I can't complain about Fed-Ex. They have been showing up at my place a couple times a week lately.
Only complaint I have with any company is USPS. Not for packages, but I have lost an enormous amount of regular mail this last year.
I'm to the point with them, if its important, it goes with tracking.

Re: Fed Ex Terrible Service
Tracking is not a sure thing with USPS either. I sent out a package the other day with tracking. Delivery time was a lot shorter than I had expected. The day it was listed to be delivered I went to track the package to see if it was on schedule and I got a message that the number wasn't any good. I had copied and pasted the number from the email I sent. That didn't work, I typed in the number and double checked it, still came up as a bad number. Only upside is that I did get a confirmation email from the person I sent it to that it got there on time and on the day they said it would. I don't think in this day and mess anything is much of a guarantee.

Re: Fed Ex Terrible Service
My half case was delivered early Saturday morning, and it's the first time I ever had to sign for powder. Our Fedex and UPS, even USPS here is really good.
I'm really glad that Fedex started requiring a 'signature-required' delivery; it prevents a delivery mishap to a neighbor.

Re: Fed Ex Terrible Service
In case you did not know, there are two Fed Ex's. Fed Ex ground is a trucking service and handles the bigger stuff. Fed Ex Express is the rapid delivery service for smaller and overnight packages. Some time ago I was expecting a Fed EX delivery and it did not show. I called the Fed Ex office and was told that the tracking number was a ground number and to call the ground facility. I called them and got the info I was looking for. They apparently don't keep track of each other.
