It must just depend on location because for me UPS always delivers by 10am for my livestock ordered online. FexEx is super bad in my experience. They never deliver before 3pm for me which just means the package is sitting in a truck for a heck of a long time.

Compared to the other guys UPS seems to have the most infuriating policies. It's as though they got a room full of autistic lawyers to try and limit their liability through the most frustrating sets of rules possible.

PayPal kept messing up my shipping address for a while after I moved. I'd put in the right address with the order, pay with PayPal, and have my address over-ridden by whatever paypal decided it was that week. For a while, that was the correct street address, but my old postal code, which I didn't notice until after ordering from three separate websites.

Canada post and fedex - no problem. They fixed it with one phone call. UPS treated me like a criminal, refused to even speak to me about it, and shipped my package back to the US because the store I bought it from didn't get back to them fast enough.

I go out of my way to avoid UPS. Sadly, it's the only option for too many vendors.

Well I just received a coral shipment thru UPS on time even they said that it was delayed for weather. The only issue I have with this shipment is that I have someone at home to receive it while I was at work. What did UPS do? they dropped it on my door step without ringging the bell or anything. If I wasn't on the look out for my email I wouldn't have known that it was delivered and would have sat in the cold for hours before I went home. I had to call home and ask for them to look outside to pick it up.
