FedEx
Reviews and Complaints

Today it’s just another disgraceful delivery from FedEx or it’s subcontractors.

My Chewy delivery (recurring every three weeks) is thrown on my porch blocking my door. Now I must disassemble the door to retrieve the boxes. WTF is it that hard to place them so maybe I can get out of my house?

Ring video shows the driver tossing them “at” the porch.

Really if I performed my job as such I would have been terminated. If you are unhappy with the job requirements find something you would enjoy doing and don’t make the shipper take the heat for your miserable attitude.

I had a big event for our ceo . I had made custom signage for . Valued at over $900.

I scheduled a pick up for Friday the 11th for 2 day delivery . The event was Tuesday the 15th.

I placed my packages downstairs for pick up at 11.30am. I went down to package room at 12.30pm and they were gone. I presumed they had been picked up. At 4.30pm a fed ex driver came to pick up. He told me fwd ex had not picked up yet. I called fed ex , they said they hadn’t picked up. I thought my packages had been stolen . I paid $200 to my building to check the security cameras . It showed a female fed ex driver taking my packages . I kept calling fed ex . They kept telling me they had not collected them. I called all through the weekend. Finally on Monday , after I sending the video footage they admitted that a ground pick up driver had taken my packages in error. But they apologized and promised they would rush my packages and still get them there by Tuesday in time for my event. At that point I told them I could rush reorder my items and have them redelivered in time - but they promised I would receive . I was following the tracking and when I landed in Austin , the tracking still showed that my packages were in New York. I called again . Again was promised would get my packages . Needless to say, I didn’t get my packages in time . I got them Wednesday . Day after the event . The event was a mess , I nearly got fired . I called fed ex - they promised compensation . Ha ! Now , they have denied not only any compensation but also denied refund on my shipping costs ! Saying their two day shipping actually does not guarantee two day shipping and they are not going to refund me .

Date of Complaint: Fri, 05/06/2022

I expected a medication that I require to be delivered from the pharmaceutical company, via FedEx, on 5/5/2022. This medication aids my lung function and breathing capacity, cutting my need for supplemental oxygen from, 24 hrs every day to half that time each day (overnight), in addition to emergency exacerbations. Every day delivery is delayed is consequential to my well being.

On 5/6/2022, I called the pharmaceutical company's automated delivery tracking service to get updated information. The service stated that the medication had been delivered by FedEx, to 5#### ### **, *******, MN 5### (my full home address), on 5/5/2022, at 3:54 pm. It also provided a tracking number, which I used to find complete information.

This is what I found. (All possible identifying information has been coded,)

TRACKING NUMBER: 2###########,

FROM: Med***** ***** *****, #### E ##** ** * ***** *****, SD, US, 57104

TO: ******** ****** (my first & last name), 5### ### **, *******, MN 5#### (my full home address)

REFERENCE: #######**## SHIPPER REFERENCE: #######**##

SHIP DATE: Wed 5/04/2022 05:39 PM,

DELIVERED TO: Residence,

PACKAGING TYPE: Your Packaging,

ORIGIN: ***** *****, SD, US, 57104

DESTINATION: *******, MN 5#### (my resident city, state & zip code)

SPECIAL HANDLING: Deliver Weekday, Residential Delivery, ASR

NUMBER OF PIECES: 1

TOTAL SHIPMENT WEIGHT: 16.00 LB (MY NOTE: The box contains only one pre-filled syringe, requiring refrigeration. The reason the pkg is so large & heavy in relation to its contents is because it is packaged in a Thermosafe Insulated Box, with special packing & cooling material to maintain the required temperature during overnight shipment & delivery.)

SERVICE TYPE: Priority Overnight Delivery

PROOF OF DELIVERY

DELIVERED TO: (the same "Ship To" address shown above and on the pkg shipping label, which is my full home address.)

