    Default UPS or Fedex

    Do you use UPS or Fedex?


    Why not UPS Field?



    Obviously, I work for one of those companies.

    I use FedEx for things that need fast and safe delivery
    I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die
    of natural causes.

    In my experience, both are fast and reliable. UPs has the better customer service though from my experiences. FedEx charges more. I prefer UPS

    I would always use UPS until I heard about that guy that got stranded on a deserted island when his fed ex plane crashed, and even after being stranded for like 10 years, he still delivered the packages... I'm all about Fed Ex now...
    Another post down the drain...

    Nice. I prefer Fedex honestly. I think this thread has been posted in the past.

    sorry if this has been posted before.

    I would never bash Fedex, they do a great job. I just think we do it better and provide the best value

    One of my accounts asks me everytime i see him when the UPS movie is coming out.

    I work for a UPS store in the summers and around Christmas. Its amazing how many people do not know that UPS offers Next Day delivery or that Fed Ex has a ground service.

    well FedEx just lost some points from me just now....

    I waiting the entire day for a package and the FedEx guy didnt even bother ringing the door bell...

    He just left my package by my garage door. I mean i have a long drive way so he had to entire drive his truck in or walk about 40 yards to reach my garage. My freakin' front door is like only 5 yards away from the garage and i guess he was too lazy to go 5 yards to ring my bell....

    what a bum...

    It depends on the person, because the UPS guy does this to me all the time, but my Fedex guy always rings the bell.

    I have a question. Why does UPS use such long drawn out tracking numbers?

    Well, the 1z (first two digits) recognize it is a UPS package tracking number, the next six number are the person that shipped the package's UPS account number, and the last 12 digits are so long because we ship 14 million packages a day.
