What FedEx owes you

Most shippers leave money with the carrier without realizing it. Here's where Buster Fetcher gets it back.

🔍

Invoice billing errors

Additional handling fees on boxes that were within the limits. Address corrections on good addresses. Rural surcharges on city addresses. Duplicate charges. We audit every line, on Ground and Express.

$

Late delivery refunds

FedEx guarantees its Overnight and International Priority services. When a parcel arrives even a minute late, the transportation charges are yours to get back. We catch every eligible parcel.

📋

Fees to check

A billed weight far above what you declared. A signature or insurance fee you may not have asked for. We show you each one, and you confirm.

Late delivery refunds

When FedEx Express is late, you can get your money back.

FedEx brought back its money-back guarantee in February 2026 on its Overnight and International Priority services. If one of those parcels arrives even 60 seconds late, you can claim back the transportation charges. The catch: you have only 15 days from the invoice date to ask. Almost no one checks every parcel that fast.

Additional handling fee on boxes within the limits
+

FedEx charges an extra fee for boxes that are too long, too big or badly packed. Sometimes it's billed on a box that met every rule.

Heavy-package fee under the weight limit
+

FedEx adds a fee for packages over 25 kg (55 lb). If your package weighed less, the fee shouldn't be there.

Oversize charge on a normal parcel
+

FedEx bills $114 or more for oversize packages. Sometimes a parcel gets classed as oversize when it isn't.

Billed weight or size that doesn't match what you declared
+

FedEx billed a weight or dimensions far from what you shipped. A misplaced decimal can turn 15 lb into 150 lb.

Address correction fees on valid addresses
+

FedEx bills $17.60 to "correct" an address. If the original address was right, the fee is recoverable.

Remote rural surcharge on a non-rural address (Ground)
+

FedEx Ground adds a fee for remote postal codes. Billed on an address that isn't on FedEx's list, it's an overcharge.

Out-of-delivery-area surcharge that doesn't apply (Express)
+

FedEx Express charges extra to reach remote areas. When the postal code isn't in a surcharge zone, the fee shouldn't be there.

Delivery area surcharge on U.S. shipments
+

Shipping into the U.S., FedEx adds a fee for select ZIP codes. Billed on a ZIP code that isn't on the list, it's recoverable.

Saturday delivery billed on a weekday
+

A $27.50 Saturday fee on a parcel actually delivered Monday to Friday.

Dangerous goods fee on regular goods
+

A dangerous goods surcharge billed on a shipment that had nothing hazardous in it.

Signature fee you didn't ask for
+

A signature option billed when you didn't request one, or a higher signature level than the one you chose.

Wrong service billed
Coming soon
+

You shipped one service and FedEx billed a more expensive one.

Insurance fee when you don't buy insurance
+

A declared value (insurance) fee billed when you've told us you don't buy insurance.

Duplicate charges
+

The same parcel billed more than once, on one invoice or across several.

Price jumps on the same shipment
Coming soon
+

Same route, same weight, same service, higher price than last time. Catching it early gives you leverage with your FedEx rep.

Third-party billing fees
+

Extra fees billed when you ship on someone else's account, or someone ships on yours, that don't match the agreement.

Customs charges billed twice
+

The same import entry billed two times. It happens more than you'd think on cross-border shipments.

Customs fees on a shipment that never crossed the border
+

Customs or import fees billed on a shipment that stayed inside one country.

Shipments from addresses not on your account

Parcels shipped on your FedEx account from an address you don't use. Usually a sign of an error or someone else using your account.

Common questions about FedEx and Buster Fetcher

How does Buster Fetcher connect to my FedEx account?
+

We connect securely to your FedEx account, and our team guides you through setup.

Does FedEx still have a money-back guarantee?
+

Yes, on some services. FedEx brought it back on February 12, 2026, for its Overnight services in Canada and its International Priority services to and from Canada. It's still suspended on FedEx Ground and the other services. We check every parcel against the rules in force on its ship date.

Which FedEx services qualify for late delivery refunds?
+

FedEx First Overnight®, FedEx Priority Overnight®, FedEx Standard Overnight™, and the FedEx International Priority® services (including International Priority® Express, International First® and International Priority Freight). FedEx Ground®, FedEx 2Day®, FedEx Economy® and FedEx® International Economy don't qualify right now.

What's the deadline to file a FedEx claim?
+

For late deliveries, 15 days from the invoice date. For billing errors, 90 days from the invoice date on FedEx Express, and 180 days from the ship date on FedEx Ground. We file late claims automatically, and flag billing errors early so you have time to claim them.

I mostly ship FedEx Ground. Is Buster Fetcher still worth it?
+

Yes. Ground parcels can't be claimed for late delivery right now, but Ground invoices still carry billing errors: additional handling fees, address corrections, rural surcharges and duplicate charges. You have 180 days to dispute them, and we check every line.

Will FedEx know I'm using Buster Fetcher? Will it affect my account or my rates?
+

No. We file late-delivery refunds through FedEx's normal process, the same one open to any account holder. Your relationship with FedEx stays exactly as it was.

Do I need to switch carriers? Is there a contract?
+

You don't switch carriers. You keep your FedEx account. Late delivery refunds are month to month, and you can cancel anytime. Shipping Monitor is a one-year contract, paid for the year up front or monthly. It runs for the full year.

Does Buster Fetcher work on my FedEx international shipments?
+

Yes. FedEx International Priority shipments to and from Canada qualify for late delivery refunds. On cross-border invoices, we also catch customs charges billed twice, customs fees on shipments that never crossed the border, and delivery area surcharges on U.S. ZIP codes that aren't on FedEx's list.
