I only receive packages from them, for example from Farnell. The only
problem I once had was that Farnell shipped something between xmas and
new year and they wouldn't deliver it until after new year or something
like that. Other then that I like them. It might be that US customers
demand higher quality services from their suppliers and that therefore
UPS is 'good' compared to other companies operating here in the
netherlands.

In particular, I don't consider the drivers who deliver the stuff to be
idiots. I once expected a larger delivery from Dell. The driver
explained that it often happened that some stuff from Dell was delivered
a day later. Indeed the expected extra packages where delivered a day
later.

When we moved a few years ago, the driver recognised us from the old
place and delivered the goods addressed to our old place to our new
place.

All in all, I'm a happy customer.
