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.

The company sent me my first E mail ( package will be there Monday) ordered parcel on the Monday after, ok. Then I get another E mail saying your package will be there earlier Friday, i check the traker at noon, it left the depot in Lachine at9:30 am I figured by dinner lt will be here( I live 45 minutes from the depot). At 8:30 I called UPS what a waste of time, apparently it had the wrong address (not true), and on tracking it was now in transit, We are now Monday no package
Ups is the worlds worst shipping carrier. You can always count on them to $#*! something up (literally). They lie about delivery dates, deliver packages with no care whatsoever, and literally use COVID as an excuse for all their $#*! ups (even the $#*! ups they'd do before the pandemic). Bottom line: Try to make this your last resort for a shipping carrier. Nothing but disappointments from UPS
My package said it was out for delivery for today and then sometime between 4 and 5 it changed to processing for delivery. Amazon needs to switch or just keep with FedEx.
WIth an initially estimated delivery for early this week (1st December as per the email provided by the vendor who contracted the delivery service), then estimated delivery time was delayed to 3rd December, and now to 11th December. UPS firsly said that the service contracted only obliges them to deliver the product in 5 working days maximum. When accounting the days from the date they collected the package (1st December at the end), they are delivering (if they finally do, fingers crossed) on the 6th day (they don't account the 1st December as they collected after 4 p.m. in the afternoon). Poorest courier service I have experienced ever.
I had made contact with UPS for a job offer as a drivers helper. After texting someone from ups they made me fill out paper work and come in on Thursday at 1Pm December 3rd. I showed up to the interview early and walked into the building. After a 10 second conversation with someone at the front desk they turned me away. No interview no questions asked. They had the audacity to tell me when i showed up for the interview that there were no more jobs available. No text message no email or anything they waited until i showed up for a scheduled 1 hour interview we had planned for all week. I do not recommend UPS for a job or to ship your packages. They have show me a level of disrespect and laziness that goes on in the company and are very flawed
Yesterday, I awaited the much anticipated delivery of my brand new iphone 12 max plus, which cost me over 1900$. The UPS van finally arrived 4 hours after the scheduled delivery window, and I opened my door as I didn't want my new phone waiting outside in the rain. The driver said hello then proceeded to throw my package from the bottom of my 6 concrete stairs, to my feet, from a good 25 feet away. When I gasped and told him that was a 2k phone he just threw on concrete, he responded that the package wasn't tagged as fragile. As if throwing any package was ever a good idea. I now don't trust that my brand new phone wasn't somehow damaged, and am scared i just lost 2k.
Yes, I have had my frustrations with delivery services whether it is our United States Postal Service or UPS or FedEx. It hasn't been great due to contactless delivery, where the delivery person doesn't even knock at the door. But, today I received a call from Robert informing me that my delivery couldn't be sent to my local UPS because it was wine. Unfortunately, I missed the delivery. Then later today Robert called again because he saw that my package had returned to the warehouse. Honestly, with all the package deliveries I was honored that not only did Robert make an effort to contact me in the first place, he remembered me when he saw the package had returned. I only hope that he is able to see this review. I did not get his last name. I'm not even sure which warehouse my package came from. I believe it may have been from Watsonville, California.
Sent a package. Paid insurance, and for the to package it. Was going to Lubbock Tx, but was delivered to Kansas instead. They delivered the package and even had someone at the wrong address sign for it. I found this out less than 2 hours after it was delivered. It took UPS over 48 hours to send someone out to try and recover. No luck. I filed a claim as i had insurance in it. Now i have been getting the run around been over three weeks, no call backs as promised nothing. Very disappointed.
I ordered rush prints (as is advertised on their website). I put my trust for my business in them, but when I went to pick them up, they refused to print it for me, though I had paid and already had my confirmation.
Every UPS shipment that I receive is always late I make plans to be home anticipating my delivery on the date specified and when it gets closer to 7-8pm suddenly the delivery changes to no information available.UPS really has to figure out how to get shipments on time or just don't give expected delivery dates why do we have to suffer if your running late
This is unfair company with no respect or communication with they customers. I received a Package from French and never the Package was delivered. This company need to close a business in the USA.
