    Where to start...a few days before Easter I wanted to send my grandson a basket. The man at the counter asked would I like it there before Easter? I said of course. I paid 30 dollars and told my son it would be there before Easter. 3 days later my son called and said the package never came. I tried calling UPS on hold and ** around for 45 minutes so I went down to the ups store I had sent the package from...I asked why it hadn't made it there yet and I was told because I didn't give the right address....After arguing with him he said that wasn't the problem. I didn't have an apartment number on there...I explained it is a tri-plex and there are no numbers....Plus I had told the man at the counter that he is to leave it at the front door....Well they wouldn't leave it at the front door....

    Finally after an hour and a half at the store with the manager telling me she couldn't help me the driver said fine I will leave it at the front door but if my son doesn't get it that he was not responsible for the missing package....so I paid to have the package there before Easter (30 dollars) and my grandson got it 4 days after Easter....Then the other day I was trying to track a package on the UPS website I couldn't log in....it kept telling me invalid email address...I have had the same email for 15 years. I can assure you I do know my email address....So I decided to contact customer service and you get that automated help and that you can't even explain what is happening because the automated tells you to only use very few letters because it doesn't understand after so many letters....So I went back and tried to use the tracker to track this package and I kept getting the message that I had the wrong tracking number....

    I checked the tracking number 10-15 times and got the same results....I'm not an idiot. I can read....So once again back to automated to get the same message there so I marked the box to talk to someone on the phone automated kept asking "Why can't I help you? Why do you need customer support?" I told them I need to speak to someone on the phone to figure my problem out....So the automated sent me a text saying someone will call me in 3 minutes....Well that was 10 hours ago and have not heard anything....So moral to the story screw UPS, their expensive shipping and their customer service. I will never use ups again and I have told everyone I know not to use ups either....

    So I have two packages that were expected over a month ago. They have on there that the package was transferred to USPS and then gave a tracking number. A label was made and the packages magically did not make it to the post office. Apparently, the packages were re-labeled at a UPS partner and UPS will not address that location. They will not do anything if a label was created for USPS. Now I am disabled. I cannot drive or work due to my disability. The two packages that they stole were items needed for personal use. I have nothing. No money because I spent my last dime trying to get those packages.

    Now I have a sim card that is supported by the government so that I can make calls for medical rides and my doctors. The SAME THING HAS HAPPENED. But this time when I call UPS they say FOUR things; there was a label created for USPS so it is out of their hands, next excuse; they attempted delivery around 11 am and the second attempt at 1:20 a.m. (lol who on this earth is up at those hours to sign a package????), next excuse; oh it was a holiday for MLK...um...y'alls shipping partner in Enterprise Oregon made the Label 5.58 A.M. on the 18th which WAS NOT A HOLIDAY, next excuse; oh there was a delay because of the weather...ROFLMAO...y'all be going above and beyond the legal speed limit and even ride up on people tailgating them in extreme inclement weather...LIARS!!!!

    Within the past couple of months I have had multiple packages which I paid "expedited" shipping for just to show up at the same time or later than with regular rates. So they're just taking people's money and going about their business as usual... running late while lying about delivery times. Currently dealing with a sensitive package that I really hate just chilling out in a warehouse. Can't claim the supply chain either, both these past times my packages have been in the area but sitting in a warehouse next door and last time somehow kept missing the delivery when I was home all day long waiting.... like all day long for multiple days (live in the country so visitors are apparent).

    01/12/2022. 7:39 P.M. Shipment Received, Package Acceptance Pending. Supposedly my package is several hours away from where I live, tomorrow will be day 5 of waiting for this "expedited" package to make it from a couple towns over. Keep pushing the delivery date back day after day. Like other reviewers stress, there is next to no customer service or even legit answers at the very least.

    UPS is by far the worst courier service I have ever in my life worked with!! I was supposed to receive two packages from a shipper who I have done business with for over 10 years! I never ever had a problem with FedEx or any other courier, other than UPS by the way. The two items I purchased from the reputable shipper were now sold out online and in store and the retail value of these were now $1200!!! The packages were scheduled to be delivered on a Monday. I waited all day and finally around 5:30-6 pm I went into my UPS app to check where they were since they were on the truck in route since 8 that morning. Come to find out UPS noted on the app, again I wouldn’t have known this if I didn’t go in and check (no notifications from UPS and my notifications are enabled in the app btw) that the address was missing an apartment number.

    But here’s the thing, I verified with the shipper that they had my correct address and they did. They had my address including apartment number. So I went in to UPS and updated my address and highlighted the apartment number that they said was missing on their side. The system accepted it and said they received it and when I spoke to UPS they said it was entered in CORRECTLY. The following day I was watching the tracking through the app, I kept coming back and refreshing because I was excited to get these two packages. By the time it hit 5:30-6 pm the following day, I refreshed the app and it said that “customer refused packages” which is NOT true! I never spoke to the driver, no one ever rang my door bell, and I never saw the UPS truck. NOT ONCE!!!! I was patiently waiting and checking on the hour every hour!!!!

