? Is that why it is printed at the bottom of the receipt? I will be closing my FedEx account tomorrow!

This has to be written down as there is no emailed reference or print-out reference with this on unless you go through the receipt process. More paper... and 1 out of 10 for user friendliness.

    I shipped a hardshell suitcase from Los Angeles to South Jersey. The suitcase arrived with the telescoping handle extended and badly twisted and unable to be pushed back into the suitcase; in short, FedEx broke my suitcase. I filed a claim. My claim was denied because FedEx said if they did not put it in a box, they are not responsible for damage to suitcases. Nowhere is this mentioned on their luggage shipping page. At the desk I was not told FedEx would not take responsibility for suitcase damage. The South Jersey location I shipped from originally (the damage occurred on the return trip) in fact told me I didn't need a box since my suitcase was hardshell and sturdy.

    FedEx is encouraging people to use their luggage shipping service and not adequately informing people of the conditions under which they will and will not take responsibility for suitcase damage. They are apparently not telling their location workers what the policy is either. I cannot recommend this service as an alternative to regular airline/train luggage services.

    The absolute worst. They said they "attempted" 3 deliveries but not ONCE did my doorbell ring! All I got was a damn door tag and I asked the neighbors and they said he just stuck the tag on the door and walked away! So I called the establishment and she said the guy tried 3 times and they can either hold my package or send it back. I told her that their delivery guy is completely lazy and any idiot can see that at ANY apartment complex you have to RING the receivers doorbell. I tried to track the tag number and it kept coming up invalid! This is why I like UPS 10x more than FedEx.

    FedEx attempted delivering a parcel to me on a Tuesday at 11:25 am but I wasn't home. Called the office and they told me they only make one attempt. The driver doesn't carry a phone so am I should drive JUST 15 kms to go pick it up!! So I guess my bad, I should have taken a day off, sit home, and wait for the delivery!!!

    Now I understand why the post office has been and will be around for many more decades.

    I was charged and promised full delivery point A-Z - total cost $344.00 for a 8 lb box with toys less than $75.00 and a stethoscope, diabetics kit to check sugar levels. They told me "$200.00". Reluctantly I agreed. Just one thing FedEx forgot to tell me. The endpoint wanted extortion money to deliver it the last mile. I did so to make sure my girlfriends dad got a good set of testing tools for his blood pressure and diabetics.

    When it got to Uganda, the Uganda govt. wanted another $200.00 to deliver. Worse cause I didn't want to pat that. So I wanted it returned. They wanted to charge me for that service. To leave Uganda. Otherwise they would keep my property forever or until I die. So I paid the extortion fee. They called it duty and taxes. So the best way to get a package to Uganda, is to fly it yourself, on a trip there in your luggage or the best way is to send it with someone going there who's a Uganda citizen. The workers are foreign, and are clueless or limitless on what they are able to do. The promise made to me point a-z was an empty promise.

    I ordered an item and received shipment details for FedEx. The tracking detail showed it should be delivered on 6/1. As of 6/4 they still have not delivered the package although it was on the truck for delivery on 6/1 and 6/2. Status said "delivery not attempted." So on 6/2, when it hadn't arrived by 8pm, I changed delivery to pick up myself at FedEx/Kinko's since I figured the driver could find that location. I also called FedEx on 6/3. I was told the package needed "a label update" and would be delivered on 6/4. Once again, no delivery to the FedEx/Kinko's today...

    I contacted FedEx again tonight because I received no notifications today that my package was available for pick-up. Now the tracking details show an expected delivery of 6/7... When I called I was told that now the package is "in inventory." None of the explanations make sense to me given the package was on the truck for delivery since 6/1. See attached screenshot for tracking history. I'm concerned that something has happened to my order and I may not receive it. I didn't have the option to pick up at store but if this is a common experience for FedEx then I wouldn't trust them to deliver in the future. Most companies don't tell you who they contract for delivery which is disappointing.

Finding a corporate email address is impossible (so far), and FE does not respond to Facebook complaints, even re-fraud. Watch out.

    Packages received via FedEx have been consistently late over the last several years. More recently, I have been tracking a shipment since the package was sent on 05/27/16. After a day the tracking information estimated that the package would arrive a day late on the 4th of June. Now the tracking info indicates that it will arrive 3 days late on June 6th. I called FedEx customer service to ask about the delay and was told that shipments are not guaranteed by the estimated date for ground shipments.

