    UPS is so horrible they charge sender then don't knock and try and charge you to bring back next day and you left waiting for your package. And you call and all you get is a recoding that screw you over.. Cause they don't care.. Like I hate their customer service and the service and they are scammers.

Between what they lose, their very high rates, fraudulent charges, their inability to resolve problems and the worst customer service; they can't get much worse!

    Driver left my package 150' from my front door on a equipment trailer behind the rear tire on the side of my property. I was home and did not even see the driver. My dogs did not even see or hear the driver which go nuts every time someone stops at the house. It rained that very same day and package got very wet because I was messaged to give it 24 hours by eBay. Which did not assume any responsibility because it was marked as delivered.

    I've had another terrible experience with a UPS delivery. Once again the delivery window was changed last minute and when I wasn't home to receive delivery the driver dropped my package at a UPS store for me to pick up rather than make a second delivery attempt. Now they can't find my package.

    Bought an item from the US for 27.50$. UPS tacked on a brokerage fee of 150$ to C.O.D. I refused to pay and did some research; and found you can go to the CBSA and clear the package yourself. I called to get the necessary forms 3 times. Each time, they said they were escalating the case and they would call me back. They never did. On the fourth time they gave me the necessary forms, and said I had to clear the package in 2 days or they would send it back. I went to the CBSA the next day, and cleared my package for 4.89$!!! I sent in the forms that evening. I was happy after chasing them for 3 weeks I would receive my package.

    Today they called and told me they were sorry but (on the very same day they sent me the forms) that they had sent the package back. Now I am probably out the items and (maybe- if the seller agrees) I will have to pay for shipping again or just eat the loss. Useless, incompetent; scam of a company. Horrible customer service. Never use them. Complete garbage

    Staff was helpful at time of shipment. However, once I paid $25 to get a package there in two days to my son for travel on the third day, it all fell apart. I requested signature so my son would be alerted when package arrived. They didn’t call him and left a dreaded sticker on door. Son drove to UPS and was told by a rude clerk he could pick it up next day. Problem is he needed it today which is why I spent $25 to get it to him today! Great customer service in Asheville from Joshua. Awful experience in Bloomington, Illinois. Shame on you, UPS. I’d love to get a refund.

    I have had two failed attempts (attempt is doing some VERY heavy lifting) to have a package delivered, first person did not read the "Doorbell Broken please knock sign" and walked away while people were home. The second person apparently came two minutes after I had just gotten home and 30 minutes before the Tracking number said he'd be there (which would have been great if he had done his job.), also could not read the please knock sign and I got him on my Ring camera walking away without even attempting to knock either, and only waiting 5 seconds. Everyone was home in the room just on the other side of that door, if he would have put in the small effort to raise his hand, and KNOCK, we would have answered and quickly. This is brazen laziness.

    Hard to believe you can apparently work for UPS while being illiterate, inconsiderate, and of course not having the wit to even try knocking if the doorbell doesn't work. We are awaiting the final attempt tomorrow, hopefully this next person can be up to the task of making a simple delivery and knowing that hitting your hand against a door has been a practice for getting someone to answer for quite a few centuries.

    I have ordered from Amazon several times and when they use UPS as a carrier the packages get lost in transit, damaged, or delayed. 3 packages were lost outright in Earth City MO, 2 had been damaged so bad the boxes were punctured or torn, and now this last package has been delayed in transit. The latest package left Amazon June 8th and was supposed to delivered by June 13th.

    On the day of delivery I got a late notice. On the 16th the package somehow got sent from Earth City (which is the district office in route to Jadwin MO) to Ames IA (the wrong direction all together), then Des Moines, Lenexa KS, and now it is back in Ames IA on June 18th. I tried to file a complaint at this point and UPS just gave me the runaround. I still want what I paid for, and I do not recommend doing any business with UPS.

    I'd give 0 stars if I could. First they try to scam you with their exorbitant brokerage fees. When I told them I'd clear my package myself (for a fraction of the price), they demanded that I send them the paperwork within 2 business days. I held up my end of the bargain. Did they? No. After sending them the required documents to clear my package, I've been waiting for over a month (26 business days and counting!) with not even a call or email to let me know what's happening. It's almost as if they don't give a damn... My package has just been sitting in their warehouse. I called their customer service twice in that time and was told it would be delivered within 24-48 hours. Stonewalled, in other words. How on earth is this company still in business? I'll be avoiding them at all costs in the future.