SIGNED FOR BY: * ****** (initial of my first name and my full last name)

I next spoke to a rep from FedEx Customer Support who said that the driver was "new" and had delivered the package to the wrong address, describing the GPS location to me, which I deduced was the next neighbor down from us. How the driver could have driven past our home, twice, and not seen the large house numbers on both sides of the mail box, at the end of our driveway, is beyond me, but, apparently, he managed that quite well. The CS rep went on to tell me that the time for the driver to “be in my area” had passed, and, therefore, my package could not be retrieved and redelivered until Monday. I explained to her, again, that the package contained a medical syringe, which was time and temperature sensitive, and I could not wait until Monday. She asked if I knew the neighbors well enough to get the package myself. I believe I told her I didn't know them since they'd just recently moved there, but I'm not sure of that. What I am sure of is telling her that I could not imagine any of the neighbors signing my name to a delivery and then not calling here. She said that the delivery was a residential release and did not require a signature. By this time, I was admittedly angry with the whole FedEx experience (which, I must say, was pretty much in line with past FedEx delivery and customer service experiences). I told her that was not true, that these pharmaceutical deliveries ALWAYS require an adult signature (indicated by the "ASR" on the package's shipping label). She had no response to that. I can't remember exactly what was said next, but at some point, I told her the neighbors would be at work all day, but I would try to get the package as soon as I could since I really had no choice. She then asked me to call her and let her know if I got the package. I asked her why I would do that since she wouldn't do anything to help me if I didn't get it. She said, "Well, I don't want to send a driver out there if you get the package yourself, do you get that?", to which, I responded, "Well, I really don't care about your inconvenience, do you get THAT?" She started to say, "Ma'am!", I cut her off, told her I had nothing else to say, that I had to go find my medicine before I ended up in the Emergency Room!” and hung up.

I did eventually retrieve my package, which involved me getting portable O2 tank, getting dressed, going to the neighbors, knocking on both doors, eventually going into their garage, finding the box, and taking it, despite them not being home...feeling like a thief! They do not park their cars in the garage and, obviously, had no idea the package was in there. I will call them tomorrow.

To wrap up, this is what I experienced for a single delivery from FedEx:

1) I received the pharmaceutical, special handling package a day late, which caused considerable stress and physical discomfort to me as I began the process of tracking it down and going to get it. As I told FedEx Customer Service rep, we are not talking about an Amazon package here, this is a medically-necessary, time and temperature-sensitive item.

2) The driver delivered the package to the wrong address, even though doing so meant he had to drive past our mailbox, at the end of our driveway, TWICE (coming and going), PLUS a County sign close to the mailbox, both clearly showing our large, reflective house number, #####, on both sides.

3) The driver left the box (a large “Thermosafe Insulated Shipper” box) in an unattached garage, at the wrong address, and left no note on the house to alert the residents that it was there, despite numerous box labels clearly indicating that the contents required special handling. (Labels on the box included: TEMPERATURE-SENSITIVE PRODUCT; HANDLE PROMPTLY; REFRIGERATE UPON ARRIVAL; PROTECT FROM FREEZING; FRAGILE; THIS SIDE UP)

4) The delivery information, the shipping box, AND the mailing label clearly indicated this shipment was an "ASR" (adult signature required), ”Priority Overnight Delivery”. The shipping label also included my phone number, easily accessible to the driver should he/she have problems or questions, such as WHERE DO YOU LIVE?! The driver negligently ignored all of that information, as well as the numerous labels affixed to the outside of the box, which, again, indicated the contents required special handling and immediate attention.

5) It appears to me that the FedEx driver, with intention, falsely indicated that I had signed for receipt of the delivery. Not only did he not receive MY signature, he did not receive ANY signature for the delivery, adult or otherwise! When I brought this to the attention of the Customer Service rep, she told me that it was a residential release delivery and did not require a signature, another false assertion.

6) The Customer Service rep's message was quite clear, that retrieving and redelivering my package was an inconvenience and would not be addressed until next week. Her overall handling of the situation was as if it was an annoyance for her, brought about by me, the customer, whose scheduled, medical delivery was handled with reckless indifference by a FedEx driver who displayed gross disregard of policies governing pharmaceutical shipments of this type. Not once did the CS rep apologize on behalf of FedEx or give even the smallest offer of assistance or concern.

