Unresolved Issues: UPS and Package Theft
In recent years, a persistent issue has been plaguing UPS customers: theft. This concern isn’t just anecdotal, it’s a reality for many who’ve trusted the delivery service with their valuable items. An incident that’s still relevant today took place a few years when a UPS employee was caught red-handed on video pilfering an iPad. Despite the ‘s dismissal of the incident as a one-off, there’s a growing number of people who’ve had similar experiences. This post delves into one such case, and the frustrating aftermath that ensued.
A Personal Encounter with UPS Theft
Once upon a time, there was an unfortunate experience with UPS, involving the mailing of valuable items from Atlanta to Los Angeles. The packages, which were new, taped, and sealed properly, were found tampered with en route to LA, with 90% of the valuable items missing. The remaining items were discovered in a poorly taped, raggedy box, leading to a frustrating interaction with UPS customer service that was largely unhelpful.
Unresolved Issues and Repeated Incidents
It didn’t end there. More boxes that were in transit were also opened and valuables were stolen. The company, instead of investigating, gave the standard run-, making it virtually impossible to submit an insurance claim. It’s an unfortunate reality that this isn’t an isolated incident, but a recurring problem that affects countless people.
A Call to Action
The takeaway here is simple, yet crucial: Think twice before you decide to use UPS for mailing valuables. Perhaps consider alternatives like Greyhound, where the boxes are always visible by many people instead of hidden in the ” target=”_blank”> like UPS.
Finally, let’s not forget the video evidence of the theft that was posted on YouTube, which you can view below. It serves as a stark reminder of the issues at hand.