    I asked for my feedback to be passed to a higher level and the FedEx CSR said that information is periodically reviewed and seemed to indicate that mine would be as well. Unfortunately the company I bought the product from only had an option for ground shipping (though apparently expedited shipping is available via their webstore but I didn't see an option on eBay). I did send feedback to the eBay seller via their customer service email system to let them know about the delay.

    I had ordered something online & the company used FedEx as their carrier. It was standard shipping, so I expected it within a week or so, give or take since it was coming from California & I live in New York. The package took almost a month to arrive. I was tracking it all the while with the number & the updates were so few & far in between that I thought it might have been lost after two weeks. A few days after I had ordered this package, I also ordered something else from another company that used UPS. That package also was shipping from California, yet that package arrived 4 or 5 days after it had shipped, despite me ordering it after this package that had yet to arrive. I contacted FedEx multiple times about the status of my package to which I got no response. The tracking info updated every couple of days & my projected delivery date kept changing & being pushed back farther & farther.

    I'm not impatient, I know stuff happens & I know how long a package usually takes to get from one place to another, but near a month is ridiculous. As the tracking info updated there was also one point where it was in NJ & then it went to a town in PA that was farther away than where I lived & then it went to someplace in CT. Why?? I went to the Better Business Bureau with a complaint & got a stupid letter in the mail from FedEx in response that "estimated delivery dates" are just that, estimated, meanwhile this stupid person is clearly ignoring the obvious that it shouldn't take that long for a package from California to New York to be delivered & why on earth is the package being transferred to places more out of the way than going to me?? I wish I hadn't let it slide but pushed it farther with the BBB cause this was horrible service & it shows how much they care about their job or business.

    Placed the order on Thursday 5/26/16. It listed a 2-day Express delivery, expected delivery 1 Jun. That is exactly 6 days! Granted the 30th was Memorial day, so Sunday and Monday should not count. What happened to Friday, Saturday (end of Saturday would have marked the 2-day delivery period).

    I have been tracking my package for about five days and finally it arrived my city. I was so happy that I can finally do my homework on my new laptop this holiday weekend. I got home from work and met a Door tag from FedEx stating they attempted to deliver my package but no one was home. It also stated another attempt will be made the next day so I asked my wife to please stay home and receive the package on my behalf.

    To my surprise, she called to tell me FedEx never showed up but said they tried to deliver the package and no one was home and left another Door tag. But the thing is someone was home and there was no Door tag but on their website, it stated the package was scanned attempted and there is a Door Tag number. I called FedEx customer care and they couldn't provide a solution. Now, they are saying I have to wait till 2nd of June before they will attempt to deliver the package again.

    This is so disappointing and the worst customer service I have experienced in recent time. You will think; with all their charges, they provide exceptional service but the truth is they lie about your package and they do very little to make sure you receive your item on time.

    Act as a Federal Express please, your automated response is not satisfactory. I'm unable to collect $4,905.00 because you mishandled my package. It is a very large sum for me and I cannot just forget about it. I spoke to numerous FedEx employees but not yet received professional response. This level of service is expected from some no-name bodega around the corner but not Federal Express. Your company switched tracking numbers and was unable to provide any information about the lost package from 3/25/16 until 4/21/16. Your company didn't collect signature upon delivery despite it was requested. As a result PayPal unable to verify merchandise receipt by seller (recipient) and issue refund of $4,905.00 to me. I didn't do anything wrong, why should I lose money?

    At this point please do what's right and either issue payment of $4,905.00 that otherwise would be paid by PayPal upon proper delivery of the package with signature confirmation or provide signature confirmation from the seller proving that he received package so we could reattempt to resubmit claim through PayPal.

Didn't even bothered to wait a few more seconds.

    The package had to be picked up. I got her best friend to pick it up at the nearby FedEx place. I hate that I had to bother people for it. They ruined my plan!

    I personally NEVER use FedEx but I am subjected to by companies who think FedEx actually knows how to deliver packages in a professional, courteous, timely manner. Oh this latest delivery really takes the cake. I ordered a very expensive item from a company who will remain nameless. I paid a ridiculous amount in shipping to said company. I did not know FedEx was their 'choice' delivery company. I receive an early notice the item had shipped (YAY!) because this particular item isn't suppose to ship for anyone until June. Lucky me, right! I decided to work from home on delivery. The tracking info said it would be delivered at the latest 8 pm.

