FEDEX INCOMPETENCE

Comfit is a company that imports External Breast Prostheses and Post Mastectomy bras for breast cancer patients who has lost their breasts to breast cancer.

We import these products from Ireland.

Last year we decided , for the first time, to use Fedex as a Import agent and our shipment landed in South Africa on the 8th December 2020. We did get a quote from Fedex which was correct and therefore we accepted, but when the shipment came into the country FEDEX MADE A MISTAKE ON THE PAPERWORK AND DID NOT PUT THE DUTIES ON although it was correct on their original quote.

On our side, all the paperwork was correct, all the information that should be on the commercial invoices are on the invoices. We have sent the documentation 12 times to 7 different personnel at Fedex, jumped through all the hoops, yet it has been 7 weeks now and we still have not received our shipment and the only answer we get from Fedex when we query this, is that they are monitoring Customs.

Thus far we have communicated with the the following people at Fedex: Leigh Taylor, Nadia Fray, Shannen McPherson, Rosslyn Sulliman, Ingrid Rossouw, Swikelani Baloyi and Gloria Mabunda, but to no avail.

FEDEX IS THE WORST IMPORT/EXPORT COMPANY EVER!!! THE LEVEL OF INCOMPETENCE AT FEDEX IS MIND BOGGLING!!!!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to write about the experience that you have had with FedEx. Please allow us a short while to investigate the circumstances around this issue.  A member of our management team will make contact with you directly to resolve this as soon as possible. I trust that this is in order.

I did get an answer from Shannen McPherson a while ago. And I quote: "Kindly please note that this is a multiple piece shipment of 2 pieces and only 1 part entered the country and the other has not yet arrived. there is a delay in our international hubs due to Covid, will keep you updated"
WHAT *****NCE IS THIS!! THE TOTAL SHIPMENT WEIGHS 21KG AND THERE ARE TWO BOXES.
IN OTHER WORD A SMALL SHIPMENT. HOW IS COVID RESPONSEBLE FOR THIS!!!
ALSO WE HAVE BEEN **** TO FOR WEEKS AS WE WERE INFORMED VIA E-MAIL THAT THE SHIPMENT WAS IN THE COUNTRY BUT WAS DETAINED BY CUSTOMS.
INCOMPETENCE!!!! INCOMPETENCE!!!!!!!
