FedEx calls it 'Failed Delivery'.
They don't knock.
No, that's the Feds.
That would be if they arrived at the wrong door.
And then shot your dog.
Classic Feds giving the ol "shoot an innocent being" tactics
No that's Mr. White
FedEx in Sweden doesn't even leave their warehouse to succeed in making their failed delivery. Same with UPS. It's honestly impressive how successful these two companies can suck at doing the only thing they're enlisted to do.
I can see in tracking that my packages first get scanned upon arrival to their regional warehouse, and then within 15-30 minutes it becomes "failed delivery, no one home". Even if I was to be their first stop, driving from the warehouse to my house would take at least 2 hours. Maybe they're actually trucking it at 300km/hr, but then I'd notice the police chase. But no truck ever seen. Many days I worked from home because I was to get an urgent package that never came.
After the first few times, I joined their "My Choice" and "Delivery Manager" or whatever they call it... but that did absolutely nothing, even if I explicitly choose "leave the package at my doorstop, I don't care if someone steals it", the shit still never leaves their warehouse!
I have never seen the face of a single FedEx or UPS man in real life, despite having 30+ packages from them over the years. Maybe they don't dare to show themselves after screwing me over for so many years...? But then they could at the least just throw my packages outside my door and run for their life instead of hoping I'm going to drive to your warehouse and pick it up myself!
If I want to buy something and don't see a PostNord or DHL option, I'm not buying. And if it ends up being FedEx/UPS somehow, I contact the seller to choose something else, or to just give me a refund directly, because it's not gonna arrive.
And what might come as a surprise for some Germans, DHL here works wonderfully basically 100% of the time. Thank you Germans for doing your jobs ❤️
Quite incorrect! It forced you to personally confirm and link together your full name, address, phone number, residential IP address, and your mobile device’s various advertising ID numbers. This information is much more valuable to them than any postage you will ever pay.
“But GDPR, they can’t just…” lol, the enforcement agencies don’t touch these American conglomerates and they know it.
Place I used to live would occasionally get FedEx and never get UPS. I had to rent a mailbox to get them to deliver consistently. The company I rented the mailbox from was right next door to me, btw.
Funny you should mention PostNord. In Finland (at least a couple of years back) "LostNord" seems to be the delivery option people complain the most about. As in people yelling at the telephone going "I was home all day and I could see the van driving right past the house around the time the tracker says the attempt failed" and then they get to have a week long ordeal figuring out which warehouse their parcel is in.
(Apparently they blame the contractors. Also, can't say much about this myself, all of the stuff I've gotten over PostNord were letterbox-size parcels which got delivered fine.)
Those FedEx scumbags creep up to your door like a ninja, slap the sticker tag on your door, and sneak off with the package still in the van.
That's if they knock at all
False, FedEx don't knock
