Fedex Reallly Is Terrible


Recommended Posts

i always have problems with fedex no matter what or when i order.

i ordered a hookah from HJ and john was fantastic shipping it out that exact same day (as usual)

but fedex takes 3 years to deliver it... on top of that its 7:30pm and i still have no package which is suppose to be arriving today.

I'm also waiting for my order from HJ. He send it with USPS Friday 16th. They dispatched it from LA on the 21... :b I live in Denmark, so delivery takes a while.. smile.gif And I'm still crossing my fingers that it wont end up in customs. That's going to be expensive! In fact, it might double the price.. :b

with fedex being the worst.


UPS lost my original KM ice, the one i have now is a replacement, and after 2 weeks of bitching at them did they finally refund me for everything and upgraded my to 2 day air, but seriously i had to bitch like no other for 2 weeks while they did nothing at all, lazy assholes

hey i resent these comments im a manager at a terminal in florida, i take great pride in smashing and losing your packages. Kidding of course but yea shipping is always going to be a gamble there is so much that can go wrong some of which could be the shipping companies fault and some not at all just make sure you get the package insured.

It all depends on the driver in my opinion. In my neighborhood UPS is the worst and the Fed Ex service rocks. So I stick to vendors who ship Fed Ex. If I lived in a neighborhood where UPS was the best, I'd shop from UPS shipping vendors. All depends on the end customer service and that's all about the driver.

thx click
i really like fedex, they are timely and reliable, i use them for 400 shipments per month and have less than 1 package a month arrive late, good odds. the thing i don't like is how they arrive sometimes when i see pics. i agree w rani, depends on the driver, but also, it goes from one driver, to a hub, sorted thru a ton of belts, onto a semi, resorted at another hib, then placed on a truck for delivery. it's really an awesome system, i worked for ups for a whopping 4 days when in college, couldn't handle the sunrise shift. it's a pretty amazing system.

I guess I've never had too many problems with either FedEx or UPS. I order stuff from John all the time and it arrives like clock work about as quick as can be expected. On the other hand, I absolutely hate USPS and won't order from anywhere who will only use them.

Btw John, my gorgeous blue/gold vase arrived today and I couldn't be happier. Edited by vin13

The only problem I have with FedEx is when it's shipped signature confirmation. I leave a note saying here's my signature, put it behind the bushes, take the note. Because they always show up right after my lunch break. Always end up a day later driving out into the sticks to their warehouse to pick it up... not fun.

fedex is a piece of shit. <- that is an understatement.

i i've had a few hookahs shipped to my house. out of maybe 5 or 6 pipes i've had 2 broken bases.

the ultimate fedex story has to be when i was waiting on the balcony for the guy to arrive. he pulled up, i waved. i then got up to go inside to open the door. while i was getting up he backed up is truck in front of my neighbor's driveway. i was waiting at the door (it's on the side of the house about 35' from the driveway and around a corner) because i was wearing socks and it was wet outside. i wait about 45 seconds and can't see the driver approaching. i wait a good minute. go back out to the balcony and the driver is pulling away. wtf? THE ASSHOLE WAS IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE WHERE THE NUMBER IS CLEARLY MARKED SQUARELY ABOVE THE GARAGE "703" IN HIGHLY CONTRASTING LETTERS. HE WAS IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE, BACKED UP HIS TRUCK TO MY NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE (701) AND ATTEMPTED A SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION DELIVERY TO THEIR HOUSE (NO ONE WAS HOME) AND THEN LEFT.

the killer was that half of the stuff in the box wasn't even for me, it was for my buddy who just got back from a 3 month visit from mexico and was moving into his new apartment, it was a housewarming gift/something decent for me to smoke while i'm at his place.

what a sham.