    So then… furious at this point I call UPS and that is when the nightmare began. I spoke to at least 7 reps from UPS over the week and I was given excuse after excuse and empty promises. No one could tell me where my package were at because that night I wanted to go to the facility that the driver apparently returned the packages too, and pick them up. They couldn’t find them! So then I saw through the app that they were shipped out of the local warehouse at 3 am. I called furious again, and at this point they had told me a manager would call me back - never did, called again I was promised a manager would follow up in 20 mins, never did. And it was like this the entire time.

    I finally got in touch with a manager who wrote up a case number… which is another joke in itself. The manager stated that I could call UPS on Monday when it’s back to it’s finally destination and they could re-route the package. I called on Friday since I saw it scanned through at a warehouse and asked to speak to a manager. Again it took 20 mins talking to a representative and I kept referring to my case number and told her I need to speak to someone higher up. After that argument for 20 mins finally I got to a manager. I asked the manager to read what the notes in my case had said and it was NOTHING we discussed with the previous manager who created the case. Nowhere In the notes did it say that I needed to call back in once it goes through a scan to have them flag the packages and re-route them to me. NOWHERE. Again - another lie!!!!

    So the other manager said that they were going to call the shipper come to find out they needed me on the phone so I called the shipper where I made the purchases with. UPS asked them if they could re-route the packages and per policy the shipper cannot do it once it’s returned. The UPS manager who I spoke to stumbled across her words because at that point she knew they messed up big time, and ended up transferring the call to a survey and basically hung up on me!!!! During the conversation she transferred me over to a survey in mid conversation!! The customer service at UPS is literally the WORST I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!! How UPS is still in business is beyond me!!! I am warning you now, DO NOT USE THEM.

    I’m now out the two packages and I have to pay thousands of dollars to repurchase these that are now sold out through the shipper!!! UPS didn’t do a damn thing about it, took no responsibility other than “something happened to our system and maybe the driver doesn’t know the area” are you KIDDING?!!! ZERO stars in fact negative stars. They can’t read at UPS apparently and management doesn’t give a damn. Clearly.

    UPS has gone from being my preferred shipper to one I will only use as a last resort/no other choice. I was scheduled for 5 different shipments to be delivered today, one is getting close to being a month behind its initial delivery date. All but 1 of today's deliveries have been delayed at least 1 day. I actually did get a delivery 2 days ago for 1 package, meanwhile the other 2 packages that were being tracked as being on the same vehicle were not delivered.

    When contacting customer service they try giving me the same excuse shown on the tracking, which is severe weather. That's not acceptable. When your drivers are in my neighborhood delivering packages, especially when you actually deliver one to me, but you fail to deliver my other packages, that's just incompetence.

    I would have been okay with them being more transparent about the issue. But just trying to blame bad weather, when we've had beautiful weather in this area, and all of my packages are tracking in this area, and your drivers are literally driving past my house, doesn't cut it.

    If your company isn't competent enough to deliver my packages, own up to it and call or email me letting me know and offer me alternative solutions to get my packages. While I'd rather not have to drive myself over to a UPS shipping center or store to pick up my packages, I would much rather do that than not get them at all. Don't tell me you're going to deliver if you can't. There is no excuse for a company like UPS not to have better tracking technology and procedures in place that would allow any packages to be stuck in a perpetual "sorry we can't deliver today, we'll deliver it tomorrow instead" loop.

    UPS picked up a package from my work along with a dozen other boxes, but it seems my package was never scanned into their system. In attempting to investigate the problem, I was greeted with no option to speak to a real person and hung up on by robots trying to resolve the issue with no actual solution. This is frustrating and it feels like a lack of accountability by the company as a whole. To file a claim doesn't give me much hope either, as UPS will just determine based on information in the system without speaking to me. I would have never of chose to use UPS but it was a return service for a product I had purchased as a gift. As it stands, I am now eating the cost of the item and I would have rather of kept it than someone steal it in the pick up and delivery process.

    I ordered a product that was supposed to arrive on 1/4. I signed up for text alerts and received 4 text messages thus far saying my package is out for delivery (each message says a different day) and to expect it by 6pm. As of right now I still don’t have my package. The customer service number just sends you back to the website, and the website just tells you to call the customer service number with problems. Worst customer service ever!! Take your business elsewhere if you want any sort of reliable information or customer service.

    UPS tracking showed my package was damaged/disposed of while in route. I attempted to call UPS 7 different times and the automated system disconnected me 7 times in a row even while following their prompts correctly. UPS is trying its hardest to keep customers from speaking to a customer service agent any way they can. Which tells me either their CS teams are that bad that they do not want anyone talking to them or they have given up on even trying to provide any type of personalized service to their customers. I called within the given hrs for CS, gave the correct information and time and time again was disconnected. All I want to know is what is happening with my package and what happens moving forward to get it to me.

    I have to say that UPS is the worst courier service you could ever use. Their drivers in Canada have no ability to use their own brain. They have to be told everything, they’re never on time, their deliveries are always late and they take the longest time to get the deliveries from one place to the other. For example I had an item shipped on December 23, 2021 and it did not arrive from Toronto Ontario to Edmonton Alberta until December 30, 2021 and I have still not received it because the driver said he could not find the address yet they delivered to this apartment building on a daily basis.

