      Not only is FedEx is sending me (Ad Impressions, **********, **) an invoice (***********, dated 7/26/22) for something that was bought and shipped from ****************** (********, **) in June 2021, FedEx lost the package in question in August-September 2021. The FedEx invoice shows that the package was shipped on 6/30/22. This is not correct; the package was shipped in June 2021, a full year before what FedEx claims. I placed an order with ****************** for awards for my client, Thermo ****** Scientific. Those awards were to be sent to the homes and offices of various Thermo ****** Scientific employees. To the best of my knowledge, ****************** shipped those awards via third-party billing using Thermo ****** Scientifics FedEx account number. Ad Impressions was neither the shipper nor the FedEx billing party. At no time did ****************** have a FedEx account number for Ad Impressions. ********************** lost the package sometime between August and September 2021. As the shipper, ****************** filed a claim with FedEx for the missing package and shipped a replacement piece. Any issues with regards to the billing or claim for tracking number, ************, must be directed to the shipper, ******************. ****************** is just a company I bought something from. Ad Impressions is not in any way affiliated with them. I attached a full timeline of events along with other supporting documents. I am requesting that they credit my account for both attached invoices.

I am re-attaching them here. They should start by reading the full timeline. The rest of the documents show that what I state there is true.

      Transaction date 08/25/2022 Package arrived damaged, it was insured and Fed Ex will not reimburse us for the instrument we sent that was in mint condition before the shipment took place. It arrived broken and unusable. They have come up with many lies to keep from reimbursing us, all we want is to be able to replace instrument. First they denied our claim because they said it didn't have enough packaging (bubble rap) in the box,then they said after we sent pictures of all the bubble rap, they kept making more excuses so they could just keep denying our claim.

      Date of transaction: 9/10/22 FedEx sent me an email informing me a package would arrive on 9/12/22 They offered me a delivery window for a fee. I paid $5.55 to have the package delivered between 5 pm and 8 pm on 9/12/22. The package arrived at 12:20pm on 9/12/22. I called to get a refund and was refused by 5 different csr's refused to give me a refund or let me speak to a supervisor.

      FedEx appears to have lost my package and is not responding to my queries. Before taking a legal action, I would like to resolve this issue through BBB. The tracking number is ************ (FedEx Ground). The driver may not have scanned the package, therefore it is not showing in the system. I dropped off the package at *************************************************************************** and made sure the driver picked up the package (which he did around 5:30 pm on Sep 12). After the package was picked up, the tracking has not been updated and FedEx customer service is unable to located my package. This was a return of an item to the original company. They will only provide a refund when they receive the package, which FedEx is not able to find.

      On August 25, I went to Fedex location at *************************************************************. When I arrived I selected some packaging material to send a phone ******** Galaxy Fold 3) due for RMA, clerk advised that I should use a specialized phone packaging to avoid damages which I agreed to, at this point in time clerk was fully aware of the phone type and he was fully aware of which phone it was, he billed me for packaging material and gave the receipt of shipment (#************), I asked why it was not completely sealed and they advised they would pack it and seal it later on, then I left. Later that day while tracking the shipment, an exception was made "shipment exception Barcode label unreadable and replaced" which i found odd since a fedex employee himself was the one who package it. on August 30th when it was delivered, ******** the receiver of the shipment, stated that box was empty. Taking a closer look at the shipment information I also noticed that the shipment weight is 0.2lb or 90gr, the phone I sent is 271gr, clearly box was empty the moment it started transit to destination and clearly there is foul play during packaging process and phone was removed from box before sealing it for shipment. Cost of phone is $1500.

      I have an employee in ****** that lost his company credit card. So I went to my local Fedex location and mailed a new credit card to him. I paid to have it shipped the fastest way i could. I was told that they could not give me a ETA, because the card would have to go through customs. But it was a address that they service and should only take a few days. The card made it through customs in two days. on day three it go to the distribution center in ***********, and as of today has been sitting there since the morning of the 9th. I tried to call that location, but all calls get routed back to the same number, so there is no way to contact that office the card is at directly. I finally was able to get someone on the phone that spoke English well enough to help me, and i was told that they do not service that address directly, they use a 3rd party company, and they are trying to find someone to deliver it. So i paid an exorbitated amount to get a piece of plastic mailed to an address in ******, because FedEX lied to me and said they serviced that address, and now nearly a week later my credit card is just sitting in an office in ***********. I was told they could do a trace, and find out exactly the status? I asked, instead of emails and traces, how about you pick up the **** phone and call the location? they said they cant do that. So they hide behind technology and do not deal with the issues. I could have used a different company if fedex had been honest about how this was going to be handled. H*** i could have even put an employee in a truck and had then drive up there and deliver it faster than this. TRACKING NUMBER277693084139 SHIP DATE 9/7/22

    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.
