    FedEx called on Friday, May 15, saying they will deliver my package the following day, but if I choose I can have it held in one of two locations for pick up. I requested to withhold the package for pick up. When I tried to pick it up on Sunday May 17, it was not there but was told they will resend it on the following Monday. (And one of the two reps at the site did not bother to help me at all since I did not have my tracking number. Thankfully one named ** was kind enough to find it for me). I waited for their call which came one week later saying they will deliver on Thursday, May 21. Checking on their online website, I learned that the package was returned to the shipper on that day!

    I called their office to ask why they returned the package to the shipper, they could not explain it. Then they told me to call the shipper to ship it once more. They were very unprofessional and did not know what was going on in their company. I reported it to the shipper and requested that my package be sent via ANOTHER COMPANY in order to get it on time!

    My wife was in the hospital for a brain bleed chemotherapy. Medicine was ordered from the hospital to be sent to my home and delivered directly to the front door. The delivery guy dropped it off at the management office and claimed he left a notice on my front door. I stay home all day with my wife while she was recovering on the couch. Nobody came to my door. There was no notice on my door. The delivery man told the office he left a notice on the door and he never came.

    The quality of FedEx is very poor. I don't use FedEx but when Walgreens orders medicine and uses FedEx and gives a specific instruction to deliver to the front door the drivers just drop it at the main office. It says specifically on the box keep in cool temperature open immediately. This medicine was ordered out of state overnight to be delivered On May 19th. I waited all day for that package and he never came to the front door. We had to wait the very next day to get the medicine out of the main office where he was not supposed to drop it.

    Twice within a five day span FedEx failed to deliver my packages after I paid $78 for FedEx First. I spoke with three customer service reps and did not even receive an apology. The second package they said will be delivered by 2:00 pm. They did not even call me! That's not how FedEx First is supposed to function. If I wanted it delivered that late then I would not have paid to have it delivered FIRST thing in the morning. Asking that much money and failing to deliver (twice) is absurd. They simply cannot maintain their delivery model. I hope they continue to lose money. They are a terrible company that lacks any type of customer service.

    I shipped a cell phone overnight from Houston to DFW on 5/01/2015 via FedEx. I was contacted by the recipient on 5/08/2015 for a status update of the package. I called FedEx once I tracked the package and was notified by FedEx rep that it had arrived in the Fort Worth distribution center but had not moved since 5/2/2015. FedEx representative told me that the package had come up missing from that facility and they would call me back in 2 hours. I did not receive a call back within the 2 hours. I called FedEx back on 5/12, 5/13, 5/14 and was told each time that someone would call me back in 2 hours, never received a call back each time. Finally, called on 5/19/2015, I was told they were no longer looking for my package and my only alternative was to file a claim. Way to take care of your customers FedEx! Rude, disinterested and unapologetic customer service.

    Amazing, how FedEx can't fit their truck under the power lines at the bottom of the hill when moving trucks, the postman, the neighbor's camper and UPS do it all the time. I don't appreciate people who are too lazy to do their jobs. We had to find out where our package was and retrieve it ourselves. To their credit, customer service was very helpful, and called back quickly with an answer.

    I have been tracking a package that is supposed to arrive tomorrow (Wednesday). FedEx tracking shows that is in Rawlins, Wyoming, and has been since 6:00 am Saturday (4 days ago). I called the FedEx number to see what was going on and the girl (I think she was in the Philippines) just read off the same info that I could see on the tracking page. Totally useless!

    I ordered a phone case from Otterbox and got two day shipping through FedEx. My package has been sitting that the facility in my town for THREE DAYS! That's not even counting the amount of time it took to get to my town! I called today to see if I could just come pick the damn thing up and the representative's response, word for word was: "Your package is currently in a box and that box can't be opened until tomorrow." What does that even mean? You can't open a simple box so that I can get my package?! I have also tried to go on their site and set some delivery instructions for whenever the damn thing actually gets delivered but their site won't allow it because it claims I don't know my own address or phone number. BOTTOM LINE: Avoid FedEx and ALL costs. If it costs extra to use someone else, DO IT! I might never get my package from these pieces of crap!

    Omg, I'm shocked at the lack of ability at a refused package and return to sender request. I'm sure I'm not the first that ordered something and then canceled order before it ever shipped or left the building and the sender could not stop the process. So they said as soon as the tracking number was issued, just contact FedEx and stop shipment. So I did for a solid week as I watched this package continue on its way to me. I've called FedEx at least a dozen times and am shocked at their total lack of ability to turn this package around and return to sender, even after it got to my sorting center here in town and was on the truck for delivery.

    They stopped the Wednesday delivery by contacting the driver and noted the package was refused and order cancelled. Thursday I rechecked my app and there was no activity. Fri. I figured the package was headed back to sender, oh no not even close, it's back on the truck scheduled for delivery AGAIN.

    So I call again and after they contacted the driver, they said it's been cancelled and will be sent back to sender. 5 minutes late here comes the FedEx truck and I run out and say don't even take it off the truck, this package has been refused and needs to go back to the sender, and the driver looks 'Duhh' and says, "uh ok".

    Then soon as I get back into my house and check the FedEx app--this little moron marks package as delivered, then he puts in an exception and says redelivered to correct address--wtf. On the phone for the umpteenth time, to make sure some other schmuck doesn't have possession of my prepaid item. I'm pissed now. FedEx you suck, and you still never changed the notation showing delivered when it was refused a second time. Now if the package never makes it back to sender, I'm on the hook for the cost. Never again will I attempt to do this or use FedEx if I have a choice, and I just remembered the family order of new cell phones that disappeared from the boxes you idiots handled a few years ago. Shocking with all the technology you use to track and route packages that this turned into such a mess.

    I had scheduled pick up for FedEx over the phone on May 12 before 7pm because my package must be delivered by 12 noon on May 14, no one showed up. Next day I called them again and they rescheduled pick up on May 13th for the package to be delivered on May 14. No one showed up. Same day I call them 2 times to make sure someone will be there to pick up before the business is closed. They said, "No worries. It will be picked up and delivered on time." I called them after our business closed and the guy on the phone said it was picked up 6:30 pm. Surprise... I told him I have the package right here in my hand. What he picked up and from where?

    And then he put me on hold and came back on phone saying they can be there before 8 pm if I want to wait outside or he can reschedule pick up for 14 May (the day packet was suppose to be delivered). I said I want to complain because if someone pays your company extra money to have their package delivered on or before specific time, they have a reason for it. Ha said manager is not in the office and will be calling me on 14th May. Now that made me take off from work and deliver my packet personally since it is very important for it to be there before noon. I will never use their service anymore. I am always big fan of USPS. Unfortunately the other party only recommend FEDEX.. Use FedEx only if you have extra time to make few phone calls and go through stress till it is delivered.. Bye bye FedEx.

    So, I pay extra for faster delivery, and get nothing. The driver states he was here at a time I know I was sitting here waiting for him. There is no evidence he was here, no tag. In the end, I was told I can drive from Cockeysville to Golden Ring to pick up. They wouldn't even re-route it, knowing I am going outta town the next day. They actually want me to pay extra for that, when I know for a fact they didn't try to deliver. I think they should've at least allowed me to send it to my work since they didn't get it here in the time I needed it done, do itty doesn't get returned.

    One simple mistype and everything goes south. My package had Ave. instead of St. I called everyday for 3 days trying to straighten this out. Got a different answer each day. First it was, they corrected it and it would be here tomorrow. Didn't show. Called again and was told, "The driver refused to take the package because he KNEW it was a bad address." Then got promised I would get a call that day to set up a delivery time. No Call. Today talked to two different people and finally got told to "contact the shipper" and immediately got hung up on.

    Even though I have received packages through FedEx numerous times, even though they had the same issue, I feel they are holding my package hostage. We've had this same problem over the past 8 years because the post office requires us to use Ave. instead of St. while we actually live on St. Ave. does not come up in a GPS. But UPS has NEVER missed a delivery here once, even if either is used. I feel like FedEx is encouraging their employees to not think or act for themselves. They're encouraging laziness. Their customer service sucks. They will outright lie to you.

    I follow ALL packages that have tracking so I know when to expect them. I've been home all day long and kept track of my package that FedEx was suppose to deliver today. I checked early this morning and it said the package was on FedEx vehicle to be delivered. Well, I waited. Usually they have 2 delivery times for my house. Either 9:30 am or around 5 pm. Well no package arrived at either time or any other time from FedEx. I checked the tracking again only to see a red flag stating "Customer not available or business closed" and they claim they left a door tag and even had a number.

    Well, they didn't do that either as they never came to my house! So I got back on the FedEx site and was ready to contact them, then the chat popped up. So I reported the driver that way. The lady I chatted with apologized and stated that was wrong and FedEx won't tolerate behavior like that. She wrote up a report and sent me a case number. Something will be done and the drivers will learn they won't get away with this.

    I ordered a printer from HP, was shipped through Fed-Ex. I got an email that my printer was delivered and had been left at my door but it wasn't, the time of delivery would have been when I was walking up the stairs, so I couldn't have missed the delivery. I called Customer Care to tell them that my package was delivered to the wrong building and the first thing that they said was did you call the shipper, I said "no you lost it". After screaming they sent me to the trace department and the first thing that they asked was "did you call the shipper?"

    Needless to say, that was my first experience - I felt that the only way that I was to get anywhere was to yell at those incompetent people. Finally they said that the delivery man would retrace his steps and find my package within 48 hours, the delivery guy never did look for my package because the guy who received my package turned it into the office 3 days after receiving it and said FedEx never came to his apartment. FedEx refused to take responsibility for losing my printer and in fact they called me 5 days later to ask me if I found my package.

    I was informed that my order would be delivered before 6:00 pm. I had to be present to sign for it. I stayed till 2:00 pm. FedEx leaves a sticker saying they will be by the next day. I paid someone to stay at my home to sign for the package. They did not come - they tell me tomorrow the next day. They can only tell me again before 6:00 pm. I known the first day is my fault. I can't change the package to another address. I can't even have someone to pick up the package at their hub if I give the name of the person who will pick it up. They changed the zip code that's why it was not delivered.

    I will never use FedEx again. I will pay more money for better service through UPS. If l order something and they use FedEx I will request UPS or the postal service and pay the difference. And if that company only uses FedEx I will not buy from that company. With all the technology today FedEx cannot tell you when they have package to be delivered. UPS can tell you within two hours if a package will be delivered at the address. Y'all deliver a package whenever y'all feel like getting into you.

    I have tried to cancel my order from the company I ordered from but they were already closed. As soon as they open I'm going to cancel my order and they lost a 700 dollar sale from poor delivery service and tomorrow I will order the same item from another company and I'll spend over $300 more for the same products to get better service.

    I had two bad experiences with them. 1. I was waiting for an important legal document and missed their first delivery. I stayed at home all day, waiting for it, with my friend. I didn't leave for a single second. No one came and they claimed "customer is not available." 2. I delivered a first priority package from New York to D.C. They promised to deliver the next morning and charged ~$40. They didn't deliver until two days later. It caused a huge inconvenience for me. After that they refused to refund the money because the delay is "out of their control." We called three times and were treated badly until we spoke to a supervisor and finally got the refund.

    I currently placed an order with a clothing company with standard shipping and my order was shipped in three separate packages. Two with FedEx, one with UPS. (I also ordered another package from another store that shipped UPS the same day). Both orders with UPS will be here tomorrow (4 business days from placing my order), whereas the FedEx order won't be here until Monday, which is only 6 business days. This may not seem a huge deal to some, but one of the items was for a birthday party this weekend, and now won't be here. EVERY order that has ever been shipped FedEx of mine has taken almost twice as long as anything I have shipped UPS. I just wish I had the option while shopping online to choose the shipping company.

    In addition, the tracking information is TERRIBLE. Since I had 4 orders to track with two different companies, I was able to really compare service. FedEx took two full days just to "create a shipping label", while my UPS order created the label and went halfway across the country. My FedEx orders are still states away, while my UPS was basically overnighted, despite the fact that I did not pay for expedited shipping. I have never had a positive experience with FedEx, only the minimum of what is expected of them.

    I am waiting on a package that has a piece for my truck so I can put it back together so I can get it back on the road. It took them 26 hours to send it from one facility to another that was only an hour and fifteen minutes away from each other. Now it is sitting at the destination facility. After numerous calls, they still say it is going to be delivered today but it still shows that it is sitting at the facility and not out for delivery. Every package that I get delivered from them always shows it being on the truck for delivery by 7:30 am.

    FedEx is consistently slow and you get a run around when you call them. I even offered to go to the destination facility to just pick it up myself, but they said that I wouldn't be able to pick it up until tomorrow. If I needed the damn thing tomorrow then I would not be wanting to pick it up today. It was supposed to be delivered yesterday but apparently a driver decided that they needed to take the long way around since it took them 26 hours to drive to a facility that is only an hour and fifteen minutes away. No one has an answer for why it took so long to get from one to the other. Have had several times they claim that they couldn't find my address even though they have been here dozens of times to deliver packages and had to wait an extra day to get my package. Even after giving thorough directions, the driver still had to call to find my address. So if you want it slow and days after it was supposed to be there then go FedEx.

