    Every time I have a package sent to me through UPS it is late. That is the one thing you can count on with them. I can get a package from the same place to the same place with either USPS or FedEx with no problem but it's always something with ups.

    Waited for a package for five days with every day on their app, said it's loaded on delivery truck to be delivered that day three times. I found out that it never was on a delivery truck. It was sitting in a semi. So UPS lies to their customers knowing it is not coming that day!. When your initial delivery day is missed. You may not get an accurate rescheduled date.

    Delivered my package FIVE DAYS LATE. THERE WAS FOOD IN THERE YOU MORONS. It said refrigerate on the box but did you? No. You made up some fake excuses about my address being incorrect?? But you figured it out later on your own. Lying liars. Lazy delivery people. Also, took what was CLEARLY A CAKE AND TURNED IT ON ITS SIDE and left it on my wet driveway/walkway. Went to go file a damage claim . . . And you want to force me to give you all my personal information by creating an account just to complain. I will never use UPS. This is not the first time they have screwed me.

    No help by phone. It's a surreal zombie experience trying to find out about delivery. Their options for assistance do not fit into people's actual problems. Forget getting a package delivered if you live in a rural area. The drivers don't have a clue. Avoid UPS at all costs!

    UPS is struggling to deliver a package that was next day air. They can't give a solid reason why, and they won't resolve the issue. Hours upon hours on the phone, a day spent at home waiting for the package, and no resolution. They have zero sense of urgency.

    I ordered a camera for an event, which required a signature upon delivery. Since I wasn’t home, I called customer service to ask about my options. They advised me to pre-sign, which I did. However, UPS kept changing the delivery date and providing different reasons for the delay. Every time I called customer service, I received inconsistent answers from different representatives. The entire process was frustrating and stressful. I even had to take time off work twice to be available for the delivery, but each time, they either rescheduled or claimed they couldn’t access the building due to security restrictions—something that had never been an issue with other deliveries. UPS should offer more flexible options for driver instructions and create a system that allows real-time communication between drivers and recipients on the day of delivery. This would help avoid unnecessary delays and reduce customer frustration.

    Terrible service. Has been 3 days already that shows up “out for delivery” and it’s been cancelled again. I am never going to have anything shipped UPS again if there is another option and strongly consider using another company that offers shipping other than UPS. They’re such incompetent they shouldn’t be in business.

    Per a call to the UPS store in Moon, PA, I inquired about the cost to have an antique cedar chest that was my Mom’s who passed away shipped to me to Florida. I was misquoted (now I’m aware) and told they will pack it properly if dropped off directly. I gave a family member who lives in PA the info provided so it can be shipped. Upon her arrival to UPS, another employee told her she would have to buy her own packing material at UHaul. Baffles me! You’re UPS!! And you send us to U-HAUL?

    Two boxes wrapped and taped around a cedar chest, no “fragile” label, no label stating “this side up”... delivered through multiple States and banged around on truck, the UPS driver in my local area then proceeded to roll my chest and slammed down it up and down repeating this to deliver to my door! My chest is destroyed!!

    And UPS denied claim for “improper packaging.” This falls fully on UPS as instructions from them were provided! They never marked or packaged the box accordingly and properly. Apparently, UPS does not know how to ship a chest and they partner with U-HAUL for service needs and don’t ship packages properly at this location. I am not a UPS packager or employee! It’s your job! The staff at the Moon location and management have failed me and my package! A sentimental piece that is irreplaceable! I do not recommend this store!

    If I could give UPS zero stars, I would. Their delivery service is a complete joke. Every single time I order something, they manage to screw it up. The estimated delivery time? Might as well be a random guess because they NEVER deliver on time. I’ve had packages delayed for days with no explanation, and when I try to contact customer service, all I get are excuses.

    Their tracking system is useless—it’ll say “Out for Delivery” all day, and then suddenly, “Delivery Rescheduled” for no reason. Meanwhile, I’ve been sitting at home waiting for a package that never arrives. The worst part? They don’t take any responsibility. Instead of owning up to their mistakes, they blame everything from “weather conditions” (on a sunny day) to “address issues” (which somehow isn’t a problem for FedEx or USPS). It’s like they just don’t care. If you need your package to actually arrive on time, do yourself a favor and use literally ANY other shipping service. UPS is unreliable, unprofessional, and a total waste of time.

    UPS time has come and it has gone, they're still doing things the old standard way of shipping with inaccurate time frames and huge gaps in between. If this company is gonna last the next 3 years they need to get accurate shipping times with GPS tracking. Not only should customers know that the delivery is out to be delivered but where exactly the truck is with the package. Walmart has a good tracking for deliveries, when drivers are pulling up we can actually see the car pulling up on the gps system.

