The overall reputation of UPS is marred by significant concerns regarding service reliability and customer support. Many customers report frequent delays in package delivery, errors in shipping, and inadequate responsiveness from customer service representatives. Complaints highlight issues with lost packages, unfulfilled delivery promises, and a lack of accountability, leading to frustration and dissatisfaction. While some customers acknowledge the company's long-standing presence in the industry, the prevailing sentiment is overwhelmingly negative, with calls for improved communication and service efficiency. This feedback suggests that UPS must urgently address operational shortcomings to restore customer trust and satisfaction.

Worse customer service! I Sent a package to China, I had to call three times to the pick up( because they massed up), then I select three days service and rhey gave me estimate cost base on that, when I checked the status of the package few days later I noticed that its going to be delivered in 10 days, I called them to find out whats going on, the lady( from tracking service couldnt answer me, I asked her name she refused, I asked her if I can talk to her supervisor, again she refused) and then she just disconnected me. I called back few times more every time talk to deferent people and no one tried to solve my issue, I will here use UPS again.
My computer was handle with care from NY to Oregon great service. I had a tracking all the way..."...
Ordered from them a few times, really happy with the shipping and the services they're offering. Great quality of customer support. All issues are resolved with the first email
They sent my item to someone else (more or less a block away). I had to retrieve it on my own. But they gave me a partial refund for my trouble.
If you like scavenger hunts (looking for items using clues), choose UPS. If not, pick a different courier.
What the heck is going on at UPS? They were my go to with my choice and my local drivers. I am done this year with UPS- overnight a package that took over a week because they do not listen. I requested a refund and that was supposed to be processed and it is not clear what if anything they did or did not do pursuant to bad record keeping. UPS Delivered my package to wrong address no matter how many times they are given a correct address. My choice often not working. USPS is far worse, and FEDEX is neck and neck to USPS. Really poor customer service and customer focus.
I WAS WAITING FOR MY TURN TO MAIL A LARGE PACKAGE SO I HAD A TIME
TO OBSERVE THE SERVICE OTHERS WERE GETTING.
ONE GIRL WAS A BRIGHT SHINNING STAR, IT WAS QUITE BUSY BUT SHE
TREATED EVERYONE LIKE THEY WERE HER FIRST CUSTOMERS OF THE DAY. SHE SMILED, HAD A GREAT VOICE AND WAS REALLY OUTSTANDING IN
HER TREATMENT OF THE CUSTOMERS. I TOLD HER I HAD WATCHED HER
AND WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE JOY IN WHICH APPROACHED EVERY
CUSTOMER WITH THIS CHEERY ATTITUDE, LIKE SHE WAS AS FRESH AS A
DAISY.
I OFFERED TO TALK TO HER SUPERVISOR ABOUT HER AND HOW ENGAGED
I WAS WATCHING AND LISTENING TO HER. SHE SAID INSTEAD I WAS TO
PUT THIS ON SITE JABBER INSTEAD, I AGREED, FIVE MONTHS AGO. WILL
LET HER KNOW TOMORROW OF THE FINALLY COMPLETING THIS TASK.
THERE HAPPENED TO BE MORE THAN ONE JASMINE AT THAT STORE AT THE
SAME TIME SO I AGREED TO PUT IN JASMINE T., TO MAKE THE REVIEW FIT
HER.
I AM A THERAPIST, SOMEONE USED TO MONITORING PEOPLE CLOSELY AND
BE ABLE TO ASSESS THEIR PERFORMANCE AND JASMINE WAS REALLY A
GREAT EXAMPLE TO HOW TO GO ABOUT YOUR DAILY WORK AND LEAVE ALL
FEELING GOOD ABOUT THEIR INTERACTION WITH HER. SHE DOES A GREAT
JOB, MUCH HIGHER THAN PERFORMANCE STANDARDS ARE NORMALLY.
CONGRATULATIONS TO HER.

Customer service, customer service, customer service, excellent customer service, excellent customer customer service, and excellent customer service. Thank you!
UPS lost my delivery of a loveseat in September. A replacement was made from the company I ordered from in November. Was supposed to be delivered on the 15th. Called UPS different times and different people they all had different excuses. All had the same story though that the box was dropped, box damaged and had to go back to the depot for inspection and repackaging. Promise of another day of delivery by the supervisor and said 100% on the delivery truck and will be delivered by 830 tonight. Was never delivered. Their own employees don't even know their own services. One of them told me they don't schedule or pre book days or times for delivery. All round rude and abrupt. One of them even hung up on me by placing me back on hold. That employee knows nothing about "my choice". All round lazy they didn't even fill out the date they left attempted to deliver!
UPS NEXT DAY AIR is " GUARANTEED " to arrive by 10:30 am or the shipping charge will be refunded. Did you know that if the carrier is running late with the delivery to the receiver that he can mark the package as "delivered "?! As long as the carrier is " in the area of the receiver " he can falsify the delivery records to avoid being late which will cause UPS to refund the shipping charge. This is acceptable by UPS standards. They are nothing but scam artists!
Stay away from ups I had the ups man ship the packages to eBay buyers from a place the ups truck stops everyday he just took the packages and they never did even ask me what price I wanted to ship the packages for they just shipped them super express and put $100 price tag on each package shipped. UPS has very poor customer service I will never do business with UPS again!
So i had a package delivered back in december and the driver flys up the driveway with the big trucks and breaks our clothes line. Drives about 20 to 30 feet noticing. It goes threw the roof of my shed so now water is leaking into it. They wait almost July to file it to there insurance company. Now almost a year later they have yet to replace the line, pole and fix the shed. So since then we've been forced to use our dryer for everything. Well guess what with 2 patents and 2 children it adds up. Hydro should be covered at your expence being you guys wanna waste months on doing nothing. What is going to be done about this? Cause all she does is drag it on and ignore.
*******@crawco.ca
And now after 10months of having to use our dryer every time cause they keep dragging this on. Here's the reply I get. Even after the driver admitted it was his fault.
I have attached a final release in the amount of $480.25
The rationale for the payment is as follows.
Total cost to repair - $960.50
Less 50% depreciation as building and clothesline are over 5 years old
No increase for hydro
Total amount paid $480.25
Once the final release is signed and sent back to me via email I will be able to process the payment and send it to your address.
Thank you,