    Within 3 days of shipping, and the package hadn't even left my state, UPS lost my package containing a homemade queen-size quilt I had designed for my son that took me a year and a half to complete. After a too short claim investigation, UPS was quick to issue me a small check that could never reimburse me for the true value of this sentimental priceless gift. I could not get the help I needed to locate my lost package. When I called toll-free numbers for help I had to talk with foreigners I could barely understand and who could offer me no help. No one cared enough to help me. I was continually referred to someone else who was no help either. I just kept getting the run-around. I am very dissatisfied with the incompetent, untrustworthy, uncaring, poor shipping service of UPS. Wish I could have given them a zero star rating. Never again, UPS!

    UPS told us our package would arrive between 9 am & 12 pm. At 11 am, an email said they tried to deliver, but nobody was home. My wife took the day off and waited at home for them. Nobody ever came to our door. I reached out to them and was informed that they would deliver it the next day. I said, "No; we were not going to take another day off of work." They then said, "Ok, it’ll be delivered between 3 pm & 7 pm." 7 pm came and went, no delivery. I called again and they said we’d get it by the end of the day. (By 10 pm). I asked if we could pick it up at the service center and they said they don’t allow customers to go there. Finally package arrived at 9pm… Very poor customer service and dishonesty was terrible.

I waited a few days and went to the drop off center and they couldn't locate the package and said it was in transit but couldn't say where. I kept calling the delivery driver's number and a couple days later he finally called me back. He said, "I don't know what to tell you, man." I called national customer service and was treated very rudely for not being able to understand the guy's broken English.

    I have never been more frustrated with a delivery company than I am today with UPS. I had a package delivery scheduled today for work and when I checked the website it said to be delivered at 12 PM, there was no text or email to advise of an earlier delivery time. They came to my home at 1027 AM instead of 12 PM. I have cried as I am very livid as the missed delivery notice on the door said that I can pick up my package at the UPS store near my home. I get to the store only to be advised that they won't have my package until tomorrow which was not on the missed delivery notice, so the store associate advised me to call customer service. Boy did that infuriate me more as the rep mispronounced my name several times then added insult to injury that the driver couldn't reattempt delivery to my home as I stressed how this package is affecting my work, and I need to get the package today.

    He kept saying that they could deliver to the store tomorrow where I could pick up the package but could not even give me a specific time frame. I asked him why the driver could not come back out this evening since he/she did not even communicate with me about coming earlier as I would have made sure I was home from the office instead of staying longer based on the information on the UPS website that package would be delivered today at 12 PM. This made me so mad that I was in tears because of the lack of urgency to be precise when it was their fault for not communicating the specific time for delivery. I mean FedEx has better delivery and customer service than UPS and when it comes to work equipment that is a very urgent matter and no one and I mean no one should be treated like their package is not an urgent matter or concern.

    If you have a business I do not recommend using UPS! They charged us over $3,000. If your package size exceeds 165 inches for length and girth (length + 2 x width + 2 x height) you are billed the Over Maximum Size of $1325.00 in addition to the Large Package Surcharge of $250.00. For this shipment the length plus girth was 81 + 2 x 44 + 2 x 24 which equals 217 inches. Basically, a shipment of this size should not go through the UPS package system. It is more suited for LTL. When measuring the box, we made sure to check it over and over and then they GUESSED on the weight. They moved it from 20lbs to 440lbs!! There is some BS going on at UPS. They never communicated with us about the box. It was completely inexcusable!

    Delivery of medical supplies to handicapped customer. No estimated time of delivery, so tag left on door (with no estimate of time for next effort other than next delivery day). Tag leads to website which gives alternative for recipient to direct item to pickup location, but that effort led to final page stating “having trouble loading page”. Unable to switch to a pickup.

    After three attempts, they say “sending back out of state to sender”. Went through four service reps(clearly not located in USA based on unintelligible English), who tried and could not redirect the package for pickup. Each very happy to pass off to someone else. Final result: “Nothing we can do”, and returned critical med supplies out of state to start over next month. Website info on change of delivery by recipient is false, tag does not inform that customer can call and get a delivery window, automated system is like a defective “who’s on first” comedy routine, and every effort is made to prevent contact with a human service rep.

After filing a complaint with UPS, I asked customer service if the package required a signature in which customer service stated it did not require a signature.

    My question to the customer service representative was how can a delivery be refused if it didn't require a signature, and that the package should have been left at the door. Just flat out liars... I know they are lying because I was home at the time they are stating the delivery was refused.

