How about deliver your package to the wrong address after you've spent an hour on the phone with them trying to get them to correct the shipping information.

Fuck UPS, I'm sticking with FedEx from now on.

Right now there's a $90 package sitting outside my old home with no one to pick it up because apparently it takes 6+ hours for new information to transmit through this craaaaaaaaaaazy new internets.

Thankfully Amazon is the greatest company ever and is overnighting a new order.

P.S. colds fucking suckasdfa

make sure when you get the new one you tell everyone how much you appreciate amazon, and then refuse to send back the old one and try to sell it

that could work as long as your old home isn't halfway across the country

One bad experience with UPS and you are going to severely limit your options in the future? I'd understand if they were just sucking generally, but this is a weakness on their part that will no longer apply to you. From now on you won't be changing your address at the last minute/hour/day.

Give correct shipping info in the first place and this won't happen?

Not really UPSs fault imo.

It's not Jibba's 'fault' if he gave them notice, per say, but it's just like... you should avoid putting them in a spot where they have to make changes at the last minute. A disaster waiting to happen.

Actually I asked and Amazon said they'd charge the lost package to UPS. So it's a win either way.

Amazon makes money, I get my stuff, UPS loses money.

I actually didn't have a choice. I called them a day and a half earlier and tried to get it changed then, and UPS told me I couldn't request a change until it had already reached the local delivery center and they couldn't even leave a note for it. The entire process was asanine. So then I call 8AM the next morning once it made it to the local center and I told them what needed to be done, and then 6 hours later they dropped it off. You can't even cite security concerns because there's nothing in place to stop fake identities.

And no, this isn't the first time UPS has misdelivered. It's become pretty regular that they'll say "address doesn't exist" when I ship to my sister in NYC. USPS seems to find it though.

I just shipped out a big package of stuff that's due on October first. I hope UPS doesn't mess up my order.

well the drivers and the trucks leave the facility at 8:30 roughly so calling them at 8 doesn't help much though. Poor customer service on their parts I suppose.

Yeah, and I mean in the year 2008 there's no way for the UPS center to know what their drivers are doing or communicate with them, right?

Look, it's not like they're sending drivers out with a paper list to deliver things. The reason they're able to tell you the EXACT time a package has been delivered is because there's a constant connection between the drivers and the station's computer system. Drivers are given handheld computers specifically for that reason. My guess is the person at the tracking station (who even called me to confirm) didn't do her job and add the note.

Actually youd be surprised, drivers dont usually know what goes in their truck unless theyve been told. We move things back and forth before they leave everyday depending on the volume of each truck.