So, what part of this experience is within reason for FedEx, or any delivery service, entrusted with shipments that are vital to consignee and shipper?

I have a camera doorbell and FED Ex states they deliver to my door and don't, they lie.

FED EX doesn't deliver packages at all I have a doorbell camera and can prove they never deliver packages and lie to customers just like me.

[protected] tracking number I am home due to an injury and have a camera FED ex never delivered the package and lied. They never made an attempt.

[protected] tracking number I was home and FED EX never delivered the package at all and it is being sent back to my job.

[protected] tracking number FED EX never made an attempt to deliver and it is being sent back to the company.

[protected] tracking number - this supposes to be in transit and delivered on Friday. I will let you know on 5 6 2022

I have lived in this house at this address since 2017. For the first 3 years packages were delivered promptly without issue. For the last two years and currently getting worse Fedex trucks can no longer find my house. My address is Chillicothe rd but my driveway is on Hinkle st. Packages are being left at neighbors houses. A package was suppose to be delivered Sunday but it was returned because driver could not find house, it happened again with the same package Monday. Tuesday I saw the Fedex truck sitting on Chillicothe not knowing where to go. I had to run across my yard and catch him before he drove away again. I ended up getting caught in the rain. Today, Wednesday, it happened again with a different package. I saw the Fedex truck sitting on Chillicothe rd not knowing where to go. It pulled away before I could get out the door and run across the yard, and was taken back to the distribution center. It is getting very frustrating. My number [protected]. I need you help. Keith

On 5/01/2022 a Fedex truck arrived at my residence to deliver a package. My ring camera clocked it at 11:34am. The driver dropped off the package and went back to his truck. We had heard a loud pop and a cracking noise, we looked outside to see the Fedex truck driving off. I went outside to investigate and discovered my mailbox had been damaged. The wooden post is split down the middle and the metal box is bent up so bad it won't close completely. On my ring camera I have the date and time of the truck pulling up and less than 10 minutes later another video without the truck and the mailbox damaged. The issue is that the post is on a concrete sidewalk and would not be easily replaced.

Had a package shipped with Fedex ground on 4/23/2022 from Long Beach CA to New Jersey. Fedex tracking showed delivery would be on 4/29. Package arrived at Fedex destination on 4/30 (Saturday). Now Fedex tracking showed delivery as "pending". Wasn't delivered the next business day (Monday). On Monday night called Fedex customer service and was told delay was due to large volume of shipments at delivery location, and that delivery would be by Wednesday 5/3. WTF. Even USPS would have been faster. Don't count on Fedex if you need a definite delivery timeframe.

I am so sick and tired of Fedex packages coming late or damaged.

Several times I have ordered from ShopGoodWill out of Indiana. They send it out on a Tuesday or a Wednesday and it gets to Commerance City Colorado and sits for days. I will first be told it will be here Saturday or Sunday. Arriving early.

Then and update will come through pending. No scheduled delivery.

It will then update and get delivered M-W.

What the hell? A week to get a 2-3 delivery? I am so tired of this. It costs an arm and leg to get it shipped. Esp. since the Goodwill sites also charge handling fee.

I just had another package from Fedex yesterday that they didn't leave since they said no one was home and had sent me a text.

NO my husband and I were home. And no doorbell rand and NO text from Fedex.

Also no reason it shouldn't have been left. It didn't need to be signed for.

Yes it was windy. So stick it between the doors or put off to the left side of step.

Now today am still waiting for my SGW package. And called them to find out where it's at.

Heres what it says: Tuesday 4/26 Sent info to Fedex. 3:13 pm

Wed. 4/27 Arrived at 3:51 Indianapolis IN

4/27 1:45pm in transit Greenwood IN

4/28 Abilene KS

Friday 4/29 12 pm Commerce. City CO

Sat 7:16 pm Commerce City CO

4/1 Sunday 7:17 am Commerence City CO

All those say in Transit.