    I recently ordered two items that were shipped by UPS – one from Home Depot and one from Amazon. I was in the process of closing on a house so I intentionally selected the delivery date for after the closing date (the next Monday). The deliveries were scheduled for the following Friday for the Amazon order and the following Saturday for the Home Depot order. On Monday, I got a notification from Home Depot that my order was being delivered early – the day after the notification. I called Home Depot and was referred to UPS but, because they were already closed (I found this out after being on hold for 37 minutes), I had to wait until the morning of the new delivery date to call them. I was told that I would have to pay an $11.99/per box (4 boxes total) “rescheduling” fee. I pointed out that I was not re-scheduling; I was only moving it back to my original delivery date. It didn’t matter. I had to pay $48 to “re-schedule” my delivery.

    Then, THEY DELIVERED IT ANYWAY….TO A HOUSE I DIDN’T OWN YET. I had to call my realtor to make arrangements for the package. When I called UPS to complain, the only response I received was, “Don’t worry, you’ll get your $48 back automatically in 2-3 days.” It certainly didn’t take UPS 2-3 days to charge the fee, but more importantly, that wasn’t the point. I explained what they had done wrong and how it had inconvenienced me but they didn’t care. Then, the next day, I received a notification from Amazon that my other UPS package was being delivered early – the following day. I again tried to call and was again placed on hold for over 30 minutes. I also tried to log in and make the change but their website wouldn’t let me and I tried to contact someone by chat. The chat finally offered me a call back option, so I hung up the call, exited the chat, and waited for a call back. This was at approximately 9 pm.

    The call back came in at 3 a.m. (this was not a time zone issue). Needless to say, I missed the call. I called them again at 7 am and was again told I would have to pay a rescheduling fee. I told the agent I would not pay since I was not rescheduling; I was only changing the delivery date back to the date I had originally scheduled. He told me my only two options were to pay the fee or let the item be sent back to Amazon. I asked if there was someone who could waive the fee. He said yes. I asked to be transferred to that person. He said no. In the end, to avoid having another item wrongly delivered, I paid the fee. Then, THEY DELIVERED IT ANYWAY….AGAIN….TO A HOUSE I DIDN’T OWN YET…..AGAIN.

    This is absolutely unacceptable and the worst customer service I have experienced in a long time. It’s also not my first go round with UPS. The last time I had a UPS order half of it was delivered to my home and the other half to the UPS store because the driver arbitrarily decided it was “undeliverable.” If you have the option, NEVER, use UPS. They are the absolute worst.

    Called the 1-800 # and received zero help concerning medical supplies being consistently delivered to the wrong address right across the street from the correct one and they did nothing absolutely nothing to correct this problem. (If you can get an operator at all) This driver refuses to get out of the truck, walk across the street to the correct address. Instead he stops in the road, drops it off at a homeless shelter and takes off and UPS ground did nothing to address this AT ALL. Don't ever use ups ground for anything important... EVER.

    I had a 3 part shipment from Home Depot of a shed that was getting delivered when I had to be working too far away to be here. I have already had a theft happen when things were left at the side of my house. I tried contacting Home Depot to update the delivery and was told to get with UPS. I then contacted UPS customer service and was told she couldn't help, that I had to go online to update any delivery information. I did just that and requested that the 12 boxes be placed at the Back of my house. I came home to an Array of boxes at the side that pretty much was saying Steal Me. I am beside myself right now at the total neglect and imbecile actions and now have to wake up neighbors to get all of these extremely heavy boxes moved moved and I'm in my 60s!!

    UPS does not sends correct pickup information. Correct information does not appear online in my UPS account. UPS website is very poor, not providing daily updated pickup, tracking, and delivery information. On 5-24-25, Amazon created a UPS Amazon-product-return pickup for me. Amazon gave me a UPS tracking number for this pickup, and Amazon said the package would be picked up 5-26-25 by UPS . It was not. On 5-27-25, when I tried to get the correct pickup time on UPS website, it had no information. When I phoned UPS, I had to call 3 different people, 3 different times, to try to get pickup information. I was connected first to 2 different people in India. Next I was was connected to a person in Egypt.

    (1) All three people spoke broken English and I could not understand them, so they had to keep repeating, very slowly. Each phone call took about 45 minutes as a result.
    (2) All three people contradicted each other about when my package would be picked up. One said it would be picked up Monday, one said Tuesday, and one said Wednesday.

    (3) All three people gave me different pickup information. One gave me a 10-hour pickup window, during which I had to be home. A second said I would receive a pickup time by email, but admitted UPS did not have my email. The third person promised UPS would phone me. All were wrong.

    I’ve never had an issue receiving packages from UPS until now. The representative from Nike forgot to include my apartment number on the package, but normally, when this happens, UPS looks up my address and adds it. Unfortunately, I have had to go through multiple contacts trying to resolve this with both UPS and Nike. Nike advised me to call UPS to change the address, while UPS told me that I needed to contact Nike for them to input my information into their system.