    Had a last minute package that needed to arrive the next day. Scheduled a pick-up for FedEx standard overnight (to arrive by 8PM the next day). Tried tracking package all day to no avail - no updates, no delivery. Called FedEx today, furious that the item still hadn't arrived for what would qualify as two-day shipping. Was fed generic excuses and apologies and told my package would arrive before 8PM TODAY.

    Well, I needed the package for a business event happening at noon today, so it won't help at all unless it arrived before then. Tried changing delivery address hoping that package could go straight to event and was told there would be a fee for changing address (a fee for YOUR MISTAKE?!) and then was told that with change of addresses, the package wouldn't arrive until the next business day. So either way, there is no way to get this package to the event on time. You would think FedEx would have made this a priority delivery given that it was their fault. They blamed it on road closures... hmmm... funny that everyone in that office complex could get to and from work with no issues, but you couldn't get package there by 8PM and still not there today!

    Also, this isn't the first time that this has happened with FedEx. Had same issue a few weeks ago with nothing rectified. Oh and the best part? If I don't want to be refunded for the overnight shipping (since we didn't receive the package overnight), then I have to go through a lengthy claims process that will just take more time out of my day to deal with this unsympathetic goons.

Now it is supposed to be delivered today by 1030am and it still hasn't been delivered.

    Per their tracking info it is on the fedex truck out for delivery. I called to track it thru a human being and they are saying that they are trying to get in touch w/ the delivery driver to see when it will be delivered. Once the delivery driver makes a delivery he will check his message and call them and tell them when my package will be delivered. That was 45 minutes ago, so I guess it takes the delivery guy over an hour to delivery just one package. Something doesn't sound right, and I’m passed pissed off. Never will use fedex again.

    I brought my documents to the Madison Alabama FedEx location on Tuesday April 21 for PRIORITY International delivery. I filled out the form with the recipient address and phone number and gave it to the customer service person. I paid the $47 for shipping the document. I thought it was strange that she did not enter the information into the computer while I was there but as that is NOT my expertise I did not question. She gave me my receipt and copy of my shipping document - no computer copy just my handwritten copy. This was at 12:10 pm on April 21.

    At 00:53 on 4/22, the package showed up in Memphis. At 03:56 it departed Memphis on its way to Miami. At 06:39 it arrived in Miami...where it SAT until Thursday. We called FedEx on Thursday afternoon 4/23 and we were told that the package was in Cancun (the destination) even though that is not what showed on the tracking information that we had, and there was a problem with the address. We again gave the person the delivery address AND phone number of the recipient (which was also on the shipping label). They said it would be delivered that day. Yeah right!!!

    We called again on Thursday evening 4/22 at 10:30 pm...because NOW the tracking information showed the envelope (yes, it was just an envelope with legal documents...not a true package) was now in Merida Mexico...4 hours the opposite direction of Cancun. The person showed no record of it ever being in Cancun, although that is what we were told verbally over the phone, and they did not know why there was a customs clearance delay but they would get back to us. This gentleman's name was **.

    No-one ever called....we called AGAIN several times on Friday 4/24 (as the package was supposed to be there on Wednesday according to the customer service rep at the Madison Alabama office. We were told that they would call us back, that they had sent emails to the Merida location and were waiting to hear back from them. They then quoted us a phone number that we never heard of as a contact number. This was NOT our phone number off by a digit...it was a phone number not even CLOSE to our phone number. We gave them the correct phone number advising them that the number they had did not belong to us or anyone affiliated with this shipment.

    We placed one final call at 4:29 pm on Friday 4/24 and the rep again told us that they did not know what the problem was or why it was having a clearance delay and they would call us back. They AGAIN quoted to us the same erroneous phone number they did before. Again, we corrected them. No one called...and we contacted them AGAIN this morning 4/25 at 11:27 a.m. We were told to fax our shipping copy and receipt to ** at (and she gave us her fax number) and she said she would step the investigation up and now get her supervisor involved and the supervisor involved in Merida as well since they were not responding to their messages.

    I HAVE the phone numbers of FedEx in Merida and if I was fluent in Spanish I would call them myself...** once again PROMISED that we would hear back from her today as she would take care of this herself. She said there were 20 pages of notes in our file (I am sure there were since we have called repeatedly). Meanwhile, these legal documents have NOT been received by our attorney and we can NOT proceed with a real estate transaction. TIME WAS OF THE ESSENCE...and when time is of the essence FedEx says to use their international priority shipping.. What a joke...

So I waited, assuming he was scanning everything for my complex and then would actually deliver them, but he never came to the door. I filed a claim with FedEx almost immediately and got no updates all day. I called first thing this morning and customer service said she spoke with the woman working on the case. And she said she spoke with the driver but she was away from her desk so she didn't want to give misinformation on what he said.

    She finally called me back after a few hours and said that they would send someone out to do a "retrieval." And that they would redeliver the package to me by 3 pm today. I waited around all day... When I had heard nothing by 4:30, I called again and was bounced to 3 different people. Finally they told me that the driver that was sent to do the retrieval couldn't find the package and that it should be considered lost or stolen. I can't understand how a package can be delivered to a completely different house number, especially when FedEx customers pay a premium for better service. I will never trust FedEx again.

    So, I purchased a computer part from Newegg (Fantastic site btw) and they use FedEx to ship, this has actually happened twice mind you, but it is utterly stupid. So I paid for it to ship from City of Industry, California, up into Oregon, taking the 3 day shipping option. It shipped from there to Los Angeles, Cal, to Weed, Cali and this took 2 days. When the package departed from Weed, it was about 5:30 am (14hr drive to the place of delivery, but it at least should have gotten into state), and after I got home after a long day, I looked at the tracker and it had passed entirely through Oregon into northern Washington, near Kent.

    It is now 2 days later, and it is finally in my state, but it will be another day at least before it arrives bringing the total travel time to around 6 days (not counting day of purchase) which is 3 days late, mind you. I would not recommend them, they have done something similar except it was 4-7 day shipping and it arrived 1 day late in which I also bought a computer part from Newegg, shipped out of the same place, went to Kent, Washington and skipped Oregon... you can't trust them to ship things to you on time, at least out of California.

    They charged me 120$ and 60$ for international shipping and it was never a on time delivery. Always charge more saying priority. Heights is they can change the time recipient request to some other time. They don't ring the door bell and just update the status as requested a future delivery. If you can't deliver on time don't charge us more. Concentrate on delivering on time than just taking our money.

    Why in the day of rapid delivery service by other unnamed services is Fedex becoming slower. I have been watching the moving of a packaged ordered 4/21/15 from a company in California. The company stated on purchase order delivery between 4/23/15 and 5/4/15. Okay. But the package has been going from place to place and still has not left California. At that rate it looks like they are walking it.

    I am not one to make a complaint, but I have had a very negative experience with FedEx. The tracking number updated that the package had been delivered. I drive 40 minutes home to get the package only to find that it was not there. I asked around as I live in an apartment building. No one had saw a package either. After 2 hours and trying to get a hold of Fedex, someone finally got ahold of me the NEXT day. Then he explained he dropped the package off at the wrong address. I realize mistakes happen. But then as he said he would have it delivered to my correct address, I asked him to repeat the correct address to me and once again he said another different address. After this I did not hear back for 2 days. After 2 days the driver finally said he had my package and that I could meet him somewhere to pick it up as I told him I had recently moved. Not only was my experience a hassle but in my opinion, very unprofessional.

    I was relocating from one state to another. I shipped 5 packages from Georgia to Michigan. I had to cancel the shipments because I was staying in GA a little longer. I canceled ALL MY PACKAGES but Fedex only canceled one package. So the other 4 packages went to a address of a home no one was living in yet. Then while they were sending my other package back which was a 42" television, they broke it! Then updated my tracking information as "damaged in transit, return to sender". Mind you, I was the shipper in Georgia, but these morons sends it to some address in MICHIGAN.

    Luckily the person it was shipped to was an old neighbor and contacted my mother and told her she received a package with my name on it. I was upset. They finally picked the package up and sent it back to me. Then they say I need to file a claim because its broken. I did that. They came to pick the television up to inspect the tv for my claim and guess what? They shipped it to a different address in michigan again!! Instead of inspecting it.

    I am highly mad at this point. They go to michigan, pick it up, then inspects it. After they inspect it, it is sent back to me in GA. And ill be darn, the tv is completely shattered!! My screen is smashed, the tv was coming apart and split into. I call them to tell them and they say I have to file a whole new claim?! Are you kidding me!!! Then they say my other claim was closed because they did not hear from me. Fedex is a joke and the worst ever. I hope UPS or another company put them out of business soon!

    Never again will I have FedEx deliver my packages. I had ordered a table from Amazon. I was very excited to get it. I tracked my package and it said it was delivered...it was not delivered to my house. I thought maybe the website was messing up so I gave it 2 days. Still nothing. So I contacted FedEx...they told me it was delivered to the wrong address and they would contact me with more information once they found out.

    About an hour later a manager from FedEx called and said they found the address it was delivered to (which was a completely different town) and that they would go retrieve my package and have it to me the very next day. I waited and waited all day the next day...still nothing. The day after that I was obviously fed up. So once again I contacted FedEx. This time they tell me my package was placed on the wrong truck and it would be there the next day...still nothing. This time I had my husband call. They again gave us a big run around.

    Finally about a week and a half after the whole thing started our package was delivered. Keep in mind the customer service was very rude through the entire process. They seemed very annoyed with me. Not once did I get an apology. I normally don't write reviews but in this case I figured I would take the time to. I wouldn't have been so upset/aggravated if I was expecting something that I didn't spend a lot of money on. And it is very discouraging that I did not even get an apology.

    I receive a lot of deliveries through FedEx, more than 50 last year alone and at least that many from each of two major competitors of theirs. The only time I have had delays that were created by the carrier (not weather, not strikes, not mislabeled, etc.) were two instances with FedEx ground. Today's instance; ordered two bulky items from online retailer. Both shipped FedEx Ground. One delivered yesterday. Today I was told the other package was missing. An apartment number or street name.

    Fair enough, except when I call they read back my exact address. The same address they delivered to yesterday. Not an apartment, not a controlled access community, not an issue with a street name. Now they will attempt a Saturday delivery but no guarantee. This is exactly what happened the first time I had an issue. Different home at the time, same false claim by FedEx Ground. Also a bulky package later delivered with no change to address information despite claim that the address was bad.

They tried to claim that they never touched the package and that it goes from post office to post office and they only ship it from post office to post office. Okay, why does it have a FedEx tracking number? Why is the package currently sitting in a FedEx facility? The shipper didn't drop the package off at a post office.

    We have two doors to our house. Number One is covered with a porch roof, and has some steps up. It is on the side of the house and on the driveway. Number Two faces the street, has a small stoop with junk on it, has no porch or roof over it and is NOT on the driveway. We never use Two, it enters the house in a room we do not use. On Two's door, we have posted a clear black on white sign in 3" high letters that reads "Leave No Packages... Not The Front Door". One is about twenty feet around the corner from Two. For the past five of six days, Two was blocked by a tarp covered in dirt from construction work.

    Today, I was out working in my yard (see above) when I saw an object on the stoop of Two. I found two packages, and a FedEx "door tag" stuck on the door, above the sign! I took the packages in and noted the date on the tag was 13 April, 3 days ago! I called up FedEx (phone # on tag) and told the clerk the above. He apologized and said the driver would be tracked down and "counseled". I went back outside, and then found another tag in the bushes by Two, dated 10 April, 6 days ago! I knew rain was predicted soon, and went inside and called FedEx again, told the same story to another clerk who took down my phone number and said a supervisor would call when they had talked to the driver. Implication: driver can't read English OR is too lazy to walk around to the "used" door OR driver is too blind or frazzled to SEE a plain, legible sign...

    Since packages were addressed to wife, I waited for her to arrive and told her the story. She was (almost) livid, the first package was an autographed art print from a museum. It was damp inside, the print was not in good condition. The second package was a souvenir umbrella, not a concern. She called FedEx and complained. We were told we have no claim, that the museum must take back the item and THEY must make the claim against FedEx for damage. We must send/hand-deliver the item BACK to the museum? We will be telling the Brandywine Valley Museum to NEVER use FedEx for their deliveries.

The representative told me to contact the store I ordered it from and report it missing and they will send me another one. Huh??? That's it! This made me think that they have been taking packages but still marking them as delivered because they know which companies will replace your order.

    Recently I had some official documents sent to me from a government agency. Those too never made it. The tracking information shows my package as being delivered but I don't believe they ever were. I have been waiting almost two years for my documents and all FedEx have to say was sorry.

    While I have seen FedEx work with incredible speed and deftness, my latest experience has been beyond incompetence, lip service, and I suspect even out and out lying. I am a small business owner and had an expensive air freight shipment sent with an estimated delivery date 8 days later - pretty normal. They delivery date was pushed back three times. After about 3 days I could see the shipment was sitting in an airport in France; I called customer service and had a trace agent assigned to make sure it moved again. Today it is 12 days after the shipment was picked up by FedEx and it is still sitting in France. They have removed the estimated date of delivery and there is no date now. Starting on day 3 I have called FedEx daily and been told daily it had a trace agent assigned and it would go out on a plane to the US "tonight". It is still sitting in France.

