Special food needed for my pet was not received or delivered on time. This was supposed to be delivered on Saturday, it said delayed, so I called and I apologize I was angry, and I told them that I needed that food Saturday. So he said I've assigned it to be delivered on Monday. I said no that is not acceptable to me, so then he stated they are open and it will be delivered on Sunday. Imagine my dismay when I received and email saying it was back to tomorrow. Now I need to run to Rome **, 35 minutes out of my way to pick up the limited ingredient food. Why didn't fed ex contact me to say that we can drop this off at a local **********Business Response

This complaint is about FedEx delivery/driver!! I order my boys dog food specially made once a month & have it delivered, I ordered it last week ****, for it to come in at the same time they'd be getting low, it was on the FedEx truck to be delivered Fri ****, the driver didn't even attempt to deliver it, so it was on the truck again Sat **** to be delivered, the driver said it was the wrong address on the package & didn't deliver it, AGAIN!!! I was on the phone forever with FedEx, ****, they said it was the correct address & must be a new driver, so it'll be out for delivery again Mon ****.. I said it's FedEx's fault it wasn't delivered the 2 days it was supposed to be delivered, why can't it be delivered Sunday, they said only specific orders are delivered on Sundays, so my dogs have to be without food until Mon due to an incompetent driver??? I can't just go out & buy dog food because they're on a special diet!!! This is the second delivery s**** up...3 weeks ago the driver done the same thing with my other dogs heart medication, thank God I could run up to the vets & grab that, it just costed me an ********** but at least he had it, no thanks to FedEx!!! If a driver doesn't want to do the job, they need to find a different job because they are playing around with lives & putting my babies lives in danger not getting the supplies!! This is very unprofessional & unacceptable, it should have been put in a special delivery for Sun **** since the driver didn't attempt to deliver it Fri & then flat out LIED about the address being incorrect just so he wouldn't have to deliver it!!!Business Response

Let me start with my tracking number ************. According to fed ex my package was delivered on Wednesday Aug 16 at 9:47 am. As proof of delivery they uploaded a blurry picture of a package but the problem is that is it not my house. I contacted fed ex or fed ex computers. They said they would open up and investigation and the conclusion was that the package was already delivered and for me to contact the sender. It was fed ex mistake they should be able to resolve the issue themselves.Business Response

I can't believe FedEx just said they have concluded my case and said if I haven't found the package to contact shipper, if I knew the address where it was shipped I would have went and got it myself on the day it got delivered to the wrong address so FedEx didn't do like they said and retrieve my package because they are the only ones who know where they delivered itBusiness Response

I am writing to bring to your attention a recent incident involving the delivery of packages that were incorrectly delivered to an address different from the one provided. I am deeply disappointed by this mistake and would like an immediate assistance in resolving this matter. I have filed numerous claims and have not gotten a call back from anyone. The only correspondence I have received is an email asking me questions regarding the delivery address. I emailed the information and sent a photo of my son's residence and I still have not received a call back or response. The claim I filed had a 48-hour turnaround and now that's expired. I still haven't heard back from Fedex call or email unless I call them, and they give me the same excuse "they are working on it'.On August 15th I filed a claim for two packages delivered to the wrong address. Inquiry Tracking # ************ and Inquiry Tracking # ************ These packages were delivered to a different address entirely, which does not belong to me or anyone I know.My son's personal belongings are in those packages, it's crucial to rectify this situation promptly. I think we have been extremely patient with Fedex. The wait and lack of communication has taken a toll on me and my son.I would like an explanation as to how this error occurred and what measures are being implemented to prevent such incidents from happening in the future. I would appreciate a call regarding the progress of the investigation and steps that are being taken to retrieve my son's packages. Respectfully, ***********************Customer Answer

What steps are being taken to retrieve my son's packages? Clearly, Fedex dropped them off at the wrong address according to the picture you sent. Has anyone called the Durham location to speak with a manager? Has the driver been questioned to where he left the packages. Why is it so hard to go back to the location he left them and pick them up? This entire process has been frustrating!
As for filling out a claim, I want my son's personal items returned! Money can't replace his personal belongings. My son has over ****** followers on TikTok he should let all his followers know how horrendous this experience has been. There seems to be no accountability, and no one seems to care about my son's missing packages!
I would like a more thorough explanation on the investigation before I fill out any claims!

I purchased a replacement phone on Wednesday 8/16/2016 that was guaranteed shipping through FEDEX. I received a tracking number that stated I would receive the phone the following day 8/17/2023 between 9:20AM- 1:20PM, then it changed to delayed, before 5PM, then it changed again to before 8PM. Then at 5:55PM the driver marked as "attempted to delivery" which was absolutely false. Fast forward to day 8/18/2023, tracking information updates and shows out for delivery again delivery timeframe 9:20-1:20PM, gets delayed again, so I can the customer service line and they state it should show up no later than 3PM. That time comes and goes. I called back then they state I should now get it before 8PM. At 7:30M it's marked as "attempted to deliver again" but shows back at the FEDEX facility at 7:42. This is completely ridiculous! I have been purposely home bound for the past 2 days so that I don't miss this package and the delivery drivers keep lying! There is not even a signature required so that even further more shows there was no attempt, plus no note on the door they're supposed to leave. I have been home. Now it shows they'll make another attempt on Monday 8/21/2023 between 9:20-1:20. This is a cell phone, that has been is sitting in over 100 degree weather for the past 2 days and now will sit over the weekend because you delivery drivers have dropped the ball. I am requesting a refund of $139 i paid. Tracking Number: ************Business Response
