Iphone 6+ Stolen by Fedex Driver

Thanks stinks!

Remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Keep hounding them relentlessly until you get fair compensation.

 

I hope that under 1K phone will last and put money on his table as his paychecks there may be numbered.

 

By getting the refund, you have been made whole again. Yes it sucks you had to reorder the phone and now have to wait all over again. Neither Verizon nor FedEx owes you anything except your money back, which you have gotten. If they do decide to do more, good for them. Otherwise, chalk this up to experience and move on.

 

That's what I thought too.. be it 1, 2 or ... 8K..

 

How do you know the Fedex Driver stole it?

 

It sucks that you have to wait another month, but that doesn't seem to warrant getting $750 to $950 in compensation from FedEx.

If I were you, I'd cancel the new order with Verizon and just keep checking nearby Apple Stores for stock.

 

A new phone for free because your order was lost/stolen?

Ummmm yeah... good luck with that. It's not any different than the $20 t-shirt I ordered a few weeks back that never showed up... I got a refund and they shipped another.

 

So weird how people still steal phones when they are easily traced.

Less than a $grand iphone really worth losing your job?

 

Don't expect anything from FedEx as you weren't their customer. Apple is. Or Verizon. Or whoever shipped it.

 

As you get older you will understand that there are many possibilities in any scenario. You don't know the driver stole your phone. Obviously someone did. Be careful who you accuse of something until you gather your facts.

 

You have no business with FedEx, verizon paid FedEx to ship the phone, not you, you can only go after verizon, surprise they even talk to you.

 

FedEx. When it absolutely positively has to be stolen overnight.

 

I was just making sure it wasn't possibly a neighbor or someone. Had that **** happen to me before. That's why I have UPS myChoice so I can make sure it does directly to the customer service center.

 

These trucks are unattended when a driver runs to someones door. Fedex drivers make way too much to risk their job over a couple hundred dollar phone. My bet is someone other than the driver. It's a downright shame that other employees are quick to finger one of their own.

 

You won't get anything from them other than an apology. No company will compensate you significantly for inconvenience. I would also not do a pre order and just go to a store. Tons of stores are getting Verizon units in stock so that seems like a faster way.

 

And if that Fedex driver did steal it, he's a dumbass. Trading a $80,000 job for $1,000? Wow. Just wow.

They'll be getting a lawsuit.

 

Unless I'm missing something here I'm not seeing how the OP's phone was stolen by the Fedex driver? It's very possible it was stolen off the truck load but that doesn't indicate the driver actually stole it. I'd go out on a limb and even say the driver didn't do it. He'd have to be able to cover his tracks. I'm sure Fedex has each driver sign a liability clause that threatens their job if anything off the truck was stolen and proven they were behind it. At any rate, who cares about getting an apology, I would just want Fedex to reimburse me the cost of my phone so I could get another one.

 

I guess Fedex gets what they paid for.

 

FedEx drivers get paid around $35k a year. Who knows how many he stole though. Maybe he thought it was worth it.

Whose going to sue them and for what? They'll cover the cost of the stolen goods and that's pretty much it. The sender gets the benefit since it's their product.

Doubt anyone will pay a lawyer $15,000+ to start a lawsuit to recover imaginary damages beyond the lost phone which is already covered anyway.

 

FedEx and UPS routes start at around $50K and climb quick if you stay. Still unlikely for the driver to have taken it.
