      I am rejecting this response because: They haven't changed the way they conduct business. They will continue use the same frustrating method and give people a hardtack and keep making people waist their time. The simple fact that you get through your AI phone system to speak to someone live is the most shady business practice.

      On 5/5/24, I placed an order on the ** website for a new refrigerator with a delivery date of 5/13/24. On Friday, 5/10/24, I received an automated call from ************ notifying me the delivery time was 3 - 7pm and prep instructions. On 5/13, I called at 6:20pm to check status, told they were running a little late and was on stop 4, I was stop 6. I waited until 10pm before going to bed and they still did not deliver. Woke up to a missed call and a text from ***** stating he was the driver and would be here to deliver at 11:50pm! He did not come, or my cameras would have shown it. Called, waited 25 min on hold this morning, and ***** advised the earliest she could reschedule was for Thursday, no time window available. After further discussion, she said she would escalate to the warehouse and see if they can add me for tomorrow. Not once was there an apology for the inconvenience, no communication, and was arguing as to if I actually missed the middle of the night communication. This company's practices are absolutely unacceptable. ** Order #: *********** Tracking #: ******** Shipment #: **********

      I ordered something online and my package arrived at there carrier facility on March 27th. It is now April 25th and I still have yet to receive my package. The first time I called, they said it was delayed and would arrive the following week, which is fine because I know things happen. It didn't show up again, so again I call but this time they said it might take another week. Another week goes by, still no package. I call them again, and now they are telling me that they only come to my area once a month because it's too far too drive, (it's only 4 hours from where I live, that's less than a day of driving). They said someone would get ahold of me to schedule the delivery. ANOTHER week goes by and I hear nothing, So I call yet AGAIN, and now they've told me they might not show up until they see a reason to actually make the trip. So I asked them, "the last time you spoke to me you said you deliver once a month, so why have you not come?" since that seemed like a good enough reason to me. Their answer was, "we were already in your area on April 4th and we didn't receive your package until then." They received my package on March 27th, so they are continuing to lie to me. I spent 800 dollars just to be lied to on a weekly basis because a company refuses to do their job. I was told that I was required to be home to sign for the delivery, so I have been rearranging my schedule to stay in town to make sure I can accommodate for them. So this has been incredibly frustrating and inconvenient trying to bend over backwards for a company who seems to care less. I have been respectful and have definitely been more than patient. They either need to send me my package or send me my 800 dollars I spent on it with an apology note attached to it.

      Hello,

            We apologize for the lengthy delay with your order being scheduled and the delivery being completed.  Our local terminal advised they do expect to have a delivery route in your area next week and will be contacting you next week to confirm a delivery date and time window for your order.  When we spoke to them they were still working on the route so they could not provide us with more detailed information but confirmed you will receive a call from the next week regarding scheduling.

      Hello,

             We are not able to locate any orders in our system for this customer  and based on their first statement it seems like the services were performed by a different provider.  We are a final mile logistics company that handles the delivery of heavy and bulky freight to the final customer but our services do not include appliance installation.  Based on the information the customer has provided it seems this service was performed by a different company as again we do not offer or perform appliance installation for any customer's.

      Hello,

           We apologize based on the response this may be with a different division of Hub Group but unfortunately, we in Final Mile do not have access to these orders or any of the order details or service information.  It seems the customer does have communication from the correct division of Hub Group and their claims department and they would need to communicate with that group for further assistance moving forward.

      Purchased a partial patio layout from HD. Had confirmation from NSD which is the last mile delivery for Hub Group. Waited at home for the delivery `11am to 3pm on a Saturday. Nothing. No text, no phone call no nothing except on their tracking it showed ******** attempted (NOPE) customer rescheduled (NOPE) and then crickets. I called their office and was told we do not know anything until Monday and it will be update. Well as you can probably guess that has not happened either.Spoke with HD on Saturday they called NSD and were hung up on three times. Whoosh goes their customer service. HD asked me to wait until today for delivery which I knew was going to be a huge cluster fk because that was not going to happen. During the weekend I checked out this company, they have gobs of complaints that are not settled, lies strewn about like papers about delivery, lost items and even deliveries made to customers, and they were not as video footage shows. I want to make sure that this company parent company Hub Group knows what a total s**** up their Last Mile is. How they even have contracts with ********** and Amazon is beyond me since I know a company has to be Avetta Compliant to serve Amazon and this company is not even following any type of ethical representation .I don't even want to deal with them as it seems they just run you around and I don't have time for their stories. Someone needs to file a class action suit on them.

      I have called and emailed and chatted over 8 times to schedule the delivery of my 3 piece couch and ottoman No response. My order was supposed to be delivered BY today at the latest and it hasn't even been scheduled! I'm paying financing on couches sitting in their warehouse that they won't deliver. Literally 14 min from my house. They won't respond to ************* the initial place I bought the couches .

      I purchased furniture 12/17/2023 from *************. My understanding was that the furniture was to arrive at the delivery terminal January 25-February 1st, 2024. It arrived January 29th, docked, at 3:44PM. I know this because I have been making attempts to contact ************* to find the furniture and through my own efforts, tracked down who they used to delivery the furniture, which is your company, the Hub Group. I understand there is some ownership transition very recently but I don't really care about that. My issue lies in the fact that for almost a month now, almost $5000 worth of my money is sitting in a warehouse awaiting delivery to my home. Whether it is failure on your company's part or the seller's part to provide instruction on what to do next with it, it is irrelevant to me. On 2/23/24, a HUB representative contacted me over the phone and indicated to me that someone would be contacting me today, 2/26/24 via phone, text or email to arrange delivery of my merchandise. This did not occur. There is no legitimate excuse for failure to communicate with a customer regarding delivery. Someone within your organization is failing to provide logistical support and that is trickling down to the customer. This looks bad all the way around. I would like someone to remedy this problem and arrange to have my merchandise delivered immediately or provide a logical explanation as to why I have almost $5000 sitting in a warehouse collecting dust.

      ******* is the last mile carrier for a couch I bought. The product arrived in ******** **** (3 hours from my home) on January 25, ****. The delivery on Amazon AND on their tracking was February 1, ****. Took the day off and stayed home for delivery. Never came. Attempted to call their company -- never answered phone. In the automated attendent so long it said someone would call and it hung up. Does not respond to customer service chat. Contacted Amazon (who I purchased the couch through) They reached out and I was told I would hear from them in a day or two. Five days later - had to reach out to Amazon again. Still waiting for delivery information - still not response to chats or phones. They claimed to Amazon it was a weather issue. Again - I live three hours away and know that weather has not delayed deliveries for 10 days since they have the item or not.
