      On: Saturday 1/14/2023 at approximately 10:53 am a FedEx delivery driver entered into their system that a package in their possession was delivered to my address and was "Given to customer" which is me. This is unequivocally fabricated as no human beings were present at the residential address associated with this fictitious delivery entry. I reached out to FedEx and filed a claim. I was told that I will receive an update on the whereabouts of my package within 24 hours. After 24 hours surpassed, the update I received vaguely suggested the delivery driver indeed gave me my package and I somehow misplaced it on my own accord, which is dishonorably deceptive, bewildering beyond belief, fundamentally untrue, and absolutely unacceptable. FedEx also instructed me to tell the shipper my package is "lost" when in-fact it is not, wherein they free themselves from binding obligations and don't have to accept responsibility for the morally corrupt actions of the individuals they employ. I can be seen on camera inside of a public establishment at a completely different location buying coffee during the time the FedEx employee insists they "handed me" my package. I also live alone and nobody else was at my home. If FedEx cared to communicate with their customers properly and in a timely manner to address critical situations concerning their company the response from FedEx would have definitely been different more so than indifferent.

      On January 11, 2023 a FedEx driver stole a package (total cost $48.84 for items plus shipping) off of my front porch. FedEx was scheduled to come out to pick up 2 packages that day, but when he arrived, the driver also took 1 *****delivered package with him as well. I've been communicating with FedEx Help customer service (@FedExHelp) on ******* and they tell me that local shipping hub will contact me if the package is found and that the only recourse of action I have is to contact the shipper to file a claim of loss with ***** Neither the shipper nor **** should be financially liable for a FedEx employee's theft. FedEx needs to refund me the cost of a replacement shipment that their employee stole off of my front porch.

      FedEx tracking history #************ (from the company I placed the order with) shows the following. I blocked out specifics. As you can see, the information is conflicting; it shows it's out for delivery, then the next day at the carrier facility. It also says I requested a rescheduled date, which I did not. I still haven't received my order, and the company is having to re-ship a new one. This is not the first time I've had an issue like this with FedEx.

      46/47 piece shipment was delivered on 8/5. I called the same day and they said the last shipment (************) was on another truck and would be delivered tomorrow. The package didn't come, so I called and was told it was still in transit and ******* was assigned to this case. She said she will work with the station on getting my delivery ASAP and would follow up if it still isn't delivered by 8/8. On the 8th, she called and said "There hasn't been an update or physical scan" and would follow up if it still isn't delivered by 8/11. On the 11th, I checked online and it said my package was delivered on the 5th. This made no sense because someone was assigned to this case after the fact that it was 'delivered' and there were no physical scans. In addition, the package still said it was in transit up until 8/10. I created a case (C-77970872) to report a missing package. They told me there was "proof of delivery on 8/5," but would send this info to the station and continue to work on this. I created a claim on the 17th but was denied with "Our records indicate the package was properly delivered." I told them I was home all day on the 5th and that there was no way the last package was delivered. If anything, I just wanted them to show me proof or for them to check the camera of the delivery truck to prove all packages were delivered. I reached out to the station MYSELF. I was appalled to hear they can manually enter the package in the system to say it was delivered which is why there were no physical scans. It seems like FedEx could do that with ANY package so they don't have to take accountability. They told me since I'm the recipient, I should contact my shipper so they can file a claim. I asked if FedEx will definitely issue a refund if my sender files a claim. I was afraid they would tell them they couldn't do anything since it was delivered based on their system. The representative assured me that they will issue a refund and that I have to contact my shipper. My shipper has submitted a claim only to receive an email saying "Our records indicate the package was properly delivered." I called FedEx recently and they said it was denied because "my shipper filed a claim with no account #." I was flabbergasted because in order to file a claim, you NEED an account number. Online I saw others also frustrated with this recurring problem of FedEx not taking accountability. FedEx has been pushing things back and forth and leading me in circles. They are unprofessional and unresponsive and I hope I can be issued a proper refund after dealing with this for MONTHS.

      Good morning,

      This claim has been escalated to the ******************** Office for review. That review has determined that the shipper has submitted a claim with some incorrect/incomplete information. They have been contacted and advised of what needs to be corrected in order to continue a review of this claim. You will need to remain in contact with the shipper for any further updates.

      I was on a delayed International Flight, and my bag was shipped to me via FedEx; the bag was apparently delivered and marked as delivered. It was never delivered, and a signature was supposed to be associated with the delivery. They cannot tell who signed for the item and where it is. Unfortunately, all I have received is poor customer service and lies all the time when I try and reach a resolution. If there was a driver assigned my item and did not deliver it, then FedEx should be able to hold someone liable for this misdelivery. They have provided nothing, and I still don't have my package. Someone needs to do something about all these stolen packages.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