It was redirected to a collect centre on 23 December. The driver delivered then, inexplicably, returned to collect it. I then drove an hour, oblivious to this. No parcel - it had been taken away by the UPS guy. I requested a delivery to my home (again) on 24 December. No delivery. Then holidays holidays holidays. 29th December. No delivery. 30th December. No delivery.

    Call centre in the Philippines - worse than useless. Staff at Tamworth - disinterested. Social media customer service - rubbish. Email customer service. Rubbish. My advice is simple. Avoid.

I called UPS and the lady was completely useless just saying, I’m sorry you had a bad experience with the driver," meanwhile I was asking her where my package would go for me to pick it up but obviously that was too difficult of a question for her to answer.

    On 9/20 we received a UPS delivery. When leaving, the driver turned around and drove off the edge of the parking lot into the grass and ran over a sprinkler line, causing damage and a severe leak. The total cost of repairs is over $1500. I have called and e-mailed the local service center and the website support team and I have only gotten empty promises of follow-up. The local rep I have dealt with has repeatedly failed to escalate the issue and I do not receive return calls. The online support team has promised an escalation for over two weeks now and I have not been contacted. So, more than 2 months later I still am out of pocket for over $1500 in repairs for damage that the UPS driver did and UPS refuses to take responsibility. It's very disappointing and frustrating to be lied to by various service staff who seem to have no intention of making this right.

    A package was to be delivered to my address but the parcel courier didn't even arrive! I suppose they missed a turn into my address and never bothered to turn around and reported to their system that I wasn't home to receive the package. How do I know they never arrived? Because I got security cameras that regularly catch my neighbor's cat, even in the dark, so a human or a huge van should be easy, yeah nah yeah? Anyways, I had to pick up my package at a pick-up point (wasn't even the closest), wasting some money on gas, on top of my specified address delivery fee. How mad was I? I was 'ears in line of sight to the front door and received an unsuccessful delivery attempt notification and then checking the securities in the surprise I suddenly went deaf' mad.

    If there was an choice of zero or negative star, I would definitely give UPS a negative star. On Nov 11, I sent a car key to China via UPS Worldwide Saver at $84 for 0,2 LB. When the pickup guy came, he said UPS does not provide envelopes. On Nov 15, UPS sent me an e-mail and said an invoice is required then I gave them an invoice on Nov 16. I thought the package should have arrived in China and the invoice is for customs clearance. Another 3 days passed, UPS sent me an e-mail telling me the package was delayed due to their processing error and it will be delivered on Nov 22.

    On Nov 23, I checked UPS tracking and found the package was delayed again and still sit in Anchorage, Alaska. The estimated delivery time was again push back to Nov 26. I called UPS Customer Care and their reply was that they cannot exercise their service guarantee although the delay was finally caused by their processing error, So far I was not even sure if the package will be delivered on Nov 26. It took 15 days for an express courier service to arrive! Worst experience forever.

    Wish there was a way to write a review with less than zero stars. Been mailing and shipping packages for years and never had a package go missing. I was hesitant to ship a ring valued at $8500 but had no choice… yes I was stupid. Of course within 24 hours it went missing. No customer service, cannot talk to anyone that can actually do anything. Get the run-around and multiple stories. Investigation filed and just have to wait the number of days (which also differs depending on who you talk to)… No updates and no one to talk to that’s actually “investigating”.

    Then, if package is not found, UPS will determine if they will pay the amount the package was insured for…even though there is a certified appraisal. What on earth did I pay $175 for? They’re in the jewelry appraisal business now? Never again will I use UPS…and I suggest no one ship anything with them that you value… they do not care. It’s just another package to them. Now I know why they used FedEx in the movie “Cast Away”.

    Worst service ever and UPS does nothing to try to correct it. If I could give no stars I would. Paid for expedited shipping for a time-sensitive item. It was signature only. Took time off of work to wait, sat outside, watched as the driver drove right past without even slowing down. Get a message seconds later saying there was an attempt at delivery and no one was home. **, I was sitting outside. I even have it recorded on my security footage from outside. Called all day to get the driver back, it's Friday and I'm being told my delivery won't be until Monday because of the "failed attempt".

    The only thing that failed was the driver who lied and now I have to pay for it. UPS does nothing to resolve problems, they don't make any attempt to contact drivers, nothing. I guess they are happy with their low standards of customer service. Spoke with 6 different people throughout the day to try to get this resolved. The shipping facility closed at 1 pm. Who is responsible for the drivers after that? No one apparently because they are getting away with lying about attempted deliveries and still collecting a paycheck. You were caught on camera!

    My experience with this company is very bad. I recently ordered dental probiotics from Pro-B Fresh. This company uses UPS Mail Innovations for shipment. That's actually worse than regular UPS because of the handoff from UPS to USPS which increases the likelihood of something getting badly botched. Sure enough UPS badly botched the handoff. The handoff was supposed to be in San Angelo. The tracking shows an attempted handoff in Abilene which is 90 miles away from the correct handoff location. For a whole week the tracking has shown no further movement. It's extremely likely that UPS lost the parcel en route.

