      The first time I decided to use **** as my platform to sell and I quickly sold a vintage cameo ring with filagree that flips to reveal an onyx. It was from 1930/40's and worth anywhere from ********* bucks and maybe more. Well FedEx lost my package. It was picked up on June 24th at 618 pm and arrived in *******, ********* at the hub on 6/25 at 722am. I filed a claim for 1210$ case #c-154167005. They have only contacted me to advise me my claim is delayed. When I was able to get someone in the claims department, he was condescending and when I asked him politely not to do that, he said not to disrespect him (by asking him not to speak to me on that manner), I the requested him to escalate my call to which he declined then I asked for his name and he hung up on me. Now I've had to refund the buyer on **** so I'm in the negative 80 after the fees **** charged and the shipping. My reputation is tarnished as a reliable seller and my integrity is in question. And I either want my ring back or the money it's worth.

      They contacted me today and I am not satisfied with their "solution" to having lost an inherited vintage ring with over 2000. Please advise. Thank you.

      Complaint: 22007073

      I am rejecting this response because: as a multimillion dollar business, the forced settlement of $300 for an heirloom with a value 6x more than that is offensive. Leaning on the "declared value" policy when 1- it was my first shipment with fedex,  2- I wasn't properly informed Abt it through ANY parties involved with the shipment and 3 - the loss of the package and subsequent slow speed of the "investigation" led to my insurance lapsing then the suspension of my license and registration which will cost me nearly $600 to rectify and that's not including the time I've spent having to contact FedEx (and was even hung up on by a member of FedEx claims) to correct the situation. And to top it all off, I had to still pay shipping fees out of the payout received. Horrible business ethics, claims process and customer service. To say Ive cried over the actions from FedEx is an understatement. I am NOT satisfied with fedex and I share my experience DAILY in hopes of tarnishing the reputation as is deserved.

      Sincerely,

      ******* *******

      Dear Valued Customer,

      On behalf of FedEx, please accept my apology for your experience.  Our record indicate when this shipment was tender to FedEx there was not a declared value.  Declared value is coverage for loss or damages.  Under the terms and conditions governing this shipment FedEx liability on any shipment is limited to $100 if declared value is not requested and paid for that the time of shipment regardless of value.  The shipper did not request or pay for coverage, therefore our liability is limited to $100. 

      A claim was paid on 06/03/2024 for $100 and second payment the amount of $300 was issued gesture of goodwill on 07/30/2024.  Both checks has cleared our bank.  This makes a total settlement of $400.  This settlement was an exception to our terms of carriage for declared value.  Although, we understand your desire for additional compensation the request is denied. FedEx will not consider any additional compensation.  We hope you understand our position in this matter.

      Sincerely,

      FedEx

      have complained 12 different times, you're customer support people in ***** hang up on you, and lie to you and do not have supervisors contact customers, my orders even state on the delivery notes to not illegally enter my mailbox and to deliver all my packages to my house porch, it's the same thing over and over, it's getting to the point I am being targeted by your delivery drivers, my mailbox is 1/2 to 1/4 of a mile from my home and I have to track down my packages 85 percent of the time, sometimes I don't even get them,I have complained to the post master and to fed ex numerous times all you have to do is look up address ****************************** and nothing gets done,the only thing I have left to do is to file a legal complaint with the attorney generals office of WV , I need a supervisor contact me asap, I'm tired of being ignored, wither your supervisors don't do anything about it or your driver's just so whatever they feel like doing, how can you company be paid to deliver a package to someones home and the. Leave it 1/2 a mile from their home and still get paid for the delivery ,seems to be you are breeching your contracts and shouldn't get paid,if I don't here from someone with 24 hours, i am going to the Capitol in ********** wv and file a complaint with the attorney general of the state of WV, and possibly contact the United states post office in ************* ,the local post master had done told me it was illegal for drivers to use mailboxes because they dont pay taxes on the packages, she had also made a complaint with the local office on my behalf but ahe did warn me she had done this before and the customers quit receiving their deliveries so your driver's targeting me us illegal also, I need someone to contact me asap.I have filed multiple complaints about this issue before to no avail....

      This Fedex Station has a history of not delivering large or heavy packages. This is the third time in as many years that I've had a large package go to this station and then dissappear for 2 or 3 weeks before I'm able to raise enough of a fuss to force delivery. This time I literally caught the driver at the end of my driver and he told me he "didn't want to unload my package because it was too much work"

      Called to make a claim and they put a search out for the package. Closed the case saying that it was delivered correctly and I was out of town when they closed it. Was told to file a claim online if this was incorrect and to put in for compensation. I did this and the claim was denied really quickly saying that the package was delivered more than 9 months prior which is incorrect and the email that said this even stated that the received date was 6/10/2024 so that makes no sense. I disputed this denied claim and attached the proper information again. I received an email confirmation for the disputed claim and the received date was changed to 07/18/2022 but if you look at the tracking number you can see that it was delivered incorrectly on 06/10/2024 so the website is all messed up. I called multiple times and the claim representative assigned to my case hasn't tried contacting me at all and its been almost 2 weeks with no communication. I have attached a picture of my house which is concrete and I was told that the house it was incorrectly delivered to had wood stairs and a gate. I have attached picture of my house, *******'s waiver so i could file a claim, and the invoice to purchase the item. I want to be contacted ASAP to get this case closed. I will be deploying in 4 weeks and unable to give additional information. Case number currently is C-154559497

      On June/11/2024 I sent a package with Fedex. I purchased the shipping label (Fedex SmartPost) with insurance through a 3rd party whose name is Easypost. The package never reached the recipient and that is why I made a claim with Easypost. Easypost requests additional information from me to clarify some doubts about the shipping label and they are the following:- The confirmation that the Fedex tracking ID ************ has to be linked to the **** tracking number ********************. Although Fedex has confirmed to me via phone that the 2 tracking numbers are related to each other, they did not want to confirm the information via email. According to the person I spoke with, Fedex does not send email.- The other issue is that the shipment is marked as delivered. I let FedEx know that the shipment was marked as delivered but the receiver never actually got the package and asked them if they can provide you with proof that it was mis-delivered, but they refused to give me any proof of that.In order for Easypost to honor package insurance Fedex has to provide these two things:1. Confirmation that the Fedex tracking ID ************ is linked to the **** tracking number ********************.2. Proof that the package was delivered to the correct address, otherwise change the status of the package as lost.I am attaching the following documents:- Fedex shipping label - Fedex transaction record - Communication with the recipient (email)

      I am rejecting this response because: 

      Thanks for your answer. Easypost is good with the confirmation of the tracking numbers.

      On the other hand, I am informing Fedex that the package was not delivered to the receiver. I am again attaching the communication with the receiver (TURN14) where they confirms that they have not received the package. The Receiver is one of the largest auto parts wholesales companies and has a very good reputation.