    On the delivery, which was 10 days from pick up in the UK, it did not arrive and my second shipment picked up a week after the first one was assigned a trace agent. That trace agent is the only person among at least a dozen people I spoke with that seemed to have any idea how to make anything happen. The second shipment is in the US and is now in my state... 6 days after pick up. On Friday, I requested a Saturday delivery of this shipment to make up for the one stuck in France. The tracking screen showed it had arrived in the US and was in Nashville, TN. I was later called back and said that was in error, that the shipment was really still in the UK and because it had precleared customs was showing as in the US. So this was the lie. It was in the US, because it made it to Oakland CA the next morning. All FedEx shipments from Europe land in TN first to clear customs. I have done this many times.

    Perhaps FedEx took a major downward slide. I currently have no idea when I will get my first shipment. In France it sits!!! I have had people tell me how well they do their job, that it always delivers on time, and heard "it will get on a plane tonight" so many times. No one but the second shipment's trace agent showed any ownership or sense of personal responsibility. The others hid behind. They were on the "leadership team", they were in the "CAP department", but no matter what no one really cared!!! I will be expecting a full refund and have sent FedEx bills for orders I filled from my competitors at full retail plus shipping.

    We have an eBay-associated business and have noticed two things. Even though gas has gone down, their costs have increased significantly to the point that we are now using the post office on 4 out of 5 orders. We had thought that FedEx's quarterly adjustments in prices were supposed to include the cost of fuel, in which case the costs should have come down. It's interesting to see that there are far fewer packages waiting to be picked up at their drop off locations. So it looks like others are using FedEx less frequently as well. Secondly, the breakage rate when using FedEx has increased significantly in recent months, when nothing about the type of items being delivered has changed. More customers are complaining and we are having to give refunds to customers more frequently (and filing with FedEx more often for reimbursement). We were wondering if this might be due to their turning their employees into independent contractors?

This morning I looked up the tracking number and it showed that it was in transit to GA from TN and that I would receive my package on 04/03/ by noon. I called FedEx to make sure everything was going smoothly and was informed that it was stuck in customs and the FedEx agent asked me what was in the package. She told me that she would call me with more information. I called again to get an update and was notified that the Fedex plane from Dubai left late and caused the delay (nothing to do with customs). Between my email notifications (saying that the package would arrive on time) and the two different FedEx agents I spoke to- I am confused and worried. The worst part of all of this was that no one from FedEx thought to notify me of all of this and I had to call myself.

    When I explained to one of the FedEx agents that the package contained my wedding dress, she responded, "Well, you are not getting married this weekend, are you"? It does not matter when my wedding is, what matters is that I receive my package on time and that FedEx notifies me of the issue instead of giving me the run around and excuses. To top it off, FedEx never corrected the zip code, which will make the delay even longer. I am very disappointed in FedEx- they have made this very stressful for me. All I want is the truth as to why there is a delay in my wedding dress arriving and a solution. As of now, they cannot tell me when my package is arriving.

    I went to fedex to deliver my iMac computer in a 2 day delivery contract. The package was wrapped with many layers of bubble wrap in the box. I needed the computer to work on business related matter and had told this to the fedex office. The charge for delivery was over $250. The package was delivered 3 days late and the screen of the computer was shattered in a complicated manner consistent with very rough treatment during the transit. I paid about $840 out of pocket to fix the screen.

    I contacted fedex and explained what happened and was told they would only offer $100. I explained that this was an insult especially given I had paid for a 2 day delivery that was 3 days late and the screen was cracked due to their negligence. The person who took the complaint explained somebody would be getting back in touch with me. This never happened. I called 2 weeks later to find FedEx had closed the case and sent out a check for $100 that I never received. How can we tolerate this kind of behavior from a corporation. This is beyond outrageous and I intend to pursue legal action regardless of what it cost me.

    I have been using Fedex on Blossom Hill and Santa Teresa, San Jose for all my personal needs. I was told today by one of their employees that I will need to pay an additional $39.00, as I have so many emails that need to be printed. I was also offered 2 other options. I asked the employee if this was an order from their boss. The FedEx employee said that it was. I told the Fedex employee that I will file a complaint. Their response was, that they want my business and want to work with me, but.... I have too many emails that need to be printed. Which doesn't even make sense. I also asked if every Fedex will be doing the same thing. The Fedex Employee said, "yes". I will be taking my business elsewhere.

    We have tried since last Friday to effect a delivery from FedEx. We used internet, and called their customer service number several times, each time we hear the audio recording that FedEx is devoted to ensuring that your delivery is "your way." Unfortunately, this company is mired in myths and falsehoods supporting this goal. We were promised delivery in the evening - false. We were told we couldn't re-direct the shipment address - untrue. We were told that they couldn't leave it at a FEDEX location until after all three delivery attempts were made - untrue. We were told we could sign the ticket and the delivery would be allowed - untrue. We were told the delivery hub would call us and let us know when the delivery would occur - untrue. We were also told delivery would be at 8 am - also untrue (although the tracking data indicated that the package was on the truck at 7:34 am)..

    After an exhaustive discussion and wait with their Customer Service rep - I was informed that everything we were told was a myth, and that they could not promise any kind of delivery range, or redirect the package or help us receive the package in a timely manner. Basically, we were held hostage. The best they could offer was that the delivery might occur by mid day - now I'm giving up half of my work day to get this package - and if it didn't arrive all I could do was call their 1-800 number again and they would direct me to the local hub manager. For a company that succeeds in business by claiming to be in the customer's corner and then completely ignores the concept - I can only say I am no longer surprised. Frustrated? You bet. Appalled by their sincere lack of customer service and caring - completely. Will I ever use or recommend FedEx again? No, never!

I signed up for the Delivery Manager and even asked them to leave the package at my front door. They ignored the instructions and still delivered it to the front office. When I contacted FedEx about the issue, I was told that they deliver to addresses not people. Last time I checked, the front office is not the same address as my apartment.

    My family has used FedEx many times and have never had any issues until now. A delivery was suppose to be made on a Tuesday and when they delivered, no one was home and it required a signature so they took it back, fair enough. But when the following day came for them to deliver, they had signed consent to leave it on the door. This time someone was at home all day waiting for them to deliver yet no one ever did. The status of our package said it was delivered that morning, but when it was checked, there was no package. When we called to ask questions and see what was needed to be done, all they constantly repeated was "based on your status your package was delivered". As many times as I said there was no package delivered, they decided to tell us to go ask neighbors if they got our delivery by accident. Yet it has our address on the box, why was it so hard to deliver to the right house?

    Even one of the ladies that was talked to on the phone suggested that it might have been stolen by the delivery man, seeing he might've known what it was. That right there was when I decided to go off. $300+ was spent on this and no one can tell me where it just magically disappeared to. They've yet to get back to me on my status when I requested a investigation. Once I get all the information I need, I will not be using FedEx again.

    This morning I received a package from a financial institution in the morning around 10am. I requested for it to be delivered to my home instead of my office because I was sick and would be home this week! The driver rang the door bell and my senior citizen mother was home with me and could receive the package. She had to get herself together to get to the door and the driver started to bang on the door like as if she was a police officer or something which startled my mother. She answered the door and the FedEx driver interrogated my mother on why it took her so long to answer the door? If the door bell is working and if it isn't working and why a sign is not up to say it is not working? Which my mother never said that the door bell was not in working order? Etc.

    So my mother responded and advised that it is early in the morning and she had to get herself together before answering the door. She proceeded to argue with my mother for about 10 mins and then shoved the package in her hand and demanded for her to sign and just walked off. I contacted customer service to log a complaint to have the customer service rep try to advise that perhaps the recipient was having a bad day or the driver was having a bad day? My mother is a very friendly lady and I personally don't care if the driver is having a bad day! You deal with FedEx clients with respect not yell at them like they are beneath you or they are your child. I was thoroughly upset about that too.

    I advised to speak with a manager since it seemed that I will not get anywhere with him and advised that if it was him, he would not log a complaint on that? Really? So he piped down and advised if I want to log a complaint and get a follow up call from the manager? Yes, isn't that what I requested prior? Really FedEx? Customer service rep's "matter of fact" attitude annoyed me as well! That is not how you calm clients down with ridiculous questions and expressing what he would do in my situation. The point is, it is simply my situation not yours! All I want you to do is take my concern, send it to the appropriate place and have a manager contact me for further discussion! SIMPLE! I also contacted my colleague at the financial institution that sent the package and advised them of FedEx actions and they will be getting a call from them because they use them for service and also paid them as well.

    I was appalled at the treatment my mother got from the driver and thoroughly upset at the way the customer service rep dealt with my concern! I never experienced this type of service with UPS or any other carrier! I would have rather the driver hand my mother the notice and walk off then to accuse her of maliciously not getting to the door on time or asking her ten thousand questions that are of no concern to her (yes the driver was a female)! Absolutely ridiculous behaviour! Customer service is essential for businesses so you deal with clients properly. I am not an advocate of firing people because in this day and time, employment is important! If she does not like her job place her into another place within FedEx that does not deal with people personally because she has no customer service etiquette! I hope someone from management deals with this and follows up with me on this as well. ~Disgruntled customer!

It is now Wednesday, and I've been alerted that my 0.2 lb package will be delivered on Thursday. How does it take FedEx 4 Business days to deliver a package 3 and a half hour away?

I left work early to make it to the FedEx office but my package never arrived. Why? Why? I don't understand why you would not notify me earlier via phone call, email or text so that I would know not to take the trip all the way to that specific office. But no, I never received any information but what was on the tracking information that the package was being delivered. No information was conveyed to me at all until I read on the tracking information at 6 am that the package will not be delivered until Monday 3/23 but know it states 3/24/15.

    Earlier today, I called the FedEx representative and he told me that he didn't know what to tell me and didn't know when the package would be delivered as he kept stating, "We do apologize for the inconvenience". Furthermore, it's totally irresponsible to indicate on the tracking information that customer was not available because I was available to pick up the package at the FedEx station/office.

This package contains/contained a brand-new iPad Air, and it was supposed to have gotten here by 4:30 p.m yesterday. I had to sign for it, and, therefore, had to wait around all day to accept delivery. From the time it was mailed to the time it arrived in Atlanta via Memphis, Tennessee I tracked it and everything seemed ok.

    After it was not delivered by 4:30 p.m, I got on the phone to make inquiries. Eventually, I got someone to inform me that 'it missed the morning sort' and would be sorted in the afternoon for delivery by Saturday. Saturday morning I continued to track it, and noticed the tracking information was change. The 4:30 delivery time was removed along with the 2-day delivery mode of shipment. These were replaced by 'not available.' Around 3:00 p.m today, my son called FedEx to get some information, and was told that they would find where it is and effect delivery within 2 hours. It's now after 7, and we have not heard from FedEx. The impression I get is that they will not accept accountability, and will shroud the truth with hardly believable excuses.

Finally, 2.5 months later, the package gets to my Daughter. To my astonishment, I receive a bill for $41.36 to cover the shipping charges from Memphis to Germantown.

    I had actually expected an apology from Fed Ex concerning this matter. Not to mention I paid $22 to ship from CO Springs (14 hours away), and they want to charge me another $41 to ship from 10 miles away. I refuse to make this payment, will NEVER use Fed Ex again, and will ensure that my Company will not use their service, nor my associates.

    My name is ** and my shipment that was sent through your company was mistreated resulting in the death of the animal that was being shipped. I ordered an Asian Water Monitor for the amount of 149.90 including shipping costs from the Florida Herps pet and supplies company. I paid for 24 hour live animal shipping and the shipment was promised on your website to arrive by 10 am on 03-04-2015. The shipment was late so I called your company they said it would be just an hour late.

    Then that hour passed and I called again they said that a truck the a couple days before with other packages not mine was late so they were delivering those. I was disgusted with that answer because your company should prioritize live animals to go out. I would not have been worried if it was makeup I ordered. Also I paid for the priority shipping so I had to remind them of that and with that they promised within the next hour and they would contact the driver.

    After waiting that hour I of course called another time and then again had to remind another representative it was a live animal when there legally should be a notice of that already when they did not see one. Again promised a different time when the shipment arrived 5 hours late. Now a lizard is shipped with a heat pack to keep them warm for the journey and besides the fact that it is a live animal the 24 hour shipping is meant for that heat pack. My of course could not withstand the circumstances of being pushed aside for 5 extra hours and not prioritizing a live animal or marking the box correctly. Well as you can tell I opened my package to a dead animal which was a terrible experience in itself.

    So I called your claims department to make one and had multiple representatives promise the claim would be accepted on a recorded line (feel free to pull the calls). They said all I would have to do is call the shipper and have them finish the claim as it was clearly FedEx at fault and not the shipper or me. So I contacted the shipper who proceeded to let me know that he has a contract with your company stating that he is not allowed to file a claim. Now I understand that company having a contract but FedEx had already promised acceptance of fault when they should be able to see that information. So legally FedEx would just have to approve a one time claim for that company so he is not breaking his contract.

    So I called FedEx again attempting to get someone knowledgeable and explained the situation once again to many people who once again admitted fault until I got to someone that said he would email and call the company letting them know to do the claim but he said he did not see a contract. So once again that was not helpful because your employees could not seem to understand what a contract is so a random telecommunications employee can not just tell the company they can finish the claim. Also I contacted the company again and they never received anything this rep promised and he never contacted me again as promised.

