My bank account was charged $75.95 for a transaction regarding FEDEX ******* **. I did not authorize the charge, was not notified of any charges by FedEx and there were no invoices in my FedEx delivery manager. So, I contacted my bank and initiated a dispute. As a result, my bank card had to be closed and a new card issued. Now, today (several days later), I have a paid invoice in FedEx delivery manager. This has been a huge inconvenience to me because this bank card that was reissued was used for many recurring transactions that I've had to revise. Furthermore, FedEx provides no telephone or email support for this type of complaint. I was informed by their representative that my only option was to write a letter and mail it to *******. This is terrible customer service that should be corrected.Business Response

Dear *****************************:
This is in response to your inquiry addressed to the Better Business Bureau regarding tracking number 770957777639.
Any shipment that crosses an international border is subject to the assessment of Duty and Taxes as imposed by the destination country. In some instances, FedEx pays duties/taxes on international shipments on behalf of a customer to speed up the customs clearance process. The Duty/Tax invoice is usually a separate invoice sent to customers to recover any duties or taxes paid to the destination country by FedEx on behalf of the customer. However, as a gesture of goodwill, a one-time credit of $75.95 has been applied. Any future shipments will be eligible for the assessment of duty and taxes.We value the trust our customers place in us, and we look forward to serving you more satisfactorily in the future.

On 12/13/2022 I shipped a package to my son in ***********. I listed the value at $350.00 as I retained all teceipts for enclosed items. The tracking said it should arrive on 12/15/2022. It was alledged that it arrived on 12/16/2022 because of weather. I notified my son that the package had arrived and was placed inside a locker on premises. My son had told me when packages arrove at his apartment complex and items are placed into a locker, once closed a combination is sent to the resident. My son stated when he got off work he went to check on the package. There was no package and he never received a combination notice. He went back the next 3 days and he told me he never received the package. He also went to the other two apartment complexes next to his and there was no package there either? I filed a claim for the package on 8th of January with all item receipts attached with claim. On Jan. 11th I received a denial notice stating since I did not do a "signature required" with the package, Fed Ex denied and would not cover any value of the package. I was never told by the repersentative at the Fed Ex store located at **********************************. in my hometown. All I was asked was what was the "declared value" and was ground shipping okay, that was it. With items valued at $350.00 if told if you do not do "signature required" who would not pay to do that or authorize them to do this. Because "if" they said we assume zero responsibility if you don't do this they can deny the claim, which is what they did. When I received the email denying the claim they claim they dida through investigation, but neither the complex mananger, his staff or my son were contacted in the process. I spoke the manager and he stated there is a sign in the office directing the delivery people to try to deliver to the residents address first prior to dropping packages at the office. The bottom line is the driver said it was "in locker" but no combination was sent ever. I have email denial if needed?Business Response
Date: 01/27/2023

On 1/15/2023 My package was on fedex truck at approx 6am for delivery. I received a text message at 5:19PM stating my package had been delivered. At approx 5:30PM I went to my front porch to retrieve the package and nothing was there. I then went to my garage and nothing was there. I called Fedex and was told the delivery notification was false and my package had been rerouted back to fedex and would be delivered on 1/17/2023. I told the representative that was unacceptable. It was no excuse as to why my package was not delivered on time as there was not weather conditions in the area to delay my package. So my package stayed on the truck all day with NO attempt for delivery. This is unacceptable on all levels. Tracking number ************Business Response

I had an order with Scentsy that was placed on 1/8/2023. The label was created in *********, ** on 1/9/2023. It has gone down to ******* and back up to ************** since then. It has currently been sitting in *******, ** since 1/14/2023. When my husband called this morning (1/16/2023) regarding the status due to myself not having a voice they stated that the package is currently sitting in a trailer and wont even leave until possibly 1/17/2023 or 1/18/2023. They also stated that if the package is damaged or melted (the package has wax melts inside) it will not be their fault it will be the shippers fault.

FedEx has declined to fix a bug with FedEx Delivery Manager, which has caused numerous problems for me. When I add my new address (117 ******) to FedEx Delivery Manager, I get a message saying "Your registration is complete." But when I go back to my list of delivery addresses, it's not there. I first notified FedEx about this problem on 12/16/22 when I sent screenshots via ******* direct message to @FedExHelp. I was told to contact FedEx technical support instead. I did so and was assigned transaction/case number TR2034803 and was told someone would get back to me soon. On 12/27, I reported to @FedExHelp that no one ever got back to me and asked for assistance. They declined to assist, telling me to call technical support. I called technical support again and was assigned transaction number TR2055186 and case ********. Tech support told me someone would call me back within 24 -48 hours. No one ever did. Instead on 1/3, I got an email from isellcases-****************************************** that said, "Case Number ******** has been resolved." Except nothing had been done, and my new address still couldn't be added to my profile. I contacted FedEx service recovery at ******************** and spoke to *****. I told her everything I wrote above and that I needed to be able to set vacation holds with FedEx, as is possible with Fedex Delivery Manager. As I am disabled and often ill, I am often unable to make/take phone calls during business hours, so on Thursday 1/12, my boyfriend spoke to ***** about the ongoing delivery issues. He requested that the delivery of FedEx Shipment ************ be delayed until 1/18. She indicated she would attend to that. On 1/13, I double-checked with @FedExHelp that the vacation hold had been set so I would not receive deliveries until 1/18. @FedExHelp assigned case number C-******** for my vacation hold request. Yet ************ was delivered on 1/14. I also asked for a disability accommodation, but it was declined. I am running out of characters.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because FedEx has not fixed the bug in FedEx Delivery Manager. I still have been unable to enroll in Delivery Manager - it's been 2 months since I first complained about this.I also requested a disability accommodation. I am disabled and cannot lift heavy and/or large packages. I requested that FedEx deliver such packages inside my garage
(I gave FedEx my garage keypad code) because I have to hire contractors to move the packages, and leaving the packages outside for days leaves them susceptible to theft. FedEx refuses to put my packages in my garage, while *** has agreed to do so. I need to be transferred to the FedEx team that handles disability accommodations for customers.Sincerely,

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.Business Response

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.