Had a package delivered by UPS from 2 hours away and it arrived the same day as a package I had ordered that same day from a different country. It took them 2 weeks to get a package to me from 2 hours away. Every time I've used them it's had a problem of some kind. Do not recommend
Waited all day for a delivery of a replacement credit card that had been hacked. I was told that I may have to sign for delivery so I stayed home all day. At 7 PM a neighbor delivered the parcel as it was delivered a block away. When I called UPS to report this-I was told I would need the truck # that misdelivered the package. Absolutely no customer service.
I send four boxes north from Florida last week. Two contained crocheted hats, two contained small paintings that I took great care to wrap. A small child could have carried all four easily, they were so light. It cost me close to $200.00. One of the two painting boxes (marked fragile) was thrown onto the deck in front of its recipient. The other box (also marked fragile) was kicked in badly. Turns out that recipient actually worked for UPS and informed me they take special glee in damaging anything that says FRAGILE. This company is deplorable. You took a great deal of my money and your employees are out to ruin shipments. I will NEVER use this company again.
As a business we rely on shipping to maintain out facility. That being said, we don't need the items we order to conduct business being damaged or lost by UPS. Then, if you try to contact them. The only way is to speak to a virtual customer service rep. That's a joke, much like their business. And then try waiting for a call back. You would have better luck wishing for a winning lottery ticket number! I usually only post positive things about a business because its easy to complain but harder to take the time to compliment. In this situation I feel I must speak out.
I would highly urge you to take your time and money elsewhere, as it will not be valued or respected by this company or its team of employees. Don't let yourself get sucked into their horrible process, you may think it's just a small package you're delivering, but before you know it you're left trying to get in contact with the employees who will not help you and flat out don't care.
I received an email saying my package was delivered. I talked to a UPS customer rep on the phone. He told me i had to contact the shipper! I said you are the shipper. He began to laugh and explain how UPS (blah, blah, blah -- translation - - "I don't care that you didn't receive your package." Why isn't there accountability for poor service at UPS?
The worse service costumer the call for update my address there time still not done I call three time to tell them where is my package they tell on the track i call agin tell me still in the not picket from the facility worse driver they have worse customer service they don; t care about customer service they lie to you all the time ups worse then anybody there
UPS driver stole my package and then deleted two destinations off their website tracking. UPS has lied repeatedly about the package even being out for delivery as they claim tracking can't be altered. I have attached the screen shots which show they did infact do that. I have gotten calls from UPS which claimed that the driver could not deliver it without verification of my address which is a joke as the delivery driver was at my house with the other part of my order.
Horrible company. The district manager has blocked all deliveries to our charity's address, telling us it will be in place forever because we complained that their delivery people were throwing expensive packages over the fence onto the grass next to the sprinkler after dark. The sprinklers go off in the early morning and have ruined hundreds of dollars worth of books. The last delivery was an iPhone that had cost more than $1500, which the driver left at night on the driveway next to a lawnmower in a totally nonsecure area. UPS has stated that everything must now be picked up at their hub, which is a 14 mile trip with an hour-long wait in line because of the pandemic. Furthermore, UPS doesn't even supply notification that items are being delivered. Uncounted packages have been lost as a result, as after some time, UPS either returns them to the sender or disposes of them. This is unacceptable and in many cases, as with Amazon and Best Buy, UPS is a de facto monopoly as they are the only carrier used. If this is not resolved forthwith, there will be a lawsuit in anticipation of millions of dollars (as this is a perpetual charity) worth of lost revenue and time, along with a request for punitive damages. I myself am not litigious, but when a district manager does this because of my race because I have been the one to have had to repeatedly call about damage to irreplaceable 150-year-old-books. UPS has no number to corporate. All calls go to the Philippines. Understandable for a company that could not care less about their customers.
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!