    After work, decided to check the tracking info, it says they tried delivering at 2 pm. Well that can't be? I was home all day, didn't leave once. Sat in my living room, 10 feet from the front door. Never heard a knock. Opened the door a couple time because they've been sneaky in the past by running up and tacking one those post-its to the door without ringing the bell and running off back to their truck and peeling off like they stole something. Never seem folks so anxious NOT to do their job.

    At any rate, I called FedEx, waiting. Finally I get a customer service rep. Before I get into my conversation with this person, let me set the stage. I live at an address where 2 blocks away there is a kind, older gentleman who has the exact same address as I EXCEPT my address ends in Terrace and his ends in Avenue. On numerous occasions he has received my packages. He has be kind enough to call FedEx to have them come pick up the items. He even delivered once. Oh and one other time he was so mad that FedEx REFUSED to pick up an item he called the cops. It just so happened I was home that day. I'll never forget it because whoever think a police officer would deliver a package. But the officer did. Scared the crap out me because I didn't know if something happened to my Son or Husband.

    On the last botched delivery, I spoke to a nice woman at FedEx who specifically told me the (FedEx) had changed the street name and she did not know why. Okay now, back to my conversation this time. The guy asked for the tracking number, my name, and asked for the situation. I told him the tracking info said they tried to deliver...I was home all day...FedEx ALWAYS delivers to the wrong address. He asked for my address twice, I gave it both times. He says, "Well it says Avenue" I said "yes because your company changed it." He says, "No it came from the company you ordered the item from with Avenue." I tell him I have my invoice in my hand that shows my correct address.

    The customer service (HA) rep repeats what he already said. I said, "Well let me arrange to pick it up." He tells me "No because there are restrictions on the package." I told him "I already know it needs a signature, so why can't I sign for it at the FedEx location?" He again repeats his self about the restrictions. At that point I asked for a supervisor or manager. What do I get 'escalations' which is a glorified title to try and fix major situation without additional pay. I know because I worked in that type of an area for a different company. So the lady I get gives me the same song and dance. BUT she tells me the shipper is the one who changed my address.

    I called B.S. on that saying "Now why would this company do that when they're not even in the same state? How would they know if there's two address almost identical and two blocks apart." I told her what the last customer rep told me on a previous delivery FedEx botched. She says "No we don't do that." I called B.S. again and asked for her supervisor/manager. Again, I hear "No, there is no one else to speak with." Then she says "You'll have to have the shipper contact FedEx to change the address." At that point I hung up. I tried contacting the company but they are now closed. Something really needs to be done about FedEx. The company has terrible customer services all around. I know, I used to work in that area for many years and would have NEVER told a customer "No" as many times as they told me.

    I just moved from Canada to the US and I shipped 8 boxes through FedEx. I was shipping my personal belongings including crystal glasses and China, so I bought heavy duty boxes (extra strength, thicker cardboard) and used bubble wrap to individually wrap each piece. When the boxes arrived, it was raining. The person in charge of delivery was very disrespectful to me saying he was tired and the boxes were too heavy to be carried up one flight of stairs. He kept picking up boxes from one location and throwing them forcefully to the next. Boxes were in very bad shape when I first saw them in the truck but when they got up the stairs they looked so much worse. 2 of the boxes were completely ripped and things were falling out. When he dropped the last box on the floor, I was standing right there. A frame in the box broke and pieces of glass fell out of the box. He just looked at it and repeated that the box was heavy!

    Those 2 boxes were so damaged that I couldn't even bring them inside the apartment. I had to bring each item in individually and clean all the broken pieces of glasses. All my crystal wine glasses were broken along with some of China and other things.

    I ordered a package online towards the end of April, and it shipped on 4/26/16 via SmartPost. I still have not received it. FedEx has not provided an estimated arrival date, and online tracking information has stated that it has been in the same location, the city surrounding my college campus where the package is supposed to be delivered, for six days (four business days). When I called FedEx after the company I'd ordered from and my post office were both unable to help me, woman I spoke to was fairly rude and insinuated that there was nothing FedEx could do. When I mentioned that my PO box was on a college campus, she told me that the company I'd ordered from had not included the name of my university on the package. This simply isn't true. On the company's site, my shipping address includes the name of my college, and when the FedEx representative read back my address, it did include the name of the college.