    I'm sick of this attempted delivery with UPS, even FedEx has a system where it says delivered so at least you can run outside and grab it within the first minute or two of it being delivered. I hate UPS and I pray to God he dismantles this company or they come to their senses and update their technology to better serve customers. With the technology today of Tesla and Walmart it's no way we should be having more attempted deliveries than actual deliveries.

    UPS charged me almost 1400.00 dollars to ship 13 boxes from my dads house. Not just any boxes, these boxes were filled with precious memories and 11 of boxes were filled with my grandmother's china. There were 2 sets of this beautiful china that I had planned to give each of my granddaughters a set when they got married. How special for them to have such a gift from my dad and his mother. But now broken despite all the red labels and all the bubble wrap broken. 12 tea cups there are now 5, salt and pepper shakers still in their original package plus bubble wrap broken, huge serving bowls, creamer, broken plates, etc . So I decided to file multiple claims with UPS or I thought I would horrible there is at least 25 steps that have to be completed for each claim and then they decide if you get 100.00 back or not.

    UPS is the world's worst shopping service. Customer service phone numbers designed to deny you access to a human by attempting to confuse and wear you out. When you do get a human, they don't speak English, have less ability to help you as any other random person in the Philippines just walking down the street. They damage everything, UPS could break a diamond and shatter water. The "guarantee" a delivery time with next day air. Then the package gets to within a mile and sits there for 3 days. UPS is unreliable, uncaring, greedy, and untrustworthy. Next time you want to ship something just stomp on it, light it on fire. And put it through a wood chipper into a dumpsters.

    First of all I'm a supervisor with USPS so I totally understand weather delays. Package arrived a week ago today. Approximately a week and a half ago it snowed here so I get it they were behind. So we're we, which is why I was patient for three days in a row while I watched my package get loaded onto a truck only to be scanned weather delay each day and not delivered. The last day it was placed on hold and definitely not by me. I want my package. Got ahold of customer service who put me in touch with local dispatch who found my package there and assured me he would get it out to me. 4 days have gone by now and there is no movement.

    I messaged in the email thread from local dispatch inquiring why my package still has yet to be OFD and someone responded with Christmas delays and bad weather (a week and a half since it snowed remember?) and then closed the thread so I couldn't even respond. Is this how y'all treat customers? My package has literally been here a week in Tulsa and still today is not OFD.

    I am incredibly disappointed in the UPS services I have experienced. I work for a boatyard in Bristol, RI and had to return an item. I paid for the label using my CC and the package was delivered to the destination (I'm assuming). However, they charged my card, and I never received any form of confirmation, or tracking number. Then I spent days with their support team and told me they cannot give me a receipt because I don't have a tracking number. They said there was nothing they can do and everything was within their practices. That being said, charging someone with being able to provide any receipt is a fraudulent practice.

    I paid $175 USD on July 23, 2024 to send a package to Argentina. It is January 27, 2025 and this package has still not been delivered. I have inquired multiple times about the whereabouts of this package, and I get a different story every time. I obtained notes from the tracking number, and here are some of the lies:

    08/26/2024 - The receiver does not want the product and has refused the delivery. 09/03/2024 - Some additional transit time is required since the receiver is located in a remote area. 09/07/2024 - The receiver was not available for delivery. We'll make a second attempt the next business day. 09/11/2024 - The receiver was not available for delivery. We'll make a second attempt the next business day. 09/13/2024 - The receiver was not available for delivery. We'll make a second attempt the next business day. 09/25/2024 - The receiver does not want the product and has refused the delivery. 10/16/2024 - Delivery has been rescheduled due to holiday closures. / We will contact the sender. 10/23/2024 - A non-UPS labor dispute has delayed delivery. We're working to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / We will contact the sender. 01/20/2025 - On the Way. Some additional transit time is required since the receiver is located in a re‐mote area.

    I was never contacted and the recipient was never contacted. They never "refused the package" as per UPS's notes. I will never trust UPS with another parcel for international delivery again.

    Paid for 2 day shipping, 8 days later... no package. I'm not even going to be in the same location when the package is supposed to arrive (in 2-3 more days). I'm out of town on business. The reason we paid to ship it, it's my medications. Customer service is rude, doesn't care, won't issue refunds, won't even ship it to my house, since that's where I'll be by the time they find it. They want us to go to the UPS store to pick it up when it arrives, causing even further inconvenience. Apparently FYI, the UPS store isn't even affiliated with UPS. 2 separate entities. I've had bad experiences with Fed EX, but this is ridiculous!

