FedEx Charging for Delivery

I have recently bought an Apple Watch Series 6 and had it delivered to the UK. About 2 weeks after recieving the delivery I have a letter from FedEx saying I owe £30 for the delivery, but the delivery is stated as free on Apples website.


Should I be paying this, or is it something that Apple should be covering the costs of.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7

This happened with a book I ordered from Apple (back when they printed books). Of the 6 books I had ordered, one was shipped from a different location than the other 5. This one book, also shipped via FedEx, actually had shipping fees. I immediately called Apple and explained the situation. They advised me to pay the FedEx charge and they would refund the amount to me. I did as they suggested, and within a couple days, Apple had indeed refunded the entire shipping fee.

It sure does not sound like anything that Apple or FedEx would do. My bet is that it is indeed a SCAM of some type. Guessing if you go online to your order you will see FREE shipping or shipping included on the invoice. Again I have never heard or had a separate shipping invoice for anything I have ordered from APPLE and I have used them for many items for many years.


Have you talked with anyone at Apple?
