RE: UPS strikes again
UPS= [:'(]
I too have had several negative encounters with UPS so this is of no surprise to me at all!!.Just in the last 2 years I have had 1 jet & 2 package for my business get either destroyed or badly damaged.Everytime UPS tries to deny it being their fault or responsibilty.On the jet kit(TGA F15) I had to spend literally 2 weeks on the phone & in person at the local UPS plant to rectify them paying on the claim.They swore up & down that the jet was not sufficently packed.For cris sake there was enough peanut foam in the box to fill a king size bed! I told them that all the packing in the world wont help if your employees dont have enough common sense to be careful & not drive a forklift thru the side of the box!! I expressed to the head manager that it doesnt take a rocket scientist to clearly see that there is a gapping 8 inch hole in the box from what appeared to be a forklift.Well all the ranting & time spent still didnt go anywhere, so to make a long story short 2 out of the 3 damage claims I had to file required getting my lawyer involved.It is amazing as all hell how quickly a check appears in yuor mailbox when you threaten lawyers & wavy 10 on your side against them.
I no longer use UPS for anything -personally or with my business.They are awful to put it mildly!! I use fed ex,post office & dhl/airborne express for everything now with great results.I havent had a single problem at all with these guys.If UPS does not straighten their act they are gonna start losing accounts left & right.They lost my acct and I typical get 5-10 deliveries a week with my business,in addition I know of atleast 10 people -customers & friends whom have stopped using UPS as well cause of very similar problems as mine .Fed ex,US postal & dhl all the way baby
