UPS Reviews Summary

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.

Excuse after Excuse
September 5, 2023

My order was "Out for Delivery" and then the night ended. So I called UPS and I was told "something wrong with the package" like it was an Alien, mean while it is a T-shirt. When I call them out on that it is we have not heard from the driver so just need to wait. What? It was out for delivery why did you not deliver it, Then instead of just delivering the next day because they were mad they moved my delivery date to literally 4 days later. So whatever you do beware the childish revenge when you let them know you do not believe the lies they tell. I would rather have honesty. We were busy or could not get it, but not the package was strange. Just horrible disappointing service from the driver to customer service. But as

I would rate UPS UK with 0 stars. I attempted to file a claim for my damaged package, and it took a month to process. However, the claim amount I received was insufficient. I had to resend my products, repack them, and pay for delivery to my customer again, but the compensation was minimal. They claim to have paid me, but I cannot locate my payment.This is the worst delivery service I have ever experienced! Given the high delivery fees, I expected better service. I strongly advise against using UPS!

Worst service ever
September 1, 2023

Useless service, I wonder if they ever deliver the package on time, never had a good experience with UPS, but this time it was funny, I was home all day working from and had the tracking page open to see if there was any update in tracking but did not see any change I waited a whole day for my package, no update nothing, and about 6 pm I checked the status and it said "The receiver was not available for delivery" like seriously? I was home all day looking at my window and did not see your UPS vehicle. I called useless customer service he said the package would be delivered before noon tomorrow guess what it is 3:30 and no sign of the package. This is a Useless service, I always try to make sure my sender never uses UPS and try to make sure people I know dont use this they are not on time.

Terrible delivery service
September 1, 2023

Customer service can't answer any questions, the automated system is a joke. My package was delivered for weather when it was sent out before the weather. After the time it was supposed to get here got an update that package is delayed. Why wait till after I'm expecting to get it to tell me it's delayed. Plus fed ex picked up a package at same place with same delivery date and they had it here a day earlier.

The competent delivery driver delivered my college textbook and daughters old navy pants to my neighbors house. My neighbor is a thief and the textbook wasn't convenient to keep, but the old navy clothes were. I needed both ASAP and paid extra shipping for secured delivery. I wish I could give them 0 stars. Terrible service.

Horrible Service!
August 31, 2023

UPS has messed up my deliveries despite several phone calls to customer service to correct problem. The delivery driver took it upon him/herself to require a signature even though there was no request for a signature from sender nor myself! I spent hour long conversations with a UPS representative who confirmed that no signature was required. My instruction was to leave packages at the front office which he confirmed as well. Next, the representative assured me that a local UPS dispatcher would contact me. That person left a voicemail saying that package will be left in locked box by mailboxes and should I have any questions, call 800 pickUPS. My packages were never left! Instead, they were left at an access point that was very far from my apartment! Then, the packages were returned to sender immediately!

The situation now worsens. The company resends my packages and I come home to find a note from driver stating that a signature was required and front office refused to sign for it. Delivery will be attempted one more time. Another hour long phone with customer who assured me that packages would be left at front office the next day. I come home to find another note from delivery person stating the same thing and now underlining the words will not leave several times!

Again, my packages are returned. Again, the company resends my packages. The same story happens and I'm furious. The representative now said that it's up to the delivery person to decide if a signature is needed!

UPS has become the most obnoxious company to deliver packages!

I have been waiting for a third delivery by this useless shipper. The second time it was returned to sender because they said my address was incorrect. I verified my address looking at the tracking information and with customer service. Now a third time and this shipment has gone sour. Totally incompetent.

I have all my parcels delivered to the UPS store my preferred method due to porch pirates. This particular parcel they want to deliver to my home I don't know why I know it's not a weight issue. I have to show ID at the store and sign for it. I asked the shipper to reach out and assist. UPS, FEDEX and others are not my preferred carrier I do not recommend for anything. USPS is my preferred service due to the fact that they will hold my parcel at the post office if they cannot deliver to my home.

UPS has become the most unreliable courier company for business deliveries. We got burnt twice in less than two months by their inability to deliver our RFP responses to customers in time. They do not even respond to our calls. The amount of money they charge us is ridiculous for overnight and 2nd-day delivery. Our package was not delivered on both types of services. I highly recommend businesses that think twice before you use their service.

Oh boy, where do I begin? First off, I truly believe that everyone can have an off day, and sometimes things can get a bit chaotic in the world of delivery. However, with UPS, it's starting to feel less like an occasional mishap and more like a recurring theme.

Let's talk about consistency – or in UPS's case, the lack thereof. I've been expecting packages from them, and they've given me expected delivery dates which I've looked forward to. But then, as the day approaches, it's like they're playing a game of musical delivery dates with me. I get an email saying, "Surprise! We'll deliver it tomorrow instead." Okay, not a big deal, life happens. But then tomorrow comes and guess what? Another email pops into my inbox with a new twist: "Hang tight! Your package will now come next week." Really? Again? This isn't just a one-off incident. It has been the story of my life for the last four packages. At this point, I might as well treat their delivery dates as horoscopes – take them with a pinch of salt and don't set your expectations too high.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the communication. Emails are great. But I'd rather have fewer emails with accurate information than a daily fictional story about when my package might or might not arrive. It's almost like they're writing me a suspense novel in installments, except I didn't sign up for that kind of drama.

I genuinely want to be understanding. The delivery business is tough, and I'm sure there are countless factors that can lead to delays. But when it becomes a pattern, it's hard to remain patient. If UPS is facing challenges, I'd appreciate transparency and a genuine effort to improve, rather than what feels like being strung along.

In conclusion, while UPS does eventually get the job done (yes, the packages do finally arrive, in case you were wondering), the journey to get there has more twists and turns than a mystery novel. If you choose to use UPS, just be prepared for some unpredictability and remember to manage your expectations.

Terrible Service
August 16, 2023

I was recently waiting for a delivery when I receive a text that my package is"undeliverable" (because I live in an apartment). I literally received the text as the truck was in front of the building. I ran outside as the truck drove away! They can text me that they won't deliver but they won't text me to let me know they are there?! They then refused to deliver and wanted me to go to their building to pick it up. They eventually delivered it after I insisted that they do so. They used to to do the same thing when I lived in a house. This service doesn't seem to have much motivation to actually deliver. I would never choose to use their service EVER.
