Fedex please give me an invoice so i can pay you!

I was told to create an an account online so i could be able to ship my international package. I did this, got a quote online and decided to go with Fedex since it offered me a better rate- discount for using an account. I have been trying to get an invoice so i can pay Fedex for more than a week now and they keep giving me the run around. First i was told that it would take 30 days for my account to load in the system, but if i can use the account doesnt it mean its in the system?? One consultant told me that since i am an individual i need to go to their depot and make a cash payment. Like really Fedex, why do you think i chose to create an online account and have my package collected? Another one told me i should wait for 4-6 weeks to get an invoice they cant 'pull it' yet. Come on guys, i am asking to pay you, not the other way round. What business doesnt want its customers to pay? I am tired of calling your customer service and being told a different thing each time. When the we lose the call connection during a call, the agents do not even bother to call me back. I have to call again, start afresh with a new agent and be told a different story. I hate owing..so let me pay you Fedex and get this over with please.

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 this is in order.

Someone from Fedex phoned me to say they will look into this and call me back, that was on the 10th, but they never called me back. Now i receive an invoice with an amount thats R600 more than the initial quote. Further more the parcel has still not been delivered a week after customs and clearance fees were paid. I was told initially they couldnt invoice me until the parcel was delivered. My waybill and tracking history shows a 3kg parcel, the invoice is showing a heavier parcel. Someone please investigate this.

We have reached out to our finance department for assistance..Invoices for international shipments are manage by an automated system which an outsourced company  manages, Also payment for the invoice will  go off the  Credit Card once the invoice is generated.

Kind regards
