      Fed Ex lost my package on 2/1/23 and no one has answers. They let their drivers steal and then leave you as a business out of luck and out of money. How does a $1000 printer get lost???? It was scanned on the truck then never delivered so it is theft. At this point this is the 2nd time it has happened and They DONT CARE all of the money I spend shipping I should be entitled to what your driver stole. Then they tell you wait 7 days to never look for a BIG PRINTER nor do anything to the driver which wasted my time before they say go online to file a claim just to get online and CAN NOT file a claim because the website wont let me!

      Yet again, another delivery gone wrong by FedEx. They have yet to do something right yet. It isn't enough that I've called, emailed, & filed a complaint on BBB everytime something goes wrong and what's the solution? Someone from FedEx calling me back, apologizing & telling me it will be corrected by next delivery. NOW, I laugh because it's just an invalid excuse and a joke at this point. Literally, THE WORST courier service in the world! Nothing has ever been resolved. I got 2/3 deliveries shipped to me, only the shipper put in a request to FedEx to update the address and I know FedEx recieved those requests because I got notifications and e-mails regarding those updates but did FedEx follow through? NOPE! Just ignored it & continued delivering to the wrong address. Even if they did get the delivery address correct, they STILL chose to ignore the delivery notes on my account & deliver packages to the WRONG door. Unbelievable. Please implement a training program & get rid of the crappy drivers that don't follow instructions. It's frustrating & annoying. Especially when they deliver packages that weigh 75 ********** can't physically move it!! That's why I leave specific delivery instructions to make my life easier & save my back. Next time, I'll just send you my medical bills.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I keep complaining about the same issues over and over and I constantly get contacted by a FedEx rep assuring me that things will change and NOTHING has changed. Not even a little bit. Tired of the excuses quite frankly. Actions speak louder than words at this point. Apologies and words no longer have any meaning coming from FedEx. Just further waste of my time on top of the job undone by them.

      I had a package delivered but the driver damaged the package upon delivering it which I captured on my CCTV.I contacted the shipper and requested to return the package due to the damages, the shipper informed me that they would send me a return label in a few days.Before the shipper explained how they sent the shipping label I had the fedex driver which damaged my package stopped to pick up the package.I still did not receive the pick up label so the driver placed a call tag on the package and told me since her truck was full she could not take the package with her at this time.She said she would come back later or another driver would collect the package that she placed a call tag on.I called Fedex to make sure it would be picked up and I was given a local manager # and she told me she would come later that day to pick up that damaged package.Later that day the manager by the name of *************************, cell # ************ did stop by later to get the package.She explained the package was too heavy to carry and she could not get to her dolly due that it was buried behind packages and would need to stop over later so instead of waiting I volunteered to assist her and I helped her carry the package to her truck.I called that shipper and requested a refund now that the package was in the custody of Fedex but the shipper explained that their policy would not allow them to give me a refund until it was received back at their warehouse and I should have a refund within a few weeks to a month afterwards.Unfortunately I was in a motorcycle accident in which I broke my right femur on July 29 2022, afterwards everything else in my life was put on hold.Sometime in September I began to get back to my regular self and at this time I found out I didn't ever get my refund from the shipper from when ************************* recovered the damaged package on June 3 2022.Until this day I have attempted to get my refund from Fedex since they lost my package!

       I believe that the Manager/ driver from FedEx that collected my box would have the best DOT daily driver log to confirm that she picked up my box and then past that point it could point out what happened to my box since she scanned it prior to collecting it. The drivers information follows, *************************;contact personal or FedEx# ************, it was picked up on aprrox June 6 2022. Please allow that DOT daily driver record have a trace placed on it to review my claim in detail!

      Had a package shipped on 12/29/2022 to me. As of 2/9/2023 it's still driving around the US. It's reported a location (and the location has changed) pretty much every work day with a few exceptions. It's been to **** 5 times last I counted. (it's supposed to be delivered in ********). It just keeps moving around from place to place. Leaving in the morning and then either going back to the same place later in the day, or going to a different distribution hub. I tried contacting FedEx customer service and they told me that dealing with lost/limbo packages isn't their problem. They'd do nothing for me, since I wasn't the shipper. I contacted the shipper and the item is being replaced, but I find it asinine that my package, which hasn't been lost, is just going on a month+ tour of the Midwest. How can you run a company this way with such little regard for your customers? I fully expect to keep getting FedEx tracking texts on this package for months to come. I can understand a lost package, but this package is not lost based on the continual tracking update. I've attached the screenshot of the most up to date tracking info if you want a laugh, which has the tracking number on it.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********.  While I don't think there is anything else I "need" from FedEx, the fact that they have been able to recall the package after it spent the better part of 3 months going back and forth between facilities is mind boggling.  I can't imagine a scenario where this could have happened in any legit way.

    FedEx is supposed to deliver a package - tracking number **** **** ****. This package is already late, as I should have received it by February 7. I received a delivery date of February 9, 2023, and then FedEx delayed the delivery date without explanation. Every package FedEx has delivered to me for a year has been delayed, and FedEx refuses to correct the situation. I want my package delivered on time, and I want restitution for FedEx's consistent failure to deliver on time.

    I am rejecting this response because: while an apology is nice, this is an ongoing problem with FedEx. Deliveries are late more often than not, and when I call to request information, FedEx refuses to provide it. Every FedEx employee I speak with has an attitude indicating that customers should simply tolerate FedEx failing to deliver what they promise. That is unacceptable. Apologies do not matter as long FedEx refuses to fix any issues brought to their attention. FedEx should face stiffer sanctions. Maybe that would force them to improve their business model.

    Sincerely,

    I called FedEx at **************************************************** and asked for a business card printing service in the morning and confirmed 3 times that I can get it done by the day I also called 2 times after that to make sure that the service can be done by that day, and they finally gave me a quote around 4:21pm, I asked them about the quote(cause they look very expensive) and the manager told me that it would be cheaper to submit everything online instead and theyre not sure if they could deliver because they are closing at 7 So I have to go with the more expensive way, when I get there and check out the price is changed to 154, and the manager told me that is because the quote doesnt include the rush fee (but I thought the quote was provided at 4:20pm, why would they include everything in the quote?)I need the cards that day, thats why I paid everything, and on the second day, when I open them, it turns out that the cards are horrible, they still have the white bleed on 80% of the cards, Ill have to cut it myself again in order to use them I was really disappointed and went to the store asking for a refund, because the trade show is over and I no longer need any card, and the manager wouldnt give me any refund, his explanation is that they tried their best to have it done for me, and because I didnt submit everything online, that is the result Im getting After short discussion, he offered to reprint everything with no time limit, bit Im leaving ********* tomorrow and I dont need the cards anymore I would like a full refund because Ill not pay for this kind of bad service, even though the manager said they tried really hard, and he personally stayed late for this spherical order

    FedEx has the worst communication and delivery service ever! Yesterday (2/8/23) I received a call at 6pm that there was a final delivery attempt made to my office and that it would now be held at a location for pick up in a day. I never received a 1st or 2nd delivery attempt, no door ticket, or a call before the "final attempt". I have no way to get to a holding center and now I am supposed to be able to go get the package? They also lied that they attempted on Monday (2/6/23) at 11am and Tuesday (2/7/23) at 1pm - both days I was sitting at my desk in the front of my office and not once did FedEx come. This is extremely rude and lazy on their end.