    In conclusion I have been a previous happy customer of FedEx but now I feel as though this company does not care about how the animals they ship are handled and in turn do not care about compensating their customers for mistakes. In my opinion if this was a mistake instead of carelessness the company would be working harder to help fix it and reimburse my purchase or fulfill my claim for a new reptile. I have spoke to and dealt with many people that do not keep promises or seem to know what they are doing so I hope and pray that you can help rectify the situation so I do not have to continue on this path to someone else. I would love to be finished with this but I will also not just put up with a company not caring that much. Thank you for looking over my situation and I look forward to your response and resolution.

    Recently, my dog was diagnosed with bladder cancer. I ordered some bladder support supplements he desperately needs and requested one day shipping. It went out for delivery on the scheduled date, great - awesome (Saturday, March 14). Then, around 3pm I went to check the status of the tracking and it was listed as held by carrier. There was no further information, then on Monday morning there was a message that said that my address could not be found and I needed to contact the carrier. Also, the held by carrier timestamp was updated to 7 instead of the original 3pm.

    I called FedEx (Monday, March 16) and they said they don't deliver on Monday's and that the driver could not find the address. I find this absurd. We've never had a problem before, the street and house are clearly marked. The customer service representative kept asking for "directions" and I curtly replied "directions from where?" and she just said the name of the city. I'm sorry but, how can I give directions from a 'city' to a residential address? Where in the city?? "You tell me where you are, I'll tell you where you need to go" but at this point I was frustrated and exasperated. How do the drivers not have GPS?

    Today (March 17), I logged the tracking to make sure that the package was en route, because - it is important! Nope, not in route, it simply says that it re-arrived at the same facility where it was being held. So, I called customer service. Talked to a very nice woman who said she would contact the facility and she did. She took some information from me and said that the woman at my local facility would check it out and call back within in an hour.

    It's now been 4 hours and I haven't heard a word. The package has not gone out and my dog is still without the supplements he needs. I re-ordered because I don't know if or when I will ever see this package. I chose two day shipping so I am hoping it goes UPS or USPS. I will never willingly ship with FedEx again. It has been a very disappointing few days to add on to an already stressful situation.

After 3 days not hearing back I called to get a status of claim and talked with ** who curtly told me they had 5-7 days to look at it. I felt like I was being brushed off. The following day I attempted to call her twice and was told the second time she would not be available at all that day and she was the only one that could help with this claim. In the meantime we delayed a planned trip in order to be around for them to come by.

    On the 7th day I called and again and was told she was not available but this time anther person in claims did give me the information that the claim had been denied. I received a letter that same afternoon denying the claim and it was dated on the 5th of March which was the day before I was brushed off and not given any information. This info would have saved me delaying MY vacation trip and making my decision to return the item if they could have just kindly told me on the phone earlier instead of putting me off. Also the letter claimed they were denying it after inspecting the package, but this is not true because they DID NOT come to look at it. The letter I received also does not include a personal contact or phone number and not signed by anyone. This to me is poor consumer relations. I would have much rather talked to someone about this than writing a complaint.

Once I was told it was already in CA and would be delivered Monday morning the 9th by 10:30 at the latest. All this time, I now know it was still sitting in a container in Memphis.

    On Monday afternoon March 9th I asked to have the package of reports sent directly to the Amangiri Resort in Utah where the CEO's retreat was being held since it was now too late to be reviewed on the phone with me and hand carried to the retreat from company headquarters in Los Gatos as planned. I was promised unequivocally that the package would arrive at the retreat location in Utah at 8 am on Wednesday, March 11th in advance of the 9 am meeting. It then continued to sit in Memphis beyond the window for making that happen. When that promise failed, I asked to please revert to the original company headquarters address in Los Gatos since the retreat was now over. It was incorrectly addressed twice and is now in the process of being recovered from the wrong state.

    All along the way I have sat on hold for countless hours, been promised call-backs from a "station manager" 4 times that never happened, been transferred from person-to-person to explain the situation over and over. I've been a FedEx customer for years, using FedEx for international conference materials. I had a bad experience with two personal packages being delivered late for Christmas in Dec 2014 - one to the UK and the other to Germany. I was told bad weather in Kentucky messed them up. Ok, it was the holidays, so I cut some slack.

    This most recent ineptitude is inexcusable - 13 days to deliver a small priority overnight parcel - and wasted hours and stress trying to make it happen on the phone with a company where the left hand doesn't seem to know what the right hand is doing. I could have driven it there from South Carolina by now. FedEx has made me look very bad to a very important client. My trust in FedEx is broken. Though I've been a FedEx customer since 1998, I think it's time to explore other options.

    Our small business server went down because one of the hard drives failed. I called Dell and they sent a new one to be installed by one of their service techs. The next day the hard drive was on the local truck ready to be delivered at 8:20 AM. The representative at FedEx said that it was had an "on time" delivery of before 3:00 PM. At 3:45 I called FedEx. The representative said it was because of the weather. What weather? It was six-five degrees and clear! So, at 5:00 PM when the package had not arrived I sat by the door because our normal office hours are until 5:00. The door is made of glass so there is absolutely no way that anyone could have approached it without me seeing them.

    At 6:00 PM I go back to my office to check the tracking and find that the driver said that he attempted to deliver it but no one was here. The door was even unlocked. So, even if I had been abducted by aliens and given a false memory, there is no reason that the package couldn't be delivered. In fact, we had people at the business for over twenty-four hours and received a UPS package after 7:00 PM. I am FED UP with FEDEX. I would complain about their customer service but they have none. However, I am thinking about sending in my tax payments with FedEx. I don't really want those to get there on time.

    I understand a delivery date is estimated and can change because of a number of reasons. But an arrival date should never change. I have a package that since Sat., March 7th, 2015 tracking said it was in Martinsburg WV. I forget what it said the arrival time was, that it arrived Sat. there. I believe that is the change over hub to USPS. Expected Delivery was today, the 10th of March 2015.

    Today I recheck tracking and delivery date is now March 12th. No big deal. But I wanted the exact time it has been sitting in WV and the WV arrival date. Now says It arrived in WV 12 hours ago at 3:59 am on March 10th. Why did that number change? I can only come up with two possible reasons: 1 -- They changed it to cover butt for how long it has sat in one location. 2 -- Original date was when they (FedEx) dropped it there, and new date is the date USPS was notified it is there and old date deleted during change-over. Very confusing system for people or a really bad dishonest service.

    This is my second package I have seen this happen to now. I have also noticed these changes always occur on the expected delivery date. So that makes me think FEDEX is actually telling us the drop-off to USPS date as the expected date, knowing full well it will take days after for item to arrive. Seems like a Bait and Switch to me but with time instead of money. Based on how my local shipping has worked in the past, Always add 3-4 business days onto expected date. I now know my package has no chance to arrive by the weekend for when it was planned to be used with my children.

    On Wednesday, March 4, 2015, I shipped via two-day FedEx Ground (for almost $20) a $900 Canon camera from my home in Sacramento, CA to Costa Mesa, CA to a Canon Service Center for repair. On Friday, I checked the FedEx website to track the package, and the status had not been updated since it shipped. I sent a message via the email form on the FedEx website, and heard nothing except the automated response ("We hope to be back with you shortly").

    On Saturday, I called FedEx to find out what was going on and was on hold for 20 minutes before I was disconnected. By 10am Monday I had still heard nothing. I called FedEx at 10:15 and was told I would receive a call from a tracing agent in two hours. At 10:39, I received an email informing me that they received my email (the one from Saturday) and that "We sent a message to the delivery terminal and advised them of your concern." By 2pm I had still heard nothing, and the package's status on the website was unchanged. I called back and found out that FedEx had the wrong phone number. I was put through to the assigned tracing agent, who took details from me about the camera. When I asked if they had lost my package she said that she didn't know, and that sometimes the tags come off of packages and they don't know what to do with them.

    Now I'm being told, nearly 24 hours later, that it will take another 24 hours for them to look for the package. I sent this email: "I would like to speak with someone higher up the food chain. When I speak with the barely-civil representatives on the phone, they give me vague or no information. I can't understand why a company whose entire business is tracking and delivering packages did not realize themselves that they had a 2-day shipment that had not been delivered. If I hadn't been tracking this, would you ever realized, let alone done anything about this lost package? I really need to communicate with someone who can answer these and other questions, rather than give me non-answers. Please provide me with the contact information for such individuals."

    I was told that my package would be delivered on march 7, 2015. On the website it says the package has left Kearns Ville North Carolina. It's still there and why I asked it's because of the weather in tenn. I've sat here at home all day only to find out I won't get it till maybe Tuesday. This is ridiculous. FedEx supposedly handles tons of freight a day but if it rains they can't pull it off. My package is in north carolina and I'm in ga and the supposedly bad weather was in tenn. I need this part to finish my truck. I have a very narrow window to get my vehicle prepped and ready to be painted. I'm in school so I don't have a lot of boot time.

    I graduate in May and time will run out in roughly 2 and a half weeks and then I can't paint. Now this is really making me mad. I don't understand it. If I was able to order the part and the company I bought it from was able to get it to north carolina while the supposedly bad weather going on in tenn why can't you get it to me on the day you said you were delivering on. I could have been looking for another part but I was at home all day waiting on the delivery that wasn't gonna show up.

    I ordered a package from FedEx last Saturday. It was scheduled to arrive on this past Thursday. Unfortunately I wasn't home. They left a note saying they would try again on Friday. I knew I wouldn't be home so I called them and requested that it would be held at the local FedEx office. They confirmed it would be delivered at the office. On Saturday I called ahead to make sure it was there and they said that it wasn't. They next said it was out for delivery again. Even though that was not I requested I was home anyway.

    Throughout Saturday I kept waiting, I knew that I had to sign for it and that was perfect because I was home. Next it has a been several hours and I was starting to wonder where it was. I went outside to see if they put it there guessing they didn't need my signature anymore. That was not the case, I went outside only to find a note that said customer not present. I was furious, I had been waiting all that time at my house and they didn't ring the door bell or knock on the door. Additionally both of my 2 cars were there which would hopefully indicate that someone is home.

    I was very disappointed so I called Fedex and they said they can't call or track delivery men. I can understand that but it shouldn't of come to this point at all. I asked for it again to be held at a local office so the problem wouldn't arise for a second time. They said it wouldn't be available today. They next told me it would be available this upcoming Tuesday, THIS TUESDAY! I will never be using Fedex Delivery Services again. I wouldn't recommend Fedex to anyone who has ordered something and wants it without any conflicts.

    FedEx did this with TWO separate packages within a couple of weeks. I have a long driveway that is snowed in. I thought FedEx might choose not to attempt to reach the door, and was ready to either arrange a meeting, or go to their station to pick up the package. It contained a LAPTOP COMPUTER. Instead, the driver did not even attempt delivery, and marked the package as "delivered" anyway. I have security camera videos that prove that the driver was nowhere near my front door that day. Then they did the same thing with another package a couple of weeks later.

    This confirms what is the only logical conclusion: It is unwritten policy at FedEx Ground to STEAL or THROW AWAY your package if they are unable to reach your door on a delivery attempt. For the first package, I am going through an extremely inconvenient claims process with FedEx now, with the aid of the seller. For the second, the seller is shipping a replacement. I made CERTAIN they did NOT use FedEx this time. I will also make CERTAIN I never buy from anyone again unless they are able to ship with someone OTHER THAN FedEx.

    My business uses FedEx on a daily basis. We use the express t send documents so I can't say anything negative about that service as we rarely have any issues. I purchased some framed western art prints and sold them on EBay. I chose to use FedEx to ship them because I already have an account established. I packaged two of the prints together with styrofoam. plastic shrink wrap and boxes and when our regular FedEx guy came for his daily pick up he said he could not take them so I went online and scheduled a pickup for ground. The ground guy never showed up and at this point I was out of town and the guy who bought the prints wanted to know where his package was. My wife who is 8 months pregnant had to drag the package to our FedEx store and when she got there they told her they had to repackage the items so she spent $42 on new boxes and off they went.

    A few days later I received an email from my customer explaining that the contents were damaged and he was not going to open it because there was obviously shattered glass. I contacted FedEx and filed a claim. They came and picked up the boxes and after 3 days I had to call in to find out what was going on. The lady I spoke to was incredibly rude and when I asked to speak to a supervisor she hung up, my mistake for not getting her name. I then called back and spoke to another person who was very hesitant to help me but I got her name so I finally made it to a supervisor who told me they were going to send me a check for $100. NO WAY the prints are worth 600, so I had to wait for another manager to review and get back to me within 24 hours.

    3 days later I took the box which they had sent back to me - shattered glass and all - into the FedEx store where we sent them out and to no surprise they could not help either but I made her call the claims department. Guess where I got in the process?? Yup NOWHERE! Here I am 2 days later still waiting on a call. I canceled my business account and we are now using a different service.