    Drivers that claim delivery attempts that were never actually made, and non-existent "customer service" that refuses to work with you to get your package to you. You get bounced around between the 800 number and local terminal, both of which tell you that you need to speak to the other to solve the issue, before eventually getting on the phone with an agent who clearly does not know nor care how to help you. I've never had as many shipping issues with a company as I've had with UPS. They are by far the most useless shipping company on the market and I really wish companies would stop using them, forcing me to have to put up with their nightmare of a "service".

    I only have one star because zero stars is not an option. I’ve had a terrible few months with UPS. First I am not sure why T mobile uses them because it seems they just steal the wireless devices being shipped back in those prepaid UPS boxes so the phones I returned showed up empty. That’s t mobile's problem but it’s also been mine having to work that out. Now they just told me for 5 straight days that a large super urgent and important box I had coming for an art show was on a truck en route to me. The truck showed up 3 of those days without the box. The other 2 days were just lies on lies that I’d get a call back and that it wasn’t lost.

    Now this morning through twitter out of all things I finally got an answer that a 3ft large box somehow is lost even though it showed scanned numerous times. None of the managers who were supposed to call back did. I’ve also had a package with over 18k of product disappear before with no accountability that to this day has still never showed up. I recommend Fedex or DHL who may have errors but never as bad. Even the USPS is more reliable though they may damage packages more. But UPS. Never ever ever. They are the worst option and it’s not even close.

Other packages have passed through there and have since been delivered. It says severe weather, but it's been sunny and nice the entire time.

    So this is my last time getting anything delivered through UPS. I ordered a iPhone that essentially was stolen. Against my better judgment I tried through them again and this time left instructions and yet the package is again not delivered. It is sad to feel that because the area you live in or because the driver feels it's in his best interest to simply disregard written instructions. I'm very disappointed and dissatisfied and you all have definitely lost a customer. I have been ordering through UPS for 10 plus years and this how brown skinned loyal customers are treated. I see.

    For international shipping from another country to the U.S. (my experience is mainly with Europe), UPS is not well organized to negotiate the international customs process, and it is almost impossible to speak to someone on the phone to facilitate the process, and it is time-consuming and difficult to ensure receipt of an international package. By comparison, my experiences with DHL have been seamless and easy, so I recommend them highly for international shipping. FedEx is okay, too, better than UPS, but not as well run and organized as DHL for international shipping.

    Good day. This review highlights the continued poor performance by UPS in their service delivery to customers. On Wednesday 22 January, 2025, I sent an urgent document from Brampton, Ontario, Canada to Davie, Florida using UPS (The UPS Store #533), Invoice # **. Prior to sending this important document, I asked specific questions and was given confirmation that this urgent document would reach its destination on time (before Friday 24 January, 2025 at 4pm). On hearing this confirmation, I sent the document to Davie, Florida, using UPS (cost CAD$105.29).

    The outcome of this situation, the document was delayed by over 24 hours, this information was confirmed through the inquires from two Customer Service Representatives CSRs). Telephone numbers 905 793 9553 and UPS 1 800 742 5877. I am very much disappointed and disturbed as this important document did not reached its destination on time and that a paid attorney's an appointment had to be cancelled because of the late delivery by UPS of this important document. When I spoke to the two (2) CSRs, they did not care as they were not affected by this delay. Therefore, I am requesting the full amount of CAD$ 105.29 be refunded to me as this delay was NOT my fault to compensate for the cancellation of the lawyers fee. I do hope a quick and positive response to this unfortunate situation. Thank you. Parcel Shipping Order **. TR# **. ALL NECESSARY INFORMATION IS PROVIDED.

    I had 3 packages that were being delivered around the same time. All three came through Atlanta, GA and per the tracking website, we’re “on the way” to the Doraville, GA location at the same time. Days before inclement weather conditions in Atlanta. There was an update that delivery was delayed due to the weather. Soon I waited for further updates. I waited. And I waited. And I waited. 10 days later, the message was the same so I called and was told the same info from the app but couldn’t understand why there was no movement for 10 days under sunny skies. So after talking to a supervisor I was told 2 of the 3 are considered “lost”!! Well, when was someone going to tell ME?!! How would I have EVER KNOWN THIS WITHOUT CALLING? This is unacceptable.

    The supervisor called me the next day to say the third package is now considered lost and the merchant needs to complete paperwork. UPS loses it and everyone one else has to do something about it. And how suspicious is it that 3 packages make it to Atlanta but get lost on the way to Doraville some 30 miles away? Is there a theft problem? Should the community not use this service until that is addressed? 3 out of 4 packages lost? Did a truck get taken, burned or destroyed? Can I get answers because I don’t have my products or my money for months now. At least fix the tracking so I’m not misled to believe for weeks the packages are on the way when they are really lost.

