FedEx
Reviews and Complaints

I paid big money for a Saturday delivery from fedex. The package was an overnight Priority shipment! In the package WAS LIVE salt water fish! It was due to be delievered at 10:30am! After 12:00 noon had passed I went onto the fedex tracking site to track my shipment again. The site said "Customer did not respond, left door tag" There was absolutly NO DOOR TAG/note left on my door or any where on my property! When I called fedex to get them to "re-deliver" my package I was told that there were no more drivers out for the rest of today and that I would have to pick it up at the warehouse or wait for MONDAY to have it delievered! I obviously had to pick it up as my LIVE FISH would be dead by monday! The FedEX women that I had to talk to ( 3 of them...) all said that the driver stop by and no one answered my door and that she left a note. There was NO NOTE, I was also expecting this package so my front DOOR was OPEN from 10am til Noon when I had called FEDEX. NO DRIVER EVER CAME BY! BUT FEDEX REPS. SAID i WAS THE LIAR! THE CUSTOMER IS THE ONE AT FUALT! I WILL NEVER SHIP ANY THING WITH FEDEX EVER!

I would like to know if this is legitate or a scam? Have I won that money?

Two families worth of Christmas gifts shipped via FedEx did not arrive as shipped on Monday, Dec. 22nd. When I called FedEx told me the driver had delivered it to the wrong address. They gave me the address is was supposedly shipped to, and told me to try to go get it there (isn't that their job?). My sister went to that address, it was an empty lot. Long story short . . . . After only a few days, FedEx tells me that there is nothing they can do, that it's lost. The didn't even try. Their best attempt was to ask the driver if he remember delivering it . . . .yeah, right at Christmas time . . . . . seriously! The sad thing is that there were items in there that can't be replaced (hand-made items that tooks hours and hours to make and very expensive Senior pictures). You'd think that if you wanted something to be sure to arrive, you'd send it FedEx, but I guess not.

As an aside, my sister sent her stuff to us via US mail and it arrived in 2 days!

Look what I've got:

The best measure of a company is what happens when things go wrong. I have used FedEx for over 10 years - on Ebay which does not support FedEx in their shipping tools. Though I eventually was paid (less than I asked for), the ordeal was at times laughable. This is the first time an item has been damaged in shipment. Fine. Their handling of it was horrible. I sent a letter detailing the experience with no response from them. Here are the things I had to go through.

1. When I first called I was told that a damage call tag could be issued by either myself or the recipient and it could be returned to either one of us.
2. I had to call three times to get the correct claim form because there were old addresses showing up on the copy sent to me.
3. The recipient scheduled a damage call tag for Friday Nov 14. The person who took the information scheduled it as a regular call tag, so he had to cancel the pickup and reschedule the damage call tag.
4. Your inspectors must need glasses because they did not find the damage which was completely obvious.
5. A replaceable part was damaged on the contents, a musical instrument. I ordered the part and sent it to the recipient. Given the information in item 1, he scheduled for the damage call tag to be returned to him.
6. The stick showed up on my doorstep two hours before I was to leave for a week long trip. I called and was repeatedly told that damage call tags are always returned to the sender. Both the person I first spoke with and the person handling the claim seemed to think by repeating this would somehow help me. When I told them I don’t need to hear it again, they got testy with me. It’s not my fault I was given wrong information
7. It was during this phone call I found out the claim was denied due to item 4. I challenged it and was told I could have an on-site inspection (which I was told you did not do in the first place, huh?). Of course I had to wait over one week since I was leaving town.
8. The item is a musical instrument. The recipient had scheduled non-refundable lessons and missed four of them due to this ridiculous run around. He lost $220, and I have refunded him $200. I faxed an additional form with an increased claim amount of $500 which was ignored.
9. The claims person assigned to this did not return my phone calls.

Since it is easier to use UPS or USPS on Ebay I guess I will do so. FedEx doesn't seem to care.

I had 4 boxes delivered next day from Tampa, Florida to Manhattan. All the packages are reported by FedEx tracking as having arrived in Newark, and 2 of the boxes were delivered on time. Unfortunately, FedEx can't be bothered to deliver the other 2 boxes for another 2 days. Having paid for next day delivery, you would expect FedEx to at least put some effort in. The boxes are sitting less than an hours' drive from my home, and it's going to take them a further 2 days to deliver something that should have been next day. FedEx are truly useless.

One more scam!

Compliments of the day,

I will feel no guilt if you final forfeit your Bank Draft worth of $800, 000.00(USD), so it is now left for you to decide if you want to pay for the safe keeping fee of your parcel or not...