It says "shipment exception" so I call them to find out what does that mean, so they told me there is weather in the area so we couldn't get it out. I told them, "alright so what about my charge for 1 day?" She tells me, "sorry, because of weather you cannot receive it". She then tells me it still says estimated date is for today so they might get it out. I call back 2 hours later (3:45 pm): "so what about my package?"; "there has been a 2 hours delay but it should get there today". Alright so I hang up. I call back a third time (5:30) I ask, "alright can I go pick it up since I can see on the tracker that it has not left the facility?" He tells me, "I will call". He calls, gets back to me - they say it's in a container, their system is down and there is a snow storm so it will be delivered tomorrow.

    I tell him I have a sick grandma and this is a piece that can get damaged by the cold. She cannot go out to get it, I took off today (I know how sneaky they can be with their deliveries from the past) for it and now have lost wages for the day.

    When my item was first shipped, the estimated delivery was on a Friday. In a day's time, it changed to Saturday. Original pickup was 2/23/15, scheduled for Saturday, 2/28/15. FedEx truck shows up to my door - I'm outside waiting (as I'm eagerly awaiting my delivery) - the driver has a confused look on his face; says to me, "I don't have your package. It shows here on my paper, 'zeroed out'." "What does that mean?", I ask. "It must still be at the sorting facility." "That's weird", I say, "Why did you drive here then?" He shrugs. Well before this point, he shouldn't have even come to my house; these drivers have manifests that they are responsible for carrying out, with the packages that they coordinate with their warehouse personnel whom are responsible for the dispersal of actual packages from shipping containers, through the actual warehouse, to the delivery trucks - which are what us CUSTOMERS see trundling down our streets.

    Long story short - the internal operational support for the drivers is terribly lacking and poorly executed. The fact that the driver himself didn't actually verify that a package was or wasn't there just added insult to injury. Incompetence complemented by complacency. It's dumbfounding. The driver says, "it probably won't be here 'til Monday." See, the sorting facilities take Sundays AND Mondays off; with no way to find out where your PAID-FOR belongings are - not to mention the fact that you actually paid for a shipping service that advertises very specific shipping dates. They get around this by stating 'expected delivery date' on the website. This takes any real liability from their plate. They just throw their hands in the air and say '** You' customer.

    So, I call the 800 number on their site (notice no real operational or resource department, big surprise there). The person on the other end was helpful enough and doesn't cop attitude - at least there's that. He proceeds to inform me that my said property is locked in a container (that's what his computer told him) with no way to find out why it wasn't sent out. It arrived at 5:50 am...it's now 4:15 pm!!! Why the hell was my order not sent out or even unpacked?! It's now been nearly a week for a 4-day trip! So, he proceeds to let me know that the sorting facility that is now holding my parcel hostage closes at 4:30 pm (it's 4:15 pm, mind you) and he asks to put me on hold while he contacts the facility. I reply, "yes, that would be great..." hoping that there's some semblance of a halfway redeeming answer on the other end of this. Wrong.

    The folks who are in charge of making sure people's PAID-FOR PARCELS won't pick up the damn phone fifteen minutes before they punch the clock for the day, for fear of having to do their damn job. SHAME ON YOU, YOU LAZY PEOPLE! It's beside the point that my shipment will now take an extra two days to reach me, it's that I have no definitive answer as to why or even where MY package is. The numbers keep changing and there is no real accountability for this. It's ** and I am really disappointed in this company, especially for the lazy jerk that refused to pick up the phone at the sorting facility. You hear that?! You are a lazy JERK. Yes, I said it, there it is. Sorry to have to resort to calling names, but you suck. Signed, Unhappy and Disgruntled.

So, I called fedex because I do not presently have access to my leasing office. I asked what I needed to do to make certain delivery came to my door. I spoke with a guy that told me to register on the Fedex site and fill out a preference form, which I did. He told me he sent an email to the manager and it was taken care of.

    Regardless they delivered my package to the leasing office. When I tried to remedy this, I was lectured about policy and procedure. They can't drop anything off at your residence if it is an apartment. They don't care if you are ill - there are policies and procedures. When I called the executive office, the woman I spoke with told me if I sent an email to Fred Smith the President of Fedex, she would get it and there was nothing else that could be done.

When I went to the FedEx office to ask how long will it take for the package get to its destination, they offered me 2 options: the first one, "the following Monday" and the second one "the following Wednesday", in other words 8 days or 10 days.

There is a big chaos going on in my country right now and it's almost impossible to find even the most basic stuff you can think of such as food, medicines, you name it.

The reality is 5 days after the "estimate delivery time" my package is still stuck somewhere in Puerto Rico and every time I call to FedEx to get some answers, I just get lied at time and time again. It's impossible to get to talk to a supervisor because according to the customer reps they are too busy.

    Bottom line, I was dead wrong with FedEx. I feel deceived, frustrated and ripped off, paying for a service that I didn't get. The reason I'm posting this is because I don't want anybody else to go through this nightmare anymore. I hope this can help somebody. Please DON'T use FedEx ever. Their international service is awful and you don't get what you pay for. It is so frustrating. The content of my package is just gauze pads for my cousin who's at the hospital and my family cannot find them anywhere. Now, FedEx wants me to think that this little package is been stuck in Puerto Rico since Friday just waiting for clearance. Really? Seriously???

    I paid $73 to have a package delivered overnight. I don't think anyone would want to pay $73 for overnight delivery just for the fun of it, not unless they need it by the next day. I received no email stating doing to whether FedEx was not operating. To remind you UPS was running US Postal Service was running and our garbage man was running, oh no not Fedex. And to tell you, the weather was not that bad.

    I then called FedEx and the customer representative told me that the package was at the Raleigh location which was 20 minutes from my home. I did not get an email with any option to go pick up my package. To remind you I overnight it for a reason. The faculty where the package was at closed at 5 PM, by the time I found out where it was, it was too late they already closed, and my package was supposed to be delivered by 10:30 am. Don't you think I should have received an email with the option of picking the package up?

    So the representative told me that the package will be delivered by 10:30 am the next day. I told The representative if my package was not going to be deliver by 10:30 AM I would rather go pick it up myself, then she assured me my package will arrive by 10:30 AM. I called at 9 AM the next day customer service told me the package will arrive by 12 noon. I told her that was not what the representative told me yesterday.

    She said the representative could not have told me it would be there by 10:30 AM because they were not allowed to do that. And yet the customer service representative told me the reason they cannot put a definite time on the tracking website was because they were behind on deliveries since six weeks ago. So you still charge $73 for overnight shipping received by 10:30 AM but knowing that the package was not going to be delivered by 10:30 AM the next day. Not trustworthy company, not dependable. Next time I will definitely use US Postal Service or UPS.

    I was expecting a package. Scheduled delivery date was Friday. I noticed that the apartment number was missing so at 7:30 am I left a notice downstairs by the front door for FedEx to ring my bell or my neighbor's bell for the package. I called Customer Service to try and have the apartment number added on. The rep told me it could still be delivered without it. I waited all day and...nothing. So at 5:30 pm I called FedEx again the rep told me delivery men are usually out making deliveries up until 8 pm. She "attached the apartment number to the package and also called the station so that the station can notify the driver of the apartment." This was at 5:40 pm. I tracked the package at 7 pm and it stated that the package was unable to be delivered due to missing apartment number.

    Once again I'm on the phone with FedEx and at this point I need to speak to a supervisor. I clearly explained all of my efforts and even brought to her attention that I had posted a note, so if the driver would have even made the attempt to deliver the package he would have seen it and rung my bell. I told her this package was urgent and I needed it by Friday. She said the truck was back at the station already (which clearly meant the driver wanted to go home early on Friday). Supervisor says the best she can do is have it out for re-delivery on Saturday. I say, "Ok." Let me also add I stayed home from work Friday for this package and now I'm staying home from work Saturday as well. Saturday came and went and there was no package. Once again I stay home from work yet another day.

    I contact FedEx Monday morning to see what was going on, The rep stated the package was placed on a truck Friday for delivery for Monday, not for delivery Saturday...if I didn't received my package by end of day, to call back and file a complaint. My package was delivered Monday early evening and the driver tells me he did not get the notice for the apartment until Monday. No longer ordering from companies that ship with FedEx!

    Tracking ** Claim ** - Today I received a letter from this department saying the claim above was denied and asking for more pictures if I wanted to reopen the case. First of all, is not a matter of reopen the case, is a matter of FEDEX doing its job properly. I filled the claim form with the address where the broken item is, the name and phone of the person who is holding the item in order to allow FEDEX to verify "in loco" the damaged it caused and FEDEX did not.

    The item in question is a 1840 table made in SOLID WOOD that was shipped very well packed inside a U-HAUL moving box with "fragile" stickers all over and arrows showing the correct position to transport it. Everything were ignored by FEDEX. The only way this table could be broken it was if FEDEX didn't follow the signs and transported it horizontally and putting heavy packages over it (that is clear in the photos sent). So, instead of doing the proper transportation and after breaking the item take responsibility for it is easier to blame the customer for "poor packaging".

    In the end I lost the item, the client, the money I spent in shipping and insurance. FEDEX just lost for now my personal and business account and gains all the negative referral that I can give to my friends and customers. In fact I don't know if is a general incompetence of all personnel involved in the process or is an intentional "incompetence" in order not to pay the claim.

Now it seems they have dropped an important package off and have no idea to whom or even where they dropped it off. After searching the neighborhood they tell me the driver can not remember where he left it. Mind you this was only an hour and a half after they say it was dumped off. I had been vigilantly waiting for the truck because of mishaps. In the past there was no sign of any truck on my 2 block long street the entire day.

    I called back and they connected me with someone who was suppose to be in Knoxville Tennessee who asked what I wanted them to do. I told her to have them get it off the truck since she couldn't guarantee it would get to me that day and we had to leave to get to Daytona that day and we would pick it up at their location. Done deal right? Wrong.. got all the way there 55 miles only to find out they never took it off the truck and it was out for possible delivery. We had to have them contact the driver and track his location and hunt him down to get our pkg or we were going to be out $300. I try real hard not to order anything if I know it will ship FedEx.

    Today is February 20th 2015. I finally got my package that was being delivered by FedEx over a week ago. I got a call back 2/11/2015 from a FedEx rep to get clarification of where I live. I gave the clearest instructions that even a monkey could follow, and they stated that I would get my package that day. The following day I called and was assured that it would be delivered 2/12/15 which it never did. Again I called the following day 2/13/15 and I got the excuse that the driver "got lost" and would be delivered that day, never did. 2/14/15 I call up and was told very rudely "we don't do home deliveries Saturday through Monday" so I called Tuesday 2/17/15 again excuses start flying about bad weather etc and how it is businesses that get their packages first but was assured that I would get it that day, never happened.

    2/18/15 I call again and again was told "Yes I'll make sure you get it today" nothing. 2/19/15 again I call and was told "I'll call the driver and make it a priority for today" again nothing. 2/20/15 I decide to call the 800 number talk to a regular customer service rep and told her a few things just to show how angry I was which prompted her to get the supervisor on the line, he thought he could calm me down but instead got the full wrath which included "I better have this package today no later than 1:30 pm if the time is 1:31 pm I will assure you that I will get a lawyer make you pay for the merchandise which is about $200 and still deliver the package, you can take your empathy and apologies and shove it because I can care less. It has been over a week now, I paid to get it here faster but ended up slower than the USPS. Next time I'll do business with UPS."

    It shook up the supervisor enough that he ended up calling that branch while I was on hold and made them get that driver out to me before the 1:30 pm deadline I set on them. Well that driver was here at my place at 12:02 pm and began telling me how she was new to the route to which I responded "I don't care all I've heard is one excuse after another you should use a GPS if you don't know your way around.

    FedEx does not provide efficient customer service. I requested full notification of the status of my package via their website. I waited for a guarantee delivery of 3 pm until 6 pm. I received no notice and after calling, a so-called weather delay was given as the source of the non-delivery even though it had arrived at the distribution center the night before and went out for delivery in the morning. The package was returned to the facility before 6 pm. I spoke with customer service and since the facility is only a few blocks away, I offered to pick up the package. She stated that once it was unloaded, I could pick it up which could take two hours. I waited and called to check the status, still no notification via their website and was told that I could not pick up the package because it would not be unloaded from the truck. Very disappointing and I personally will not choose FedEx as an overnight delivery service.

    Three times in past 6 months FedEx overnight delivery has been a two day delivery and only after many phones calls to FedEx. Memphis location cannot handle shipments and every time they have blamed it on the weather, even when there are no weather issues anywhere along the route. The truth is they do not get it processed or load it on the planes in Memphis. Having an account for years I have only seen this unreliabilty this past year. They look and grab at any excuse for their failures.

    One time we had a pick up for overnight delivery and the FedEx driver claimed the package wasn't there. It was a suitcase and plain to see on the security cameras. But in his haste he didn't bother to look that the suitcase held a FedEx shipping label even though it was the only item at the pick up address. They are no longer an overnight delivery service. This latest pkg is in the city now, 15 minutes away but they won't deliver it now even though it was their failure not to deliver it this morning or this afternoon.

    My wife's Valentine gift was shipped via FedEx. Because the shipper could not find my home address in their database, the gift was shipped instead to the local Post Office, which closes at noon on Saturdays (Val Day fell on a Sat this year). When I discovered this problem, I phoned FedEx and asked them to divert the gift to my nearby home address (FedEx has delivered many packages there so I knew that they were able to find the location). I spoke to FIVE different FedEx agents during the day in Salvador, Dominican Republic, El Paso TX, Georgia, and finally a member of their "consumer advocate team" in Bristol VA. named "Kim".