    Dealing with UPS is a nightmare. I ordered a product from Home Depot on 1/15 It was to be delivered on 1/18. On 1/18 I received the tracking information telling me the order was out for delivery. I kept checking tracking until 9:30 pm and it kept telling me it was out for delivery and would be delivered that day. At 10:02 I checked tracking again and it said there was a delay, it was returned to UPS and would be delivered the next business day. I tried calling and using UPS virtual assistant but you can never reach anyone or get an actual information. Monday was a holiday so that meant the next business day was the 21st. On the 21st tracking said it would be delivered on the 21st between 2 and 6 pm. Again no delivery, again delayed according to weather as posted on the evening of the 21st after delivery was to have taken place. There was no weather issue. Roads are clear, no precipitation.

    Called Home Depot to cancel the order, they said there was nothing they could do. At this point, delivery was now supposed to be today 1/22. I checked tracking and again it said delivery today between 2 and 6 pm. I didn't trust this so I called UPS, it was a nightmare trying to reach a real person at UPS but finally I did reach someone and he said package would not be delivered. Today1/22, it was delayed until tomorrow 1/23 due to weather. Again no weather issues, roads clear, no precipitation. I will add tracking shows the package was delivered to the UPS station near me on 1/17 early in the afternoon and was placed on the truck for delivery that evening at 9:48.

    This station is about 15 miles from my home and there have been no weather issues for over 2 weeks and roads are completely clear and no weather issues other than it's cold. I see from other complaints with UPS that this seems to be a common issue with UPS constant delays and blame on weather issues where there are no issues. I will add that on previous deliveries with UPS I always have problems. It is delivered to the wrong address and on one occasion I had a live plant delivered clearly marked fragile live plant and the box was crushed and smashed and broken open and plant was damaged and returned. I never have any problems with FedEx or USPS. Enough with UPS, from now on if I order something to be delivered if UPS is the shipper I will not order the product.

    UPS Completely Failed – Lost My Package and Denied My Insurance Claim. I am extremely disappointed with UPS and their mishandling of my shipment. My package was delayed, and the recipient was no longer at the delivery address because they had returned to their home country the next day. I immediately contacted UPS customer service, explained the situation, and requested that the package be redirected or returned to me. I was assured they would send a driver to retrieve it, but nothing was done. To make matters even worse, UPS has now denied my claim for the insurance I paid for, citing that the package was delivered to the “correct address.” How is this acceptable when they failed to deliver it on time and knew no one was available at that address to receive it? Their refusal to honor the insurance I paid for is a blatant disregard for their responsibilities and for me as a customer.

    On top of this, they also refused my request for a Guaranteed Service Refund, hiding behind a “15-day policy” when the delay and mishandling were entirely their fault. UPS has failed on every level—timely delivery, customer service, and accountability. This ordeal has caused me significant financial loss, frustration, and inconvenience. UPS has shown they care more about policies and excuses than about resolving issues caused by their own mistakes. I will never use UPS again and strongly recommend others look elsewhere for a shipping company that values its customers and their property.

    I wouldn’t even give a 1 star if there was an option for a ZERO!! Terrible service. Kept delaying my shipment without giving any updates. Made me wait around all day for a package to be signed only to say “sorry we missed you” when they didn’t even try to ring the doorbell or knock once. And wouldn’t even let me pre-sign. People have other things to do than wait around all day to sign a package only for you to say you couldn’t get a hold of us? I had to leave the house but stayed home to sign this package that never got delivered and has been delayed for 3 days already. Aleast give timely updates!!! There’s no way to contact who’s delivering your package and when you call any UPS store, average wait time to speak to a Human is forever. Worst service ever!!!!

    Don't bother paying for overpriced overnight next day air saver. From Miami, FL to just south of Fort Worth, TX and 2 days so far but still no package. I was told last night there was severe weather in my area (which is not true, it was a gorgeous day) so the driver was unable to deliver. Today they tried telling me my package was never on the truck yesterday (although tracking showed it out for delivery) but it was on the truck today and would be delivered. Yesterday I watched the driver pass my house twice without delivering.

    The Follow my Delivery map showed him aimlessly wandering around a few miles from me, then get within 1/4 mile and head to a town 10 miles away then come back, wander around some more then head to another town. They must get paid hourly because this guy racked up the hours without delivering much. Today more of the same. The delivery time has passed and when I called I was told that was just a suggestion even to me a delayed overnight delivery should be priority. I will be looking for another carrier and I hope enough people quit using UPS that they get their act together.

    As others have stated, UPS is not delivering packages claiming there is adverse weather when there has been no reason for weather to be impacting deliveries. Specifically I have two packages for overnight delivery sitting at the local facility but not put on a truck to reach me. Both packages are clearly marked as refrigerated items so holding them for an extended period is obviously an issue. UPS was paid so they do not care that both the shipper and the recipient are out of luck. In the future, I will ensure my orders are sent via another carrier!

