      On January 11,2023 I ordered an iPhone 14 plus and an apple watch 7 series. The items were shipped via FedEx 2day shipping. My item was last scanned on the 12th leaving ***********, ** at 2:42 am and has still not arrived anywhere or been scanned in anywhere! The 2 items combined have a total value of around $1,500. It is now almost a week past when they were suppose to be here and yet not a single person I've spoken with at FedEx can tell me why I have not received it or tell me when I will. This is completely unacceptable!!!

      Hello,FedEx negligently delivered a package and it was stolen. FedEx delivered a package to me on December 4 and within a short period of time before I could retrieve the package it was stolen and missing from my building. I had the building superintendent. Help me look around to find the package in the building and it was nowhere to be found. A FedEx left my package where it was visible from the street, and anyone from the general public had access to it. This is not the method in which I wanted my package delivered, I wanted it to be placed inside the condominium building however, it was placed beside the enter phone of my condominium building, and not physically inside the building in the mail room or left at my door or sent you a location for pick up.I took the following steps to try to get a refund for my package. I phoned and filed a case over the phone, I filed a complaint on their website, I emailed a customer service representative in charge of these types of complaints, and I made several more calls to the call center, FedEx said it was my responsibility to try to attain a refund from the shipper and they closed my case. They said it was my responsibility to attain a refund from the shipper, when it was their negligent delivery that caused my package to be stolen.I was not able to get a hold of the shipper as they were call centre was closed and I spent many days trying to resolve this issue. I am looking for a refund from FedEx.The following his information about my package;Tracking number: ************ Case number: c-******** FedEx states on their website that they deliver packages with reliability. I am very disappointed with the lack of support from FedEx for trying to help me resolve this matter they also close my case automatically even though I stated the matter was not resolved.Thank you very much for your support in this matter and helping me to attain a refund.

      Fed Ex is the delivery company responsible for safe delivery of item. I, the consumer should be reimbursed by FedEx for the item, as photo proof and description was given on improper delivery in a public place.

      Fed ex delivered my package to the wrong address. They admitted the driver delivered it to **********************. They said there was No delivery signature required. (Which was not a choice I could make because this was an order from AliExpress.) I paid over $350 for this order and Fedex told me the shipper told them the value of my package was no more than $100. I have the receipts of what I paid for the order. FedEx had no interest in verifying the information from me. So, they sent me a check for $100. I am still out of over $250. I have **** to managers and supervisors who do not care to correctly take care of this case. I do not believe this is fair.

      FedEx values your business.  Our records show that we received and processed your claim request for FedEx's maximum limit of liability. The claim was paid in accordance with our contract of carriage. Under our contact of carriage declared value represents FedEx's maximum liability in connection with this shipment. The shipper declared a value for customs and carriage in the amount of $100.00.  The claim was paid for that amount.  FedEx will not consider any additional compensation.  We must respectfully refer you to your shipper for additional information.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I spoke to the shipper BEFORE filing a complaint to FedEx. The shipper offered me a refund, and scammed me by requiring me to post a five star review, then sent me fake refund receipts to my email, which I never received. I reported this to my bank, who then redirected me to FedEx.

      I had multiple packages being delivered on 8/16/22. The driver delivered the packages and hit my car while turning out. I saw him, and heard the collision from the inside of my house. I ran out and he sped away. I reported it to FedEx and they told me that someone will be in contact. The delivery company acknowledged that they have damage on their car but its not at the same level as mine. I asked how would they know if nobody ever measured where my damage is. They told me the case was passed onto corporate. I have called corporate multiple times and nobody is able to help me and keep telling me to wait until someone reaches out to me. This happened in August.

      I had a package shipped via FedEx shipping company to my home in ******* ******* on January 6. I received updates that the package was in route to my home. However, the package never arrived and FedEx says they delivered it to the client that would be me. this is not true. I have a gate at my property. They cannot get past the gate without calling me to open the gate. I have my phone number in my name printed on the gate that says please call me on arrival, I will come open the gate and receive the package. I also have a security system that shows no alerts of any package arriving during the entire day for January 6. I contacted FedEx explain this to them at 3:30 on the day of the package was supposed to have arrived. They told me to file a claim and wait three days after waiting three days I filed another claim because nothing has been done by FedEx. They didnt even search for the package or contact anyone the invoice for the products that were shipped to me or $3301.00 the company that shipped me the products is asking for payment on a box I never received. This is grand larceny Fed Ex either lost the box or stole the box. Either way they did not deliver the box. I would like the original company that shipped me the products to be compensated for the box that Fed Ex lost or stole. I had filed a police report in ******* *******. I have contacted Fed Ex over a dozen times regarding this and nothing has been done. They sent me back a email that said the claim was denied. How can you cant deny a claim when you lost or stolen package this is criminal. Please help me resolve this with this company. I need to $3300 credit back to the company ***** for wellness that shipped me the products because federal express lost the box. Thanks very much

      We are distributor of ** manufactured product in *****. We have been waiting for our shipment ************ (picked up on Jan 5) There is no update of status for over 7 days now. Apparently, 2 out of 10 packages have are in ***** but the remaining 8 are last logged in *******. Both ** team and ***** teams have failed to commit to any delivery timelines. This hurts our business tremendously. FedEx should guarantee a timeline for delivery given they charge a premium fee. We want the material to be delivered ASAP. We also demand compensation for the loss this delay is causing to our business.Similar situation has happened with n the past as well. BBB should investigate the questionable operation of FedEx.

This Complaint is on Reprisal - once I filled a written complaint, they refused to deliver ********** it back'...*you see where they say we'll hold the package ?? till 1/20!

      I was sent a package from Express Scripts. The package was sent to FedEx for one-day delivery. I was told the package had been lost but later was told by a representative of FedEx they had the package but nothing was in it. The travel history which I have a copy of is misleading and I believe it to be a coverup to avoid liability by FedEx.

    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.