    Two of the agents PROMISED to divert the gift to my home where my wife was waiting for the package (I am on travel away from home), however, despite FIVE phone calls, the package was never delivered and is now at the local FedEx office which is closed until Monday. FedEx (Kim) REFUSED to provide me with the phone at the local office!!! A friendly FedEx agent phoned my wife in the afternoon and told her the package would be delivered to our home. Nothing arrived. Kim's "best" excuse was that the FedEx computer system that showed the address change was not compatible with the computer at the local station. She had to read the address from her screen to the person at the local station (who was about to leave for the weekend). What kind of company can't sync or coordinate its computer system.

    In addition, I was kept on hold during one of the calls for almost an hour while being exposed to some of the worst hold music ever. Some years ago, I used to depend on a then reliable FedEx to deliver my product. Their service and esp. the customer service have declined a great deal. UPS now seems more reliable and I have even received reasonable service from Express Mail!! Perhaps my valentine package will arrive on Monday - Kim couldn't even advocate for morning delivery when I asked for this minor remedy.

I did not see the package. I have camera at the front door, when anyone comes, I get an email with picture with time stamps. I explained to FedEx that I do not have the package and no email was received around 2:11 PM on Feb 11, 2015. This is a proof that the driver must have misdelivered it. FedEx said the delivery driver would contact them and they would let me know.

    On Feb 13, driver came by and kept insisting where he left the package. The camera is right on the top from that location. I showed him the camera and showed him how I get the email from any activities that happen at the front door. Despite that, the driver told FedEx he delivered it at the right location. FedEx calls me and closes the case simply because the driver stated he delivered at the right location, despite my camera explanation.

    THIS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE, I HEAR ABOUT THESE THINGS, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME. I don't think FedEx cares; they just don't like to admit their fault, and could care less about the consumer. Indirectly they are admitting, I am NOT being honest, but driver is, despite camera explanation. From this website, it looks like there are several other people having the same issues with FexEx.

    I have delivered packages for FedEx for 16 years. It was great when I started, but it has gone down the toilet. Management doesn't care, all they care about is that the package has left the terminal and it's not their problem anymore. They only care about their numbers and their bonus. There is no teamwork between them and the drivers. I like what I do, delivering to customers and try to take care of my customers, but management has made the job harder than what it is and tell you that you are doing the job wrong when they themselves have never gotten behind the wheel and delivered 100 plus stops, I can barely have a conversation with customers.

    It's sad to see so many unhappy customers and it all falls back on POOR management. The only way to get anywhere with them is to say you're going to contact the Wall Street Journal and the stockholders. Prime example, my mom shipped a painting from Kentucky to Florida. FEDEX Office said they would package it properly and it was in good hands. She unfortunately didn't get with me first, I would have told not to ship FedEx. The painting was destroyed and FedEx was only going to give her $100 dollars for the painting. I told her to call them back and raise hell and say that she was going to contact Wall Street Journal and the stockholders. FedEx changed their tune and gave her $500.

    FedEx is so inconsistent, they make up rules and follow them for a few weeks, then it changes. You ask management a question, you get three different answers from three different people. Wake up FedEx, it's not all about your numbers and bonuses. Without your customers, there is NO FedEx. CUSTOMERS are our number one priority, they pay our checks. As long as our customers are satisfied, that's all that matters. I hope one day FedEx will return to the great company it once was, but I doubt it.

    Yesterday the FedEx manager for the area came to the door. He said it was odd because the delivery was not in his handheld scanner and he did not recall my house, but also said he delivers over 100 deliveries per day so maybe he 'forgot' what my house looks like.

I have contacted Bradford Exchange and the earliest that they can ship replacement is 6/15/15 which means they could arrive sometime before July if sent by any other carrier or never if shipped via FedEx.

    FedEx has not been helpful at all, they even sent a form letter saying "your package was handed off to USPS on {Insert Date} and delivered to you on {Insert Date and Time}". They also told me that the tracking number was a USPS tracking number and that they showed it was delivered even though it is a FedEx tracking number and their system still shows they have custody of it on 2/9/15. They have not offered an apology and have not offered any form of compensation. These shoes have been paid for 2 months ago but I have to wait at least another 4 months for them to arrive. FedEx will not even let you file a claim for a package that is lost even when their own computer proves the case. FedEx does not even have an automated tracking kickback system in their computer to notify them that they lost a package, the only way you will find out is if you look for it and I got concerned after 6 weeks and found it out myself.

    FedEx should have contacted either the shipper or the receiver long before that and been pro active but they were not. They only had one job to do (deliver the package) and they failed miserably. If someone tries to ship you a "surprise" package through FedEx you might not ever know because if they lose it they will never contact you, even if they did they would not apologize or offer you any compensation for your loss.

    I was expecting this delivery since last week, but I never get it due to missing apt number. Today it was the day of my supposedly delivery, so I've been pending and checking by the window since early morning. I live in a walk up building and I didn't want to miss my package. As the day goes, I sent many email notifications to track my packages with just one reply stating it was pending for delivery today, so after 4:30 pm I I decided to call them to know the status of my package. The shipper left the package in front of the door as per Fedex operator. HE DID NOT RING THE BELL, NOT SIGNATURE. I went down to the main door - NO PACKAGE, NOTHING. WORST COMPANY EVER.

    So FedEx tried making delivery to my work at 4:43 pm on Jan 29th. 1.) My offices closes at 6. 2.) There are 3 other offices in this building. 3.) There are cameras inside and outside the office with no FedEx truck or delivery man in sight. 4.) No note of attempted delivery seen anywhere.

    Conclusion: The delivery guy made no attempt to deliver package. He figured it's 4:43 almost end of work day, so he will just go home. No FedEx, I will not go pick up my package from your main facility again which is 40 minutes away, because I paid for shipping and I want my package to be delivered.

    I went online to file out the necessary info for a pick up. The pick up address did not state NE (the direction of the street) only **. I then called for a pick up so I could correct the street address due to 4 6th streets in town (NE, SE, NW, SW). When your customer service man answered the phone and I told him the issued, he insisted on sending it to 6th street. After telling him at least three times, he informed me rudely that I did not tell him at the beginning of the conversation. His voice was already sounding pissed. When I state he was not nice, he sounded more pissed, gave me a confirmation # and hung up. This was the worst customer service ever. You need to take him off the phones and give him anger management classes. Confirmation #** AND I'm not sure that is a real number.

    In all fairness to FedEx and despite my previous review, I finally received my mis-delivered pkg today. 1/26/15. I'm not sure if FedEx fixed this or if the person to whom it was delivered to in error finally realized it was not theirs and delivered it to my apartment this morning. Either way I'm grateful to whomever was responsible getting my pkg to me. I'm still waiting for FedEx to call me today with a follow up like the agent said they would; but nothing yet. It is now 3:10 pm PST so we'll see if I receive a later call.

    Original Review: Jan. 23, 2015

    I tracked a package I was expecting delivery on 22 Jan 2015 and it was supposedly delivered at 11:36 am that morning. I never got it. I called FedEx and being the first time I've had to deal with FedEx, the first agent was very helpful as was the second agent that called me later that evening. They said they would contact the driver and I should receive a call from him the next morning; 23 Jan 2015. That call never came. Later that morning, I called FedEx and explained my situation and gave the agent my case #. She assured me that she would notify the driver (who was responsible for delivering my package) and have him call me. I gave her my telephone number and it is now 3:15 PST and I'm still waiting for the driver to call me.

    If my package was mis-delivered, The FedEx driver will probably never admit to it nor does FedEx have a clue where my delivery ended up. I'm going to chalk this mishap up to ignorance, dishonesty and very poor management. Plus I live in a large senior apartment complex so if my package was mis-delivered to the wrong apartment; shame on you for not being honest enough to return it to me. I'm out 60 bucks. Enjoy my new bed sheets!

    Medicine from Texcare pharmacy is shipped thru Fedex. Fedex driver tossed package over fence to dogs. Dogs destroyed medicine and package. After repeated calls to Texcare and Fedex, it took over a month to get medicine. Fedex has tossed packages over the fence to the dogs at least 3 different times. First time was a bunch of AAA size flashlight batteries. I found them dog chewed and scattered. Lucky dogs didn't sicken or die. Another time, I caught a foreigner who didn't even speak decent English in marked Fedex truck in the act of throwing a package over the fence while dogs are near fence barking. When I griped them out about the medicine, they put my delivery on super slow, then left two notices on beware of dog sign. Both notices were backdated 2-3 days. Drivers make no effort to ring bell or make any noise, just quietly run up, stick notice up and run off. I ended up getting medicine delivered to doctor's office over a month late.

    The package showed delivered on email. I went to where they said it was delivered and it wasn't there. I checked within 20 minutes of the delivery email, and live in a safe neighborhood. So there is NO chance it was stolen off my porch with my 7 dogs in the house. Even though FedEx says it was delivered to the correct house. All the houses look the same in my neighborhood. Deliver it to an Address next time. I had UPS deliver to the wrong house but they fixed it in 20 minutes. FedEx has been giving me the runaround for 3 days and I haven't even seen a real person yet and I guess that's how they operate. I still have no package which was dog food anyway. Now off to the store to overpay for some dog food.

    If there is rain in the vicinity or the FEDEX driver has a "hang nail", I guarantee they will not deliver! Yesterday... our UPS driver made a delivery to our home, our mail was delivered, and our trash was picked up. Oh no, not FEDEX! Our package was on the truck for delivery (watched tracking) and instead we get an e-mail in the LATE AFTERNOON saying there was a "delivery exception" due to weather. Oh my, it rained all day yesterday... are you kidding me!

    Instead of being delivered, the package was taken back to the FEDEX hub! Called this morning to find out where the heck my package was and was told it would be delivered today, however the CS person could not tell me what time because the "driver" had never delivered to our area. So now I will bet that my package will be sitting SOMEWHERE on my property (in the rain), getting destroyed! FEDEX ground RARELY EVER delivers to our door... instead it's like hunting for Easter eggs when a package is delivered. Wish we could determine what companies only use FEDEX and NEVER do business with them again. Unfortunately, it's not until the order ships that you know who is delivering! SAD, SAD company!

    This is an ongoing problem with the Sewickley PA FedEx. They knock lightly once on my urban apt. building which has no doorbell and no door tag is left. They have my phone number but never call. Many people have complained but FedEx doesn't care. Last year the driver claimed he left 2 door tags, which of course he didn't. I checked those numbers for the Sept. 2014 delivery. They were expired tag numbers from April and July at a time when I was out of the state from April to August and didn't place any orders!!!

    Now this week I placed an order with Macy's and unfortunately they chose FedEx and this time it originated from the Leetsdale PA office, which is just as horrible. They knocked lightly (if at all) and left no door tag and never called me even though my number was in the delivery instructions. When they do show up they park on my side of the building and I can't see the truck with the off-street parking.

    I emailed customer service over a dozen times and even got on live chat. They of course gave phony apologies and excuses, then said they'd call that office's dispatcher and make sure all drivers knew to call me and knock loudly on the building so at least people downstairs would hear. I have to stand by my front window since 8:30 a.m. and attempt to see the truck every few minutes for hours, like I have nothing to do. Today, the third day in a row of this nonsense (Jan. 21st), the same thing happened again!!! The driver put a door tag on the tracking page but there was none left outside. And no one heard any knock. It makes me wonder if he even showed up and just put a tag number online to make it look good so he could go elsewhere.

    Live chat was no help, just full of excuses as always. I canceled a doctor's appt so I could be home for this delivery, and now they're "attempting" delivery a fourth day in a row when I rescheduled my appt and will not cancel this time for nothing! They said I could pick it up somewhere else. The only way I can do that is take the bus downtown then walk 15 minutes back to the bus stop with my package, assuming it isn't too big for me. I'm not doing that in 30-degree weather and cold snow and shouldn't have to. I refused, then they said I could schedule a date and time when I'll be home. Hello, is this ON??? What good would that do when the horrible drivers don't knock so anyone can hear and won't call my number to say they're out front - if they show up at all???

    This unacceptable service and worthless customer service is what we get!!! This is why I try to avoid online retailers who ship by FedEx, but wasn't aware that Macy's would be doing this to me when their website states they also ship by UPS - a reliable, professional carrier. But they didn't give me a choice. I'll be contacting them and telling them I want a refund and will never order from them again. FedEx's Facebook page is an even bigger joke. They ignore complaints and won't respond.

    One of the Greatest Cheaters and frauds working in the company. I have a shipment from Hongkong to India. The product is of Metal+Plastic material only which is a camera protector - we can consider it to be cover to the camera. I got a Customs Duty Invoice/Receipt a printout on a waste paper. The delivery person from Fedex is acting like he has no knowledge of why the said amount have to be paid. He simply say that I have to pay, then only he will deliver the said goods. Then I have asked him provide me a receipt stating that I have paid the said amount, then again he say that he is not authorized to give so. Leave this.

    Funny thing is that my product invoice is of $179 but Fedex receipt showed to me is of $225, I could not understand how come they can claim any amount. He has charged me BCD (Basic Customs Duty) [10%]+ CVD (Countervailing Duty/Additional Duty of Customs) [12%]+ EDU.CESS (Education Cess) [3%] + SAD (Special Additional Duty) [4%] = 28.85%. Here above: the funny thing, I could not understand how these fellows have added EDU.CESS, where my product does not belong to any educational department.