    My original delivery date for two shipments (three packages total) was Saturday, 1/4. While I was disappointed when they didn’t arrive, I understood the delay due to freezing rain. The delivery was rescheduled to Monday, 1/6, but again delayed—understandable given the weather. However, it was rescheduled yet again to Tuesday, 1/7.

    On Tuesday, the driver arrived but only delivered one of two boxes from the same shipment. This means the second box was on his truck, but he chose not to deliver it. I was also expecting a second shipment, but nothing from that arrived either. The delivery was rescheduled to Wednesday—nothing. Thursday—nothing. UPS claimed severe weather conditions, but we live here. We know the roads were fine. In fact, drivers were out delivering in my neighborhood, yet they didn’t come to my house!

    Finally, on Friday, the driver arrived and handed me my daughter's bag (not even related to my shipment). When I politely asked about my packages, he lied and said he didn’t have them. He admitted he had them when I told him how customer service promised my stuff would be delivered. But, he said they were “buried” on the truck. He stated he would return in 30 minutes after making other stops. I agreed and even told him he could leave the packages in the driveway if I wasn’t home. Butz, I’m sure you can imagine, he never came back. I would have gladly unloaded the truck myself just to get my items! I even received an email from UPS stating the driver was nearby, so I knew he had my packages when he originally lied and said he didn’t have them. This behavior is unacceptable—lazy and dishonest.

    To make matters worse, customer service is completely ineffective. It’s a nightmare to reach a representative, and when you finally do, no one has the authority to resolve anything. UPS needs to hold their drivers accountable and improve customer service. It’s unacceptable that paying customers are treated this way, especially when it disrupts businesses and leaves customers waiting unnecessarily.

This adds an extra 1-3 days on to every delivery since I work and can’t be home when they deliver. I have called multiple times and they say that it’s because of the lost package claim, which I don’t understand because they are at fault and I had photo proof of them delivering to a house that looks nothing like mine or any other houses on my street.

All ups does is continue to open up multiple pick up claims. Never come but have the nerve to update their system like the package was picked up. UPS is absolutely pathetic and I am still going back and forth with them as I write this. I don’t think this situation will ever be resolved. I am making a complaint to the FTC as well. This has to be considered unfair practice by a company. I also uploaded a picture of my item that I still have that they keep claiming that they already picked it up.

    UPS can not tell the truth. How can you expect them to do their job? Had a package coming. Said it was here. No it was not. I call. Was told it was delivered to the wrong address miles away. If the driver can not read address or name nor the gps fire him. Was told I would get a call. That did not happen so 4 hr later I called back. Was told a different story. 3 phone calls later I was told the driver went back and got the package from the wrong person he gave it to and it would be being delivered today so this morning I looked at the website and see they are returning it to the sender as they did not have a right address yet at every turn ups ask me my address. UPS does not care about their customers. This was jewelry for a wedding. Now it may not be here in time.

    If I could give is zero stars, that would be too much, it deserves a negative value. Summary: sent delivery date notifications 10 times and delivered zero. Meanwhile, moved the package from West Coast of Canada to Seattle, then California for delivery to Arizona, then it shows up in Kentucky and sits there for over a week.

    Customer service matches well with the above experience by keeping me on hold for two hours, not responding to my email inquiries for days. When it does respond, the answer simply is a regurgitation of the tracking status and zero explanation to what is actually going on with the package. Because of UPS, my wife did not receive her Christmas present. It's January 6th and she still does not have her "big present". Negative twenty stars for you, UPS!

    I paid $20 to get their "premium" service so I could change the delivery address of my package. However, they have no clue what's happening with my package (they say) because the tracking number was "recycled." That's ridiculous to me. I am not a person who gets a ton of packages like others I know. VERY uncomfortable to think they are conducting business in this way. What happens to someone who is expecting medical supplies or some other type of urgently needed items? In my case, it's only jeans from Old Navy. Nevertheless, I asked for a refund and quit their "premium" package one day after signing up and trying to use it the first time out. A really bad first impression.

    Let’s see if UPS decides that my personal experience and opinion qualify as “personal insults”. I will stick to the facts. With surmountable evidence that will support this review, the only way to describe my particular experience with them is negligent. It’s beyond me why review givers are limited to star selection. They are not even one star worthy.

    Now I have maintained a personal mailbox with a local UPS for a year now and I have only good things to say about that experience. As a truck driver, and a recent grandmother of a special needs baby, I live everywhere and nowhere. So having a PMB to maintain an actual address is great. If needed, the office will ship my mail wherever I need or a family member is able to pick it up and send it to me. But that’s where I draw the line, and highly recommend anyone else do the same.