    Additionally, a Nike representative called UPS to request that the package be sent back to them, but UPS denied this request, which seems unreasonable. Now, my package is sitting somewhere waiting to be picked up, and there’s no way for me to add my apartment number or make any changes. As a My Choice member, I can’t even redirect it to be picked up at a UPS store. This situation has been incredibly frustrating, and I'm starting to feel very dissatisfied with both UPS and FedEx.

    If you have a choice for your company to ship UPS or any other service, I would highly suggest not using UPS any longer. Every order that I have placed as a consumer who uses UPS for their delivery service has arrived to me very late or damaged. I’ve been waiting for a one to two day shipment and I’m on day five now. Each day they say it’s coming, but yet on their update it doesn’t even show that it’s at my local station and then it gets delayed again by another day. I’m going to be refusing the shipment from the company that sent it to me because it was something I needed very urgently for an injury and had to buy it locally. UPS has something major going wrong in their distribution centers. They are either understaffed or overworked or have poor management for the package delivery procedure.

    I used to think UPS was the best and after what I have experienced over the last few months, I just think they have declined substantially and their ability to get packages to us on time. Sadly, Amazon is able to deliver packages very quickly and most always on time and if it’s late a reasonable late versus days late from UPS. I had a shipment that originated in Naples that was supposed to come to Saint Petersburg, Florida. Instead, it went all the way to Pennsylvania then back to Jacksonville then to Clearwater so clearly this package was sent up north before it came back all the way down south to Florida again. There’s no reason why this order shouldn’t have been to me in two days.

Took over a week to get.

    3). Had an important letter that was received in a torn envelope and had been soaked in water making the important document worthless. 4) 2 pkgs coming from same place and were the exact same product to here. One took three days and the other they routed through 5 states that were in another direction from its destination. Something is going on with this great company and if someone does not figure it out they will lose their business to more competent companies and eventually all the employees will be lost.

I did not receive the package during those hours so I called the UPS number at 12:30 PM. I did not get a person and the automated service stated that there was a problem with my package. So, I called Amazon. Amazon did not see anything notating an error and unfortunately was not able to contact UPS.

    I finally reached a real person around 4:30 PM and was told that I was 18 deliveries away. I asked if I could meet the driver or if they could even contact the driver so that I could get the package. I really needed that package no later than 4PM. I was told no. I called again and spoke with another person that basically said the same thing. I tried to explain the importance of getting this package. He literally told me it would be about 2 hours and I should be patient. How rude was that. I would not have been calling if the package was not important, nor would I have attempted to get it before others if I had received it on the day I confirmed.

    UPS is the worst delivery service there is. FedEx has them beat by leaps and bounds. For UPS if the original deliver date is one day out from when they receive it at the local branch. They sit on it for 24 hours or longer to make sure it is not delivered before the original date that was set 4 to 5 days before. If you have a business with normal business hours and have packages delivered to that business they will deliver between 7pm and 10 pm. Way outside normal business hours.

    For many years UPS was the best courier, and my go-to for shipping. Due to my job I am NEVER home when their drivers are delivering, but their Customer Service center is right around the corner from where I work. So they arranged to hold ALL my UPS packaged at the center, and I would just drop in once or twice a week and pick them up. No problems for 10 years.

    Last November (2025) UPS closed all their Customer Service locations (which I guess tells you something). Since then I've not gotten a single delivery of anything shipped by UPS. They try to deliver to my home, and of course I'm never there. Apparently their drivers can't read, because notices on every door advise them to leave all deliveries to my address at the local UPS Store for pickup. That has yet to happen.

    When you call UPS it takes at least a half hour to get through to a human, if you ever do. They will tell you that there is NO WAY to have all your packages held for pickup (funny, there used to be a way), and that you have to call in for each individual package. Pain in the **, but it isn't even feasible if you don't know who has shipped the package, or what the tracking number is -- and the drivers never put either bit of information on their door tags.

    Recently I called in a doortag and asked to have the package held for pickup. I was told it would be held over the next day or two. It was NOT held. Instead I got another "missed delivery" tag the next day. I called again and asked for the package to be held. Again, when I went to the UPS "access point" the package was NOT held, and again I had another "missed delivery notice on the door. Bad enough they won't hold the packages, but the keep telling you that they WILL, which makes for a bunch of extra, wasted trips.

    OK, I go to ups.com to see if I can get the package held on their website. I log in and get told that there are "no packages in transit to my address". But when I put in a tracking number it magically finds that there IS a package in transit to my address. I click "change delivery options" and am told that I have to sign up to UPS My Choice to do this. So I try to login to My Choice -- and again it tells me that I have to sign up. So, I try to sign up for My Choice, and I'm told "you are already signed up for My Choice".

