UPS – Page 67

I am returning a package to a business and received the instructions. UPS stopped by on December 7th and left message they will return on December 8th, they did not returned. When I called UPS, the driver reported he stopped by and the package was not available, Untrue! The package had been on the back porch since the late evening of the December the 7th, to be ready for pickup on the 8th. No slip was left stating they had been by. In fact, I was trying to reach UPS around the time the driver indicated he had attempted pickup ( 3:36 p.m.). I could understand them saying the weather was to bad, unable to locate the house or anything other than they stopped by and the package was not ready.
I had to moved the package to the front porch because he was getting wet on the back porch.

On Friday, December 8, at 16:43, I encountered a UPS driver most likely shortcutting through a low speed, residential neighborhood in the Mount Rainer area of DC/MD. This was specifically at the intersection of Monroe St. & Eastern Ave. where I was stopped at a red traffic light waiting to proceed straight across to 34th St. as the law requires. Your driver pulled up behind me on this two lane road with one lane in each direction. I usually go out of my way to stay left and as far forward as safely possible in case someone wants to turn right on red. This is NOT a requirement, but I try to be courteous and am especially aware of the difficulties of drivers this time of the year.

In this case the driver yelled for me to "move up", which, if he would have been situationally aware, would have been into heavy traffic. At that point I said I would have actually considered moving (which would have been to the sidewalk since it was a narrow lane, not a two lane situation and NEVER would he have asked a car or motorcycle to do the same - I have the same rights and responsibilities as any motor vehicle) if he hadn't been rude and unreasonable. At this point, as I attempted to photograph his plate, he went into the oncoming traffic lane and passed, turning right onto Eastern Ave in front of me.

Either this driver has very unprofessional and dangerous driving skills or your employee training is severely lacking, or a combination of both. My next step is to inform fellow cyclists in the MD State police force of this driver's illegal behavior, but I just wanted to give you a heads up.

Today is 12/8/17... 2 packages were supposed to be delievered on 12/6/17... I called ups customer support and was told the packages had been scanned out and were on a truck to be delievered today. Well, it is now 10pm and still no packages. Ends up that when it's quitting time, it's quitting time and who cares if your packages are late, the driver dropped his truck off with packages still left inside and went home. On top of everything else i am also informed they won't deliver on sat so now I have to wait till Monday for my promised today, already late packages. This is bull crap, I will no longer use ups, don't care if it costs more.

Appropriately 6:00 pm on Friday Dec 8th I was tailgated (followed within two car lengths) on Hwy 101 slightly south of Santa Rosa California by a UPS package truck. In the ten miles leading up to the driver tailgating, we (myself and the driver of the UPS vehicle) navigated through 3 (THREE) different car accidents on HWY 101. The worst place possible for the driver to be following closely, and the driver was doing just that. The driver was following me so closely that for two miles I could not see his headlights in my rearview mirrors. Once the driver passed my vehicle, I watched them then tailgate multiple other drivers. I'm rediculously upset about this; my family is in this vehicle. I highly doubt that UPS would enjoy buying me a new car, or pay medical bills in the possible and probable case of injury to myself or family member of mine, due to the UPS drivers negligence. This needs to be addressed with the driver; whomever was assigned the truck tagged 37609S1 (California Plate)

Prime choice chipped the products from Ottawa to Edmonton using UPS Standard, tracking number 1Z0A89R22041728948; suppose to be delived at residence by end of Dec 6, 2017.
On Dec 6, 2017, UPS tracking information started showing that tracking information that street information is incorrect.
Residence verified with UPS that his address is correct even that UPS did NOT picked up the package on Dec 7, 2017.

UPS just deliver the package when they were free NOT within their delivery standard.
SO, after receiving the package I checked the label that prime choice company attached, which showed the correct address of my house.
My first concern is why UPS lied that street address is Wrong.
I would like to get refund for their bad service for what they lied to me; as I had my appointment made with someone for which I had to buy this stuff locally.