    So here’s what happened…I’m a recent survivor of breast cancer. I’m still required to take medication, hormones and vitamins. My doctor and pharmacy are in Washington state. Meanwhile, I’m in Arizona taking care of my grand baby for several months. So the best, and quickest, course of action was to have my mom pick up my prescription and vitamins and ship them to me.

    To make life easy, I went onto UPS.com and purchased overnight Air Saver shipping, which was expensive. The purchase was made Dec. 29th. My receipt showed if the package was dropped off by 4:30 pm (Pacific time), on Dec. 30th, it would arrive by 9:00 pm Dec. 31st. (I considered the holiday and figured worst case scenario it would arrive Jan. 2nd).

    Well, Jan. 2nd came and the package hadn’t budged. It sat in Washington. So I called Customer Service, and received their 100% guarantee that my package would arrive in my possession the following day (Jan. 3rd) by 7:00 pm. Well, I received nothing and decided to check for any updates. What was showing now was “a mechanical failure caused a delay” and the package was in Seattle, WA. So I called Customer Service again. This was the second time I received their 100% guarantee the package would be in my possession by the morning of Jan. 4th. By the morning of Jan. 4th, I still had no package and am now currently at the Emergency Room.

    It is now the afternoon of Jan. 4th and I have rechecked the status of my overnight Air Saver shipped package. After two days of repeated, 100% guarantees from Customer Service representatives the package would be in my possession, its current status shows its located in Louisville, KY. And it is scheduled to arrive on Jan. 6th by 7:00 pm.

    Of course I called Customer Service again. The wait time was so long that I scheduled a callback. UPS called back twice and both times disconnected me. So I called back again only to wait 15 minutes to talk to an actual person. By this time, I am absolutely upset, and rightfully so. But this young man keeps insisting that I need to understand that all I need to do once I receive the package is call back for a refund on the overnight shipping I paid for. I beg your pardon, but this is far more serious than being upset about paying for overnight shipping and not receiving it. This is total negligence and this is my life. Yes I am writing this from the hospital. There are no words to describe how I am feeling about this situation. But I feel that I need to share my experience with the hopes that no one else has to go through the same situation.

When asking for a supervisor I was repeatedly told no and that if I didn’t calm down (upset because she caught an attitude and told me I wasn’t allowed to speak to supervisor) that she would end the call.

I opened tracking and it said they had made a sorting error. I spoke with customer service which assured me I’d have my package the following day which was a Friday. I looked at tracking Friday morning and it said the package had arrived at my local UPS dist center at 8:30 am so I thought I would get it that day. At 3:30 pm it still hadn’t arrived and no updates to tracking. I contacted UPS Customer service again, spoke to a woman with a strong ** accent who could only tell me how unfortunate it was, but offered no solutions.

    I then asked for a supervisor and had to hold for 22 minutes to be told that my package that was already 2 days late, would be an additional 3 days late, and also told me that my package was actually not yet at my local dist center despite tracking saying it had been there all day. Again he had no solution to offer. I despise UPS. They are overpaid, unionized employees that don’t care about you or your package. I can’t control whether these companies use UPS to ship, but I will never ship anything with them personally or professionally. I could’ve walked from OH in 11 days.

Today, checked the status. Delivery was estimated for today. Nope. UPS trucks have driven past our house several times. None have stopped. We live approximately 7 miles from the UPS center.

    I needed to return a package and had been driving around with it on my passenger seat for about a week. I went by an actual store, but it was crowded because of the holidays. I passed a UPS drop off box and I knew that the package most likely wouldn’t fit. I decided to try to force it into the box, and it got stuck. I couldn’t get it out or get it in! I knew better…but I thought I could make it work. It had a sign that stated that the pick up time was 5:00 PM. This happened on 12/24 at 16:47 PM. The scenarios ran through my mind…the slot was hanging open just enough that if someone was deliberately looking for an opportunity to steal, that it wasn’t blatantly obvious, but then I worried if the UPS driver would notice it. I sat and waited for about 20 minutes…it was the busiest day of deliveries, I’m sure! I deliberated and came to terms with myself that I had done a really stupid thing and at worst, I would be out the $200 item I was trying to ship back.

    I also thought about another person who may try to mail something…and there’s my box blocking the ability for their ability to do their business. I honestly didn’t expect for the package to show up when I decided to come face to face with my truth….was my stupidity going to cost me a significant dollar amount? If the driver did happen to notice it, was he or she disgusted at the ignorant individual who jammed up the box? I honestly didn’t expect a positive outcome when I was the problem and cause of my losses. However, I was beyond shocked and relieved to see that the package was accounted for and returned to the place it was going! Thank you so much to whomever drove the truck that day!