    Here, if I am charged with CVD, I am not supposed to get charged with any of such. These fellows, are just printing a dummy receipt and say that we have to pay them what so ever they ask us to do. I am supposed to get my product 5 days ago and still they have not resolved on this issue. Such a great cheaters and robbers. I am from India, we have no big LAW to support on such a kind of issues, if I might have been in any developed nation - scenario's might have been in a different way.

    The FedEx person came to my house they did not ring my doorbell . My front door was open and the screen door was closed. He left a note stating that he had been here at 9:13 and when I called to complain because he did not ring the doorbell, they said he was there at 10:50. Then I called and the representative fixed it and she said he would be here at five to deliver it the same day and it was a lie. So my husband had to drive out and get the package. I don't understand why anytime I get a package from FedEx they never ring the doorbell, they just leave it sitting on the porch. The representative told me that they do not knock on doors. They only ring doorbells. So if someone doesn't have a doorbell and FedEx doesn't knock how are we going to know that you were at our house. I guess I'm supposed to sit on my porch all day long waiting for them to come.

    I am so ticked off with this and on top of that my husband gets mad at me because I missed the FedEx person. I think they need to ring doorbells and I think they need to knock and if someone's front door"s open, clearly they are home.

    I spent a week battling with FedEx over a package that claimed to be 'delivered' to my front door but never was, that they'd delivered it to an imaginary address that I don't think even exists (my house number + 1/2). This was after three phone calls (after each of which they said they'd call me back within 48 hours and never did, I always had to call them) where they basically said, "We delivered it to your address, we'll tell the driver to go look tomorrow."

    After they told me this, they said that the driver had gone back to check for the package and couldn't find it, so they gave up and told me to contact the shipper. I contacted the shipper, who contacted FedEx, who said they couldn't help, and so the shipper is sending me a new batch of items. Thanks FedEx. 0/5 would not use again.

    I wanted to send a book as a gift to a friend in Canada. I packaged the book and went online on FedEx.com to print a label and then printed and pasted it on the package. I called FedEx to schedule a pickup, and they informed me I must generate a commercial invoice for my gift! I was told I can issue my own invoice, so I did it in triplicate as I was told, and then took the book and the invoices to Parcel Plus, an authorized FedEx location in Alexandria, Virginia on Thursday, January 8, 2015 to be shipped by FedEx International Ground and was assured it will reach my friend by Wednesday, January 14th. I asked them specifically if I needed anything else and was told no, it was all fine.

    On Saturday, January 10, 2015 I went online on my FedEx account to track the package and saw a FedEx "Exception" notice, stating that the paperwork was incomplete and/or recipient address was incorrect! I knew that the latter was not the case because I know that address by heart. So I called FedEx and asked for help. I was told the data was not on their system yet and I should call later to check, which I did and then they asked me again for the tracking number which I gave them, but they told me it was an incorrect number and I should give them the right number! I told them that was the FedEx-generated reference number and I didn't have any other one. Like a broken record, the girl repeated several times it was not the right number and I should give her the correct number! Federal Express could not find their own tracking number!

    Then I was transferred to their "Web Support" division and a woman with an African-American accent tried to help me generate the shipping documents all over again but she did not know the difference between an "Exporter" and an "Importer" so the communication broke down again. I called FedEx again later on and still they could not find the tracking number or my package, so they told me I should go to the drop-off location (where they simply accepted the package to be passed on to FedEx!) and asked them for clarification; well, by then that location was closed.

    So I called back on Sunday the 11th. This time, a man with an Indian accent answered the phone, took down the tracking number and said he was going to put me on hold for 2-3 minutes to research and come back. 45 minutes later I was still holding before he came to tell me he was still searching and put me on hold for another 12-14 minutes, but only to come back and tell me that he could not find the tracking number and any trace of my shipment! I told him that I can see the tracking number and shipment on their website, but I was told they can't see it and I should call the next day.

    So I called again on Monday the 12th and at first I was told that they could not find the number or the shipment, but then she said she located it and the person in charge of the international shipments won't be in until 2 pm and that I will receive a call from her. That person, Aylsa ** called me and said I need to generate specific commercial invoices and I should go on FedEx.com and do that, and then print and e-mail them to her. She said she couldn't guide me step-by-step and I should call FedEx and ask for help. So I did, and I was transferred to their support division.

    Once again I got a female with an African-American accent who started telling me how to fill out a form but she, too, was uncertain about some entries and gave me incorrect instructions, so she winged it. But then there was no commercial invoice there to print and as it turned out, she had guided me through generating a return label instead of a commercial invoice! At that point, I asked her if I could go to the location where the package is and just pick it up and ship it otherwise... she said she had no idea what I was asking her! I had to repeat and rephrase my question three times until she grasped what I was asking and then said she supposed I could, she didn't know. So I called Aylsa and asked her to set the package aside so I could go there and pick it up the next day.

    This package was supposed to be in Canada on Wednesday January 14th, but it is still sitting in FedEx facilities in Lorton, Virginia at this very moment! Federal Express has wasted my time and frustrated me to no end with their ludicrous system and a whole caboodle of genuinely unskilled staff members who don't seem to know their left hand from their right.

    I will NOT ever use Fedex again for any shipping for personal or business use. I was extremely let down with the customer service of Fedex. I would also NEVER recommend them to anyone. I was met with several rude customer service reps right off the bat when trying to schedule a pick up at our location for an international shipment.

    First off I scheduled a pick up and he showed up late the first time and I was in a meeting, didn't show up AT ALL the second time and the third time he was late AGAIN when I was in a meeting. Now the FOURTH time I am waiting AGAIN for the late driver now several hours late. I do not have time to sit around and wait for him to take his time.

    Customer Service cannot do anything for you if you don't have a tracking number. Although their delivery driver picked our package up and took it with him, with no one on premise and left no tracking #. They did not have proper information to ship the international shipment so instead of returning to us right away, they waited a week until I had to call customer service to try and find the package. I find out it has been sitting in the station, and was told our number is disconnected which it is not. Either way our address is the same so why was it not automatically returned to us? Instead it was thrown on a shelf and forgotten about.

    When I call customer service I am met with a lot of dead ends, for myself and the person on the other end of the phone. First they tell me it is impossible for the driver to take a package without anyone on site without a label (yet he did) and then they are unable to track any package that does not have a tracking # (Yet he did not leave information for us).

    The professional level of this driver is slim to none and the company itself is doing nothing to cure the disappointed I have for Fedex. Our customer is in need of this package and now we are weeks behind because FEDEX cannot get it together. I ask for compensation to our customer (who is paying for the shipping) for the EXTREME delay on receiving the package they have already purchased, I am met with the "we can not do anything to help you." This will be the last time I use fedex for any of our shipping needs. We need a carrier that will get our package to the customer on time, that actually own a watch and can show up for a scheduled pick up on time.

    My dad died just before Thanksgiving (my mom passed about 3 years ago), and one of the items in their house that I wanted to have is a beautifully and intrinsically hand-carved wooden swan that they had purchased when they lived in Hong Kong. It was about 15 pounds, and about 2 feet in length. I took the swan and a few other small items to Pak Mail in Seneca SC to have them shipped to me at home, and I emphasized to Andrew at Pak Mail how fragile this swan was in particular. The wood itself was not fragile but the long swan neck could be broken if it was abused. Andrew assured me that they would pack the shipment with the utmost care and ensure its safe delivery. The shipping alone was about $185. I insured the shipment for $200, thinking that even if the swan arrived slightly damaged, it should be able to be repaired by a good woodworker for about that amount.

    The box arrived more than a week later, a HUGE box, about 4 feet by 3 feet by 2 feet, and upon opening the box, which was very full of Styrofoam peanuts and bubble wrap, the wooden swan's neck had been broken. It was a clean break. I called Pak Mail, who asked me to go get an estimate from a local woodworker. I did so and sent him the estimate (under $200), where his instructions were that I should wait to hear from him and he would file a claim with FedEx. I sent him pictures of the broken swan, as well as pictures of the box which showed no external visible damage.

    Several days later, a FedEx truck came to my house, and the driver asked to pick up the broken swan. What? I did not know he was coming. Nobody had said anything to me about this. I told the FedEx driver that I did not have the box anymore, and questioned him about whether or not the swan could be transported safely. He thought for a moment, then said that FedEx "does this all the time" and that he would ensure its safety. Although not offered, I would not let him take the swan without a receipt, so he (grudgingly) gave me a receipt with a claim number.

    I called Pak Mail and told them about this. Andrew was upset since he said he had specifically told FedEx “NOT” to pick up the swan, but he said since I did not know any better nor had been told anything differently, it would be ok. Not having heard anything from FedEx a week later, I called FedEx to inquire about the status of the swan, since I wanted to go ahead and get it repaired at the woodworker who had given me the estimate. After being transferred several times, I was told that the swan "had been damaged beyond recognition, and FedEx had DISPOSED of it". What?? DISPOSED OF IT? That was NOT their call and what about the driver who said he could transport it safely?? The FedEx supervisor took my statement to file a complaint against the driver but I knew in my heart that that would go nowhere.

    Talking and emailing with Linda ** of FedEx (who apparently is the FedEx contact for Pak Mail), she finally told me after several more weeks that FedEx would take no responsibility for this, and that since the insurance claim for $200 had been paid (and Pak Mail also felt bad enough about this to refund the $185 paid for shipping), that they would close this case. I told her repeatedly that even if one were to ignore the tremendous sentimental value of a very special item owned by my recently deceased parents, several Google searches showed that purchasing a replacement equivalent piece would be $500-$1000.

    FedEx has demonstrated their willful destruction of personal property, their negligence in handling it properly, their unwarranted decision to DISPOSE OF IT (their exact words), and their unwillingness to do anything about it. Is that the kind of company YOU want to use to ship items that have ANY value to you at all? For me in the future, no way.

These people are just terrible. Do not do business with them, I know I never will again nor buy from a site that uses them as a carrier.

    I’m an eBay seller for over a year now. Ship antique lamps out of the country using USPS, no problem. Ship within the states using FedEx and the lamps and shades in two separate boxes completely destroyed. The boxes arrived damaged on top which were wet and torn per the receiver. The porcelain lamps broken and the lampshades torn and bent. Boxes marked fragile, packed with peanuts after carefully wrapping lamps and shades protected using moving blankets. Company customer service and management says they can't be responsible for damaged items received. Furious that they are a shipping company that won't take responsibility for fragile items received in condition they were in and the boxes shipped in looking like they'd been through the mill. WARNING: do not ship your fragile items with this shipper. I won't use them for anything. They have poor customer service and all they care about is getting items there, not the condition which they arrive in. Absolutely horrible!!!

    October 15th FedEx delivered a package to the wrong address. It was delivered next door, to the wrong address. Someone there took the package. This was the neighbor's son, a known thief convicted felon. FedEx claims they made a porch delivery. They did to the wrong address. I have a 100 pound guard dog, he is always in the yard. FedEx normally blows the horn, did not this time. I never got my package. I filed a complaint with FedEx. They told me they made a porch delivery. Told them yes to the wrong address. Would not admit to the wrong address. Ask to have the driver come out and show me how he got past my dog. No, this didn't happen, I watched him take the package next door. I thought my neighbor got a package. Neighbor told me no he didn't get a package. Is not expecting any package.

    Son's mother told me son could get me the package if I could pay him. I said no and called the police. Police would not do anything, the family denied it all. He said that is hearsay .FedEx still claims they delivered it to my address. FedEx won't bit going to the wrong address. Myself, my sister, my mother we're all home. Watch this happen. Will FedEx insist they did nothing wrong. FedEx are liars and rip offs. I won't buy anything online if they use FedEx as a shipper. Now only use the Postal Service and ups. They have some integrity.

I am retired and disabled, fixed income, package was a pressure washer pump, so is very important to me. It is 3 months later no results. Please help.

    A signature is not required for a small shipment from Macy's, but the driver will not leave the package on my covered front porch. First attempt I was surprised that the package was not left since no sig. required. Second ALLEGED attempt was on New Year's Eve, where I waited all morning for the package, only to track the package and see that he CLAIMS he was here while I was still home. He lied, as he was not here. I called and told them that it is OK to leave the package on the porch, and also informed them that the driver falsely logged a delivery attempt (for which they seemed entirely indifferent). Third attempt was early in the morning, but knowing that I left instructions to leave the package, I didn't bother to drop what I was doing and answer the door. Guess what? No package. I called again and asked why he didn't follow my instructions. CS rep. says "It is up to the driver's discretion to leave the package." I asked what criteria drivers use, and she said, "At his discretion." I don't even know what that means. In 15 years at this home, NO carriers has EVER refused to leave a package, including Fed Ex! What is Fed Ex up to? They are intentionally failing deliveries in order to get sender's to pay for a re-ship?? Something is not right here. I had to call Macy's and ask for a re-ship.

