“FedEx Delivery: Swift Service with Some Shortcomings”

guillermo m.
5/1/24

My encounters with FedEx delivery have been a mixed bag. On the plus side, FedEx offers fast and efficient delivery services, often delivering packages ahead of schedule. Additionally, their tracking system provides detailed updates, allowing customers to stay informed about their shipments' whereabouts. However, there are areas for improvement. FedEx's delivery reliability can be inconsistent, with some packages experiencing delays without clear explanations. Furthermore, customer service responsiveness can vary, with some representatives providing helpful assistance while others offer less-than-satisfactory support. Overall, while FedEx excels in speed, improvements in reliability and customer service would further enhance the delivery experience.

“3 of 6 misdelivered”

Marion S.
9/9/24

Their deliveries are hopeless. I have no choice in using Fedex, Chewy ships with them. Not only do they misdeliver 50% of the time, but the times it does get here they left the package on the street in the weather and bait for porch pirates. Getting satisfaction, provided you have fooled the computer into letting you talk to a real person, with customer service is non-existent. We will let you know in 48 hrs they say. NOT. File a claim for restitution with the sender who will contact us they say, only takes six weeks. I have to do all the work, in short. Hopeless!

Very horrible delivery service. I paid for an overnight priority express $120. I paid for it on a Tues. It was to be picked up and delivered to us on a Friday. We had a family gender reveal planned for the next day. Family coming from out of town, food, photographer etc. it was all ruined by our package not coming. We had to spend hrs and hrs on friday night trying find our package with Fedex on phone. We would explain the whole situation and the rep would sound like a robot and say sorry for that and could never explain where or why we did jot have our package. Some would say due to weather, some would say truck trouble then put on hold and drop the call! Or say transfer to someone else and drop the call! I even went into town to store and she could not find it as she said it was first scanned on Friday afternoon in GA! It was to be at our place by then. So they completely ruined our family reveal. We had to come up with a plan B and wasted the over $450 in products that are now useless. We can not use them and could not get a refund. The package then came on Monday 5 days later! Fedex dishonestly put another label over our priority overnight express label. We have video of us peeling their label back. So they tried make it look like it was on time. They do not let you explain on website and takes forever to get a real person. We were told file a claim. We just got that back that they denied staying we received our package! They do not have common fellow feeling to understand we purchased priority overnight express for a pickup on thurs and deliver on friday. The package was picked up on thurs. The people we made purchase from has proof of that. Where it went from there appears did not leave GA till friday afternoon. Fedex denies that driver must scan package at pick up and someone did not do thier job and package just sat in GA all that time. Noone ever is responsible and fedex may think they are a global company this doesnt matter. But I will no longer ever use them again and I will share my story with everyone. Large companies have gone under by lack of customer service. Then they had the nerve to be calling me every day to try sell me business shipping since I had to make an account. No I dont want that I would of liked my package delivered on time, instead they ruined our family gender reveal and threw out over $575 of our hard earned money right out the window. With fuel and groceries at record highs we cant afford to waste this. We were trying to help throw a nice gender reveal for our kids who have been thru alot.

FedEx from delivery to online customer service is the worse shipper ever!

I was supposed to receive a package from chewy yesterday. Stayed home to accept it. 11:46am I receive a text message "package delivered". Interesting, because the only way to deliver it would be for me to buzz in the delivery person into the building, I Ran down 4 flights, perhaps it was left in the street. No, it was not. Called the shipper and FedEx. The picture on my FedEx account showed a completely different lobby, not mine. FedEx left my package in the wrong building, somewhere in New York City. I opened a lost package case with FedEx. I was told that the driver could not go to retrieve the package right away because, different stories, he already went home, he was delivering other packages, make your pick…Later in the afternoon I got a call from FedEx to find out, unreal, what color was my building and how many floors were there? FedEx loves to waste peoples time apparently.

This morning I called customer service to find out where was my package. I asked for a supervisor. 4 times I was switched to a "tracing unit", they refused to switch me 4 times to a supervisor. No idea where they left my package. It takes 24-48 hours to have an update.

FedEx offers NO delivery window. Tracking only says "out for delivery, will be delivered by 8pm". So you can sit at home all day long, then FedEx delivers your package to the wrong address…
The replacement package the shipper claims was picked up by FedEx, something not showing on FedEx site. It shows "label created".

This is not the first time this happened. Not a long time ago Fedex claimed they could not deliver because "no one was available", while I was at home all day long, fedex claimed "delivered package", then dropped it off 1 hour later…

I put a large hand written note addressed to FedEx to buzz my apartment, so they do not use the wrong buzzer. Of course dies not work whe they go to the wrong building…

Horrible company, horrible customer service and incompetent delivery people. I would like an explanation How can they deliver the package to the wrong address? Can they read? Site jabber should have ZERO stars for companies Like fedex. Absolutely dreadful.

Companies such as FedEx should financially compensate customers whose package is lost for all the time and aggravation customers had to spend dealing with their incompetent customer service. In my case hours! $100 per lost package. Perhaps then they would lose fewer packages. Why should the customer be penalized and not the company that caused the problem?

Ps. Fedex just called me to see IF THE PACKAGE WAS STILL MISSING? Should they net be the ones to know about this? They are asking me? Unreal!

Tip for consumers:
Do not use FedEx. It is a horrible company, where the customer does not matter. Horrible online customer service where they refuse to give you a supervisor. Avoid at any cost. Had way too many problems with FedEx.

I purchased a set of 5 Infinity TSS-750 Home 5.0 Theater Surround Sound speakers at Auction on eBay on the 9th of December 2021, and paid the shipping to be delivered on the 12th of December 2021 I Live in Shasta County Just 3.5 hours North of San Francisco or 222 miles.
Package information sent to FedEx at 12:43pm December 11th 2021, The order was picked up on the 11th of December 2021 in South San Francisco@ 7:14pm, Arrived at FedEx location@7:56pm, Left FedEx origin facility@11:53pm.
All of December 12th ******* FedEx was saying Out for Delivery between 8:30 am -11:45am. Then the site said by 8pm, And after 8pm then, No delivery date Available,
Delivery Date was *Yesterday, the 12th of December 2021*. The package traveled a whole 1.5 hours traveling distance 95.7 miles from San Francisco to Sacramento in reported 19.5 hours that it was missing from Out for Delivery.
It's Currently Saying "Again" Out for Delivery even though it is still in Sacramento. 2 hours South of my Address, 18 lbs package to travel 3.5 hours in 3 days *Great Job Idiots ~!~* They used to be Great recently there getting Undependable!
Did Trump buy FedEx and screw the CEO like he did with USPS?
Sure seems that way. :( ...