    OK, so I log in to My Choice, put in the tracking number, and click "change delivery options" -- to be told that to do this I have to sign up for My Choice -- but when I try that I'm "already signed up". Lather, rinse, repeat. Bottom line, I haven't gotten my package, and I will probably NEVER get my package. I have asked the vendors I buy from to NEVER use UPS to ship to me. Unfortunately, with some of them I don't know what shipper they are going to use until the package is already en route. I don't see that I am ever going to be able to get another shipment through UPS. The only way UPS Customer Service could be worse right now, is if they infected your computer with a virus when you went to their website. If I could I'd have everyone stop using them. In the past 6 months they've gone completely down the toilet.

    Updated on 08/08/2025: OK done this a few times but it gets better. For 1 yr. 8 months there is a driver named Chad in the St. Cloud FL area. Did work for him. He didn't pay me. Then he stopped delivering packages so I would call and complain. Got know were finally ended up with his bosses' cell phone number so started call him and complained directly to his boss and to my surprise got nothing. So long story short I made over 30 complaints got nothing. Last week here did drop off a package and I had one going back for return. Thinking he was gonna do his job I called out to him very politely and he keeps walking to his truck. After getting louder he still walks to his truck and leaves.

    So mad as hell I cussed him out and of course he had his phone on record so he turned that in and in 1 day decided he didn't have to deliver to me because he is a coward and is scared to death to come here because he owes me money. But now I cussed him he ain't got to. My thing is if they would have dealt with him over a yr. ago it wouldn't have happened but the union covers those who can't take care of them self so no matter how much you complain about Chad the UPS driver the union has his back. I know it not all UPS drivers.

    I am friends with the other 2 drivers that retired from this route and in the past have never had a problem but Chad is a different breed. I only hope the worst for the coward but karma is a ** and loves cowards that rip people off and then hide behind their union so look out in the St. Cloud FL area and Holopaw area. He's sensitive. Be kind or don't getting your packages.

    Original Review: Chad a UPS driver has for going on about 2 yrs refused to deliver my packages when he sees I have a package on his truck. He will go on the UPS website and put in a request for the delivery to be held for a future time. I have call countless times and ask how can he continue to do this. Well I guess it pretty obvious UPS drivers are in a union and no matter what the drivers like Chad from St. Cloud, FL do the union will somehow save their job. I was told about 6 months ago after multiple complaints that Chad would never be on this route again. Well that didn't happen.

    Now yesterday the 9th I got an email from UPS saying my delivery would be here between 12 and 2 pm. Well I tracked my package at about 130 and noticed it was again put on hold so I called. I was on the phone for over 30 minutes. They told me they would make sure I got my packages and a supervisor would call in 1 hour. Well needless to say no phone call and no delivery.

    I can't believe UPS can't control their drivers. I would never use UPS for shipping anything and always ask when ordering something if they can use FedEx. Unfortunately lots of companies have contracts with UPS so unfortunately when this happens I don't get my delivery until UPS is good and ready to send them but now I believe I have found a way to get a refund on delivery charges. I'm expecting a call from billing. Maybe if I get enough refunds they just might do something to this unless driver Chad.

    I ordered photos of 132 items in my home for insurance. I used Snapfish to make the photos. They sent 2 photos in one envelope and 130 in a separate envelope due to the size difference. UPS was horrible. This morning, I received a notice that they were delivered and were signed for by someone named Mary. I have no idea who she is but she doesn't live here and my neighbors do not have any Marys living there. You cannot reach a live person at UPS as their automated system blocks you. I even tried two different UPS stores and they were rude and said there is nothing they can do and there is nothing anyone can do. So, I wrote to their CEO and some of the executives at UPS and Snapfish with no reply. The issue is that whoever signed for my package now has 130 photos of my things in my house and has my address on the package.

    Snapfish refused to contact UPS and said they could ship me out another set in 6 days. I told them that the issue is this person signed for my package and it doesn't belong to her. And now she knows what is in my house. UPS just ignores the fact that one of their employees delivered my package to someone else. Writing to their CEO does nothing. I told Snapfish I will not buy from them again, as I won't buy from anyone that uses UPS shipping any longer. UPS has gotten to the point that they think they can do whatever they want and there is nothing you can do about it. I will always check if a company uses UPS going forward and tell them I can't buy anything from them as UPS is not reliable and doesn't seem to care about end users.