    I recently learned that UPS does not actually scan the parcels at the handoff site. Instead they use computerized records of what whole pallets supposedly contain to generate mass phantom scans. Of course any errors in what parcels are on a given pallet means that you will have false records of where a given parcel is at. We don't really know if the parcel is in Abilene or somewhere else because it wasn't properly scanned in the first place.

    UPS uses a supposed customer service number (800-742-5877) to handle consumer complaints about botched shipments or missed deliveries. In most cases you will never get to talk to a human when calling this number. You will spend a lot of time talking to answering machines and computers instead. After enormous frustration and repeated calls that failed to produce a human I once got thru to a customer service representative but to no avail. The woman I spoke to said the matter would be investigated and put me on hold to talk to someone else in customer service. The second woman flat out refused to have the matter investigated to find out why the shipping was botched. She peddled the lie the parcel was en route and I would soon get it. She was not remotely interested in why the tracking showed no further movement of the parcel after its alleged arrival in Abilene.

    I also tried to get the problem reported online. I soon learned that they have their online system rigged so you cannot report problems with UPS Mail Innovations shipments. The system can tell by looking at the tracking number if you have that type of shipment and won't let you file anything no matter what the circumstances. I now believe that I am extremely unlikely to ever see the merchandise I ordered and paid for.

    I initially talked to UPS about how I could send my packages to an address but that no one would be at that address on the estimated delivery date, so they recommended shipping then said 'after shipping call us back and request hold for pickup'. So I followed their instructions to initially submit the order for the scheduled delivery.

    Then on the day of the pickup, I noticed I never received an email regarding my shipment order. So I went to the website and found it incredibly difficult to even find my shipment details. After ten minutes of trying multiple links, I found that if you click on your profile icon, then click preferences, then on the preferences page click 'UPS my choice packages', you'll get to another page which shows the shipments, though that page is really confusing too as you will see. The packages are listed there but there is no information whatsoever about the order other than the start and end addresses. So I decided to call them to double check.

    This time when I called it was incredibly difficult to get to an agent via the phone interface. The automated agent literally refuses to send you to an agent until you keep requesting and trying in different ways to get to an agent. Finally, I found the magic combination was to say 'package', then 'schedule a delivery', then 'customer service', then 'sender'.

    Once I reached an agent it was obviously an offshore call center and the agent had very little knowledge or ability to answer nonstandard questions. After rephrasing my question several times, the agent finally told me that my packages weren't scheduled for delivery despite my credit card having been charged $350 for the shipment. So he modified the order to add scheduled delivery and then informed me that it would be an additional $7.99 charge. During the interaction I noticed that the apartment number had been lost from the destination address (despite the fact that it's there in another view on their website). So he added the apartment for me.

    Later the packages were picked up, then I called back to ask for 'hold for pickup' as they had instructed. Again an offshore call center answered and the agent had great trouble understanding what I was asking for. Finally, she understood and then told me that she couldn't change the package to 'hold for pickup' because the order had already been modified once and can't be modified twice!!!

    Then I asked if I could speak to a supervisor, and she put me on hold for 30 minutes, so I hung up and called back again, reached another agent who was able to set up 'hold for pickup' but again said she would charge me $7.99. Then she took my credit card number and put me on hold. Then another totally different person picked up and asked how they could help me. I told her I had just given my credit card number to a different agent who put me on hold, but she said she didn't know anything about that and couldn't transfer me back. What a nightmare.

    This is only a fraction of the interactions. Unbelievably bad experience. I will never use UPS to ship a package again. If you just want to get a sense for HOW BAD their customer service is, call their number and try to reach a human agent. The phone interface feels like it was deliberately designed to mock the customer.

    I used UPS to send vital visa documents from the UK to Hong Kong. As there was urgency in the situation, I sent the parcel using the fastest available international shipping method - within 2 business days before 12pm, which includes a money-back guarantee. The parcel was delivered a day late, so I asked for my refund on the same day as the delivery. UPS promised to get back to me within 48 hours, but I did not receive a response so I followed up again 6 days after the delivery. I once again did not receive the promised response, so I followed up again 15 days after the delivery. Each time I followed up, I received a different 'next step' and update.

    When I finally received a response from UPS, they said that they cannot process my refund because I filed my complaint more than 15 days after the delivery date, which was clearly 100% incorrect. I proved UPS wrong, then they came back with a new excuse about Customs clearance. I then proved their Customs clearance excuse wrong using some of the tracking details, so UPS came back saying they still cannot process the refund for 'other reasons outside of their control'. So, after providing 2 excuses and having them both proved wrong, UPS then went vague and withdrew all transparency just to avoid processing a refund. With this experience it is easy to see why UPS has so many negative reviews all over the internet. Key point: UPS offers an unreliable service and will then lie their way out of any responsibility.

First the driver was leaving my packages in an unsecure unprotected area because he was too lazy to climb a few stairs. After two complaints, he decided to revenge on me by claiming I was unavailable and re-routing the package to a relatively close pickup location. Two more complaints (as he kept doing it) and yesterday he again falsely claimed we were not available and re-routed to a pickup location miles and miles away!