    I guess she didn't recognize "--- State" as the name of a college. Instead of answering my questions, she repeated the same shipping information - that the package was "in transit" - instead of addressing the problem that my package had been listed as "in transit" in the same location near where it was supposed to be delivered for significant length of time. Additionally, she spoke in a relatively derogatory tone of voice and refused to put any responsibility on FedEx, telling me that I should contact the company I ordered from instead. I had already contacted them, along with my local post office, and they told me that I would need to contact FedEx. When I asked about the length of time that had passed while still "in transit", she said that SmartPost could take up to ten days. The shipping option that I selected stated that it would take 4-9 business days, not 10.

    This simply doesn't simply fair, and it shouldn't be this difficult to ask about a package from a company that specializes in shipping them. I'm giving them two stars because there's still a chance that I will be able to receive my package (here's hoping it isn't completely lost), and the second woman I spoke to when I called back later was actually helpful and transferred me to someone from SmartPost who is working to help me locate my package.

    FedEx, which unprofessionalism!!! I entered all my details to get updates on the delivery. I waited for delivery today, I was at the window to the second floor. I saw the FedEx van. I went down to get my merchandise, but the driver was already gone!!! I go to the track on the web and find a note asking me to contact FedEx to verify my address, among each other, I already got a call for this same delivery a few days ago where they asked me if the address provided was accurate and I confirmed everything correct. I quickly call the customer care, explain the situation. They make me wait, they say that the driver was already back in their warehouses and that he was wrong to read the address!!!

    They tell me I will deliver tomorrow, but today I was at home waiting for the package that's why I created a FedEx account, given my e-mail address, telephone number to be informed about the delivery, but tomorrow I have to lose another day waiting for them... In over the lady on the phone also had kindly understanding, kindness, professionalism and Education to shut the phone down... The next time I make purchases, I will verify that it is not FedEx courier!!!

    I am a frequent online shopper and have NEVER had efficient delivery outcomes with vendors that use FedEx and from now on, I will take the extra step to find out what carrier a vendor ships with and if it is FedEx, I will forfeit the purchase and make sure that the vendor knows why they are losing my business. The latest debacle started with a missed delivery on 4/20/2016. Using the door tag, I spoke to a telephone representative and arranged to have the delivery rescheduled for Monday, 4/25/2016. I arranged the day off and was home for the entire day waiting. I decided to track the status at about 5:00pm online. The information indicated that the delivery would be made by the close of business on Tuesday, 4/26. TYPICAL FedEx.. I telephoned FedEx and indeed found out that although there was a notation that the packages were to be redelivered today, Monday, 4/25, they never made it onto the truck.

    I rescheduled the delivery for this Thursday, 4/28/2016, but I really have no confidence that I will receive my packages as promised. One time, the delivery giant was so incompetent, my package ended up being delivered to New Jersey which I didn't find out until I had walked about fifteen (15) blocks to the nearest FedEx location to pick-up the package that their fleet could not manage to deliver properly. FedUp with FedEx.

    Ok. My package was supposed to come on a Thursday. It didn't arrive yet, it's monday. We made sure it was express shipping. I'm in New York City, and I'm supposed to go to Portugal on Wednesday. I need that package to renew my passport. They have no sense of emergency. All they were able to say was "no guarantee". My boyfriend talked to at least 20 representatives and supervisors. They have no direct communication with the drivers. It was no sense. All I want is my package and they are late and they messed up on the location. On Monday. Really?

    The truck is probably near me right now and I'm probably going to miss my flight because of their unorganized company, their lack of professionalism and they don't give a ** damn about their customers. I lost already a bunch of money because my flight was booked on Sunday. I changed it to Monday. Paid for it. They say they're open 24/7. **. Sunday they were closed. I might not go to Portugal if they mess up more, I'll lose my tickets. I'm tired of all this, paid more money for hotels in NYC to wait for that package, what a mess.

    In years past, I never had a problem with FedEx. Now, actually since 2014, FedEx will not deliver to my home address. I live in a rural area, and they have to cross a bridge to get to my house. However, every time I order something and it ship via FedEx, I want to pull my hair out because of the headache involved! The drivers always make three delivery attempts, in spite of the fact that they should know on the first attempt whether or not they can make the delivery. And inevitably, I get a notice saying I have to contact FedEx to provide an alternate address.