UPdated delivery Pending.

Initially expected Sat 4/30

How can my package be sitting in Commerence City for 3 days now but it's in transit?

No heres the kicker

I am 1 hr and 6 minutes away.

But the shipping station is in Loveland CO which is 52minutes away from

Commerence City. And I am 28 minutes away from Loveland.

I could drive my car and go get it. But no one knows where it is since it's in transit. And why should I? I paid them to deliver it.

Now if it comes tomarrow which I doubt because they have to process it and get it on the Loveland truck.

So maybe Tuesday?

It's been an hour away since Friday. This is unexcuseable.

4 to 5 days late and a hour away.

The CEO can afford a football team but can't get his packages delivered in a decent time frame.

One full week to get a package delivered. Also my husband paid for 2 day delivery $55 a few weeks ago and it took 5 days to get here.

No refund because he was told that Fedex doesn't guarantee times anymore.

So we wasted $55 but the fat cat still gets paid?

I sure would hate to be shipping live animals through them because they would all starve to death.

Friday at 12pm an hour away. Today is Sunday and it is still pending update.

Does the CEO use his own company to deliver? I bet his get to him on time.

Some places are charging $16 fedex rates for packages. Double what the items cost. Florida to CO. For each item purchased. I refuse to use those sites. I get ssdi $900 a month and these costs and delays are killing me.

delivery t/[protected] ... was messaged that an attempt to deliver was made on 04/30/2022 at 9:53AM. I was home and I have two small dogs that will bark at any noise at the door. I live at the last house on a dead end street. There was no truck and no attempt to deliver. The customer service app does nothing but repeat the message that delivery attempt failed. I'm like most of your other customers. I will not make purchases in the future from businesses that use Fedex delivery. Very disappointing in every way possible.

This is the 3rd time that this has happened with Fedex for a package that required a signature for delivery. I have been home waiting by my door all morning+afternoon when I receive an email saying delivery was attempted and failed. This is just a lie. I go out to check and there isn't even an attempted delivery notice at all. No delivery was ever made. This keeps happening. I feel like whoever is delivering sees that my package will require a signature and just decides to not make any attempt and to lie and say that they did to avoid the time that it would take. I have NEVER had this successfully happen. No delivery person has ever come knock on my door and ask for a signature. There have only ever been lies about the attempt. This is frustrating because I pay delivery fees clearly for all of these packages but I have to receive it almost a week late due to "failed" delivery attempts and I have to walk to a Fedex place to pick up the actual package. This is ridiculous and unacceptable.

12 of April 2022 they attempted delivery and even though they were supposed to leave the package at the door they failed to do so. then they call me leaving messages that i need to pick up the package myself. i went to the place they told me to go to pick up my parcel but the parcel seems to be missing. then my girlfriend called them and found out that package is in their distribution center in another city. this is the last time we use fedex.

I own a clothing store at a busy outdoor mall. I was expecting a box of children's clothing to be delivered from Fedex. They delivered them at 7:03 P.M. we close at 5 P.M. The package was stolen overnight. Now I am out product and over $500.00. Their "customer service" is saying it is not their fault because the tracking says delivered, even though we weren't open to receive it!

Stayed home from work to sign for a package. Took the day off. [protected]) At 2:52pm got a text stating no one was home and delivery attempt was made. BS! I was home all day. When I called to complain I was told that the driver did stop, maybe I wasn't there. Ummmm I was home ALL day ! No one came to the door - I can see the road from my window and would see anyone that approached the door. The customer service rep said I could have it held and pick it up myself. Um excuse me - I paid to have it delivered. She stated the delivery was scheduled again for tomorrow. I told her to hold it at a location of my choice because I cannot take off another day of work just for their delivery driver to lie again and not deliver my package. If you do not want to do your job then find another one. I am out a days pay and still no package. I do not understand how they can do this and no one seems to care that the employee lied.

I paid $40 to have my tax information overnighted to my accountant, so he would receive it by March 31.