I would [not?] blame you for your skeptism considering the high level of internet scams these days, because alot of innocent victims have been scamed/frauded using the names of lottery companies, but i think my explanations and send you your shippment details should have removed all worries from your mind by now, because you are about to be richer immediately you send the safe keeping fees.

i will want to let you know that the way you have choosen in making the payment is against our policy, as far that the parcel is with us in west africa, that means the payment will be send to west africa. You are our beneficiary, you have nothing to worry about, you should count yourself very lucky, I for once have never be so lucky like this.

So you are hereby inform to think about this very well in order for you not to loose this great opportunity which millions of people are looking for now you have it in your hands and you are playing with it, I believe I have told you what you need to know and how to go about it, and if you know you are not confortable with this please do inform this office so that your funds can be return back. Thanks for yours understanding.

Yours Sincerely,

2008 FedEx INTERNATIONAL.

FedEx were supposed to deliver a package to a house guest of mine. Instead of bringing the package to the house, they telephoned to say they were leaving it at the local post office, which is 20 minutes away by car, and usually involves waiting in a queue for 40 minutes. When my house guest finally got to the post office window, she was given the package with no further ado. Several days later, when she had left the country, I received a call from FedEx saying there had been customs duty pay (on 3 Obama Tshirts and some Obama stickers), and they expected me to pay. I explained that the recipient of the package was no longer in Italy and that I certainly wasn't going to pay, not least because if they had delivered to the door, as they were paid to do, this problem wouldn't have arisen. Four weeks later I receive a letter with a bill from FedEx, addressed to me. I have returned it unopened to their Milan office. I would like to lodge a formal complaint about their disservice and prevarication.

I was processing my international document shipment on Fedex.com and I noticed that Fedex now does not allow to request a signature from the recipient. It defaults to "no signature required". I selected "Documents No Commercial Value" and I do need a signature, cause these are legal papers that need to be signed for. No such option at Fedex.com. Indeed Fedex.com never has been a user-friendly website. I called Fedex international support, they told me that I'm wrong, that there is an option for a signature... well, there is none. The female rep. kept arguing and wasn't very friendly, kept interrupting me not letting me explain the problem, then the Fedex representative put me on hold and I waited exactly 30 minutes before I hung up. Then I called again, the other lady was polite and transferred me to "Cindy" who had the same voice as the one
that out me on hold forever, yet she said she's not the same person. She kept repeating that it's not true and that there is an option for a signature and that I must enter a value, but I kept explaining to her that documents do not have a monetary value yet I need a signature of the recipient, and I entered a value and more problems popped-up and she put me on hold and soon after she hung up... I then went to UPS.com and shipped my shipment with no problems with documents and a required signature and even a delivery confirmation option was here. I don't mean to use UPS all the time, I need o use Fedex too, but after several such experiences I'm thinking of removing Fedex from my company's shipping options. Now especially that Fedex has been spamming us with "DHL's gone, use Fedex" messages, while we never used DHL let alone within the USA.

FEDEX INTL>>>LICENCE OF FEDERAL EXPRESS CO-OPERATION.

I went to a Fedex Kino's location to scan 2 documents. Had the worst experience of my life and came back seething. Here is the list of things that went wrong:

1. First of all, no signs anywhere stating where the scanner was. I had to hunt around the whole store till I found one.
2. When I looked at the prices, it was 40 cents per minute for the workstation with the scanner.
3. That workstation had atleast 4 different kinds of software for scanning documents, with NO instructions on which one to use.
4. 3 out of the 4 did not work, wasting my time and racking up the mins on the workstation.
5. When I asked a Fedex employess who came and sat at the workstation next to me, she told me to use the 4th one and looked at me as if "You should know that". which I obviously couldn't have known. Any software installed should be working, otherwise not be installed.
6. Thsi same employee acted annoyed, even though all she was doing was durfing the net!
7. Next I needed to get some passport photos taken. When I stood in line for 15 mins to get the attention of the customer service people, no one came to the desk and even though I could see some of them in the back, they did not even bother to come and ask me if they could help me with something.

I would liek to say they have lost a customer forever, but given that they are the only ones around that do all office document services around here. I don't know what my options are!

I HOPE FEDEX READS THIS!

I am incensed! I had a package 1st attempeted delivery on Nov. 5. On that evening, when I received the door tag after coming home from work, I immediately called Fedex to ask that the package be re-delivered on Saturday, Nov. 8. Well I was told by the rep on Nov. 5 that I would probably still have a re-delivery attempt on on the next day, Nov. 6, but that they will mark the package for delivery on Saturday Nov. 8. Well as the rep told me, Fedex did attept re-delivery on Nov. 6; they also attempted re-delivery on Nov. 7, despite my call to them. I called back again on Nov. 7 and explained that I called on the 5th, yet I still got a door tag on my door marked, "FINAL DELIVERY." The rep I talked to on Nov. 7 still insisted that I would get the package on Saturday Nov. 8, as I requested. Well, that did not happen. Sadly, at approx. 3:20 PM on Saturday Nov. 8, I called Fedex AGAIN, as it was getting late, and still no delivery. I was then informed that the package was not out for delivery, as it had been attempted delivery 3 TIMES! I explained that the point of my calling them on Nov. 5 was to ask that the package be re-delivered on Saturday to keep the driver from trying to deliver the package when I would not be at home. The rep that I talked to on Saturday informed me that the information never filtered down from customer service to the driver!

