I signed up with Parcel Pending in May of 2021 when I moved to my current apartment complex, as I was unsure about the safety of any packages that would get delivered. Shortly upon moving in, I realized that my neighborhood is reasonably safe and I have no issues getting packages delivered to my door, so I attempted to close my account. I have tried the app, the website on mobile, the website on a desktop, I have tried calling the support number several times with no answer, and I am frankly tired of packages getting delivered to a locker that I do not want to use. I NEED this account closed as soon as possible, and if possible, without any contact to me, though if it is required I will gladly help the process along. I just want it closed out.Business Response

This company feels like a scam. Their customer service is useless. They take zero responsibility and just blame the building.The lockers are useless because most of the drivers are refuse to use them. It's impossible to delete your account. I've tried to reset my password over a dozen times and there has been no password reset email from Parcel Pending. I want my account deleted so I can be done with company.Business Response

Parcel access codes have not worked 4+ times. Even though most packages are able to be accessed on time, it is unacceptable to deny access for multiple days to items that a customer has paid for. I have paid expedited shipping and have been out that money because of this company and being unable to access my packages within the paid time. This company has denied access to packaged until the apartment complex can get a key and open it. Despite the number of times I have called their customer service, they have not been able to resolve the issue. I need my packages outside of apartment business hours, the whole selling point of having the mandatory lockers. Yet, this company states that the package has been picked up on their application despite the access code not actually opening a locker. In addition to this, their customer service agents are clearly frustrated because they do not have the tools to absolve complaints. The complex pays to use this service but the company misrepresents their service and requires the complex to fix their issues. Why do they refuse to send technicians unless the apartment complex requests them despite their consumers reporting clear issues? They are frequently adding unnecessary workload onto the employees at the complex and forcing them to be responsible for the failures of this company. In addition to this, I have found other packages when using my access code multiple times. This represents a safety concern, going directly against their selling point. Both times this has happened I have left the package with the complex. And, they have once shifted blame onto me for the package of another resident because they had once again sent an incorrect access code in which the box opened to reveal no packages (insinuating that there was the package of another resident when there was not) while my package was sitting in an already opened, unlocked locker unsecured. They completely fail at what they represent their business as to consumers.Business Response

We understand your frustration. We are the manufacture of the lockers but they are purchased and owned by the property management company that purchases them from us for their residents. We provide technical support for the lockers under a contract with the property management company. There are several different tech support contracts offered. The contact agreement that your leasing office/property management signed stating before we can provide tech support or open a locker we must send the resident to the leasing office first. The leasing office wants the opportunity to open the locker manually before they are willing to pay for a tech fee to come on site and look at the problem. The leasing office and/or property management company sets the annual fee amount as well as the daily fee amount for not picking the package up in a timely manner. We can assist with code issues and mis deliverers, however the ************** sets the amount of what we can do per their contact. I hope this information helps to understand the process better.Initial Complaint

Charged a $10 "registration" fee, after I added my credit card. Never asked my permission to charge me.Their website forces you to keep a credit card "on file", which means I no long control who has access to my credit card information.Stay away from these shysters.Charges that you never agree to should never be allowed.Business Response

Hello Mr. ******************* do apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced with the registration process of the locker system. The property management company owns the lockers at your property. The property management company sets the registration fee and daily holding fees. We collect the fees for them and we submit the fees we collected for the month back to the property management company. If you have any questions regarding the registration fee and/or daily fees, please reach out to the property manager as they set the fee amounts as well as send out the pre-registration links to set up the service. I have submitted a $10.00 refund request and a $3 fee refund request that is on your account however, the property manager will have to approve the refund. Thank you. **** BishopInitial Complaint

I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding Parcel Pending by ******** **************** based in ******, **********, for failing to provide access to a locker containing my package.On November 25th, I received a package delivery and an access code for retrieval. However, the code did not open the locker. That evening, I contacted Parcel Pending and spoke with a representative, who attempted to unlock the locker remotely without success. I was instructed to follow up with my apartment complex.On November 26th, my apartment complex informed me they had requested a technician to resolve the issue. I contacted Parcel Pending again later that evening, but the locker still did not open.I made two additional calls to Parcel Pending on December 2nd and December 6th. Each time, I was told a technician would be dispatched, but no time frame was provided, and the representatives gave little information about how or when the issue would be resolved. I also spoke with my apartment complex in person on December 6th, and they confirmed they had not received any updates from Parcel Pending regarding when a technician would arrive. My complex stated they had made several attempts to contact Parcel Pending but received no response. I currently have an open case/file number with ************************* date, my package remains inaccessible, which has caused significant inconvenience. I am also concerned this may constitute illegal withholding of mail.Business Response

When I companied, they told me that it is not their problem. They refused to take any action.I am not comfortable that why I should pay for something that does not belong to me.Business Response
