Where to begin...we ordered 4 outside chairs from JC Penney that came from their Reno, NV warehouse.
We were supposed to receive our freight by June 10. Friday June 15th, 2018 was our scheduled date with a 2-6 pm window. The driver arrived named Greg Tinsell (fake name, not sure why he lied). I am a 100% disabled Veteran. He did not know that, but could have guessed something. Their trucks are about 75 feet long and as I yelled to the driver about 80 feet from me to not drop the box on that curb, I'm disab led and wont be able to jockey it with or without my other half's help. He thought I was angry and told me to stop yelling or he would leave. I went down, slowly walking. By the time I got to him, he was angry, put out his chest to me with his fists clenched and told me he was leaving, closed the trailer door and left. I called in 15 times to the number to dispatch, 408-400-0751 and after 90 minutes of hold and run around, I was told I would get my delivery Monday June 18th. On Monday, I called to verify the time and a rude and hostile dispatcher told me to not yell at their drivers and since my delivery was not given a time schedule, it would be delivered on Tuesday June 19th. I was given the small package UPS number 800-pickups to complain. After speaking with the Philippine and China call centers, I was given a USA supervisor. That supervisor told me after I was on all the calls for over 2 hours that I had the wrong number. I was supposed to be speaking to UPS freight at 800-333-7400. After I explained everything for the 6th time, I was told a message would be sent to the freight center manager James Marquez. When he called me from 831-751-0486, he told me he called because I was supposed to apologize to him. I told him the whole story about how I was "f$%^ed (one word only) over and he told me that if I didn't stop swearing that he would end the call. He never addressed the issue, he defended his bully driver and told me if I was present when my delivery was made that his drivers would refuse to deliver since I frightened his 6 foot, 275 pound 30+ driver who delivers from a bad neighborhood to the most dangerous parts of San Jose (last part my words to describe him). He refused to take my complaint.
My take from this: UPS Freight is operated by street thugs and if you don't do exactly what say, they will hold your freight hostage, play games with you about just when they will get around to delivering and if you don't watch out, disabled or not, they may just assault you. Thank GOD the good ole days of thugs and gangsters running freight are still alive! read more