    I would rate this as a zero if I could. I paid for a commercial package to be shipped Express Plus which was an additional fee of $230. I checked the progress online in the AM. It said on its way. Not out for delivery when I expected it to arrive in the AM. I called. I was told I had to wait. The estimated delivery is listed. I waited until 3 pm. 1 hour before the end time listed online and 1 hr before my warehouse closes. I called. They said they can't do anything until the end of the estimated time has been reached. I called back. I was then told they have until 8 pm to deliver. I told them absolutely not. The package at this point still didn't even say out for delivery. I needed a resolution right now. I was on the phone for 1/2 hr by this point when they were finally willing to escalate this to urgent status, but I have to wait another hour, and they will call me back. Well, I'm still waiting for that call....

    Meanwhile on another line a coworker has finally convinced someone at UPS to action this issue. We find out it's still in the last city 4 hours away. Can you imagine if I had kept someone late waiting for a package that's not even on its way?! Anyways the good news is we have got them to pull it and hold it at the closest depot. I'm going to pay another shipping company to go get it so that I can get the package. I won't use them again even if they are the only shipping company available. I will pay triple the amount for an LTL freight next time, and I would still be saving. This adventure that the super friendly call center put me on cost thousands in stand by costs because I trusted UPS and no one would help me escalate this matter. They asked me to upload a receipt to verify that I'm a buyer. I would but I still haven't received my package. So much for Express Plus.

    I believe some major operational changes have taken place at UPS, and not for the better. It seems they are directing packages to access points without any attempts at delivery. Could be a reaction to losing huge amounts of revenue from Amazon. Until very recently I have had good luck with ups, but my contact with customer service about a recent delivery was abysmal. They assured me on more than one occasion my package would be delivered to my home, it wasn’t, so they are either lying or grossly incompetent. Just read reviews about ups and you will conclude they have no real interest in customer service. I would drop any stock held in this company as they seem to be sinking their own ship.

I sat by the door all day, and all evening and it was not picked up and then I called UPS again and told them what happened and they said that I would get a call back within one hour, which did not happen. So, I told the REALREAL what happened and I will never get a UPS pickup again. I will have The REALREAL pick up my items from my home from now on.

    After a year without issue, UPS has suddenly decided to refuse to even attempt delivery to our apartment complex of over 250 homes. I could forgive maybe one or two mess ups, chalking it up to new drivers that didn't know what they were doing but this is now 3 packages in a row in the last two months that have not been delivered! We have gotten every excuse in the books, "address does not exist". It most certainly does, you yourselves delivered here very recently. "Receiver refused package". No we did not! We never saw anyone even attempt to deliver, how could we have refused? "Receiver has moved". No we didn't!! We both work from home and were most DEFINITELY home during your supposed "delivery attempted" time stamp.

    We have lived here for over a year and received packages without issue, with the address and all information written the exact same way, up until now and poof! Suddenly, we don't exist? Trying to talk to a person to sort this out is useless and if you ever get ahold of anyone (which is so rare I didn't think it was possible) they lie through their teeth. "Oh! It's out for delivery now, should be there soon!" and the package is already being sent back to the sender as they are spouting this to us.

    The UPS app and website are both a joke that send you in circles, never giving you answers or opportunities to even attempt to get your packages back. The option to just pick up my package at a UPS location because their drivers are incompetent? I have to pay them $6 for the privilege. It says they are attempting to obtain a new delivery address for this receiver so I can get my package but there is no way for me to even try and provide them this information, if I want to 'change the delivery address' I'd have to pay the $15!

    The driver can't find my 55lb $2200 computer in his truck. He says it must be on another truck. So 2 more hours of phone calls to UPS offshore customer service and all they can do it keep apologizing and saying "Do not worry". "I'm very sorry, do not worry". So they might deliver on Monday if they find the package. ....but now I want signature confirmation since someone may or may not be available whenever their new mystery delivery time materializes.

    But they can't change the setting, they say I already waived signature confirmation and it can't be changed back. I waived signature confirmation for the delivery today that never happened. I didn't ok different day unknown time! But all they can do is say "I'm very sorry Do not worry." Meanwhile my $2200 purchase is MIA.

    The UPS Customer Center, located at 3100 SW, MacCorkle Ave SW, Charleston, WV 25303 contains the most horrific service I have ever experienced in my life. Despite being marked as ‘permanently closed’ on Google Maps, it is the only place that customers can go if they have a package go missing in the Charleston area.

    I ordered a total of 350 live tree seedlings, all of which went missing over the course of several weeks at this facility. The first shipment, 150 seedlings from Virginia, arrived at this facility at 8:28pm on 3/24. By 3/31, when the trees still had not shown up at my office, I called and spoke to a woman who works during the afternoons. After TWENTY calls, stretching from 3/31-4/18, this woman could not give me a single piece of information about my trees, even after I showed up in person, twice, and demanded answers.

