I ordered a high priced jewelry item ordered from ***'s Club that required me signing for delivery. The box was out for delivery on the scheduled day and then was delayed and rescheduled for the following day. Once delivered, while opening the box, I saw the box was tampered with and had a second type of tape resealing it. After opening it there was a *** bubblewrap in the box, but nothing else. After getting a refund and filing a police report, I reordered the item and this time we opened the package in front of the driver previous to signing for it. Again, the box was tampered with the item was missing from the box. I would recommend avoiding FEDEX at this location if at all possible. Especially, for high priced items. I suspect there is someone that packs the trucks that stole the items or the driver. Or quite possibly a culture problem if there are multiple people in on this theft. Either way it should be easy to figure out and I have heard nothing back from FEDEX regarding this.Customer Answer

Dear ****************************** FedEx Executive ******************** and Executive Chairman. I am writing to you and or your designee in regards to my package that supposed to be delivered on Wednesday April 26, 2023 under tracking # ************. Upon receiving a text this morning (4/26/2023) that my package was out for delivery between 10:40 am and 2:40pm I cancelled my Doctor's ************ Around 5:31 PM I received a message on my email indicating (Delay Adult recipient unavailable age and required identification vary by country) which is a lie. Your driver who work on the delivery truck today failed to deliver my package. Therefore, I called the ************ and spoke to a representative and explain my issue about your driver. She noted the complaint and I received complaint #**********. In addition, to this I had taken photos from my cell phone to show the times. At 13:49PM the package states it was still out for delivery and I continued to review the status until it stated I wasn't home. I am very upset to the fact that the delivery driver never came to my apartment and ring my bell. There are cameras all over my apartment buildings. So, if the driver claims he/she came here, where is the door tag? I want my package that I paid for there should be no delay the driver was just being lazy and failed to deliver my package. I would like an explanation from the deliver driver as to why he claims it was a delay. This is disappointed because I cancelled my Doctor *********** and this is totally unfair to me.Customer Answer

Update: Upon making the complaint on 4/26/2023 I asked FEDEX representative if the FEDEX delivery driver can deliver my package to me before 10PM which stated on the Travel history.
Today (4/27/2023 I received a notification that my package will be deliver between 10:40 - 2:40pm.
At 14:43pm I took a photo of the tracking and it was change to 4/27/2023 before 10:00pm. I believe my complaint from yesterday is retaliation. 4/26/2022 my package was unable to be delivery by 10:00pm but today 4/27/2023 the time change and it wasn't feasible for me 4/26/2023 upon request. I am very much displeased with FEDEX. I need an explanation from them. Thank you Customer *******************************

On April 8th 2023 I ordered a canopy through Amazon from a third party seller. I checked the tracking through Amazon and saw that on April 10th it said " Carrier picked up the package". (I have a screenshot of this) From then on it never showed any movement. I contacted the seller and they said that they shipped it out on April 10th. I used FedEx's automated phone services and it said that a shipping label was created but it was never received. I called a couple different days to see if anything had change and it never did. I finally talked to a real person at FedEx ***** and when she looked it up at one point she said that it was on FedEx grounds then later changed it to they never received it. She then told me to contact the seller and have them file a claim against FedEx for the missing package. I'm just curious that if FedEx never received the package then why have the shipper file a claim for a lost item if it was never received by FedEx in the first place? She then asked if I would mind taking a one question survey and before I could answer she transferred me to the survey. I called back to file a complaint about the different stories I got from her and to try and get to the bottom of this and the fact that she pretty much hung up on me only to be told by the person I talked to that FedEx does not accept complaints unless they fall under 4 different categories and apparently mine didn't fall under any of them. At this point I either want my canopy delivered or have the seller compensated for the loss.Business Response

