Previously bought items all the time from the US via Amazon and paid at most $100 for expedited freight. Ordered a number of items via a US company and they cost over $550 for Bongo to send a lighter smaller package with slower delivery times.

Bongo also try to "helpfully" add a customs and duty pre-payment of $150 which I removed as I knew the order value was well below that which customs would care about.

Parcels were repacked from original good packaging into crappy bongo box which had almost no protection. They damaged some of the items inside (and the items were made out of foam!).

Complete rip-off. Do not ever use!

Amazing bad service
February 14, 2022

I really wish I could rate this company - 5 stars ( minus five)! It's service is so bad that I don't understand how companies with good reputation like Apple, Tesla, and Lowes ( from my experience) use this carrier to send packages to its customer! Everything gets either damage, delayed or missing. I really hate FedEx that's all I can say!

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 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.

Logistics. What's that?
July 20, 2023

You would think a company that has been in business as long as FedEx has would have their logistics in order. My package arrived in Orlando at 6:00 this morning and I live in Orlando. The package was going to my house in Orlando. Well when it got to Orlando, It was then shipped to Davenport Florida which is an hour and 45 minutes from Orlando. They were still saying it would be delivered today by the end of the business day. Well no package. No update to when I will receive my package. And I'm sitting here wondering why the hell my package went to Davenport in the first place. Why would you send a package to Davenport after it came to Orlando which was the city it was being delivered to? I don't understand who runs logistics at FedEx but obviously they aren't up to the job. Great job with your logistics FedEx said no one ever. I can't believe how many one star reviews a company of this size has. Now it has another one.

Spoke w 15 customer service reps over span of 3 days and 7 hours on the phone. Lost package. I had to go drive to the facility and retrieve it myself.

It was a one of a kind item worth 5K. Arrived damaged when I finally found it.

All they did was give empty promises, not help at all, just apologize, and write more notes to confuse the delivery driver.

If I could drive to each reps house personally and punch them in the nose. I would happily let their children watch.

My package (last 5 digits: *******) was shipped from Canada on 2/19/16 ground. Estimated arrival 2/23 according to email from Fedex. It is 2/24/ and I just got an email saying that due to "local weather delay) Fedex may deliver on 2/25. Really? I saw the bloody FedEx track on my route at 6 pm (mile away from my driveway). Lazy bastard was rushing home and chose to ignore my delivery (ground shipping how important could it be? Very, just cheap seller chose to send ground. It wasn't my priority". Weather? 53 F, raining. Is fedex track made of sugar? They are not better than US Postal service. UPS is my carrier now!

FED UP WITH FEDX
April 27, 2022

Fedx constantly delivers to the wrong house. We are an elderly couple and we've had to hunt down our package. I cringe ever time it says delivered by fedx because. It happened again today 4/27/22. We have a big sign at the end of our driveway with out name and street number. Don't know how they can miss it.

Here we go again
July 3, 2023

Same Sh!t different expected delivery. On fedex truck for delivery it says 7/3/23 5:20 AM here I am at 8:25 pm no delivery. Called FedEx and after repeating myself over and over to an automated system I got a love person in the freaking Philippines! Yeah that's gonna help at first she said oh it was delivered at 5:20 am then she corrected herself and said "can you just wait until Wednesday because they won't deliver on the 4th" at that point I just hung up because fedex has never failed to miss delivery dates atleast for me. All I know is online stores need to give the consumer to options of using other methods of delivery. Fedex is absolutely the worst delivery company on the planet and they take zero accountability for their inept service. Don't buy from retailers who use fedex and by all means avoid fedex if you want to receive whT you order.

I've had the unfortunate experience of having to deal with Fedex for an international shipping and I'm going to gladly pay more for a different carrier if I can help it.

I've had to chase these people down to get my boxes out of customs - no one contacted me.

My order didn't make the delivery time - after being released from customs. I understand customs has a bunch of things that trip shipments up. No one contacted me.

My tracking # is unreliable - I don't actually know where my package is. Customer service gives me conflicting information about when and what actually happened.

I paid almost 400$ for two boxes and I'm having to figure out why they aren't doing their jobs.

