anyone shipping to a FedEx Hold-At facility?

[Tony Touch]

Is anyone here having their Incredible shipped to a FedEx Hold-At center (e.g. FedEx Office Center)?

I'm at work all day so I won't be home to sign for the package, and the pick-up center isn't close to my house. But there is a FedEx Hold-At center very close to my work. I could easily pick it up there during the work day.

Just curious if anyone else is doing this, or if it's even allowed (due to possible billing address issue)? I called CSR and they said I can't do it, but she didn't sound very confident about that.

Why not just have it shipped to your work...that's what I did and
I've done it several times in the past

I've been told that VZW requires the FedEx guy to only drop off your phone if they leave with a signature...and it doesn't matter if it's in person. (anybody confirm?)

So what I'm doing is leaving a note on my door that says "FedEx: PLEASE LEAVE PACKAGE AT DOOR. THANK YOU.
Signed,
xxxxxxx

^ This.

The shipper can specify a direct or indirect signature with FedEx. In the first case it has to be signed in the driver's presence. I don't know which option VZW has specified.

I plan on calling fedex the moment I get my tracking number. I will be working that day and plan to have them hold it at their holding facility. Even if I miss the shipment, I will call and ask where it is being held and pick it up directly myself.

I'm having mine delivered to my job.

Lets just say I can't have things delivered to my place of work. Or else I would have.
