I am expecting some packages today and the tracking says out for delivery. It's now 9:10 PM and UPS delivered packages next door and across the street but not here. Don't play games with me UPS!
Side note: UPS has been making deliveries quite later in the evening (probably due to the upcoming holiday). What about in your area? Usually it was latest 8PM, but now I'm getting deliveries latest at 9PM.

It has been quite late. Today was 8:30PM, still late. I would like no later than 7PM that is a reasonable time latest!

@LadyDuck 7Am is early! But I think 8AM to 7PM would be reasonable. Last time at 9PM they didnt even ring the doorbell. If I wasn't downstairs I would have never known.

@infatuatedbby It's also for safety reason that here late deliveries are not allowed. They can deliver from 7 am to 7 pm.

I have that problem with FedEx, but not UPS. When I receive packages from UPS, they are usually waiting at my door when I get home from work. So, that means the UPS guy is getting them to me before 6PM each day. So far, no late deliveries from UPS, although that may change when it gets closer to Christmas. But then again, maybe not...I live in a gated community, and during the weekdays the gates are open, but at 6PM each night they close, so UPS would have a tougher time getting in after 6PM.

I get more problems with USPS.
This was the first time I had a problem with UPS (besides another incident in the past). But my packages ended up arriving today! Actually two of mine did and my fiancé was waiting for his as well with UPS and it didn't come the same time. 15 minutes later, a different UPS truck came and his was on that one. Lol.
I read on the news UPS is running late / delayed due to Cyber Monday orders still rolling out.
That's nice to live in a gated community. :)

@infatuatedbby I thought of you today when I got home from work and found a UPS package by my door. I had ordered a product from Amazon, and the UPS tracking number said it was scheduled to be delivered on December 13th, but it arrived today!!! This is why I love UPS (and hate FedEx)

A friend of ours had me be his look out for a package he was expecting. He had to go out of town so I had eyes on his porch. I would look down the street and even walk several times to his porch just to keep an eye on things. Nothing showed up and an Email to the effect that the package had already been delivered 2 days ago, made him anxious and he called and asked if I was watching his porch 2 days ago and I said, Yes, three different times. Later on he contacted them and they said the package actually had not yet been delivered and the Email notification was a mistake and it might be several MORE days before the package will arrive. Still waiting and wondering.

OH MY GOSH!
How long is your friend out of town for? That is so annoying right? Waiting and waiting and the package has yet to come. And in your case, says delivered when really it has not been!
I hope it comes soon.

I've shipped a heavy duffle bag from Wyoming to Colorado with UPS. I had no problems. Shipped my bike FedEx, though.

FedEx is pretty pricey,? :)
I had no choice, its the company paid via UPS. But UPS is backed up from cyber monday orders. =P

Oh no, sorry to hear that. I think I've read quite a few discussions about people having issues with delivery lately. 9pm is quite late for delivery. We don't get deliveries after 6pm usually.

Yes, 9PM was quite late. I just saw on the news this particular company is delayed a little because of Cyber Monday orders. Today they delivered at 8:30 PM, still rather late in my opinion.

I haven't had anything delivered that late this year, but I have in the past during the holiday season. You would think that if they delivered packages to your neighbors, though, they could have delivered yours at the same time...

I guess maybe I have to wait until tomorrow. Originally thought the deliver person might have delivered to the wrong house because it's happened before. The way the house address is laid out, it can get confusing.
But the tracking didn't update so probably delayed a day! And you're right you'd think they delivered next door and across the street, that I'd get my package too!

well, the delivers usually call us firstly when they are going to deliver the products, thus, normally, they won't put the wrong place, otherwise, we will call them when something wrong.