On 12/8/2017, I received a package from my neighbor down the street. It was addressed to me at 5616 N HILLS DR; RALEIGH, NC 27612. But it was delivered to my neighbor at 5516 N HILLS DR. Upon opening the package, I found the contents (a nice ornamental outdoor snowman) was broken. The snowman's hat was broken in the back and both limbs snapped off. The contents were packed in foam and bubble wrap.

This is the second time I received a package from UPS with damaged contents. It appears to be due to rough handling.

Customer Services People are so rude, when is Cody and Vanessa as a supervisor, she kept talking over me and i called customer service because my packaged didn't arrived, and they said because they couldn't get in. I been here 9yrs in this same address and never had and issue. but i guess u guys have new drivers and they are so lazy to drop off the package. I'm a disabled person and can't go and get the packaged. Vanessa saying she's the supervisor cody as a customer services never apologize for being rude i told them they were being recorded by me and they right away changed their tone on me, they got mad when i told them i wanted the driver or id # they didn't have that information. they were being smart with me in other words being a smart mouth. Today's Date is DEC 8TH 2017 I WILL LET" PIER 1 IMPORTS NOT TO DO BUSINESS WITH U! MY TRACKING #IZ89R5490327037508 THIS # I CALLED FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE [protected] THIS IS THE TIME I CALLED AT 8:29 AM I LIVE IN DOWNEY, CA

I've had numerous packages delivered via UPS and recently begin having issues with one driver who would place my package in my driveway, at the foot of my porch stairs, behind my car, and recently on 12/07/2017 drive up the street make a u turn and drive off at a scheduled delivery time as i watched ( that package was never delivered to me and signed for by another person- i've never had to sign for packages from this company before. Tracking number 1Z0476YW03923610G8) I have no pets and live in a cul de sac with well spaced homes so there couldn't have been a failure to locate the address. Even tho the company refunded my payment i'm not to keen on ordering items if they have to be delivered using UPS.

on monday dec.4th Jim(my normal driver) ran over my dog(Jade) in my driveway. i live at 827 State hwy H, Forsyth, MO 65653. my driveway is about 200 ft long. about 50 feet from the house the dogs always run out to meet everyone. Jim always drives too fast up or drive. after running over my Jade jim did not even stop, even with the yelping. i ran to the dog and jim waited at the house for someone to sign for package. he said "sorry" as he drove by on his way out. i took my dog Jade to the vet immediately. Jade had to be put down the next morning. Jim has been our driver in this area for a long time and everyone that he talks to knows how much Jim hates dogs. Jim hasnt even returned to see how Jade was.
I feel like i should be reimbursed for all the vet costs. It is not going to bring my baby back but it is the right thing to do. the total bill was $448.48. I have no way to send invoice but i can have the vet do it monday if you can let me know where to send it.
Thanks for your help

I have already reported both incidents to UPS and was told I would get a call back within the hour. No one has ever called me.

My first incident was when a UPS driver left 2 valuable packages OUTSIDE my office. When I reported it, I was told someone from the Uvalde, TX office would contact me. The driver not only left my packages unattended and unsecured, he forged my signature.

The second incident was when a UPS driver tossed a valuable package through the wrought iron fence at my school. AGAIN...unsecured and AGAIN, forged my signature.

I have been more than patient awaiting reply for someone, and I will not be ignored.

Forgery is a felony. If I am not contacted within 24 hours, I will be seeking legal action.

I ordered a Christmas tree from Home Depot.com it was scheduled to be delivered by UPS December 1, 2017 only half of it arrived four days late .I have been on the phone with Home Depot and UPS for one whole week I still do not have any end in sight of getting the second half of my Christmas tree due to the incompetence of UPS. I will never use UPS when it is within my power I whole heartedly think that they are incompetent and in capable of doing their job. I am sick of the excuses why my christmas is now ruined.

