Ok in the past 2 days I have had 2 Fedex packages delivered to my house from Coach Stores in Palm Beach, FL and Somerset, MI and they leave the tag instead of the package, wanting a signature in person.
Well, I called Fedex because we have a Signature Release on file with them and questioned why they didn't leave it.
Here's the thing: Fedex does not do the signature releases anymore. If the package doesn't need a signature they will leave it, but if they do they will give you a tag. She told me this was their new policy because they had some problem with liability.
So, this is FYI...if you are ordering from a Coach store and know your tracking number. You could also tell the SA to request a waiver for the signature. Just in case I would leave a note on your door if you want them to leave it at your house or you'll have to pick it up from their distribution center. The Fedex center where all of our packages go back to is 45 minutes to an hour away. Not fun during rush hour!
I don't think this happens with Coach.com because they don't require a signature and therefore Fedex would leave it. Just wanted you all to know that if you had a signature release on file with Fedex it no longer exists.