So, part two of this is I immediately ask to speak to a supervisor, and then I was transferred to Fedex's Customer Expierience Center in Cincinnati. I talked to Tina. Tina was nice, and after I explained this fiasco to her, she was appologetic. I asked her if the package could still be re-delivered for Tuesday Nov. 11, as it is a holiday, and I would be at home. She said that she would put it in the system, and she contacted the terminal to mark it for re-delivery on Tuesday Nov. 11.

Now it is Tuesday AM around 10:20. I decide to call fedex to confirm that my package is out for delivery. Boy was I met with a surprise. I was informed by a lousy rep in my terminal that the package, "would not be re-delivered because the driver already attempted delivery three times." I told the rep that I called last week to have this delivery scheduled, Fedex dropped the ball, so get this guy out here to do his job! Well, she told me, "Fedex drivers are independent contractors and they can refuse to deliver after they have attempted delivery.

So, to make a long story end...Fedex basically told me, "Yeah, we screwed up, but due to outsourcing, this is the best customer service we can provide. We can not make the driver come back out to your residence. The driver has told us that he had to walk up 3 flights of stairs, the boxes are heavy, his truck is now full and he is not re-delivering the package, even though it was our fault that the driver did not get the message that you called."

I guess I should become an independent contractor so I can tell my employer what I will and will not do! I now officially hate fedex. Big business in this country with all this damn outsourcing is out of control. No one is accountable anymore, and these businesses are so large that they really don't care what happens.

I was waiting all day for two FedEx packages today, October 24, 2008. Here are the tracking numbers:

My address is on a very large and well-known street in Chicago (Irving Park Road) and the building has very clear numbers above the door. I left a note downstairs to ring the top buzzer outside (which also has my name) or to call me (and left my number) and that I would come downstairs immediately.

I received the first package before noon. The driver called me before coming to the building (from a nearby address) and I met him downstairs. This worked out great.

The second package never came so I went to the FedEx web site to track it at 5:30pm where it said the following, "5:01pm customer not at home or business closed." I WAS AT HOME AND THIS FEDEX DRIVER IS TELLING LIES! HE NEVER EVEN CAME HERE TODAY. There was no note. They are supposed to leave a sticker or a door hanger, but there was nothing.

I called customer service and they very nonchalantly explained to me that I would just have to wait till tomorrow. So now I have to alter my plans and spend another whole day waiting for this package!

This is a horrible, horrible service. There is not even a complaint field at FedEx.com, anywhere on the site, for customer benefit and quality improvement. It is quite clear that FedEx does not care at all about its customers.

Fedex posted date on internet said would be delivered sat. Oct.25, 2008., called fedex and was told that package was on truck for delivery sat.. I missed work and stayed home for delivery.. Package was not delivered. Called sun. 10/26 & was told that no one was home for del. On sat. This is not true, I was home all day.,. Called monday still no package called fedex again to complain got noware like talking to the wall. Some one should be fired over this. My packages do not need signature the usual drop them off at front door. Also I was home all day. Fedex said no one was home, well why didn't he leave the package at the front door?
I lost a day work for some ones lie.

I got this messages in my e mail:
Greetings!
I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank
Draft of $535.000.00 (five hundred and thirty five thounsand United States
Dollars), but I did not hear from you since that time. Then I went and

of the country for a 3 Months Course and I will not come back till end of
december.What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE

because of the expiring date.For your information, I have paid for the
delivering Charge,

The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE to deliver your
Draft direct to your postal Address in your country is $120USD)only being
Security Keeping Fee of the Courier Company so far.Again, don't be deceived
by anybody to pay any other money except $120USD) Dollars you are to pay
the Security Keeping Fee.

Can you do something about this scheme?

Fedex delivered my package today & left a sweet little door tag stating that they attempted to deliver my package, but no one is home so? Either pick it up or re-attempt to deliver tom. Let's rewind, I was taking a shower when i heard the doorbell (oops) i couldn't answer the door... that's when i notice the door tag & called the 800 immediately. Spoke to an associate & a reattempt will happen. Waited for 4 hrs, called FedEX, message of reattempt never processed. WHAT? Spoke to 2 more until the manager. Basically, all that i spoke to lied. Excuse-VILLE!
