FedEx Reviews Summary

The reviews indicate a predominantly negative perception of the company's reputation, particularly regarding its delivery services. Customers frequently express frustration over significant delays, misdelivery of packages, and inadequate customer support, often describing the service as unreliable and unresponsive. Positive aspects are notably absent, with many reviewers highlighting a lack of accountability and poor communication from the company. This consistent pattern of dissatisfaction suggests a need for FedEx to address operational inefficiencies and enhance customer service practices to restore trust and improve overall customer experience.

Fed ex should be Xed from existence. Worst customer service anywhere. I actually was called a dumbass by one of the employees at the non service center in Round Rock after I had been through the ordeal I experienced in getting a simple $15 Dollar part. I was lied to by a phone operator that told me they would deliver the part the nest day and was forced to drive 70 miles to get the part. The security gate that they have installed on that property to get your part literally backed up and bruised my chest as I tried to enter the prison like compound where my part was being held in the truck that literally past my house the same day. I also fail to mention that earlier the day I was at the bed side of my dying mother that I left to go and be sure that I was at my house in time to get the part. Yes Dying mother. A big fat slob of an employee then had the gall to call me a Dumbass when I complained about the security door that hurt my chest. Fed Ex you are the very worst service organization I have EVER experienced. Period

I just had a very bad experience with FedEx express delivery service. They hadn't only late delivery of my parcel, but also broken some of my goods, although the sticker of fragile was there.

I usually order Fedex over UPS or USPS if possible. I've never had any issues with damaged packages or other complications.

SCAM! Stay away from these thieves.

They charged me 150$ for an 29.99$ item. It's simply outrageous!

This service is a rip off
September 23, 2014

This service is a rip off. They claim they can ship cheaper than you can do yourself directly and this is simply a lie. USPS fully insured and tracked is less than half the price they quote. They only use Fedex to ship. They also offer fake discounts for promoting them on social media via the checkout facility, which offers a 5% discount but then they don't provide you with the coupon code to redeem and claim the discount.

Can't beat the price (yes even by USPS or UPS--check it out and compare pricing/service times), can't beat the service. If you ship enough with any one carrier, you're gonna have some issue here or there, but trust me, it'll be a lot less with FedEx.

The guys at my local branch are very knowledgeable with the options available in presentation design. I had my office computer out for repair and had to use them for the design of my presentation. I usually like to do my own layouts and I say I am pretty good. However, Steve was great and showed me a few tricks.

I had an incoming package, a repaired laptop that required a signature for delivery. I am one of those strange an unusual people that have a job! They refused to deliver it at a time when I was home saying they only deliver to my town around 10 AM-noon. They refused to wait five days so I could move my day off to be home to get my computer. FedEx did say I could come pick it up that day only at their distribution center, 86 miles away, about an hour before they closed. They claim they made three attempts and returned the computer to HP. HP resent it to my work address with my waiving all their responsibility for safe delivery and I feel I was lucky to get my laptop back.

I just had a great experience at kinkos/fed ex for printing out my entire business cards and signage for a new office. I have gone online in the past but I needed a real 24 hour delivery time and fedex kinkos delivered it all to me fast and with amazing quality. They will match online prices too if you ask them about it.

I used BongoUS to have items forwarded onto Australia. A friend of mine who lives in a different city of Australia and I ordered over US$300.00 worth of items which were forwarded to an address and were then supposed to forwarded onto Australia.
I received an email from the retailer informing me that the items had been shipped to the US address. That is the last thing I heard about the items, the identical thing happened to my friend. We persisted for 2 months to contact BongoUS via phone, email, even a hand written letter. We never had one reply from them. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY, they are a disgrace. My friend and I are furious that we were so stupid to use this company. I strongly advise you not to have anything to do with this Company. If they had made an error with one of our orders that would have been annoying but for both of us to share the same experience when we live a one hour flight away from each other in Australia, they are a sham, DO NOT USE. Would not even bother typing this but I don't want anyone else to lose their money and experience the frustration that we did. An absolute disgrace they still exist!