    I have had nothing but good experiences with UPS and I really appreciate the brand. I’d like to recognize a truly amazing driver on their staff. I live in MD and our driver Troy is just incredible. He is so friendly, helpful, and thorough. I am disabled and my medications are delivered via UPS. Troy always handles them with amazing care, notifies me if any packages were damaged in transit, and notes those damages in the system in case I have to make a return. Beyond that, he really brightens my day!

    He always has a smile on his face (or beneath his mask now haha) and he is great with my energetic dog. He always has treats and even leaves one when he has to leave a package on my porch. I really can’t say enough good things about him. He is one of those valuable employees that makes a customer very loyal to a specific brand. I sincerely hope that he gets some form of recognition for his great work. I really am grateful for the years of service I’ve been receiving from UPS.

    It is the worst parcel service company. I made an order online to deliver my wife at home because I am almost never at home and I was lucky that on the day of delivery I waited for the delivery man since my wife went to her mother's house to look for something for a few minutes. The delivery man arrived minutes before she arrived and told me that he could not deliver the packages since my name was not the owner. I showed him my identification and the card which I used to buy the product, until the confirmation message that contained all the data and even so he refused to give me the delivery.

    This is not a first time bad experience with UPS. I'm not even sure how they are still in business with how shoddy and careless they are. But I'll limit my review to the current experience. Driver arrives and the parcel is absolutely mangled. You can see they tried to "fix it" with a whole lot of UPS branded strapping tape. Driver actually slammed the parcel down on my drive (package CLEARLY labeled "FRAGILE"). Needless to say, the contents were VERY damaged. Irreplaceable item too. For the outrageous charges they have you think they'd at least TRY to respect people's property, but that's not UPS. I'll never use them OR use any services who do if I can help it. If people made a stand and boycotted them, they'd have to change or go out of business.

    I wish I could do a -5 Star on this review because they are THAT BAD!!! I sent a package to Colombia through their online site, where there's no instructions that there's an invoice that it's supposed to be attached or anywhere to upload. Next day they call me and said that I need to send the invoice to an email address and give me the information on the phone, no text or email. Few days after, I go to their site to check and I found out they're returning the package without any warning.

    When I filed the complaint, they simply said, they didn't receive the invoice, and I'm supposed to believe that? What proof do I have, they didn't even sent me the email address and everything was said on the phone. The package took 2 months to come back to me and after more than 30 phone calls trying to get reimbursed they finally agreed (by phone, never a written confirmation) to reimbursed me. Now I've just received a phone call saying that they're not going to reimbursed me, after they even asked for my bank details on the phone!!!!

    Amazon fulfillment or the book provider, not sure which, used UPS for a book delivery, and UPS stinks. Despite written instructions on the label, as part of the address, and despite signs on the front door (where he delivered it), saying to NOT deliver to the front door; to deliver to the garage door, the driver just ignored me when I went racing out the door to tell him (normal voice, twice) to please deliver it to the garage door, as the instructions say, and kept walking back to the truck. I do NOT want stuff delivered to the front door, and have permanent signs on it to that effect, because the apartment dwellers across the street race out and snatch packages off my front porch, if left for more than 10 minutes.

    It was only when I called after him that, "Fine, I'll just file a complaint," that he turned around and said to stop yelling at him -- that he was "not an animal." Oh, please. As if anyone said he was -- talk about an over-reacting, lame "defense" of not doing his job properly, and then trying to ignore me when I caught him shirking his responsibility. If he hadn't kept ignoring my normal-voiced request, I wouldn't have had to raise my voice to get his attention. Duh. Still wouldn't acknowledge that he was too lazy to deliver it to the garage, an extra 10 feet down the tarmac -- either that, or he can't read. DO NOT order products from Amazon if the vendor is still using crappy UPS to deliver it. Amazon's own truck drivers deliver to the garage -- not UPS.

Their drivers rely only on GPS, and do not even look at the mailbox or house to verify. My address is clearly marked on both sides of my mailbox, and the driver must pass it to get to the wrong address. I live in a rural area and cannot see my neighbor's house from my house, so I have to drive over and retrieve my misplaced packages. I am getting tired of doing their job for them! The products have ranged from vitamins to wedding china, totaling about $600. Other delivery companies have no problem coming to the right address. Only UPS gets it wrong.

    2. The associate helping around 4pm told me the same thing. I asked to be redirected to a supervisor.
    3. The "supervisor" agreed to file a complaint for me, and said she would CC me on the email. After some typing noises, she said the email would be delivered to me in 15 mins and tried to hang up, but I insisted to be redirected to her supervisor.

    4. Her "supervisor" told me the internal emails cannot be forwarded to external emails at all. Then she left me on hold for another 15 mins and came back with no useful information nor actions for me to track my package, at which time I hung up.

    The 2nd call took a total of 1 hour 7 minutes including hold time. By the time I am writing this (09:08pm), the package was not delivered, and when I check back on the website, the update says "to be delivered on Monday".