    She said she could not tell me where they were, what happened to them, or what could be done going forward. During this time, a second package of 150 seedlings from Michigan also arrived. After promising to look out for these trees and promising to hold the package for me to go pick up, the trees STILL were not there for me the following day after she promised me she would be. She then stated that she had no idea where they were, what happened to them, or when I could expect them – same as the first package.

    Finally, a different woman called me on 4/8 around 7:30pm. Within 2 minutes, she told me every piece of information that the other woman never was able to, including the fact that my original package sat around for 3 weeks, before being marked ‘damaged and destroyed.’ To this day (4/26) I still have not received any proof, receipts, images, or apologies. If it weren’t for this second woman, my second order of trees would have gone ‘missing’ as well. The third time I visited the UPS Customer Center, I had to wander around for approximately 10 minutes before having to flag down a harried driver, who then took an additional 10 minutes and a hurried ‘we don’t know where this package is’ before she finally handed me my package that, again, had been sitting there for over a week at this point - only after my absolute insistence that it was there (I was just told 15 hours prior that they had it ready for me, after all!!).

    Everything about this is wholly unacceptable. The first person I had the misfortune of interacting with is either a thief, or displays a disturbing level of incompetence. The Virginia Department of Forestry and myself will be filing an official claim, as well as an official complaint. I will NEVER use UPS again if I have a choice in the matter and I believe this facility should be formally investigated.

    UPS is the absolute worst. My medical supplier sent a package last week. I was tracking it and it arrived in Fremont CA (near my home) on Thursday 4/17/25 early morning. It was supposed to be delivered the same day, but they failed. Same story on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and today (Monday). I have called them several times, and when I was finally able to get hold of a human, they could not locate the package and asked me to contact the shipper to initiate an investigation. Their incompetence has put me in a medical emergency situation. I have asked my supplier to never use UPS again.

    I had a package that was supposed to get to me a few days ago. It keeps getting sent back to the sender because, according to the tracking updates, the address was wrong. I spoke to support, and they confirmed the address was correct and said the real reason my package keeps getting sent back is because, according to the delivery driver, I moved. I most certainly did not move, and do not know why the driver would say this, or how the driver would have that information in the first place. I asked support if the driver has access to such information, and the support person refused to answer the question.

    Additionally, the tracking info says my package is being resent to me and will be here in a few days, but the support person said it's getting sent back to the sender, and I need to contact the sender to resolve the issue; UPS can't do anything. So I am getting conflicting information from UPS tracking and UPS support. Support was very unhelpful in solving my issue or answering my questions. Further, I am concerned that delivery drivers either have access to personal information they should not, or they are lying in their notes for some reason. Either way, there is something not right with UPS.

    UPS generated 2 identical tracking numbers for 2 different addresses and purchasers. Because these were delivered wrongly but nonetheless delivered, the companies say no refund. They are terrible as well as Shein. Ups is Shein's shipper of choice so don't use either.

    I rarely leave reviews, but my recent experience with UPS was frustrating enough to deserve one. I had an important package scheduled for delivery, and not only was it delayed twice without explanation, but when I tried to get help, the customer service was completely useless. First off, the tracking updates were vague and inconsistent. The package was marked "out for delivery" for two days straight—and then suddenly changed to “Delivery Attempted” even though I was home all day. No knock, no doorbell, no note. Just... nothing.

    I called customer support, and it was like talking to a wall. The representative was clearly reading from a script and offered no actual help or accountability. When I asked to escalate the issue, I was put on hold for 20+ minutes, only to be told there was “nothing they could do.” No effort to rectify the situation, no real apology. This kind of service is unacceptable, especially when people rely on timely deliveries. I expect more from a company of this size and reputation. Based on this experience, I will actively avoid using UPS in the future whenever I have the choice.

    My experience started with the UPS store helping me create a shipment for my valid and completed money order. Delivery expected next day. Before I left I had a notification that delivery was delayed one day. No big deal. Delivery day. Shipment goes out on route with afternoon delivery. At around 8pm the tracking says wait for updated delivery. Come 5 days later no change. After jumping through all the hoops to confirm I'm party to the shipment "it's lost file a claim". I ask, "Can't you reach out to destination to looks for it." "Yes that's what the claims for". Bologna. I have to tell you it's lost to try and get you to looks for it?

