Fastway Couriers Reviews 

Awful courier service. Like many others, I’m receiving an email to say attempted delivery/call when they absolutely didn’t. Package turns up the next day absolutely soaked through and a man had just dropped it at my door and got into his car and drove off. No Fastway licensing in his clothes or car. Disgraceful company

Said they attempted to deliver my package, but never did. They do this all the time. Our house has CCTV cameras so it's easy to prove their lies. They then left the latest package on the van, which was full of glass jars full of honey and 2 days later they now say the package is damaged. It wasn't damaged 2 days before when it was originally loaded onto the van. Tried contacting customer service twice, I got completely ignored. They are a disgracefully inept company and I shudder when I see it's them that's delivering my package. This is for Fastway Limerick, Ireland.

Worst courier service in Ireland they have no contact numbers for south east office or drivers. Parcels are marked as delivered when they have not. My advice pay extra and use another company because fastway is BAD

Would give zero stars if I could. I had 4 parcels due for delivery from Very. The tracking said out for delivery so I waited all day but nobody arrived. Next thing the tracking first says delivery rejected return to sender and then says left card with receiver, return to depot. I'm extremely upset about this. Absolutely disgusting service 😒

Once again, you fail me so deeply with your delivery drivers. The guy never rings the bell. I am working in the same room that has the bell so i should hear it. So its an outright LIE that they say they ring it. I tried and its working fine. Then i call back the delivery driver (after half hour because i was in a meeting myself), who says he has called me over an hour ago (caught in another LIE), who tells me he will deliver on monday. Sorry if you dont ring this bell, dont call me. Just ring like every delivery has done. Other packages have all been on time. Also i dont even get notified about this. If i could choose a delivery service i would

From someone who does all their shopping online and has experience with various different couriers, I can honestly say that Fastway are the worst. Recover emails to say delivery will be done that day and then nothing received but will receive another email saying it has been delivered.
Once I found the driver fling my package over the garden walk into the garden instead of dropping it to the door.

Any company that makes Australia Post look good is the lowest, didnt make the delivery as claimed, have CCTV watching the front no attempt to deliver just drove past to claim they attempted to deliver, just pure lies and lazy drivers
Any company using these simpletons is looking to have there business destroyed

Fastway are a disgrace of a company,, they said the package I was expecting was delivered into my hands, it wasn't as I was in work on the day, now im €100 down because I received no package and the driver lied about handing it too me, complete disgrace of a company,,il never use them again

Package never delivered. Tracking number no longer active. Messages ignored. Is this a criminal enterprise?

My policy is not to do business with anyone who uses Aramex as the carrier. Occasionally I get caught. I realise that Aramex are dirt cheap, but surely businesses realise that their reputation depends as much on their choice of partners as it does on their own integrity and efficiency. The service is unbelievably slow, cumbersome and frustrating. I could push freight across the Nullabore with my nose quicker than Aramex, but that's only part of their Keystone Cops operation, the next hurdle is getting it to move out of their depot once it finally traverses the country. Fortunately, most Australian based businesses are getting wise to the damage done to their business by Aramnex, but still the bulk of Chinese sellers pretending to be based in Australia use them because they're cheap.

Most orders from eBay arrive late. Tracking info and updates are rare, causing me to be frustrated.

I am now steering clear of sellers that use fastways.

Dreadful organisation, completely & utterly incompetent, then a battle to get a refund. You have to buy 20 shipments in advance, they take your money then don't bother coming to collect the parcels. Had a right battle to get my money back. I'd avoid using them at any cost. Far better and more professional options available. I have heard similar feedback form other artisan suppliers who have used them in past. All have gone elsewhere. The portal to book shipments is also frustrating, once you book on-line you have to phone them to collect shipments too. What's the point of booking on-line if you then need 2nd action to get shipments lifted.

I've had no positive experience with this company, and try to avoid ordering from retailers who use them, but sometimes you don't know what carrier a company uses. These are only my 2 recent experiences:

In April, I ordered an item from abroad that I was meant to take on holiday. It arrived into the Fastway depot after about a week - where it stayed. After a week with no status change, and my holiday imminent, I contact their chat. I was then told "We haven't received this delivery yet", and disconnected the chat before I could answer. I had to contact the sender for them to deal with it, eventually the package arrived - two weeks later, while I was on holiday, they just left it in the hallway of my building.

Last week I ordered an item from an Irish store, I was not happy when I saw that it had ended up with Fastway. This morning, around 7, status was loaded onto van and would be attempted delivered today. Took today for work-from-home. At around 7 pm there's an email saying they tried to call me, but there was "an issue with the phone number". This exact same thing happened last year as well, no call, nobody showed - I assume what they do is that they load a bunch of parcels in the morning, not knowing if they'll be able to deliver them all, and if they don't get around to your parcel, there's "something wrong with your number". They're a disaster, I'd rather pay for delivery than have retailers offer free shipping using Fastway.

Would give zero stars if I could, possibly the worst company I have ever come in contact with. Avoid at all cost

Another day another pack of lies. After days of being lied to about rang no answer responses on my tracking I contacted them told them do not to ring just deliver it. Even left the shed open and told them on the slim chance I was out to put it in there. So a week after my package was sent from Dublin I'm being lies to agian, even after ensuring my number was up dated. There isn't reason good enough to use this farce of a company. They have no professionalism, no honesty, and no right to put the word fast in their name. The worst experience I have ever had with a company. I hope they go out of business to save other people from their disgrace of a service. There isn't a rating low enough for them.

Don't believe this tranaport.This is one of the f...k service transportation,don't believe these guys ,doing fraud by taking money ...No proper response from the bloody service guys ...

Your delivery service failed to drop off the item at my FRONT door. UNIT 6 - 3rd floor

They left the item in a "public unsafe location" on the GROUND floor, it is the "PUBLIC" entrance to the complex.
The item was stolen.

I purchase items all the time, the courier has always left items at my front door. Your service was being SLOOPY or LAZY

Why did the courier NOT leave my item at my front door on the 3rd floor? The item was stolen because the courier didn't do his job. Ask your driver why they didn't deliver to my apartment on the 3rd floor/unit 6

Do you understand what a public area and entrance to a building is? You can NOT drop an item where anyone walking past can steal the package. That's just a stupid place to leave anything.

From your Google reviews it seems the practice is common. Happy to add my 1-star review to Google. With a rating of 1.3 / 5. Do you seriously believe I or many others would consider your service in the future?

Time to smarten up, and possibly hire a GM that gives a dam.

In the beginning I thought Fastway/Aramex was not a very good courier company. But in retrospect its not the company that is not so good, it basically is just their tracking service. But my most recent dealings with Fastway/Aramex, I have begun to see them in a different light. Their tracking is a bit abysmal but the most important thing is the parcel arrives, and to put it bluntly isn't this what is expected of a courier company, not the tracking. Tracking is just the icing on the cake compared to the parcel arriving. So my reconsidered view of Fastway/Aramex based on their last 3 to 4 deliveries, is they show a vast improvement in their service and deserve the 5 stars for this alone.
Of course you cannot expect service such as Australia Post offers because they are not as big as the Government service but for what they are Fastway/Aramex are deserving of the 5 star review. Thinking of all the local delivery people, Fastway/Aramex deserve 5 stars for the end deliver service, not to mention all the hard working people at the start of the delivery. No I have to reiterate Fastway/Aramex in my opinion deserve the 5 stars for their service.

I insist Darren delivers my parcel today 26.4.24. He has stolen it !