    UPS is my shipper of choice now because they never fail to deliver right to my door. And their trucks are the same size as the FedEx home delivery trucks, and yet, they manage to do it perfectly with no hiccups. I'm frustrated that I have to continue to pay for shipping with FedEx when they will not deliver to my address! I'm now to the point where I often check to see what shipper my merchant uses and if it's FedEx, I won't place an order. If you live in a rural community and are looking for home delivery service, FedEx probably will not deliver!

    If I could post with negative five stars, I so would. This company is absolutely ridiculous. For a year I have been getting a package with diapers and wipes from the honest company. FedEx has been the delivering corporation for the package every time, no issues if I was home or not. This one time I NEED the diapers, they are telling me I have to be home to sign for the box. I okayed the package to be left at the door after the first failed attempt, since I would be at work... Still no package the next day. Call again, once again, they tell me they cannot leave it without a signature even though I okayed for it to be left, since again, I had to work. Left for California for the weekend, expected it on Tuesday, as they told me they said they would leave it at the door, and once again, nothing Tuesday.

    Called customer service, they told me that they aren't sure why it wasn't left, but if I signed the door tag and put "leave at door", they would leave it on Wednesday. So, signed the door tag, put "leave at door". Wednesday, left for work, came home, again no ** package, but another door tag. Called AGAIN. Guy told me that with the door tag signed, it should have been left. He would send them a message saying to leave it, but to go ahead and sign the other door tag and put leave at door. Once again signed door tag, put "leave at door", put both tags back on the door. Thursday... Still... No... **... Package. Just got off the phone with some ** named Carlos. He told me that because it was an apartment building, they cannot leave the package.

    Where I live should NOT affect if I get my package or not. I okayed for it to be left. My neighbors are NOT going to steal ** diapers and if they do, they needed them more than I did. Carlos proceeded to tell me that I now have to drive to go get my package because it's been failed to deliver. Are you ** serious?! I asked if he worked, he said he was at work. I asked if he was supposed to get a package today while he was at work, how would he sign for it?? Let alone, if at work, how are you supposed to drive to a FedEx location to pick up a package?!

    I am sooo very disappointed with this company. I wish I was able to choose who my packages were delivered by, because every issue I have had with UPS they have made that extra effort to make their customer happy. FedEx on the other hand could care less - clearly. I hope this company finds better, helpful people, to provide customer service.

    I moved to Idaho a few months ago and each month I pay extra money once a month to have my shipment be here the next morning by 10:30am. This is the 2nd time I have used FedEx for this and it's an hour and a half after my package should've been here and it's not. I've called 2 times today and each time they say I should receive a phone call back, still no call. I have meds shipped to me every month and the only reason why I pay for priority shipping is because my insurance will only let me fill it the day before. I used UPS before I started using FedEx and they would get it to me an hour before the time it was supposed to be here.

    Oh and every time I've called to ask about my package they tell me its delayed due to bad weather. This is 2 months in a row bad weather had happened to fall on my shipment days. Then the 1st time I call today the girl tells me it was due to bad weather in Memphis, Tennessee. The 2nd lady told me it was due to bad weather in Fort Worth, Texas. Which is it?

    I had a package that I was expecting and was purposely working from home in order to be able to receive it. Early that afternoon, a neighbour brought up a door tag left by FedEx saying that they had attempted delivery. I was surprised as I had not heard my buzzer go off. I called FedEx to find out what had happened and I gave them the number on the door tag. They told me that the number on the door tag was not linked to a package, and that I should contact the company that sent the package to track it. This being unacceptable, I asked to talk to a manager. The woman I was then put in touch was at least willing and able to locate the package and driver. She then called the driver who claimed that he did press my buzzer - however this was not true. In my conversation with this woman I told her many times that the driver had not pressed the buzzer, that I had been home the whole time, and she repeatedly insisted that he had pressed buzzer.

    I asked to speak with someone else. Although a much better communicator, this third person was not able to do anything for me, and I had to have my package redirected and won't get it until the end of the week. I called the company I ordered from and luckily, because of so many complaints about FedEx, they are going to give customers the option of having their packages sent by Canada Post. I will definitely choose this option in the future.

    Every time I get a shipment sent to my house via FedEx never goes flawless. Brown never fails me and even our local post office beats Fedex by far. This time I was sent a package that required a signature. The driver came 4 times and 2 of those there were people in the house and he just softly knocked on the door and just slapped a door tag on the door and runs away. I know cause I can see home my home camera. I called and complaint but all the customer service was outsourced to India and they have no clue of what is going on. I asked from the first attempt to give me a location for me to pick up but they would refuse to provide one.

