Is Fed Ex really this bad or have I had some bad luck. I purchased a cymbal on EBAY and tracked it all the way until it showed it was delivered, except it wasn't delivered. I contacted FedEx and talked to a FedEx employee who sounded about twelve and could not produce a coherent sentence who told me she would open a case but that my item was not lost. It isn't lost until two days after they say they delivered it. Okay. Well it ended up they delivered it to the wrong address. Okay it happens but...
I also ordered checks from my bank online in this same time frame. They shipped them via FedEx and they never arrived. I contacted the company who produces and sent the checks and she told me to go to my bank and put holds on those check numbers. She would FedEx me another set of checks and they would be there overnight. They didn't arrive so I waited a few more days and no checks. I called the company again who produces the check who called FedEx and they said they (FedEx) returned my checks and destroyed them from the first order. Why I do not know, and I was never notified that FedEx returned them since they were never delivered.........
The second order of checks is at FedEx place three hours from my house and the tracking says there is no information on when they will ship. I mean I could drive them myself faster and why is it taking three days to go three hours and I still do not have the checks!
 
FedEx are terrible, with a capital T. At least shipping to Australia. I was put through the wringer by these b******s; at one stage they threatened to return the shipment unless I supplied them an invoice within 3 working days. This was a Summit order that had the invoice taped to the box!! This was over Easter, where we have extended holidays compared to some countries. I ended up speaking to people in 4 countries: Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Australia. Arrogance out of control. I now use DHL.
 
Why do you think I have summit and Jegs set up for UPS only. Although UPS recently delivered one of my badly needed summit order to a neighbor that I had to track down
 
Around here Fed ex is more reliable followed by UPS. The post office delivers when ever it is convenience for them.
 
I like Fed-Ex......They dropped off a C.O.D. order of a new Cam and a complete six pack set-up without collecting a cent. Left it at my garage door!

That's why you only have Hi Hats shipped FedEx - the others either keep going along for the Ride, or Crash somewhere (though the little ones sometimes make a Splash)

I order checks through my bank and they are there within three days.

And “Swish” they are gone.......leaving you to “Sizzle” and it’s all because of “China” lol
 
I have used FedEx a few times. All packages got there. I had 4 that the ppl were to sign for delivery conformation. Not 1 got signed. 1 oackage was left at the end of a driveway in a rain storm. It’s a good thing I had it wrapped in a few layers of plastic inside the box. Box was thrashed when the buyer finally found it 3 hours later. Kim
