FedEx Sucks So Much (official thread)

[Brood Lone Wolf Funker]

As someone who is a shipping manager it goes
UPS
FED Ex
USPS
I hate dealing with both Fed Ex and USPS both have habits of not scanning our orders or miss a scan so it show no movement plus getting a hold of someone is near impossible even before covid. We have them scheduled for a 4pm pick up daily yet they show up late all the time and their customs procedures suck ass. When we ship ground to international locations we have to do extra paperwork but if we express the orders customs is paperless. UPS is the easiest one to use for me

Fedex is legitimately one of the worse shipping company I had to deal it. I had stuff either get send to the wrong location, lost or stolen by them to the point where I had to open up an PO BOX and request place to send it through a different service instead FedEx. A couple years ago, I had to get an replacement phone and a Fedex driver pretty much try to tell me that the address I live at for about 10 years didnt existed when he "try" to deliver it to me.

Hell just a couple days ago, I had to take my roommate to another town because Fedex couldnt bother following the delivery instructions and when we got there, one of the service desk employee wasnt wearing a mask when my state currently has a mandatory mask order in place atm. So seriously f*** fedex.

In terms of sending stuff:

I normally send stuff Hermes, have only ever had one parcel go missing sending, then one receiving.

Bigger stuff I send CollectPlus (which is just Yodel), only issue I've had was with a flat block (apartment building for our Yanks) that a driver couldn't be arsed to go into.

Have had a few things go missing Royal Mail, both sending and receiving.