    After the 4 attempt the shipper contacted Fedex to try to release the package without a signature and was not allowed. We tried to change the address to my business address and also was not allowed. Finally they took the package of the truck and was awaiting for instruction for 2 days. I decided to go to their depot to pick it up and finally got my package. The team there were extremely busy solving other pending complaints and took mine as a routine complaint.

    After driving 37 miles the opposite way to pick this up I received 2 calls from Fedex to arrange for delivery. I already had the package and they were contacting me for delivery. This is definitely the last time I use this service, I rather buy at stores that don't deal with Fedex and if they can't use UPS then I won't buy. I was told that most of the delivery drivers are now subcontractors, and don't work directly for Fedex, that reflects the terrible service of the company, they just don't care about the customers.

I contacted FedEx and emailed pictures of the damage. They replied and said it was my fault for using tape.

Immediately phoned FedEx who informed me that the driver had come to the house, had spoken to me and had been told that there was no package (actually used my name).

    No driver came, no one spoke with me and there most certainly was a package - a critical one. I was told that it was too late to send out another driver and that they couldn't accommodate me. Although the package destination is 3 hours from here they told me that they could not pick up the package today and deliver it the same day.

    Package delivery. I had a package sent from US for research purposes on February 25, couriered so that I get the package in three to five business days. I have not yet received it. In March I got a call from Mumbai, that customs clearance takes place either in Mumbai or Ahmedabad. In Ahmedabad it came some time in March but I was told that unless I pay 5555 Rupees I cannot collect it (and it was not custom's duty). This was for late pickup and FedEx had a policy that if the package gets delivered irrespective of the responsibility the customer has to pay. I paid more in India than that in the original shipment from US.

    After paying Rs 5555 (approx 80 dollars) I am now told that FedEx will not deliver and that I have to have an agent pick up the package from customs. It looks like absolute extortion. My advice to anyone planning to use FedEx: Do not use it for international shipments to India and by extension for international shipments to USA.

So we start asking the other businesses in the suite it had gotten delivered there, nope, no one got our package.

"I'M SORRY, WHAT?!" A package that was to be signed for nonetheless, was left in the middle of my floor and would have not been found for a while had we not been told the carrier simply put it down somewhere.

    This is a place of business that this package was delivered to, not only that, but there are plenty of people walking around inside of here for the carrier to have asked what to do with the package and where to go. What made this experience even more irritating for me is that the carrier and the customer service representative seemed to believe that just leaving a package sitting somewhere randomly is okay. I will not be using FedEx to deliver packages for me, and if they were my only option for carrier, I'd cancel my order until a different carrier could bring it, like UPS.

Just kept telling me they won't be able to resend/deliver my package until Tuesday 3/29/16. I feel like my time was wasted and they expect me to waste another day. My time waiting on a package that should not have be late to begin with. And plus my phone number was there on the package and never got a phone call.

    Fed Ex should be ashamed of themselves being such a huge company and having the worst service in this country. There needs to be a class action suit filed against this company to make them be accountable for their lack of service costing consumers tons of money. I had placed an order for samples of veneer stone from a company located in Canada. The first attempt was on Monday March 21 and apparently the wind blew the door tag away. The second attempt was on Tuesday, I was home but no knock at the door. 2 door tags taped to the screen door. I called them and went online and signed for the package as well as signed the door tag and left taped to the INSIDE of the screen door.

    On Thursday, the driver took the signed door tag but did not leave the package. I called the 800# and they informed me it would be dispatched to be re-delivered. The local branch called me at home from a private #. He told me that he would have the driver deliver the package in a little while. I had my door open until 11PM and NO Fed Ex delivery. I called again on Friday letting them know that no delivery of my package and that now the sale is off as of midnight March 24 now costing me more than $900.00 more if I purchase the veneer stone. I wanted to see the sample before I ordered it. I have yet to receive the package that was promised to be delivered several hours ago. Fed Ex is an unreliable form of delivery and will NEVER use them.

    Walmart sent a package out to me 3 times and the strangest thing when it gets for delivery to my house the package always ends up sent back. So I ask the question, "When you put it on the truck for delivery is it damaged the..." Their answer was no. So I asked if the driver literally doing something to my package because he doesn't want to come to my area or the package is too heavy or what... But no reply. Use some other form of shipping if you can. They are really unreal.