I was home. I was waiting and listening. No one ever knocked nor rang, and this is not a new issue with UPS for me. I cannot be home for the next several days so I won't be here to sign IF they actually come tomorrow and knock or ring. So after three failed deliveries the phone I need will be returned to the company from which I purchased it.

    I tried to contact UPS but the phone just rang though it was during business hours. I tried to address the problem online, but there is no way to do that.

    UPS is no help. Won’t deliver to my house. Won’t call me and makes me pay $5 to pick it up from their store when they couldn’t deliver it just for them to do the same thing again but I am unable to receive or pick it up at all.

    I had a package from sister to be delivered by UPS, but they changed my address &delivered to someone else. I have lived here 18+ years & local drivers know where I am. I don't understand why they can just change address, did not contact me & local UPS did not answer my 30+ calls. The 800 number was the one that told me about changing my address. I do not trust them with my packages, coming or going.

    I generally never have any problems with UPS but I ordered a pair of boots. They left Reno Nevada 5 days ago. There has been no updates. They can't tell me where my package is and they're telling me that it's going to be delivered 8 days from now!!?! So basically it's taken 14 days to get a package delivered from Nevada to North Carolina and they have no freaking clue where it is! Tracking packages is their business. They seem to not be able to do their business very well. This is really pissed me off. Especially when the agent hung up on me.

    Horrible customer service. My package was last scanned 2 miles from my home on 11/21/24 with a delivery date of 11/22/24. It hasn't been seen since. I've tried to contact them via chat feature, getting an AI bot that makes me repeat my information repeatedly, only to connect me to an agent who apologizes for not having "immediate" answers and that I should contact the sender. Same thing happens when I call the service line. Except that I get transferred several times, but still needing to repeat my information over and over. "I'm sorry we don't have an immediate answer for you." It's been a month.

    My definition of immediate is clearly different to that of UPS. I have contact the seller, who has also reached out to UPS with zero resolution. I'd like an explanation as to how a package en route to my home disappears into the ether so soundly. Any with no sense of urgency for a resolution by the responsible party. It's unacceptable if this was a one-time incident. This has happened several times.

    Please send your UPS drivers to my home so I can teach them to read and count numbers. I am house number 208, I am not house number 206, 203, 201,198, etc....I am 208. 208 is different from 203, 206, etc....It is 208. I can turn UPS around by teaching these drivers to count to 10 and read numbers on home addresses. Please send them to me for training, I do want to someday actually receive what I order.

    I had a very important document sent from my employer. It was delivered to an absolutely wrong address. The proof of delivery photo was vague, I targeted and provided absolutely no credible evidence of delivery (No house number, street sign or landmark). Contacted customer service to notify of the poor service, was told to contact sender. A delivery service should be accountable for properly making a delivery, right?

    I needed them to deliver an important package 1st thing in the AM, the packages was delayed, and then they proceeded to hold it for several days. I tried to adjust the delivery on their website but that was a bust. The website is both confusing and completely worthless, on top of that they keep wanting me to pay them money for... some service where I can... adjust my delivery? UPS is a sham. It's bad. We should put money back into the USPS and let this place rot.

    Worst service. I would highly recommend spending the extra on FedEx. I requested a delivery. It gave me 3 option with different delivery date. Logically I picked the cheapest one that would deliver within the time I needed (I needed this before a Monday for a job. I ordered it week before. Choose a delivery date of Friday or Saturday ground) so package ships then says will be delivered Saturday so check the tracking still on that Saturday. Tracking say between 2 and 6 pm so I wait and wait and wait. Nothing so I check tracking again. They changed the delivery to say, "We don't guarantee Saturday delivery. We will update estimated delivery time," and that's it so I call customer service and they just give me runaround over and over for 30 minutes. Got me nowhere and now I will not have the required equipment till who knows when. They suck at everything from customer service to timely delivery.

    I don’t recommend using UPS when shipping packages. I was supposed to get a package yesterday afternoon and the package left the Louisville facility at 3:36am on that day. Tracking showed it was to be delivered by 9pm. Package never showed up and is now showing they are delivering to usps. I live 20 minutes from the facility and no one can tell me where my package is. I recommend only using usps when shipping items. ONLY have issues with UPS. This is completely ridiculous.