Each piece of merchandise I've ordered has been on time delivered and just as beautiful In person as it is in the picture. Awesome product and well worth it.
I ordered some business cards and paid for the fastest delivery option. I received a message it was going to be delivered by UPS Czech Republic on Tuesday 19th September.
I specified in writing a delivery time via the UPS online system. Despite this, UPS tried to deliver the parcel after, not before, 2 PM.
I called the number on the UPS InfoNotice left in my postbox, and was charged extra for calling a special charges number. But it was an answering machine stating UPS had changed their number, and to call another number, for which I was charged again, obviously.
According to the UPS website, I am to "use this InfoNotice to tell the driver what I want to do with the package" and "place it back in the same location where the driver originally left it" (!). Back into my personal postbox, lol? How long is it going to take before the driver finds it there, lol?
I called UPS and was told they won't deliver before 2 PM, on any day, even though their working hours are 9 AM-7 PM. So, I had to collect the parcel the following morning from their depot in the outskirts of the city. When I said that I had paid for fastest delivery option, I was also told I *HAD NOT PAID* for the fastest delivery option (!).
Within seconds of reading the above, the business card company issued me with a refund via PayPal for delivery.
Within seconds of reading the above, UPS Customer Service wrote: "I am a little unsure of how to further assist you further..." Later, "... please tell me what you need sorted out..." And later, still: "You did not explain to me what you needed. If you can take a moment and tell me what you need, I will do all I can for you." (Anthony)
(Can't expect much from someone with no reading comprehension skills whatsoever.)
I advise everyone against using UPS as a delivery company in the Czech Republic - as they are useless and rude.
I will never use UPS again. There customer service employees are flat out rude. They also refuse to deliver a package that I paid to be shipped at my door. They treat me horribly every single time I have a problem. They are the worst company to ever exist in shipping. The customer service employees give false information
They are the worst service.
The title says it all. They broke a very expensive item in transit. They completely removed me from the claim process, and refused to discuss any details of the claim with me until they denied it. They disposed of the damaged portion of the box amd shipped my broken item back to me in the remnants of the box.
They refuse to replace the item.
They also refuse to even refund the shipping and handling charge that I paid for them to ship it in the first place!
They lost a customer to their direct competitor's for good. Never again UPS. Never again.
IF I COULD GIVE 0 STARS I WOULD! I PAID OVER 20$ TO HAVE MY PACKAGE SHIPPED SECOND DAY AIR BECAUSE I NEEDED IT IMMEDIATELY, AND MY PACKAGE GOT
"HELD UP". THEY REFUSED TO ALLOW ME TO PICK MY PACKAGE UP AT THE ACTUAL UPS FACILITY AND THEY REFUSED TO REFUND ME THE EXTRA MONEY I PAID TO HAVE IT SHIPPED IN 2 DAYS WHEN IT DIDNT COME IN 2 DAYS! NEVER AGAIN WILL I USE UPS AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND THAT ANYONE USE THEIR SERVICES.
I use UPS every chance I get. Especially during the holidays. The staff is always helpful and friendly.
2 months ago, I had a shipment from China delivered by UPS in 4 days! The 8 Kg package came intact and everything inside as expected.
This shipping service is one of the best for me. And ofc everyone knows the second one worldwide=) I`ve been using it for quite a long time already and they never made me upset - the delivery is always secure and clean! Thanks for that!
Answer: Because there is ZERO accountability at UPS and they dont care about customers or having business ethics. Answer my question if you can.(Click on my profile and see it)
Answer: Because the management orders the people under them to do it, so it looks good on UPS. And most customers dont bother to complain or write reviews.
Answer: It's driver preference and they don't care. I complained about this. I'm constantly getting medical supplies delivered and they don't care
Answer: Because they don't care! For the life of me, I can't understand why anybody uses them as a delivery service.
Answer: Because they are a very poorly run company. It doesn't even run its offices domestically well, as you can see by the overwhelmingly negative reviews on this site. Use any shipping service over UPS.
Answer: UPS is a disgrace. They are a disregardful and careless business who lies to their costumers. Absolutely will not support ever again!
Answer: Sadly, today the term racist is used to define almost anyone that we disagree with. I am not a happy customer of the ups store but if you are getting death threats you need to contact the police. It is illegal in America to make death threats against anyone no matter their race, creed or color. That is the beauty of living in United States of America. You do not need to wait for a company to file charges against another human being who is threatening your life. You just need to take the appropriate, legal action against that person, good luck!
