Title: UPS - listen/read this story Post by: FOXSSLOTS1 on October 16, 2009, 04:01:51 PM I had a shipment get LOST (25 x 25 x 25 box) insured - signature required - nothing new here - right? Well here is how it gets interesting - after getting the substantiating documents (A PAYPAL INVOICE - amount of the item - the SHIPPING and HANDLING) - guess what??? UPS wants me to tell them all about the handling (the box and the packing)!!!! Now I have to submit an invoice WITH RECEIPTS for the BOX - the STYROFOAM sheets - the BUBBLE WRAP - THE TAPE!!! I charged the guy $20.00 (1 inch strofoam sheets). They think I have all my shipping supplies inventoried - good thing I didn't tell them I used my computer to print a label (they would want to know where I bought the computer and the INK .. I I have finally made up my mind - FEDEX here I come - not only that - I am mailing ALL my vendors - ship anyway but UPS - UPS shipments will be refused.

Title: Re: UPS - listen/read this story Post by: FOXSSLOTS1 on October 17, 2009, 07:35:19 PM most likely not - but how many horror stories have you heard about UPS?
Title: Re: UPS - listen/read this story Post by: a69mopar on October 17, 2009, 08:15:47 PM Dan #2 I knew you guys would get that one right away.I prefer fedex, although the border fees are about the same. U.P.S. ticked me off before by billing me for a shipment about 10 weeks after I got it. An ebay seller sent it U.P.S. even though I requested U.S.P.S., was quoted U.S.P.S. and paid for that, they probably saved a few dollars, but it cost me a lot. i left them positive feedback after a few weeks, since I hadn't been billed yet from U.P.S. and didn't think I would be. You Live, you pay, you learn... Thanks, Wayne Title: Re: UPS - listen/read this story Post by: stayouttadabunker on October 17, 2009, 08:21:28 PM 10 weeks? Isn't there a statute of limitations on that?
That's ridiculously late... You should have told them you paid it already...they would of been scrambling :138- |