My accountant said Fedex kept trying to deliver the package during non-business hours when he wasn't there, and then finally told him that they were sending it back to me.

I received it on April 18 - so now my tax return is late. Fedex refused to even refund my $40 !

Never trusting Fedex again.

FedEx : Something needs to be done about the blatant lying that is taking place by your delivery drivers. You must know that this is becoming the normal MO for your drivers. I can't believe that FedEx Corporate is okay with this type of behavior, or business practice. If a FedEx driver try's to deliver a package and I'm not home, then you know what, It's okay to use that excuse that the package was undeliverable due to no one being available to accept it, but when I've been home all day and I begin to become curious because NO ONE has been at my door all day, and I don't have a door tag, but "tracking cleary says" Not deliverable due to one one being at the business or home. Then this is a problem, when blatant lying is happening across the board. FedEx Corporate please do something to regain the trust of your customers both from the B2B B2C space. There are other choices.

Am about to receive two shipments. I am just waiting at home for two days as it says I need to sign the package. Calling customer service is equally ineffective.

Saturday (4/23/2022) - I am waiting at home. Then I get message "they tried to deliver but customer not available". That was total lie. I called customer service, then I after half an hour and one escalation to manager, I am told that they didnt load it into the truck.

Sunday (4/24/2022) - my tracking status says it will be deliver today. I am waiting at home. I called customer care to make sure I receive it. They said they dont know the time but it will be delivered today.  after waiting for hours I get message "unable to deliver". I called customer service and they said the information on tracking page is wrong and it will be delivered on monday.

Here I am waiting for 2 days at home. Delivery people lying and customer service is clueless and giving random answers.

Chemo drugs were shipped on Thursday 04/21/2022, and were to be delivered by noon Friday 04/22/2022. They were not delivered. Tracking says they were in the Richland MS distribution center at 7:15AM on 04/22/2022 (15 miles from my home).

When I called on Friday evening, I was told they would be delivered by noon Saturday 04/23/2022. They were not delivered.

Now I am told they will be delivered by noon Monday 04/25/2022.

Does anyone want to lay odds on delivery happening by noon Monday.

By the way, after using their voice response system it appears AI does not mean "artificial intelligence at Fedex. It appears to mean"actual ignorance".

Today I collected a medium sized box I shipped from myself in SC to myself in ME via FedEx.

When I received the box I noticed the tape sealing it had been replaced. The box had been opened and resealed.

When I got home and opened the box I discovered the contents had ALSO been opened and resealed with clear box-tape (for packing boxes to be shipped).

No notes. No explanation.

Weird. Invasive. Unacceptable.

I called to inquire about a package I was to receive. The automated system gave me incorrect information compared to what I could see online and I wanted to get a live person to help resolve a issue. The system would not transfer me to an agent instead it stated that no other information was available and that it would not transfer me to an agent. Instead it hung up on me. I called back and the system was able to recognize my number again and again told me it would not transfer me. I had to call back 2 more times for a total of 4 calls to speak to a live agent.

I ordered a very expensive machine which was to be delivered to me in 5 days shipper FEDEX. On a previous occasion I had ordered from the same company a different machine and was delivered to me in 5 days. Going back to my original complaint why I'm writing this The item was shipped on 4/8/2022. I got a text on my phone that it was being delivered early which would be 4/12/2022. Well low and behold that day came and no delivery. The box sat in a terminal in Edison, NJ from 4/11 -4/14 They never attempted to correct it. I had to get the company that shipped it involved 2xs. The second time they gave them no reason why they screwed up the shipping. I'll tell you why some dingle berry put the box on the wrong belt. I still have not got this box and its 4/18/2022 WHERE IS IT FEDEX? I'am beyond livved. Oh and they said you will see movement that's a laugh it departed AZ shows nothing after that. You would think you would see the next destination it went to NOPE. SO where is it? Now I have to get the company involved again in this. FEDEX you Suck! Lets see how long and if I ever get this box.
