I don't think that either Fed-Ex or Ups have my approval any more with shipping. Many times Ups or fed-ex has not delivered packages with in a reasonable time and they don't knock on your door, they sneek a notice on your door(probably because they don't want to take the time to deliver, maybe they have a date that night or something). To my amasement, they will have instructions on the box saying that it is ok to deliver to the apartment office if no one answers the door, but they ignore these instructions in black and write on the shipping label and write all over the notice saying "We are sorry we missed you, but if you sign this notice we will be happy to leave at your door or if you are not here again we will leave it at the apartment rental office".
The worst is when they ship something and leave my apartment number off of it. Instead of delivering to the apartment office and saying the apt # was left off and could they find the tennant, they just ship it back to whoever sent it to me AND MY PHONE NUMBER IS RIGHT ON THE LABEL!!!! They don't call the number saying "Oh, we have a package for you and it doesn't have the apartment number on it, what is your apartment number?"
Don't even get me started with refinancing issues and timely over night shipping that takes 3 weeks or packages arriving damaged like some 3rd country national played rugby with it or a Siberian Tiger used it for a chew toy..........