My package containing MEDICATION was due to be delivered on Tuesday, 4/25 by 12 pm via Overnight Delivery. There was the first alleged delivery attempt that morning however my husband was home all day waiting for the delivery and there was no sign of the driver and no door tag. I was told a myriad of things from multiple Customer Service Representatives over the course of the entire day - different addresses my package may be held at for pick up in lieu of "attempted" deliveries, different times those locations may be open for pickup, different case IDs for my complaint about this package debacle, and different restrictions on said package (some said I could have it held at a FedEx center while speaking to my husband but others told me I couldnt have it held at a FedEx center and would need to contact the shipper to have those restrictions lifted). After being told, in the afternoon, the team had confirmed they would come back to my home to deliver the package, I was told that the evening, I could come to the center to pick it up but only between 8 pm and 9 pm. The center is near ***********, not wildly convenient to get to that time of night on short notice. On the morning of 4/26/23, I call the shipper and even they cant get FedEx to agree to hold the package at the center! In desperation, I choose to have the package rerouted to be dropped off at a local FedEx center for pick up and said it would be available by the end of the day. After that call from the shipper, there were two more alleged attempts that morning with no door tags (again, my husband is home, waiting). Not one person, despite whatever shows in the tracking, attempted to deliver this package. I am encouraged to wait endlessly for a package that now, after I was told it would be the end of today, will probably be delivered to said alternative center on 4/27 or 4/28, as it takes ***** hours for the request to be processed something the shipper wasnt told when the request was made.

Hi, I'm filing this for myself and for my work. This has been ongoing and we frequently find FedEx packages at outside the building and just left there and no door bell was rang at all. Our door bell rings throughout the whole building so we will hear it to come meet the driver. Worse yet we are open when it's delivery time. I had a personal package delivered to my work and it was left at the back door. No door **** was rang for ** to meet the driver and to open the door. Driver could also have went to the front door of the building as we were open and given it directly to the staff person. Unfortunately this time it was stolen. That's to say that's the only one we noticed being stolen. Address of business is ********* Public Library, **********************************************************.

Hi, I had a FedEx package that was set to be delivered to my home. It is drugs on dry ice. It needed a signature but I wrote in the app instructions to leave it at the door due to it being drugs on dry ice. The driver did not leave it at the door. On the app it told me to go to ********************************************************* to pick it ** after 6:30 PM. I went there and this is a closed facility in an area with no people around at that hour and is dark. This could have been an unsafe situation I was put in. I then went to the FedEx Ground location that I was aware of on ************* in *******************. Everyone there but one guy ignored me or turned around when they saw me. Even when I knocked on the window and he was in front of me. It was rude and weird. The one guy who did address me said it was too late to pick up. I told him it is drugs on dry ice. He did not care and said it was too late. I then left and called the 800 number who then tells me the package is actually at *********** location in *******************. I drove there and those people were nice and I did get my package there. But before calling the 800 number this situation was a mess. Please fix your app to show where the actual pickup location is so it's not a wild ***********, fix the customer services issues at your ************* location and have the driver understand that maybe for once leave the package at the door as instructed since they normally don't care anyways. I have a stolen package I will be opening up another case for it.Tracking #: ************Business Response

On the date of 4/26/23 I received notification for a delivery scheduled for an address where I was out of town. I contacted the shipper immediately to let them know and cancel the delivery but I checked FedEx's website which said I could leave a note on my door to refused the package, or contact customer service for pickup after the item was delivered. Other customer experiences said that FedEx can let the driver know to not deliver the package.It was extremely difficult to contact customer service and no option was presented to address my issue. When I got a hold of customer service initially, the agent was unpleasant and ignored when I told them I already contacted the shipper. They told me I could refuse the delivery at the door and I believe they confirmed the leaving the note at the door. They repeated themselves, refused to escalate the call, and seemed disingenuous when I asked to file a complaint. They also had no reference for the call, only giving their name as Jesy.I didn't trust the agent so I called again to file a complaint, and the same unpleasant affect was shared by the other agent.The delivery driver ignored my note that I had a friend leave at my door, so I called to refuse the delivery per the FedEx website:"If no signature is required:If no signature is required, you can still refuse delivery once the package has been delivered Call customer service at 1.800.GoFedEx ************** and provide the customer service representative your tracking number A representative will either help schedule a pickup or direct you to a FedEx dropoff location to complete the return"This agent ignored the delivery driver's mistake, ignored the apparent mistake from the last agent, insisted the website was wrong, and offered nothing to fix the issue citing "security", then summarily hung up on me. For as much as the first agent excused their practices due to "process" FedEx ignores their own processes when inconvenient. Truly awful.Business Response

I created a shipping ticket on the Fedex website on my Fedex account with the step by step telephone advice from one of Fedex's representatives to have a shipment picked up at ********** Appliance warehouse.

I refused accepting the shipment and promptly filed a claim and included photos of the damage. My claim has been denied with the Fedex statement, "According to our records, the shipper must file all claims as per our contract agreement with them.