    I recently moved to a new condominium - the condo is new (part of the building is still being finished). I needed a broom for my new apartment and ordered one online. I ordered several items actually. They were all set to arrive 4 days prior to today. The other items arrived when they were supposed to. The broom has not. The only difference between the other items and my broom is that UPS is responsible for its delivery. My condo, like many, has a package drop-off. It is an automated locker system where delivery companies leave packages. The automation notifies the tenants of the delivery. Then we punch in a code and receive our packages. FedEx, Amazon, AND USPS have all seemed to have discovered the hidden location of my package center. "Hidden" meaning directly next to the leasing office, which is on the corner of the street.

    The package center has a sign on the wall next to it that says, "PACKAGE/DELIVERY DROP OFF". That sign is illuminated and visible from the street. As I stated, everyone else has seemed to have found it. I can not tell you any more information as I have no way of communicating with the driver. I only know what he/she is reporting: "delivery attempted - unable to deliver". I have received that message each night of the last 4 attempts. Each time I receive the message I call UPS, speak to someone and ask them to inform the driver that there is a package drop-off location that is currently functioning and available. Each consecutive day I am given the same message. Also, each time I call, I am connected with a person who repeats to me exactly what the automated message already says.

    The person on the phone assures me that the driver will be notified and that I will be given a call that night or the following day before delivery. I have never been contacted. The driver, I am being favorable here, doesn't seem to get the message. The night of writing this review, I was for some strange reason unable to track the package and get an ETA of delivery like I have before. This is curious.

    As a former employee of UPS I know that package tracking is something taken quite seriously (to control theft and loss of packages). So I was intrigued and decided to wait for the driver to arrive. Usually commercial stops are performed first of the day and residential is at the end. So I waited until around 5pm (the time the package was recorded as 'attempted' in the past). No driver. No attempt. No email. I am more intrigued. Now I am curious as to where the driver even is. I wait the rest of the day in a common area that has windows to the street, and I watch.

    A UPS truck shows up around 9-ish (pm obviously). I am actually kind of happy I finally get to pick up the package and speak with the driver about the difficulties with the delivery. He/she pulls into the parking garage - on the other side of the building (opposite side of the package delivery room). He/She gets out and walks over to a door that would lead you into the common area of the apartment and attempts to open a door that is ALWAYS locked (it is a security door with a card swipe access). The driver turns on heels and gets back in the truck. I hurry down the hallway hoping to catch the driver, but by the time I get to the same door, he/she drives off. I walk back to my apartment, now quite upset.

    Before I can get into my unit I receive another message: "Delivery attempt - Unable to deliver". I write this letter, absent of profanity, as calmly as I am able, hoping that someone reads this favorably. Whether they be someone in UPS that can solve the problem, or someone researching UPS to understand how badly this company can/does function at this time. Regardless, this is the only avenue I have left to report a completely delinquent service provider. I have attempted avenues within the company and that proved less than pointless. Now I will put this review on any site that will allow it. At least this, I am told, is supposed to be therapeutic. I am actually feeling like I am calling for help in a cave.

There have been 2 times in the past 3 months, that I never received my orders when the items were shipped by UPS. If given a choice of shippers, I would not choose UPS.

    UPS is not a dependable company to be used for shipping items to customers. I bought an item that was supposed to be delivered 3 days ago but never received it. Now on UPS website, the only thing shown when I try to check the status is, "Estimated delivery. Check back tomorrow for an updated delivery date." I have no idea where the item is or status. This is not the first time this is happening to me. Personally, I will NEVER use UPS to ship anything. The company is not reliable. I don't understand why businesses use UPS to ship to customers.

    UPS needs to give a 2 hour window for delivery services. Every time I get a delivery, they have to come the next day, because they try to deliver when I’m not open. The last time was a Friday afternoon, my only afternoon off. Many times it’s over lunch, when most businesses close.

I've been hung up on by management of customer service while in the UPS and the Employees and other customers were just as appalled as I. They are Very Rude when you call the 800 number. 1 Rep even told me he would call me back because he could see only 1 attempt to deliver and it was returned but I never even heard back and I had to Pay a 2nd time to have package delivered.

    After a failed attempt to deliver a *signature required* package to my home in the presence of my 17 year old son, I signed the permission ticket left on my door to allow the driver of the repeat attempt to leave the package in my absence. With the second attempt, the driver refused to leave my package with my 21 year old son and simply informed him that they’d be “contacting me to negotiate an appropriate pick-up location”. With no phone number or means of contacting THEM preemptively, I was left with no other alternative but to start calling access points to ask them if the UPS drivers had arrived yet that day.

    As my working hours are sun-up to sun-down six days a week, I had signed the permission ticket left behind in my absence so that just such a situation would not have occurred. The driver not only neglected to attempt another delivery, but also left no indication of where my package was or where it was going and how long it would be there to give me the necessary information and opportunity to actually pick up the item I had already paid to be shipped.

    After calling the local UPS store and receiving no helpful information whatsoever, I resolved to simply Google the problem. Suggestions such as “where is my nearest UPS access point” directed me to the same local auto parts store I had already called. Of course those employees of the auto store being a third-party, knew absolutely nothing of my situation, and so could not help me to resolve it. The status of my package in the tracking module displays its location to be the aforementioned Access Point. I’m sure you can see my conundrum with these circumstances.