LIES
April 1, 2022

Stay away from FedEx. Nothing but lies from day one concerning my delivery. Item picked up and traveled right through my town only to go over 500 miles out of the way. In the mean time FedEx employees telling me that item was at terminal on trailer waiting to be unloaded. This company must have a college instructing employees how to lie. All must have failed because they get caught. Stay away from FedEx, use the ole standby USPS. Horaay red, white, and blue.

Terrible
October 24, 2019

I have my Nest cameras to prove it... Day 1 reported an attempt to deliver, never actually came to the house. Day 2 didn't follow given instructions to use door on our front deck where we used the pre signed papers for a delivery that needs a signature because we would be at work... Went to wrong door. Called and complained they said nothing we can do we will try again tomorrow. Called and complained to new person who says they would expedite it to get it there tonight... It's current 632pm tonight... Still waiting... We shall see..

Very Late deliveries
December 19, 2021

I've had 3 separate orders over the past three weeks delayed several days through Pflugerville. Each time the delivery is "on a vehicle for delivery" for days. Two of the orders were fresh food delivered spoiled due to delay. For my business and friends, I don't recommend using FedEx for local deliveries in Round Rock.

HORRIBLE
May 31, 2023

Customer service.sucks. Delivery people? Horrible. Better hope they get your address right because if they deliver to the wrong house you are just plain $#*! out of luck. I actually stopped buying products from companies that ship with Fed Ex because delivery is sketchy AT BEST. It's a crap shoot if you're going to get your package. Go ahead file a claim. See where that gets you. NO WHERE. Sent pictures of my front door to compare to the drivers picture. Not even close to being my house. CLAIM DENIED! WTF

Where do I begin? How about the impossibility to speak to an actual human being. Through a web search of 20 min I found on Reddit how to get in touch with someone and imagine that, useless as reading glasses to a blind man. I live in Martinsburg, WV and our driver apparently doesn't know his@$$ from a hole in the ground as we consistently get notifications that "your package has been delivered." We are like cool! Then as it turns out there is no package to be found and this is the 4th or 5th time just THIS year. We found a couple down the street, at different mailboxes not even on our street and you can't report it. Get a hold of the local office? Not a shot in hell! Get a hold of a representative through a backdoor option? Useless like I said earlier. It is so bad that we have filed so many claims with the main company we order from, they are starting to question our integrity which is something I cannot abide! I may be many things but a thief or a liar... GTFO my face!

Horrible Service
December 1, 2020

Every time i call in, i receive different information about what i can and cannot do with my packages. When i attempt to escalate to a manager, I was advised by the representative that they have been instructed to NOT transfer calls to supervisors. Rather than allow me to reschedule a delivery, they are returning my packages to the shipper. Horrible customer service and policies.

Too close to quitting time
October 15, 2021
Updated review

Eventually had to go the FedEx office and pick my package up. Turns out our neighborhood is near the end of their daily route, and by the time they got close it was too close to quitting time so they headed back to the barn and kept scheduling the delivery for the next day. Meanwhile I have to stay home so I can sign. Unbelievable.

Fedex can't seem to find my house
October 5, 2021
Previous review

Yesterday (Monday) - I was told that my package was out for delivery so I waited all day because I have to sign for it. It never arrived although we saw the Fedex van driving around our neighborhood.
Today (Tuesday) - Fedex says this is the new delivery date and that my package is again out for delivery. Again I had to hang around all day. Again no delivery. Again we saw the van in our neighborhood. It never came down our street. Does the driver not know how to read a map?

I called to complain. The guy said tomorrow for sure. We'll see. Not optimistic. Feeling trapped at home due to Fedex incompetence.

Hit or Miss
February 10, 2022

Fedex has become a hit or miss delivery service. A real coin toss if you get your package on tkmeor not or not at all. Over a month ago they lost my $1400 phone and still looking for it. Now I'm waiting on another pricey item that's couple days late. I don't understand why people use them as if the package isn't late it may not show up at all. Every day that I call about the where abouts of my package they say the same thing "it's on the way to the next stop and I'll get it today. BS
