I have paid $55.05 for overnight service, and due to a fedex agent's mistake, my package was misplaced and delayed for 3 days! This caused alot of problems for me. I called customer service on 7/7 when I found out that the package had been mishandled. I was told to wait until after the weekend, since they can't do anything on Friday! I was told to file a claim for a money back guarantee. I filed it, but it was denied because it wasn't damaged! I called customer service again, after several attempts to reach a live person, they told me to fill out a different form for billing. I couldn't find that form. When I finally did, I received a message that it was denied because the package was shipped more than 15 days ago!! This is not acceptable. I am requesting a full refund of $55.05. This delay has cost me alot more than I had paid for shipping!!!TRACKING NUMBER780748612239 DELIVERED TOResidence SHIP DATE 7/6/23 STANDARD TRANSIT 7/7/23 before 12:00 pm ACTUAL DELIVERY7/10/23 at 11:20 amBusiness Response

I scheduled a pickup of a package through FedEx online, and when I scheduled the package I was asked to input the weight of 38 pounds (this was the same weight listed by FedEx when I first received the package initially). The price for sending this package back was about ~$60, however I was recently charged for $439.64. When I called FedEx to dispute the charge, they went over the breakdown of the cost which I did not receive prior to scheduling the package. When I was transferred to the supervisor, she claimed that the total cost is calculated after they receive the package based on the dimensions, not the weight. The proof of delivery noted 2.2 pounds, which already highlights a lack of transparency on their end as I don't know where this number came from and the dimensions of the package are not listed in the proof of delivery. This is incredibly misleading on the customer's end as none of this information was ever explicitly noted when going through the process of scheduling a pickup. I demand a refund for this charge as there was no explicit breakdown of this cost and no transparency on the company's end.Business Response

FedEX delivery does not follow instructions provided. I am physically impaired and have requested to packages to be delivered to my door. Repeatedly the drive does not comply. I previously filed a complaint C114942655 on 7/13/23 and was advised a manager would contact me. I never received a call. When I contacted FedEX to follow up, I was advised the manager spoke with the driver and going forward the driver will follow the instructions provided. On 7/21/23, once again the package was not delivered to my door. I again contacted FedEx to address my concern and no action was taken. The previous tracking numbers are ************ and ************. Collectively I have contacted FedEx via phone over 10 times requesting assistance and the issue has not been resolved.Business Response

This is a follow up on Complaint ID: ******** due to additional developments just occurring recently. Master Tracking ************ As noted in the original complaint the recipient had went to the location several times to try and pick up this package but has been advised every single time that the package was never there. The recipient also informed me that FedEx never did any delivery attempts on this package at best the driver showed ** in front of their house and then drove away without getting out of their vehicle. This package was returned today via tracking ************ however I believe the return shipping charges for this package should be waived due to the service failure on Fedex's part to even attempt to deliver the package and to not find the package when the recipient tried to pick **. Also as noted in the resolution for the package the shipping charges from me to the recipient was supposed to be refunded however I did not receive a complete refund for all the lost packages.The resolution I am seeking is:The return shipping charges on the package refunded in full The shipping charges on the lost packages refunded in fullBusiness Response

June 26, 2023 I ordered $166.68 from ***** for my daughter. Estimated delivery was June *****. On June 26th I got a FedEx sticker saying they will attempt to deliver package again the next day because they needed a signature, which is weird because they never needed a signature from ***** delivery before. I was home all day. So the next day my daughter waited around for the package, still nothing. On the very same day, June 27th.. I tracked the package and it said it was delivered to my address with a picture of the delivery. For some reason the FedEx delivery driver left the package outside of my apartment building next to bushes. I have no idea why he did that and didnt walk into the building and deliver it to my apartment. When I went outside to look for bushes where my package was pictured and couldnt find it. Someone definitely stole the package. So I called FedEx to complain. They made a claim and stated I would get a response in ************************************** case and still nothing, so I called a second time. When I called it said my case was closed and the lady opened it back up and said to wait a few more days. So I waited over a week this time. Still nothing. So I called a 3rd time, *** said case was closed and he would open it to expedite services. Then told me I needed to contact ***** to have them contact FedEx for payment. So I contacted *****, who then said it was out of their hands and the delivery service needed to solve the problem. Which I totally understand because its FedEx problem since the delivery driver left the package outside of the building next to a ****. I will not call FedEx again. I decided to take matters in my own hands and go to BBB. This is uncalled for and I would like a refund for my order. This is not professional. I am very angry and ****** off that I even have to take it this far. Any more information you need, please contact me.Customer Answer

I called customer service, and the representative told me a case was created on 7/31 for the investigation of my package but no one has reviewed it yet, even if I've claimed from the beginning that I'm leaving U.S in a week therefore I really need my package delivered ASAP, and since it's been delayed for over a week, I do not have time for waiting anymore. 3) This same customer service representative hang up the phone directly before I finished my words and did not ask if I have further problems.