    I now have no other option but to speak to the business from which I purchased the item and attempt to reason with them about what on earth I can do next. This business model and structure of operations seems not only less dependable than any other service I can think of that doesn’t involve sketchy truck-stop pizza, but also ironically inaccessible to the very same customers for whom that service is intended. FedEx. USPS. DHL. Even a local paper boy could do better than this. I’d give it a *no star* if that were possible but CA requires the field be filled with some participatory criteria.

    I paid to have a package delivered in two days, but it wasn't. So when I tracked it there was a note saying when the driver when to pick up the package, the customer said it wasn't ready??? It wasn't a pick up, it was a delivery. Anyway, I went through the main UPS number and was told someone would contact me, of course they didn't. I called the distribution center the next day and someone was going to call me back, of course they didn't. I was given a case number and told to contact the store where the package was shipped for a refund. I was told that due to COVID, 2 day shipping doesn't really mean 2 day shipping, it means when it gets there and there are no refunds because of that. I will never use UPS again and when something absolutely, positively has to get there, trust me, use FedEx.

    UPS doesn't leave packages as other carriers do (even when no personal presence or signature is required). I had to call them to be assured that the package will be redelivered the next business day, what was then reflected on the tracking information. However even one week after this phone call I did not receive the package. And when I called again (talking to a robot for hours before I would be connected to a human who barely speaks English), I found out that the package was been held for pick up and would be sent back unless I pick it up the next day. Pick up hours 11am-5pm, and obviously I was at work and was not able to pick it up. I asked to hold it for 1 more day, but they refused and recommended to contact sender (when sender contacted them they refused as well).

    Amazon rep called them with the same result. They finally promised to redeliver it the next day, but of course no redelivery ever happen. I had to call them 2 more times (wasting hours talking with absolutely idiotic barely able to communicate reps who promised to redeliver it again with no redelivery of course), before I demanded to talk to a manager. ONLY AFTER THAT THE MANAGER AGREED TO HOLD THE PACKAGE FOR ONE MORE DAY. It was a tremendous waste of time and just a disgrace. I will never order anything what would be shipped with UPS. AVOID.

    Simple made difficult: I paid off a lien on my car in Missouri and needed the title sent to me quickly and securely. I chose UPS. Paid for 2 day air to myself in NM. My package began its journey at least 24 hours after I set it all up. The hope was depart Wednesday, Arrive Friday. The following Monday was observed for Independence Day. My package arrived at facility in NM that Monday and I expected it delivered Tuesday. Nothing happened Tuesday. I called Tuesday evening and had it changed to myself picking it up at the local facility will call on Wednesday.

    As I'm leaving my house Wednesday morning I noticed a “sorry we missed you” sticker on my gate, (which was open) and thought, well, guess I'm not going to the facility as apparently it was loaded onto the truck! Spoke with Customer Service again Wednesday evening and was told to wait for the delivery Thursday. So I did. Sat at home all day long with signs posted in front stating I am home, and frankly paranoid to use restroom or shower and miss the delivery. 9am-7pm. I patiently waited till 7:01 to call again, go through the stupid automated system again and they tell me I can pick it up Friday at will call but they will call me first. I waited till 11 am Friday and just went over there.

    After waiting in line for 35 mins in the heat, one man working inside and 2 person limit in lobby to give the man my tracking number and he quickly responded that it's not there, service representatives think it is but in fact it's not and must be in a truck still. I'm writing this 24 hours into the “investigation” and UPS is here delivering for my neighbor!!! I did not receive a call this morning again as I was assured. This all happening as I’m selling the vehicle and buyer is waiting as well and we made financial arrangements to pay off the lien so a good amount of money has been put forth. I am sure if that wasn’t part of it I would have lost my buyer and deal. So I'm left not knowing anything at all.

    I'll end this by saying that I feel a tad hopeful after I just spoke with the young man who was delivering to my neighbor that he would talk to his co drivers and supervisor and try to locate my package that was sign upon delivery only. 19 phone calls, 2 days of work I missed, loss of sleep and in a financial pickle throughout. In my 42 years of life I've never had a situation this bad and I will never use UPS again. This is what “Brown” did for me.

Those were completely inaccurate and kept changing each day. We wasted a day that we could have been doing other stuff. When we called them to inquire about the package, they had no idea where it was at.

    Fast forward 3 weeks; someone from the international shipping department was able to finally locate it and provide a delivery date. It was a delivery date in which we were going to be out of the area. They wanted to charge me to change the delivery and refused to waive the fee, despite the fact that they held onto it for over 3 weeks. If you are a business reading this and use UPS as your chosen shipping company, we will not be purchasing products from you. Their customer service reads from a screen instead of trying to help and they consistently lose the products they are shipping (they lost 2 paddle boards that we ordered 4 years ago).

Sometimes I just don't receive the call and found a failure in the notification at the front door, and I have to pick it up at a UPS locker or access point, which is a totally unnecessary waste of time. It's above ten times and I cannot tolerate it anymore. I have been received packages from Amazon Prime and some other shipping companies, and they just leave the packages at the front door and send me a message or something, and none of them is as frustrating as UPS!

