I just received my last package a week ago...ALMOST THREE MONTHS LATER. I spent over $400 to ship my things across the country in a timely manner. I called at least 3-5 times every week trying to locate my packages because the original tracking numbers were bogus. The staff there didn't know where my packages were for weeks, until finally someone discovered them sitting at another facility. I spoke with Bill, the manager/owner and he never had answers for me. When I called and left messages or emails seeking new tracking numbers, my calls were never returned. Bill became annoyed and rude, at times, when I would call because he was "sick of dealing with this". Trust me dude, I was too. Now that I finally have all my belongings, I have inquired about a full refund as I certainly did not receive the service I paid for in the timely manner it was promised. Once again, I have yet to hear back from Bill. Worst customer service I have ever experienced. This place is a joke and Fed Ex will hear about how poorly customers are treated at a company they are affiliated with.

When my package was sent to the UPS "Fraud Department" due to a glitch in the UPS system (their computer issued 2 receipts for the same package: one for shipping the package and another for payment), Nick stalled for months. Even though the Fraud Dept told me they had the package and it was safe, that they just needed confirmation from the store manager, UPS eventually lost the package. Nick then told me UPS acknowledged that the loss was their fault and would issue a full refund for the contents of the package, even though the package was not insured. I didn't hear back from Nick for almost 2 months. When I stopped by the store, Nick told me that UPS would not issue a refund, and that he was in a big "battle" with the company about it. He refused to send me copies of his correspondence, or updates of any kind and said that this was for the "protection" of UPS. He then told me he was busy and it was a lot of work to enter all the info manually... so it's not clear that he ever did anything at all to get my package back or get a refund. When I told him that this had been a terrible experience, he told me that was my "opinion". When I said I had used UPS for years, but I didn't want to go through this again, he said I had "options". I asked what they are? Nick said I could "use FedEx or USPS"! This man should NOT be in a managerial position. I had used that store for years for shipping orders for our business, but I will never go back there again.

Damn I cannot believe I'm leaving my second 1 star review EVER and guess what -- it's for the SAME…read moreESTABLISHMENT!!!! STEER CLEAR from using this location, in fact, ANY UPS location for this holiday season (quite frankly, steer clear forever). Honest to god, I'm a very positive person so it pains me to have this much frustration towards anything, but holy hell. This store has been the root of my anger, stress and anxiety over the last 2 months. Long story short, they admittedly packaged my $800 tv (65") incorrectly and in result, delivered it to Texas completely destroyed. The best part? They're refusing to pay me back the value of the TV. OH WAIT -- I'm sorry, I think the best part has been this location completely ghosting my 25+ calls, 10+ voicemails, 10+ emails over the last 2 months. OH NO NO WAIT, I'm sorry. The best part might be me having to send my FATHER into the store to ask them to answer me since I'm now living halfway across the country. And they STILL had the audacity to ignore me. *Mind you, they were required to reach out to me with the claim's result 48hrs after it was processed -- they never did and instead just denied it -- so I quite literally had to open up 3 different complaints against this store desperately trying to have customer care help me while I have this giant smashed TV collecting dust in my tiny apartment* Here's the full story that's getting a lot of publicity Facebook (could have been avoided if they ever responded to me): I moved from Boston to Texas a couple months ago and shipped out a 65" TV (~$700 value) from my local UPS store. I was super nervous about shipping it halfway across the country and especially nearly shat myself when I was witnessing how careless the UPS worker was being with it (just to paint a picture: she attempted to place the TV SCREEN SIDE DOWN on the tiny metal scale to weigh it until I asked her to flip it over). Very IDGAF attitude, which is fine, but when I asked the worker if I could put insurance on it, or any extra protection, and she told me no. She proceeds to ring me up, charges me $286 to ship it out (almost shat myself again), handed me a paper to sign (spoiler alert: this is what f*cked me), and I go on my way. Fast forward a few weeks after I move, I unbox the giant package and see it's completely smashed. I tried getting in touch with the local UPS store - called countless times, left voicemails, emailed, sent my DAD to the store to ask them to respond to me, I TRIED EVERYTHING for a couple weeks - NO RESPONSE. Hell, I even sent in a Seargent in my town to talk with the owner - still didn't get back to me. I had opened a claim with customer care who told me it'd take 1-2 biz days for the local UPS store to get back to me with their decision to approve or deny it. Shocker - they never reached out. 2 more weeks went by, I kept calling customer care, they told me there's nothing they can do and they legally can't tell me what the claim's result is, only the local store can. (however, one rep did slip and tell me they denied the claim due to insufficient packaging) FINALLY, I got in touch with a great UPS representative who noted numerous red flags on the store's end: * packaged it for a 55" tv (10" too small) * packaged it for a 20lb item (it's 50lbs) * charged me an absurd amount to custom pack it WHEN THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE THE PROPER MATERIALS (the rep told me it's typically $50-$60, not $286) * *side note: you can tell by the lousy AF packaging in my photos that they had to ~get creative~ and tape two boxes together to be able to fit the TV inside (that they pretended was 10" smaller). I CANNOT.* The rep told me as long as I didn't sign a PSO form, this claim would certainly be passed and in return, I'd receive a check for the value of the TV along with the $286 I paid for shipping. She mentioned by signing the PSO form, you're refusing insurance/protection on the item if it's damaged from UPS. SADLY........turns out, that was the damn form I signed. I am livid beyond words. I keep replaying the moments in my head asking the UPS worker about protection and insurance and her telling me no.

I was returning FIOS equipment after canceling my cable service. Verizon had already charged me over $400 for not returning it on time and told me I'd get the money back once the equipment was scanned at any UPS location with a reference code added to the shipping label. I provided this code to the first employee, a young man, who insisted it wasn't necessary. I questioned him, but he was confident -- so I trusted him. After leaving the store, I immediately called Verizon, who confirmed the reference code was in fact necessary to avoid a long and complicated refund process. I went back inside, explained the situation to a different employee -- a young woman who seemed willing to help -- but she deferred to what appeared to be the store manager: a middle-aged woman who was instantly combative. I calmly explained the situation and the importance of correcting the label, but she cut me off, saying: "We can't help you -- it's final." Even when the original employee admitted I had given him the code, she doubled down, claiming Verizon's system had changed and it wasn't needed. I told her I had just spoken to Verizon and that without the code, I might not get my $480 back. Her response? "You need to leave the store. You're being disrespectful." I wasn't yelling. I wasn't being rude. I was exasperated -- and rightfully so -- but remained respectful. Meanwhile, she was condescending and dismissive from the moment I approached her. To make matters worse, I had witnessed her speaking rudely to another customer earlier -- and gave her the benefit of the doubt. Now I believe she is the problem. This experience was completely unacceptable, and it may very well cost me a significant amount of money. I won't be returning to this location, and I caution others to avoid it as well -- especially if you expect basic professionalism or competent customer service.
