Is it possible the seller gave you an incorrect tracking number?

We have good service with Fed-Ex.

I am not a huge fan of Fedex. I get UPS and never an issue. A few months ago FedEX deleivered a very expensive item to a sorting table at an outdoor mail area where I live. We have a huge deck for deliveries and our address was clearly written on the label. Thank Goodness a lady in our community contacted us and asked if we knew the package was sitting there. They have also delivered two separate rug orders to a wrong address and left another expensive order on the porch of a neighbor and he brought it to us, If it hadn't been for nice/honest neighbors we would have had several hundreds dollars in lost merchandise. NOW I look at all options for delivery before I order something. I try to make sure it's not through them! Heck even though the mail is slower than slow they usually find me!

I will pay EXTRA when mailing any important items to use UPS.

Today I had to mail some very important medical documents - I paid a "premium" charge but NO WAY was I trusting USPS or Fed Ex to LOSE THEM...

 

UPS drivers actually are employed by UPS and I'm yet to have a missing or misdirected package/letter delivered by them.

 

It's worth the extra $$$

And I thought it was just me. FedEx is the worst here. UPS is the best; USPS is next best.

I do not care for FedEx at all.  Their deliveries have been terrible.  Delivery dates constantly get moved further and further out.  I had a package that was "out for delivery" that was not delivered for a week.  I kept getting text messages that delivery was delayed and the next day another text telling me the item was out for delivery. 

 

My office sent out checks via FedEx overnight and they were never delivered.  When we contacted them, we were told they got delayed in I believe Maryland. We are in Ohio.  3 days later and they were still "stuck" in Maryland.  This was in January and to date they have never been delivered and we have never received them back.  And FedEx refused to refund us for the overnight charges.  A stop payment had to be put on the checks which cost over $200.00.

I don't think so because when Fed Ex pulled it up, it had my address and didn't know why if it had just been dropped off at the location as to why it was saying delivered. 

 

I'm still not comfortable as now I have no way of tracking it. I called again and now when I enter the tracking number it says that a claim has been submitted and all parties will be reviewed. I have no idea what that means but the lady I spoke to early yesterday did say I would receive it on the 16th by 6p so I'm anxiously waiting for the 16th.

Fedex is ok where I live but I'm looking forward to their new and improved vans because they will be air conditioned although that could mean the cab area only...don't know.  Amazon Prime frequently uses privately owned air conditioned cars to deliver packages; not sure if their modern looking vans also have it but I do occasionally buy supplements and I appreciate that at least they spend the last leg of its journey with air conditioning.

Update - I received my Fed Ex package this morning. I love my new chain and it fit perfect on my Bible pendant. Chain is strong and weighty, 10 grams and great price.
