I ordered a couple of things (a USB CD\/DVD drive enclosure for a laptop drive, and a new graphics tablet) about two weeks ago, which were shipped on 6\/19 via FedEx.  On 6\/21, online tracking indicated that they had been delivered, by leaving them on the front porch, which is typical (even though somebody was home at the time).  I got home, only to find no package.  I immediately  called FedEx, only to find out that the package had been left on the porch of an address somewhat similar to mine &#8211; except on the other side of town.  I was told that the driver would be going out to get it the next day.  I heard nothing the next day, and called FedEx again.  No information, no change in the tracking (still showed delivered). I e-mailed them again on Tuesday, and was advised that I should file a loss claim, which I did.  On Wednesday, the local FedEx called to tell me that they&#8217;d &#8220;try&#8221; to recover the package the next day.  I heard nothing from them,  and today, I got an e-mail stating that my claim had been decided, and they&#8217;d be sending me a letter in a week or so to tell me what it was they decided.  So, I e-mailed them and asking what the hell they decided.  Turns out, they denied my claim, with no reason as to why.  So, I called them, and was told &#8220;sorry, the person handling your claim is gone, call her Monday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I am unable to properly express my frustration and anger at this.  These fuckers knew immediately that they&#8217;d delivered it to the wrong address, and they have totally blown me off through the whole process, never communicated with me unless I initiated it, and I still don&#8217;t have the goddamn stuff I ordered.  And now it looks as if they want to screw me out of the money entirely.  I&#8217;m pissed.  It&#8217;s not that they delivered it to the wrong address, so much (shit happens), but that they have totally blown me off.<\/p>\n<p>I, personally, will never do business with a company that ships via FedEx ever, ever, again.  And I sure as hell won&#8217;t be shipping anything with them again.  <\/p>\n<p>OK, I&#8217;m done.  Gonna go see Sicko today, even though we already had a little &#8220;sneak preview&#8221; of it last week.  I think everybody ought to get out there and see it.  The fucking insurance companies must have given FedEx a lesson on how to screw people over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OK, so here&#8217;s my story.