    I file a claim. They deny claim as the shipment they helped me make. Is against terms of service. The terms are for incomplete money orders not those properly issued and complete, why wasn't I warned the item I properly declared was not allowed. Additionally it cannot be against tariff terms and conditions when it was a domestic shipment. Horrible service. No support and no recourse for my lost or stolen goods. Never again!

    Of all the delivery services, UPS is the worst. Drivers give new meaning to the word lazy. I've had packages left literally on the sidewalk in front of my house (50' from the front door) where anyone walking by could just pick them up. If the driver doesn't feel like making a delivery, they make up an excuse for not being able to deliver.

    My package (MEDICATION) was supposed to have been delivered on Monday 4/7/25. The tracking number showed that it was on the truck and in my neighbors on that specific date. My package did not come that day so I tracked the package and it said that it was delayed and rescheduled for delivery on the following day. I did not have a problem with that. Tuesday came and went and still did not have my package. I tracked the package on Wednesday and it showed that it was in California but I live in Illinois!!!

    I called UPS customer service and was being given the run around about how my package ended up in CA. The lady said she would find out what happened and give me a call in 3 hours regarding the matter. I never received a phone call. The following day I called UPS customer service because the tracking number still showed that it was in CA. I spoke with a supervisor named, "Jill" who admitted that UPS made a mistake and that's why it was in CA. She promised that it would be expedited and I would receive it that same night.

    I have a very expensive package that’s supposed to be delivered today from 10:45am to 2:45pm requiring a signature. So I made myself available around those times and no delivery. I understand that delays and things happen that’s something out of everyone's control but don’t tell me a window in which the package will come, I set myself up to be here and it gets pushed back to 7pm with no explanation. I would rather you say “package will be delivered by 7pm so it can be left up to me whether I want to sit and wait. Of course I could prematurely sign the package but I don’t want a $700 package left at my doorstep so I’m forced to remain here just in case they come. The site gives you no real time updates at all to at least see where the driver is located. This experience has been bad and it’s 6:10 at the very moment and I still don’t have the package but it’s “on the truck”. So I took off from work for no reason 😃

Since the beginning of this year (2025) UPS has delivered my shipment late 3 out of 4 times in a month and blamed the weather when I know that the weather along the route to and from the hub have not had any significant weather issues. UPS is using the weather excuse to get around the service guarantee. This must be against the law and who is responsible for penalizing UPS for lying and cheating their customers out of service guaranties?

    My experience is like others mentioned here. I went online to pay duties/import fees. If you pay in advance you pay less. My total was $25.97 in import fees, but paying early, my revised total was $19.19. I paid this via PayPal and never received a payment confirmation email. PayPal states it only went through as an authorization and not a charge, which is not how this should be. I tried to pay the $19.19 two more times, now I have 3 authorizations showing on my PayPal, and 3 pending authorizations/debits to my credit card.

    Paypal can only do what UPS indicated for them to do which is pending authorization only, it was entered incorrectly by UPS. UPS billing department will do nothing. They allegedly opened a case and told me someone would get back to me same day. That was 4 days ago and nobody has called, nothing had been done by UPS to correct the issue. No doubt they will try to force me into paying the $25.97 because they have no integrity. I have had consistent problems with UPS, they have lost 6 of my packages in the last year. They have never once actually called me back when they said they would. This is a disgusting company to have to deal with.

Arrival was said to be 3/28/25 between 1:00pm-5:00pm according to tracking, and package required a signature, I guess requested by the shipping party. I work as a nurse, so I was not able to be home at that time, but my husband would be home around noon and would stay home all afternoon to make sure I got this package. Husband arrives home a little after 12:00 to find a "Sorry we missed you" note from a 10:55 delivery attempt.

    I've now called UPS customer service REPEATEDLY, and nobody is able to help. I've spoken to supervisors, managers from the distribution centers and all I'm ever told is that "someone else will call me back" and apparently I can't get my package now until Monday 3/31/25.... The day AFTER I need it. I've even offered to go pick it up myself, but that doesn't appear to be an option either. Why did I pay an extra $15 for expedited shipping just to end up with the package the same day as if I had paid standard shipping? So now, I'm going to have to go to a dealership, pray that they have it in stock, and pay $200 more than the part I ordered online, or wait another week or two without a car...

As I asked him what it might be look like and where I could find it he became ruder and more agitated. I told him I would go back home again and look for this proper code and I would be right back. He now was yelling that I better take my package. He picked up and aggressively tried to push it in my hands.

    I tried to tell him that arthritis and replacements joints made that painful and I would be right back. He was yelling at me and followed/pushed me out of the store.

    He threw the box on the sidewalk. I went home.... Found the "proper code" and came back to the store. By this time someone had brought the package back in.