I've been here the entire time gave a valid number with the package etc.

    Local UPS calls and explains that UPS is basically rejected automatically rejected unless you are waiting for them when they show up. I asked why I wasn't informed when they showed up and was informed that even though I gave my number and had status updates turned on drivers don't have a company phone so they don't call for packages and they don't alert for arrivals of drivers so I had no way of knowing any of this would be an issue nor did my mother when she shipped. The company however knows this is an issue and could easily mark this in the system for personnel so they know before wasting extra money on morning shipping and two day shipping. If I don't making it before they close today I wasted so much money on the 2 day shipping and this shipping option.

Called USPS customer service which sounded like they were based out of India apparent by their thick accents and was told the shipper wanted the package delivered on a certain date. I called the shipper (Macy's) and they verified there was no such stipulation on the delivery. Called UPS back and spoke to a different thick accented individual and was told my package should be delivered that day. Well it wasn’t which didn't surprise me and when I checked the tracking the next morning it arrived in NJ.

    Called UPS. They tried to then tell me the package was still en route and tried to make every excuse in the book until I said, "Look just admit the package was miss sorted and you don’t know where it is" which they finally did. Luckily it is insured so if it doesn’t show up by the next scheduled delivery date Macy will gladly replace or refund my money and UPS can choke on it.

    I also asked that Macy's at least request a refund of shipping cost since UPS cannot deliver on time. I understand these things happen but to deal with three different customer service representatives I could barely understand due to their poor English and to be given multiple excuse and misinformation is inexcusable. UPS needs to up its game, base its customer service in America or at least hire representatives who can speak English.

When they've refused, I've asked them if they could please bring them to the store and my brother will pick them up with me and they say they will but they don't, they do a return to sender stating that I have refused the package.

What I need to do is once I get a tracking number, I call the company that I've ordered it from, they call UPS, they tell their driver they have to bring it to me.

    Yesterday took the cake I am just livid!! They refused to bring it down! It's six stairs, it's an air conditioner, obviously I can't carry it!

I get an email saying that the item has been delivered. Where the heck is it. The company doesn't know either because it doesn't say anywhere on their tracking page. I said if it comes down to proof, there are cameras everywhere including the lobby. So if they say it was left here at the front door because that's where the email said it was then I can get property management to look at the video and see if there was indeed a package left by UPS. If they didn't leave a package, then those fellas are in big trouble. If they did leave a package then the video should show at some point somebody stealing said package. Now I wait until Monday...

Each time being told the delay is an issue out of their control. Finally, on the 4th call I was able to speak with a supervisor who explained the distribution centre is back up with packages and they have no idea when my package will be delivered. It is Shocking how an "issue out of their control" is that their location has too many packages to sort. No indication on an update, I had paid extra for expedited shipping and I had to call 4 times before I got more than a generic answer. A terrible system in place.

They are all VERY helpful and, even when I arrive right up to closing time (truth be known AFTER closing ---> sometimes), they greet me with a smile. Kudos to them all at Ludington MI!!!

    Thanks UPS for "losing" the 900.00 dollar ring that I bought for my daughter for her bday. The ring was insured by the store, so the store gave me my money back and they filed a claim against UPS. I'm sure one of your employees stole it! My daughters surprise for her bday was ruined however by you guys! Thanks a lot!

    IMPOSSIBLE to speak to anyone who can help with a problem. Email said my things were delivered and left on porch, My camera says different, plus I was sitting on the porch at the time of supposed delivery. From now on any vendor using them I will not buy from or shipments will be returned!!!!

    I paid $55.37 to have an 8 lb box of rare dishes shipped from Texas to Florida. They delivered on time but the box looked like it had been kicked around a good bit. Maybe I shouldn't have marked it as fragile. It is a clear lack of care for the packages they are delivering.

    I ordered sideboards for my truck to be shipped from the USA to Canada. When it arrived it looked like they forgot to use a parachute to drop it from the plane they used to transport it here. When it arrived the box was so crushed it had exploded open on both ends and in the middle. I complained to the driver and he said I should place a claim for the damage of the truck parts inside, but would do nothing else. When I went to place a claim on the damage UPS denied me because I have a automatic delivery signature for all deliveries from UPS. They said I have released them from any responsibilities due to this pre-existing signature. This company does not take care of responsibilities for their deliveries so I recommend removing any standing release you might have so they can avoid taking responsibility for the rotten service they provide, or better yet stop using them all together!!!

    Will never, never use UPS again. They are a waste of time and money. It's been 3 days now and still no package which was sent NEXT DAY. Can't get a human to talk to for 2 days then when I do get a person they just lie and keep putting me on hold.

    We had a package shipped in January. The driver never scanned the package, but did scan the other three packages he picked up at the same exact time. I put in a claim in February. It is now the end of April and we have only been given the run around this entire time. I have been calling and lied to every time. They say they will call back, that they will send the paperwork for reimbursement etc but never have. What happened to their customer service? At this point we are switching to Fed Ex. I highly recommend that no one uses UPS to deliver internationally or any item worth over $100. Because when they lose your package, they will not help you in any way shape or form.