To whom it may concern,

Today 12/7/17 at approximately 2pm my husband and i visited the 320 E. Napoleon St UPS Store in Sulphur, La. to send back some pre-packaged text books that i had rented. We had prepaid labels on the packages and were simply needing to ship them.

After our arrival to the counter, following an attempt to ship our packages we were told that our tape "wasn't good enough" and that we needed more tape prior to sending the packages. We immediately asked the employee if she could provide us with a few pieces of tape to reinforce our packages. Her answer to our question was "no we don't do that here". We then asked whether or not there was tape available for purchase. She pointed to the wall without saying a word. As my husband looked through several rolls of tape in an attempt to find the correct tape he could not find any that was clear so he asked the same employee whether or not there was any clear tape available. She shook her head no without bothering to say a word to assist him with his question or his quest to find clear tape.

Another employee overheard our struggle to find the correct clear tape and pointed us in the right direction while she (the RUDE employee) continued to stand there and stare at us as if we were a complete bother to her.

After we attempted several times to use the tape that we had just purchased for $11.00 to reinforce our already taped package we began to have problems getting the tape to work correctly. The tape was cheap and would not tear evenly. She continued to watch us struggle with the tape while staring at us the entire time not once offering to assist.
After struggling with the tape for long enough I decided to find another employee to ask whether or not there were any other options for us to tape the packages. He immediately stated "sure we can tape that for you for $1 a package". I was immediately dumbfounded and in complete shock that an employee of a company as reputable as UPS could be so RUDE and unwilling to help a paying customer or any customer for that matter.

SHE CONTINUED TO STAND THERE WHILE LISTENING TO THE CONVERSATION WE WERE HAVING WITH THE NICE EMPLOYEE WHO OFFERED TO ASSIST US AND NEVER ONCE OFFERED US AN APPOLOGY OR EXPLANATION FOR WHY SUCH A SEEMINGLY SIMPLE TASK TURNED OUT TO BE SUCH A LENGTHY AND INCONVENIENT PROCESS! She could have offered us an explanation to CLARIFY why she said NO when we asked her for tape in the beginning.

I would like for this employee to be made aware of how horrible her attitude is, how completely unimportant she makes customers feel and how clear it is that she dislikes her job! I would also like for management to know how negatively this treatment effects UPS!

ALL shipments, especially ground service shipments do not arrive to California from Houston Tx. on time.
While it is understood that ground shipments are not guaranteed, we continually do not receive our shipments in a reasonable time frame. What should be 3 days is almost always 6-7 days, in fact currently still waiting on a shipment that is now over 7- days that appears to have barely left Houston. Nothing to do with the holidays, this is the norm. Have been told by your customer service to assure delivery, ship by air, I would hope that UPS realizes that not all shipments companies ship from vendors can absorb the high cost of air. But this seems to be the mentality UPS has. Your organization obviously has severe issues in your Houston hub. For over a year now we have experienced this continued issue, having used UPS for over 36 years, even shipping from same vendor, I have never experienced such lousy service and an attitude of not caring.

I am a resident in Newark NJ, 07103 zip code area, and for the past 2 months I have been receiving my mail after 6pm every day. I think this absolutely unacceptable! I receive emails from usps at 9am stating my mail is arriving in my mailbox and it doesn't show up in my mailbox until AFTER normal business hours and I'd like an explanation.
I have asked all of my neighbors about the delivery of their mail, and all of us are frustrated with the inconvenience of not received our mail until we wake up the following morning. Someone needs to address why our mail is arriving so late in the evenings in our area please.

On Thursday, December 7, 2017, I spoke to three UPS customer service representatives regarding a package (1ZV7855E0343677818) that was being delivered to my home. I was calling to request that the package be sent to a UPS Customer Service center so that I can pick it up at my convenience. The two attempts for a driver to deliver it were made were during the day while I was at work. Since there is not an option to schedule a delivery time for the $700 item I have purchased, I was hoping to have other options for delivery.