    The driver was by our home 5 times around the time he was supposed to drop it off around 12 but he did not come by. We live in a secure apartment complex. So I got home at 530 pm, has not been here then I call asking about it, the rep call the distribution center and told me they would call me back. Never did. We set in our car in snow then he showed up and told me he did not have it. So I called back and talked to a supervisor. She told me that she would call me right before it gets here. So she called this morning saying that that it was 4 stops away that was over hr and a half. This is unacceptable

    On December 17, 2024, I went to our local UPS shop in Surprise, AZ, to send a Christmas gift to my son, who lives in New Mexico. The 'expected delivery date' was December 19, 2024. When tracking the package, I learned there was a "sortation issue" with the package being sent to Lubbock, TX (instead of NM). Ok, things happen. I then learned that the next day, it was in Albuquerque, New Mexico, about a 3-hour drive to Lordsburg. When I called customer service, the gentleman told me in all seriousness that they only pick up packages on Saturdays and can't deliver my package till Monday—six full days from when it was sent. To put this in perspective, I could have easily driven to New Mexico three times in 6 days. Needless to say, I will never, never, never use UPS again!

There was no attempt made to contact us at the phone number provided. Confirmed that the address provided was the correct address with the shipper but UPS refused to do anything with the package other than return it to the sender.

    Save yourself the aggravation and go with Fed-Ex or another competitor instead. A frustrating, fraudulent, and inefficient Claims Process that wasted hundreds of dollars and several hours of my life. I insured a shipment with UPS for $500, expecting peace of mind in case anything went wrong. Unfortunately, the claims process has been nothing short of a nightmare and a $600 juicer (gift for a friend) was completely demolished in transit. Completely inoperable.

    The online claims portal is riddled with issues—it doesn’t even allow you to upload and submit the additional documentation they specifically request after submitting the initial claim. After spending several hours trying to resolve this with UPS Corporate, Customer Support, and Claims, I was given conflicting advice by the UPS Store Manager (stay away from UPS Store #7817 in Fairless Hills, PA) with no real solutions. The Store Manager said she couldn't help and directed me to submit a claim online. After the 7th attempt, the claim was processed, weeks later, no resolution. They need additional documentation, which I attempted to upload onto their portal and several people can attest that there's no way to submit it. A dozen phone calls later... UPS Corporate said that the UPS Store should have helped and assisted with the claim. The phone numbers provided are useless, leading to dead ends and unhelpful responses, at best.

    It feels as though the system is deliberately designed to delay and discourage payouts for insured items, despite customers paying extra for this service. Weeks later, my claim remains unresolved, and the lack of accountability is both infuriating and disappointing. UPS Capital is their insurance company, and it's a total racket.

    BOTTOM LINE: UPS Claims/UPS Capital has been a complete nightmare, marked by broken promises, wasted time, and a lack of accountability. Despite paying for insurance in good faith, the process to resolve a claim is anything but straightforward. Endless loops of attempting to upload documents, ineffective phone support, and no resolution left us feeling dismissed and powerless. It's not just about the money—it’s the principle. This is highly unethical. Paying extra for insurance coverage only to face deliberate avoidance is infuriating and deeply unfair. If you’re considering purchasing UPS insurance for your shipment, think twice—it may not be worth the frustration.

    I had an incredibly disappointing experience with UPS. I purchased a phone on December 5th using UPS Next Day Air, as I urgently needed it for an upcoming trip. Despite this, UPS only made the first delivery attempt on December 9th — four days later and well beyond the "next day" service I paid for. On the third delivery attempt, December 11th, UPS marked the package as delivered and signed by someone named "LEON." This person is a complete stranger, and no one in my building knows who they are. It's clear the package was delivered to the wrong person or potentially stolen during delivery.

    I immediately reported the issue to both the retailer and UPS. On December 12th, UPS updated the tracking status to "investigation opened." However, as of December 20th, no resolution has been provided. I called UPS multiple times to follow up, but customer support has been unhelpful, offering no updates or timeline for resolving the issue.

    I expected much better service, especially after paying for a premium shipping option. This experience has caused significant stress and inconvenience, particularly during the holiday season, as I am still without the phone I urgently need. UPS's failure to deliver on their promises and their lack of accountability are unacceptable. I would not recommend using their services if timely and secure delivery is important to you.

    I shipped 2 gold coins from Texas to Florida. I paid over $224.00 for second day delivery and the insurance for a high value shipment. ($12,700.00). Dropped the package off at UPS store and sent it on its way. The package was opened in transit by a UPS employee and my 2 coins were stolen. They taped the package back up without my coins and sent it to its final destination, 2 days late! After the claims department investigated it the claim was approved and I was told my check would be here in 5 days. Never came! Then I called them back and they said my claim had been voided because the value of the coins was too high?!?! WHAT???? That's the whole reason I insured them!!! UPS has a thief so I wouldn't ship anything worth more than a piece of paper with them. How can they take my money for insurance and then tell me the insurance doesn't cover the items stolen by their employees. What a scam!!!