NO delivery attempt as I was home all day waiting for arrival! Called customer service about 7:30 and got 5 or 6 unacceptable responses ie: driver must have had an emergency, truck problems, he was too busy to finish (2 hours early, that was a head scratcher), etc, etc...THEN about 30 minutes later I see on the tracking site that not one but TWO delivery exceptions appear for the same time 5:00. That was obviously after I called customer service to ask why it was returned to the facility. Funny, I sure as heck didn't request a different delivery. Maybe the practice of hiring independent contractors as delivery drivers as to not pay benefits, they should realize that you get what you pay for. Or maybe it's standard operating procedure to misrepresent customers by fabricating requests to save face.

    I ordered a package delivered overnight. They attempted to deliver yesterday (12/23/14), but no one was home. They voided the signature section, so I would have to be home for delivery. I called to change that and they would not. I also asked that they give me a deliver time for 12/24. They told me it would be after 4pm, likely. They came at 1:30 when, again, I was not here and would not leave the package. I then called and asked for a 2nd attempt. They said the driver would likely make it back and they would call w/in two hours. I called them after 3 hours and was informed I would have to drive to their office to pick up the package.

    As I am leaving town tomorrow, this is incredibly inconvenient and defeats the purpose of overnight delivery. Their customer "advocate" simply said, "Sorry. Nothing we can do." No attempts to fix, offers to deliver in the morning or offers to eat the cost of the delivery. I was even told they cannot follow up with second attempts and apologized for prior person's promise. I'm furious, as a trip to the FedEx delivery station in DC at 7:30pm on Christmas Eve is not in my plans. I will not use FedEx again. The USPS and UPS are far more reliable and helpful.

    I am the person who would rather write about a job well done than what I'm going to share. It starts out that I sold something to a customer for his 10 year old son in Florida for Christmas. I use usps or on occasion UPS but the customer wanted to overnight the package and be billed to his FedEx account. I agreed to give it a go only because it was Dec 22 and I wanted the boy to have his package in time for Christmas.

    I anticipated there to be some time involved because I didn't have an established account but what I went through was ridiculous. I'm going to condense this because it will just get my blood to boil all over again. I spoke to seven different customer service representatives, was told seven different things and disconnected three times. After over 2 1/2 hours of absolute ridiculousness I had a new account and had the request all filled out with a tech support person online throughout to ensure that there were no errors in billing, pick up or delivery. The package was to be picked up before 6 pm that day.

    6 pm came and went. The customer contacts me asking why package is not showing up in tracking. I call FedEx and the guy tells me, “oh it will be picked up tomorrow after 12 but before 6.” I calmly tell him the story and I'm looking at my computer and it says scheduled pick up 12-22...what can I do at this point? OK it's busy and I guess the fact that the customer is paying FedEx $56 to get his package overnighted didn't matter to them so let's see if they can get it tomorrow.

    Now this is where I lose it. Customer notifies me around 5 pm that the package wasn't picked up yet and made a call in which he was informed a pickup was not ever scheduled. I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS! I call FedEx and still haven't screamed or yelled but informed the lady I was really, really unhappy. I am driving and do not have info on me but she does some research on her computer and tells me the same thing that there is not a pickup time scheduled, I am beginning to lose any patience left and I had her recheck...ironically the driver had been there at 5:11 pm and there WAS NO PACKAGE! Now I am really mad. It is around 5:30 and I tell the rep to call the truck and make her drive back because we have tripped over that package for 2 days. There is no way it could have been missed unless the driver never went.

    You can draw your own conclusion on the next part...within 5 minutes time the representative tells me she dispatched truck and has wonderful news. The driver has my package! That it's in the possession of the driver and will be on the plane to Florida tonight! I will find out today if it gets to Florida and the drama is over but I'm really baffled on how the driver notated there wasn't a package to pick up and was able to turn around and get it (in a very rural area) when a good 15 minutes had passed since leaving the pickup destination.

    Today is the 24th and we will find out if it made it and if the billing is done correctly. I hope so because this has been a horrible experience. It is unacceptable in every way on what transpired and I am completely disappointed in FedEx. I have nothing good to say after this experience. At the very least I would expect FedEx to refund the $56 charge for this to my customer.

    This complaint is about the theft of my US passport while in the custody of FEDEX and FEDEX's negligence towards my security and unwillingness to refund me for expenses incurred while obtaining a new passport and visa. I filed a complaint with Fedex (FEDEX CLAIM NUMBER **).

    On March 2, 2014 I FedExed my passport to VisaHQ of San Francisco in order to obtain a visa to travel overseas on April 13, 2014. VisaHQ obtained my visa and FedExed my passport back to me on Friday March 14, 2014 (tracking number **). On Monday March 17, 2014 FedEx delivery man Mr. Armando ** delivered an envelope from VisaHQ. Upon feeling that the envelope was very light, I opened it (with some difficulty as it had been scotch taped) in front of Mr. **: the envelope was empty: there was NO passport or anything else in the envelope. On inspection it was obvious the envelope had been tampered with. I immediately reported this to the sheriff’s office who came to my house to take down the particulars. I have also reported the theft of my passport to the U.S. State Department. My passport was immediately nullified. I have to replace it. The application process is as if I had never had a passport.

    I wish to comment on the disappearance of my passport while in the custody of FEDEX. I have no way of knowing how the contents of the FEDEX envelope went missing or how the opening of the FEDEX envelope came to be scotch taped. What I do know is that my passport disappeared on your watch. It travelled in different FedEx locations for 3 days. The passport was very likely taken by FEDEX employees. As you well know, the theft of a U.S. passport is a very serious offense.

    FEDEX indicates that the claim was settled with the shipper (VISAHQ). It is true that FEDEX sent $100 to VISAHQ and called it a settlement. The shipper did not steal my passport. My passport was stolen while being transported back to me by FEDEX. It is incredible that FEDEX abrogates all responsibility for the theft of my passport placing the responsibility on the shipper. Both the shipper, VisaHQ, and I placed our trust on FEDEX to deliver the passport to me safely. This was not done. The theft of a US passport is a class D felony. FEDEX is a large multinational company that takes the illogical and reckless position that it is not responsible for its employees opening envelopes and stealing their contents.

    I have two concerns. The first one has to do with security and the second with money owed to me by FEDEX: 1) The theft of a US passport should be taken as a very serious matter, particularly in these days of heightened national security concerns. 2) FEDEX sent $100 to VisaHQ as if VisaHQ had sustained the loss. It is I who sustained the loss, not VisaHQ. And it was on FEDEX's watch, not VisaHQ's, that my passport was stolen. I ask that I be reimbursed $766 ($866 minus the $100 that VisaHQ has sent me). I have all the documentation of my expenses to replace my passport and visa and can send it to you upon request.

    I have filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and with the AZ Attorney General. FEDEX has responded by saying that the claim was settled by sending $100 to the shipper (VISAHQ). FEDEX has indicated that their policy is I am not their client, and that the shipper (VISAHQ) is the client, a ridiculous policy since I am the damaged party. It would seem that nobody can do anything about FEDEX stealing a passport. Indeed, the BBB has stated that FEDEX's policy is what it is. I continue to pursue the complaint with that AZ Attorney General, although their first response has been that FEDEX considers the complaint "satisfactorily resolved". I would be most grateful if you could investigate this situation. I cannot believe that nothing can be done to protect a consumer such as myself against such gross negligence. I would like to have FEDEX admission of negligence and a refund for the expenses I incurred when I had to have a new passport and visa rushed to me ($766). By the way, FEDEX made a lot of money out of this as I used their rush delivery for both the new passport and the new visa.

    I'll start with the first one. A few months back I ordered online and the packages were to be delivered through fed ex. Received the tracking number and expected delivery date. Well the day came and went. No package. Checked the tracking number and said item was delivered. Hmm. So I called fed ex. All I got was that it was delivered and I would gave to file a claim. Long story short. Two days later my neighbor who I barely knew at the time said they had a package for me. Fed ex stated that because I wasn't home they delivered it to my neighbor and they even signed for it. Wow!!! That was a 200$ item.

    On to the 2nd strike! I ordered 350$ in perishable items from a company and it was shipped through fed ex. I thought ok they will just leave it at my door and I'll be able to pick it up when I get off work. No signature was required. So tracking number was provided and notified by the company when the items were shipped. Shipped on a Saturday and thought for sure I would receive by Tuesday at the latest. Tuesday came and went, nothing!! Wednesday, Thursday still nothing. By this time I was getting concerned because of being perishable items. Friday came and still nothing so I thought ok I need to check the tracking number and find out what's going on. I have ordered from this company many times and never has it taken this long. Checked the tracking number and said items were delivered on Wednesday!! What?? Wait a minute. No they were not. And so I scroll down the page to see that the items were handed off to the usps. NOT GOOD!!! I rarely check my mailbox but maybe once a week now that mostly everything I do is online. I also live in an apartment complex so all mail is delivered to a central location.

    I ran to check my mail and sure enough there was my perishable items shoved in two separate large package bins that had been there for 3 days in the Florida heat. No notice from either party!! My question is as a consumer how if I am paying for one delivery method can they justify handing it off to a third party and not notifying me!! This is really poor business practices and I will be sure to call the company that I ordered from to please never ever ever ship anything through fed ex again unless I specify on my order form. Fed ex has already gotten an earful from me and was basically told that that is how they do business but I'm sure they could care less what I say or think. To them I am nothing but a delivery destination that they obviously cannot fulfill. So I have learned my lesson on this one and there will NOT be a 3rd time!!!

Since she signed it was considered delivered but the fedex guy took my package back to fedex location that is not very close to my house. Now I cannot schedule another delivery or a rerouting of my package because it is considered "delivered." I tried to go to the Fedex location to get it but couldn't find the location and they said there is nothing they can do to reroute the package because it is considered delivered. Great Fedex! When I asked the Fedex guy to come after my work hours he said he could not schedule a delivery but at the same time he required a signature, which means I have to stay the whole day at home waiting for a package or they will wrongly deliver to a neighbor and consider it delivered! Fedex, I am hating you right now! I am going to remember not to use Fedex again.

    FedEx was to deliver a package to my home. Contacted customer service four times and requested they contact the local dispatch for information on delivery. On four occasions I was told the package would be delivered before 3. I had to leave the home for 10 minutes at 3:05 PM, I made this very clear to each individual I spoke with, they communicated this with the driver. I left my home at 3:07 pm and arrived back at 3:15 pm. The driver magically came at 3:12 pm, the exact time frame he was communicated that I would not be available. For a 12-hour window I have made myself available in the home to wait for this package, explaining that just under 10 minutes I would not be available. This very short time frame was communicated directly with the driver and he magically arrived during that exact time frame. There was a detailed note on the door requesting the next door neighbor received the package, this was verified as an option with customer service. I personally feel this was done on purpose and do not understand how a company expects individuals to wait for their entire day and will not leave the item as requested and communicated directly with them. I will never use FedEx for anything again and now fully understand why so many people are so dissatisfied with their service. This is beyond poor customer service.

    The package damaged was sent to me by a reliable Ebay & was clearly damaged by Fedex. Fedex failed to even pick up shipment- made me (recipient) photo damage & claimed box was not sufficiently damage to have damaged the item. The box was extremely heavy cardboard & you could see where something had been dropped on it that bent the INSIDE of the box. The box around the item was also damaged. I've used Fedex for 35 years and lately they seem to just routinely deny all claims even when they are valid.

    Updated 2/14/2015:

    The worst - they use these scanned delivery confirmations as "proof" that they have delivered the package correctly. My brother's Christmas gift sent January 2 went astray not doubt to a neighbor who enjoyed the nuts and chocolates and kept the presents. My brother was home when it was supposed to have been delivered to their porch, though their 4 dogs make a ruckus when you get within 20 feet of their front door.

    It appears to me that you would have to sue them in Shelby County, Tennessee. I'm looking into and will call their legal department on Monday. Since I go to Memphis occasionally with my business, I intend to get my $100 insurance on this package worth twice that.

    I'm really fed up with Fedex getting away with this--their insurance is worthless. They damaged a brand new car sent thru their motor vehicle delivery division back in 2008 and denied the claim though the Fedex driver freely admitted that he had damaged it by slamming on the brakes trying to pull it into my driveway. I let it go and just sprayed the damage to the underside of the bumper with Rustoleum.

    The guy who denied was totally snotty and claimed that the claim was not made by their deadline (though I sent the claim by registered mail return receipt) and told me to "sue me". I've been in business for 30 years and at one time I used Fedex almost exclusively but since 2008 I rarely use them. Big mistake to give them another chance.

    I've spent the last thirty five days contacting FedEx nearly every day trying to get an envelope delivered to Brazil. The staff has been completely unhelpful, poorly trained and lacking in a general understanding of service. I've made more than thirty phone calls to FedEx to try and get the package delivered. No one at FedEx ever called me back to try and help solve the situation. Now, after six phone calls asking for the package to be returned, I am just now told that I have to pay to ship back the back they failed to deliver! I will not be using FedEx for future shipping needs.

    FedEx left an email that a package that required a signature would be delivered today, 12/10, so I made arrangements for someone to be at my house. When the package didn't arrive, I called and was disconnected twice! On the 3rd call, I was told that the package didn't arrive in Phoenix when they expected, so it would be delivered on Friday, but would give no estimate on AM or PM. This has been a horribly frustrating and inconvenient experience. FedEx customer service is the worst at all levels.