After waiting for over 15 minutes on my first two calls to UPS Customer Service I was told that because of the restrictions set by the shipper, they could not send the item there. I then contacted the shipper - Best Buy who after speaking to several customer services representatives there, contacted UPS to discuss options for delivery. When both companies representatives were speaking to me together, the UPS representatives was not very courteous and gave me no other option but to have someone wait for 10 hours at my house until a driver showed up with my package. I explained that this was not an option and that it should be allowed per the customers request t have it sent to a UPS Service Center.

At this, he then changed the reasoning it could not be sent there and told me that it was too large of a package to have it sent there. I informed him that I was at UPS Service Center yesterday to pick up another package (by my request) and there were several boxes larger than my television sitting on the floor of that store (Some as large as a refrigerator). He told me that was not possible and would not work with me to resolve my problem. He then disconnected from the call.

It is very disappointing that no other options were available to me, as the customer. The representative I spoke with offered no alternatives and was not interested in helping me.

While I realize this is a busy shipping time of the year, I do not understand why it makes more sense to waste three attempts of a delivery driver to bring a package where no one is home to receive it, than to have it sent to a UPS store for a customer to pick it up at their convenience. I feel as though this would be the more efficient decision for a company to make. I hear of the long hours your drivers work during the holidays especially and allowing customers to have more input would help to eliminate wasted company time.

I have since cancelled my order and therefore a resolution is no longer an option for me. This is quite disappointing. If anything, UPS should examine the limited delivery options available and provide options that are more convenient for working customers, especially in a consumer culture that has increased the amount of online shopping.

Sincerely,
Shannon Carey

Recently I've been sent an update email the morning of a promised delivery that I would NOT be getting my delivery that day but another day? !

The driver just went past my home at 6:02p. I've had deliveries as late as 8:20p the month of busy December in prior years.

This is the SECOND delayed delivery I've experienced from UPS in 3 weeks.

Unacceptable! Both deliveries were of meds that I needed the day it was scheduled to arrive.

UPS is too cheap to hire extra holiday drivers...

On Friday December 1st about 5:10 pm

A UPS driver was tailgating me 2ft from the rear of my car 40 mph on international blvd north bound left lane from S. 170th to S 166th. In the city of Seatac

A suburban suddenly turning left in front of me from international blvd south bound left turn lane caused me to hit my brakes and the UPS driver that was tailgating me almost hit me and have to serve suddenly & violently to avoid hitting me but almost hit another vehicle.

When I held down my horn for a few seconds the UPS Driver flipped me off by sticking his fist OUT OF THE DRIVER WINDOW with his middle finger EXTENDED .

He was then speeding and strattleing two lanes all the way to 160th. His next delivery was at an Administrative bldg.

Ups drivers are speeding on cavendish crescent at an alarming rate...3-4 times a week. There are children, pets and seniors walking all the time on this street and your drivers are driving 70-80 klms an hour at all times of the day. This needs to stop. We have contacted the police, so talk to your drivers before someone is hurt or worse. You hire good drivers but a few of them make it look bad for all your drivers. Please advise!

DO NOT SHIP WITH UPS - absolutely the worst service ever. I was supposed to receive a package on Tuesday, then it was changed to Wednesday. On Wednesday, I still do not have my package, so I called UPS customer service, they had no idea where my package was and why it was not delivered, but recommended to put it on hold and go pick it up at UPS facility in Seacaucus NJ. Not sure why I am paying for shipping, if I have to go pick it up, but since I needed this package by Thursday morning, I agreed to go. So on Thursday morning, I called UPS again to confirm that my package was ready for pick up, they confirmed it was. I went to Seacaucus NJ and surprise: they couldn't find a package. I spent almost $100 for cab rides! As of now, still no package. And I am leaving for Europe today (Thursday) and have no gifts to bring with me.