    I am a first time customer of FedEx. Recently my best friend had a baby. I was so happy for my friend that I wanted to send some gifts. Previously I have always used USPS and even though it took a lot of time to deliver, I have never had any problems with them. As I wanted the box full of baby stuff (baby toys, stuffed animals, books, clothes) to be delivered on time, trusting FedEx's good name I shipped the box to Chittagong, Bangladesh for 321 dollars. Even though nothing in the box was expensive, still the accumulated cost of goods came up to 200 dollars. The box reached Bangladesh pretty fast but I noticed a few days delay in delivery. Then my friend tells me, a FedEx representative comes to her house asking for money to release the box. Here I need to point out, it's personally very embarrassing for me. It was supposed to be a surprise gift for my friend.

    If any tax money was needed FedEx should have contacted me and should have had a way to collect money from me and pay taxes. I was ready to pay any money needed at the point of shipment. But this is not even the whole story. My friend goes to the FedEx office to find out exactly how much money is needed. Guess what, they are asking for 375 dollars to release the box. I have to remind you, I already paid shipping cost 321 dollars, for a box that is valued at 200 dollars. How can tax be more than the value of goods or the shipping cost? When I call FedEx to complain, they urge me to take one of two options. First option, to abandon the shipment and let 321+200 dollars go down the drain. Or have the box shipped back to me by paying a shipping fee again of 321 dollar!!!

    At this point I am feeling like I am being punished for choosing FedEx. Good customer service would have been if my box were shipped back to me and my shipping cost reimbursed. But instead your representatives are making me feel like it's my fault that I relied on FedEx to safely deliver my package. Now the only request I have to you is please kindly stop shipping to Bangladesh. Why do you take up responsibility of a job that you cannot reliably do? Instead the customers are harassed and mistreated. If the FedEx center in Bangladesh is full of thieves then you should stop accepting shipment there.

    I trusted on your company's good name for the first time and I suffered a great deal. I am not rich, I am just an average middle class American. I understand profit is important to you. But if you at least did your job properly (that is delivering packages safely, reliably as you are supposed to) I wouldn't have had any complaints. I hope you improve your quality of service.

    A package was supposed to be delivered Friday (3/18). When it did not arrive, I checked the tracking and it stated the business was closed during delivery attempt at 6pm. We are a major storefront and were very much open with 20-30 employees present. Called, verified address, they apologized and stated it will be delivered Saturday. Same thing happened on Saturday. Called, gave them the store number for the driver to call when attempting delivery because despite having the correct address, he is not going to the right place.

    Tuesday... SAME THING and NO phone call! I called and screamed at them. I spoke with 3 different employees and they promised it will be delivered today. Luckily, I didn't my hopes were not high because once again... the package is not coming today. I just got off the phone and was told it will be here tomorrow. -_- I emailed the vendor to request all future packages to be sent through UPS. This is seriously the worst company I have ever dealt with.

    The package with my name and address was delivered to a store across the street. They are in a different address but still the delivery guy chose to do that. Now the store refuses to release it to me even with an ID and the FedEx is not willing to take responsibility. When I asked when will the delivery guy rectify his mistake their answer is "Do not know, sorry ma'am." Ok. When I ask whose mistake it is they say it's is the delivery guy's mistake not the FedEx's mistake. Great. Now they claim the sender is responsible for the package. Whose mistake is it? I guess it is mine and the sender's to have chosen FedEx. I better walk from TX to WI to get my parcel next time. Learn to accept your mistakes FedEx.

    I could understand this for certain areas of the country, but I live in St. Louis, and we have 2 FedEx Centers here, and one right across the river in Illinois, only 30 minutes from my house in St. Louis. And the route they give for shipping shows them flying into the St. Louis airport, checking at the FedEx terminal there, then they trucked it to the Illinois terminal, and then is was trucked off the Champaign Illinois, Evansville Indiana, Indianapolis, Lexington KY, and then flown back to St. Louis. It was due on Monday, and FedEx told me they changed the delivery date to the following Friday, even though I paid for expedited shipping. I worked in Logistics for decades, and I have seen some really strange things, but FedEx just really, and consistently takes the cake.

