Have you ever had a package you expected to come delivered somewhere else?

There is a lucky family in Texas that keeps getting books I order. The problem is that the site puts in my zip code 76611 next to Israel, and some idiot at the post office, then decides Israel must be a new city in Texas, and simly ships it to the intended zip code :( They don't even care that it's paid for international shipping.. Some day I 'll come to Texas to see how they are enjoying my books, LOL.

Never happened to me but I have a package now from FedEx. It's a HDTV. Hope that doesn't get lost!

I haven't had any problem with them personally but my family has. My family lives in a rural community and their mailboxes are at the bottom of the hill where they live. The FedEx driver has been putting their packages beside their mailboxes regardless of the weather. My sister runs a business out of her home and she was waiting for a $13000 check and the FedEx driver put it in her mailbox. She had already got her mail that day so she did not check in her mailbox. When she checked the status online it said delivered. The driver told her he delivered it to another route number. The package had originally been delivered on a Saturday so she did not check her mail again until Monday and that is when she located the package in her mailbox. When she contacted FedEx about this they did not see a problem with it until she pointed out that it is a federal violation for them to put it inside the mailbox.

It has happened way to often but it usually gets straigtened out and I hope to be more patient I find mapquest is often wrong

My dad recently had this same problem. He called Fed-Ex and they said his package was delivered but nobody ever came to the door. Seems to be an ongoing problem at Fed-Ex.

My family can't seem to remember where I live. I have had 3 people in my family send packages to my old address this year.. I moved over a year ago. I just found out today that my aunt sent my kids a $100 present, to my old apartment. Sigh.. I might actually have to drive over there to get it (well, she's saying I should. She lives on the other side of the country, so she can't really do much on her end).. it's been signed for, or so she says. Like the manager is going to go check to see if the people living there opened up a package that didn't belong to them?? And I'm just gonna show up and demand it? I don't know. I think I might have to hurt somebody. LOL

i have the same question... my boyfriend in sweden sends me letters, cards and packages through regular or registered mails. however, i am questioning the postal system of the philippines already. his first letter was delivered to my neighbor. okey, that's fine with me. what made me irritated was the letter was already have opened. the third letter was never delivered. the fourth one is a package and was delivered... it was registered. fifth, sixth, seventh were nowhere to be found. and when i went to the post office to inquire about my lost mails, i never got a clear answer. it's as if they are even happy that i am confused and annoyed with their system. i never recovered the mails anymore. and i told my boyfriend not to mail me much anymore since the philippines has this very questionable postal system... and i hate it so much!

I have never had a package delivered elsewhere and claimed to have been delivered to me, but I have had carriers put cards through my door stating that the parcel has been delivered at a certain address. This has never caused me any problems, although the potential does exist if a parcel is delivered to the address of someone that you are on poor terms with. Basically, the carriers are not interested in anything apart from getting rid of the package, which is a very poor attitude considering the service that they are supposed to be providing.

Yes I had a very important package coming from my Uncle and the delivery guy transposed the numbers in his mind and delivered it to someone up the street then that person didn't even look at the box cause they were leaving town on a trip. So they just stuffed it inside thier house. So we didn't get the package till a week later and the delivery company kept telling us it was delivered it was so frustrating. I kept telling them that I would think I would remember having recieved the box.

I haven't had mine delivered elsewhere yet. But UPS does deliver packages for someone on our street to our house all the time. They just leave the package too, so we havent had a chance to tell them. So once a week I have to go see the inpersonable neighbors who look at me like I tried to steal their stuff.

i have been through this kind of hell twice and the worst part was that one of the companies refused to attend to my complaint so finally i ha dto move to the court and made them pay through their nose for their misbehave.. they had to pay me Rs-5000 (110$) as the fine.

I have had it happen also. That is why I confirm with a live person the day the item is supposed to be at my dorr that they have the correct delivery address. I will look up the shipment online as well and if I see even the slightest thing wrong the first thing that I do is get on the phone and call someone. Even if my address has been cut into two lines I want to make sure that they are going to deliver it to the proper place. I once had a package that had my apartment number chopped off so it was not delivered. The error was the carriers fault not mine. It was time sensitive information too. I suggest that you always follow up whenever you have anything shipped.

NOpe I've never had someone else receive my package, but I know what a pain these delivery companies can be. I remember when I was waiting for an access code to get delivered to me so that I could start my online class. I ordered it, then they said it would show up the next week. I told the lady that I wasn't going to be home during the day, did it need to be signed for? No, she says, it doesn't. UPS left a note on my doorthe next week saying that they had a package, and they'd be back the next day. The next day, I call UPS, and ask them if I can come pick up the package. They tell me that it was sent back to the company because the driver said I don't live there. Hmmm. Just because I'm not home doesn't mean I don't live there, genius! I call the company back and they send it out again, Thank you FEDEX for making this work. UPS SUCKS

What happend to me, Fedex always call me and ask to come at some specific point to pick your package :( and in first time when i asked delivery boy to deliver it properly at my home you can't imagen he took it back and later when i called at office they said the delivery boy could not found your home address so it will be deliver by tomorrow now :( and then i went their office for picking... :(

I feel it is becoming a Big problem anymore, and no one really seems to think any differently of the issue. I know back when I was on Unemployment somehow one of my Checks got misplaced only to be delivered again like 3 months later. I had requested a replacement check though a lot earlier, so this ended up being a Duplicate check. I always Fret now when I know I am supposed to receive a Check from someone, that it will reach me OK. But a Cell Phone. This is rediculous, and what did the Company and FedX say when you contacted them? I should think FedX should be responsible for this Error, and reimburse you if this phone is never gotten to you.

I am myself trying to have patience! I am waiting on a package that should have been delivered on the 7th. I know its only the 12th but last time I checked it was in a city only 3 hours away since the 3rd. No other information is available. I've contacted the company I purchased the merchandise from (some of my childrens Christmas gifts)and they all say wait a bit longer. USPS says to wait to contact them again until the 19th. The company I bought the gifts from says they have to wait 30 days from date of purchase to do anything. What they will do I don't know. It's very frustrating because these are Christmas gifts and Christmas is coming up fast! I don't know where my items are, if they've been lost or misdelivered, I have no idea!

it didn't happen to me that often but i do know of some guys who had their mail or packages delivered somewhere else, i do not think all the blame should be with the delivery company, sometimes i've seen that some address are really hard to make out. if there is no confuion as such i do not think the delivery company would want the trouble to deliver it somewhere else.

i have had trouble with packages that come opened, and also have sticky tape on them, not sure really what to do but i know if i get one more, i will be calling someone for sure.

soory,but i never had that kind of trouble,,but i do hope you get you cell phone..did you try calling fed x.i would they can track it. an see were it was left off at

no never happened to me like this
