      I placed an order with a third part online retailer on September 19th 2022. MY order was shipped on September 20th 2022. It was initially supposed to arrive on 9/24/2022. My package arrived at their ****** ********* ** facility on 9/23/2022 and has not moved since. I attempted to call their Customer service line but there is no one I can speak to that will check on things for me.

      After looking into some things I saw that many other people have has the same issue with their package sitting at the facility not moving for weeks.

      I just want my package to be delivered in a timely manner.

      I returned an *phone** ****** at my local **** to send back to *** on July 13, 2022 at 10:02am tracking number **********************. They reflect it was picked up by shipping agent on July 15,2022 at 8:45am. The **** rep explained that they have experienced a lot of issues with the agent Newgistics and they are sure they are stealing the devices. The **** rep explained that all issues will have to go through this company but I have called the 800 number all day with no resolve. The tracking number through their tracking is ****************************** and it only reflects the pickup information only. I am being charged by *** for this device and I need answers from Newgistics. They have so many previous complaints online where this issue is happening consistently and they are getting away with theft. I did my part by dropping it off at the **** and I need answers. I don't want any bogus excuses but need this resolved.

      I made a purchase from a company in ***** on August 25, 2022. They shipped the item on August 26, 2022. I was given two tracking numbers. The first tracking # ********************************** and the second tracking # ************************** Everything went fine and the package cleared customs. On September 8, 2022 the package left the PB facility in ********* **. And then left ******* ** on September 10, 2022. And then in ******** ** yesterday, September 12, 2022. The tracking says that it is due to be delivered today by 6 pm. I don't see how that is going to happen since it left ******* last night and there has been no update. Since this is a ground service I can tell you that ******* is a less than 6 hour drive to my location in *** Based on all the complaints I have read, I can guess that my package will not be here anytime soon. Considering how long it is taking to get to my city from ******* I will assume that my package is more than likely heading to another state further away from *** I just want to know where my package is and when I will receive it.

      Within the tracking
      details that were provided it clearly states, “Estimated Delivery – Tuesday,
      September 13 by 6:00pm” That date is only an estimate date not an exact

      I brought a package to to our local post office on May 2th and it was to be sent to ****. The agent picked up the package and there's been no scans since June 30th 2022. **** also confirmed they never received the unit back.
      The post office just recently told me it's out of there hands and to file a complaint against the agent. I was also told by USPS they believe the package was stolen.
      It's a very high priced item as well. Someone needs to be responsible for my lost package and to pay for it. It's a hotspot by ******* ********* ****** ***

      I ordered items from **** * **** ***** which they utilize Pitney Bowes to ship the items. My items have stated departed facility in ************ ** since 03 Aug 2022 and I still have yet to receive the package. It is impossible to contact Pitney Bowes for a resolution as they do not speak to individuals only companies. I attempted to file a complaint on Pitney Bowes website, but I was informed to create an account. I can't create an account because I do not have an account with them as I would NEVER utilize them to ship items for me. It's frustrating because it's $200 worth of stuff and Pitney Bowes has a reputation of NOT delivering packages. Accountility need to be taken.

      Their ******* ** distribution center is a disaster. Either through management, process or employee negligence. A simple ****** search quickly confirms my suspicions. All but one review is extremely negative, going into detail about packages getting stuck there for months on end, or lost. I had a package a year ago get stuck there for 4 months, and should of submitted a complaint then. Im submitting a complaint now in the hopes that some one somewhere with the ability to improve the facility sees this.

      My package arrived to their warehouse that is located an hour away from me driving distance. It sat there for 2 days before saying "Departed facility to usps" It has been 2 weeks since then and package has not updated at all. I've tried to reach out to them and only way I found was through phone I called and just got an automated message for tracking info which was no help. I don't understand how they can either lose my package or falsely scan my package saying it's in transit and just sit at the warehouse instead. My next step if I'm unable to get help from BBB will be to drive down there and demand to speak with someone and have them hand me my package from there.

      ******** ****** ************, a small business, decided last fall to discontinue using Pitney Bowes for leasing our postage meter and purchasing postage for it. We were told by our local rep when our lease expired, paid the balance on the current quarter, wrote Pitney Bowes that we were discontinuing their service, and mailed the postage meter back to them, returned signed receipt from Pitney Bowes, on December 23, 2021.

      Since then, we have received invoices, emails (no reply possible), texts and letters continuing to bill us for services that do not exist, as THEY have the machine and we have not been using Pitney Bowes for postage or their meter since December, 2021. They RARELY answer the phone or return our calls after leaving a message; we have tried seven different numbers, and we have been hung up on when we ask to speak to a customer service representative's supervisor. Our local rep says it is out of his hands. In July, one person at Pitney Bowes finally said it was resolved and we would not receive any more harassing emails, but we have received two more, threatening to send us to colllections! My credit has gone down 32 points now.