    I refuse to choose them if I have a choice. They really don't care, and just do whatever they want to. And don't get me started on their delivery people. UPS is bad, but FedEx makes UPS delivery drivers look like the saints of package delivery. FedEx sometimes appear to just do drive-by toss-outs, and I find packages in the bushes between my house and the street as if they just toss them from the window of their moving van. But most delivery drivers are contractors, so FedEx has an out when it comes to responsibility, of which I have been burned on a couple times in the past on too when filing a claim. Oh how I could go on. But the problem is, FedEx is large, very wealthy, and very well connected politically. So they can pretty much do whatever they want without repercussions for their actions. It's the American way..

    Unbelievable!! I am so irate right now. Just can't believe the lack of customer service from this company. I was working so had my 16 y.o. son at home to sign for important package I was expecting. Driver came with package but refused to let him sign for it. Really? What is that? Old enough to watch my 4 year old son but not responsible enough to sign for delivery in eyes of FedEx. Ok fine. I call to try and talk to a supervisor or anybody. Ring, ring, ring. No answer at plant. Ok I call 1 800 number. Give my tracking number. No help from them at all. They tell me they will redeliver in two days. I tell them "I don't care. I will track driver down and show ID and pick up myself." "No can't do that" they tell me. "Ok I will go to plant and pick up." "No can't do that either." Saturday 4 pm they are closed. But driver just left my house 30 mins ago. "Sorry we will redeliver Tuesday." What?? Let me tell you I was pissed.

    Now I work for the USPS and if a delivery is missed and a customer really needs a package they can call the office, supervisor can call driver to redeliver or meet driver with ID. No problem. FedEx? Be prepared to jump through hoops and get zero help. Horrible customer service. According to FedEx you need to be 21 to sign for a package. You're telling me you can join military and fight for this country, vote at 18 but can't sign for a FedEx package. Unbelievable!! Horrible!!

I said then you would do something if a child got hit and their response was, "WELL IF HE HITS A CHILD I GUESS HE WILL STOP THEN." Asked for supervisor and basically got the same response.

I pointed out that the original monitor box had already been shipped once, evidence the shipping label on the box. She said it needed to be in a plain box, otherwise someone would try to steal it. I went up the street to UPS shipping inside Staples. They took the monitor box without question and slapped a shipping label on it.

    So first I would like to say I have never written a negative review about a business. Being a business owner myself it always amazes me how the first thing someone does is get on the Internet and complain. I go to Florida every winter, a small island whose post office has small island hours. I needed something shipped to me that I needed as quickly as possible. My daughter took it to FedEx and had it overnighted and paid $100.00. They said it would be here by 12:00 the next day. While waiting for the delivery I saw my neighbor got a delivery 12:15. I asked the driver if she had something for my house. She told me no, I said I was supposed to receive mine by 12:00 today. She then told me that would be on a different truck. It would be express.

    I got the tracking number and looked it up. It was sitting in the delivery center even not 50 miles away. I called the facility and was told it was already closed and express wouldn't be delivering to the island until Monday! I said it was something I had to have today and had paid to have it shipped overnight. Was then told there was nothing that could be done. Owning a business myself I know if we would treat a customer only half this ridiculous we would be raked over the coals! This package was extremely urgent and I went to through the proper channels to get it the quickest way possible. Only to be told there is nothing that can be done. I do understand that nothing is guaranteed but in tracking the package it has Sat in Fort Myers since 6:00 this morning. Knowing that it was sent and paid for overnight and a truck had delivered to the neighbors house? If the express truck isn't coming to the island until Monday. Put it on the truck that is.

    I received a "2nd delivery attempt" notice, but was told it was the 3rd. Their driver claimed to have made a 2nd attempt on day of 1st attempt - but it was at a time I KNOW I was home (and there was NO door ticket for that alleged attempt, either). (And if he had made a 2nd attempt on 1st day, then why did today's notice say "2nd attempt"). I tried to sign up for their well-publicized delivery program where you can change delivery date, etc. After 10 minutes of typing, I receive an email that says I'm signed up. But the system still doesn't let me in and I get "error 1000" code. Turns out that means you have not lived at the address you use for at least a year, and that you must have lived there for a year to get deliveries there.

    Chat room person was useless. Phone rep. was nice, but her hands were tied. The best she could do was say they'd try to make another delivery attempt, on the date I said I'd take off work to be home, but she could make no guarantees. All this in the age of instantaneous, free-for-them digital communication. Oh, and they offered about 1001 times to have me pick it up. Their 3 pick up locations are miles away, and I'd have to rent a truck. Really, why does service get worse when they now have the technology to make it infinitely better?!
