In order to balance our focus on service and safety, the FedEx money-back guarantee for all other FedEx Express® and FedEx Ground® services will remain suspended until further notice. The status of the money-back guarantee for these FedEx services and additional FedEx services worldwide is being evaluated on an ongoing basis, and our focus remains on continuing to provide the best possible service to our customers.
