    FedEx sent an email on 1-26-25 stating that a package has been delivered, which was the delivery date. There was a pic of a box sitting on what looks like a porch but it is not at my property. I want on their site and stated what happened, somebody called me twice and I could barely understand them, they told me to contact my shipper. I said no since the shipper did nothing wrong, the pic explains that. They said they are doing an "investigation", I don't have time for that. I get the automated runaround when I call, I can't get a human. I can't get a human on the "live chat". I'm done trying to contact FedEx. I have since reordered my items and need a refund.

    A nice man from FedEx called me yesterday 2-4-25, and told me the package was delivered next door to me.  The houses here are far apart so I checked and it was indeed there.   Although my initial response was bad and took days, it's finally resolved.   I will be glad to drop/delete this now.

    ****** tried to price ***** my 90 year old mother. I sent a single photo to the counter to print. I received an email confirming and stating if it was going to take longer than an hour theyd call. She went into the store 6 hours later. ****** was distracted laughing with girls and told my mother they hadnt had time to go thru the emails. If she wanted it, it would cost an extra $20 for an express processing fee. I called the store and spoke to ******. He was so rude and proceeded to tell me he made $17 an hour and didnt make the rules. I asked for a supervisor and he hung up on me. Ive called twice since with no one caring to follow up. Im disgusted. I live in ** and my local FedEx is fabulous but this location obviously is lacking the proper management!If hes that way with other customers maybe this isnt the right job hes lucky to have.

    Over the past 2 weeks, we have not been able to receive any of our shipments from FedEx out of **********, **. Packages keep saying they are "Out For Delivery" every day, and every day they fail to be delivered. I even watched our driver stop at the business across the street, deliver a package, and drive off completely disregarding us. The driver has apparently lied, saying that a delivery was attempted, and a future delivery was requested. It is to the point that I am unable to re-open my business due to not receiving some of the things I need. I have contacted customer service, and failed to hear anything back afterwards (c-178956426, c-179022533). At this point, we have 21 (TWENTY ONE!) tracking numbers that are in limbo. If not resolved on Monday, I see no other solution than to process charge-backs and let the shipper, Webstaurant, deal with FedEx.

    I order something off of ******* and they sent the package to FedEx to be delivered. FedEx had said that the package would be delivered by yesterday, February 1st, but it never showed up. The FedEx delivery truck was infront of our trailer yesterday, parked, and yet the package was never delivered. The FedEx tracking system had said that the package was currently in the delivery truck but when I called customer support today, February 2nd, they told me that my package was still in their trailer at the facility and couldn't be unload until tomorrow, February 3rd, since they don't do that on a Sunday. It's extremely irritating since I was expecting it by yesterday since it was for my daughters birthday when both the ******* site and FedEx said it would be delivered yesterday. If I would've known it wouldn't be delivered that day, I would've canceled my order. I'm extremely upset by the fact that they can't even get the shipping stuff right and extremely irritated that I now won't be able to use it. I've attached both the email from ******* that stated that FedEx would have my package delivered yesterday and I've also included a screenshot of the FedEx tracking website where it shows that it was out for delivery and is currently still out for delivery. I've tried getting onto FedEx websites to find where to file a complaint but I can't find one that describes and can help with my current situation. Most of the complaints that can be made are for other business complaints that go through FedEx or payment complaints.

    The appropriate management has been notified of your concerns regarding the handling of the shipment traveling on package tracking number 432753269832.

    The commitment was February 1, 2025, and you received a delivery notification confirming as well, however it appears that due to an operational delay at the

    Ground facility, the package was not placed out for delivery.  We regret the extended delivery and understand this was a special gift.  Our records indicate a 

    proof of delivery on February 3, 2025.  We attempted to call you on February 4, 5, & 7, 2025, however voicemail was full.  We will request a credit of the 

    shipping charges so we suggest you alert the shipper.

    Please accept our sincere regrets for any inconvenience you have encountered. We value the trust our customers place in us, and we look forward to serving you more satisfactorily in the future.

    FedEx scheduled the delivery of this package on 1/24. On 1/25 the status got updated to a delivery exception. Since then I've contacted FedEx customer support to inquire the whereabouts of my shipment. Customer support has not been helpful. I was given wrong information (e.g. package is out for delivery on 1/27), then I was told **** is responsible for the delivery, then the delivery responsibility went back to FedEx, then I was told they have the shipment and deliver it the next business day - which was incorrect too. Since 1/29 there's no further update from FedEx (website) nor from FedEx customer support. I'm told I cannot file an investigation. According to FedEx policies it seems only the shipper can do that. Since this is an international shipment it is very difficult for me to get in touch with the shipper. I paid after all for the shipment. I should be able to file an investigation (or FedEx customer support should be able to). At this point it's clear, that FedEx is not going to help, so I'm stuck. I want FedEx to do do what I paid for which is delivering my shipment (which is of high value). Any help you can extend to get things moving on FedEx side is much appreciated. Thanks!

    I have placed multiple orders where FedEx is the courier, however they refuse to deliver and hold my packages hostage in their possession. Three examples of packages that FedEx has in their possession that are well overdue to be delivered have the following tracking numbers: ************, and ************, and ************. The first tracking number listed is an order from over a month ago. FedEx initially claimed weather delays and we did in fact have some snow. So therefore I was very patient. Then it cleared up. There is no more snow or ice on the roads and its perfectly fine outside in regards to weather. It was actually 57 today. So I started calling to complain after the weather cleared. Ive placed multiple complaints and Im always told someone will call me within 24 hours and they never do. Some of my claim/case/complaint numbers are: C-178524224 and C-178596369 and ************** items have been marked out for delivery for multiple days in a row and they never show up. They have even had my packages on the truck for delivery for them to then go back to their ********** WV hub and then travel to a further FedEx hub in ****. FedEx also will not deliver their oldest packages first. So mine just continue to sit there. Im not sure why FedEx refuses to deliver my packages but if you could help find out, then that would be great.

    We are aware of the issues our customers have been experiencing with delays in deliveries, and sincerely regret the inconvenience this has caused for you and many others.

    We can assure you we have been diligently working to resolve these issues and get back to a normal rate of deliveries for our customers in your service area. Our entire U.S. network has been experiencing delays due to winter weather, which directly impacted our deliveries, resulting in a backlog in our deliveries.

    FedEx knows how important it is to have your packages delivered on time, so we remain committed to working on ways to leverage our network flexibility. We also make sure that employee safety is a priority as well.

    According to our records, this is the current status of all of your shipments:

    432905994251   This package was delivered February 2, 2025, at 11:27 a.m.
    435305049511/USPS tracklog number 9261290126160122097754   This package was shipped on our FedEx Ground **************** These packages are tendered to **** for delivery. **** is now in possession of your package and the tracking number has been provided for tracking purposes. ************************* shows this package is expected to be delivered by Wednesday, February 5, 2025, by 9:00 p.m. by your mail carrier.  
    435305049511   Per shipper's request on 1/30/2025, this package was stopped and is being returned
