Should be called Slowway Couriers.
Every parcel sent via Fastway has arrived late, up to a couple of weeks late. Took 3 weeks to get from Sydney to Brisbane. Reaching out to the company, they didn't know where the parcels were, claimed they had never even been received.

If I could leave negative stars I would.
As a small business, I need to get my parcels out on time. I understand day's delay as couriers are busy and traffic can get in the way of things but Fastway take it to a whole new level.
21 days is the record for not having my parcels picked up even after multiple reassurances.
Each and EVERY pick up is at least 3-4 days and I have had many drivers lie re attempted pick up where the parcel 'was not ready for collection'. I have security cameras and they never show up.
Also drivers unable to find my huge carport with parcels under a large 'COURIER PICK UP' sign.
Totally disgraceful. If I ha any other choices for couriers to many locations, I would take them.
Alas Aus Post are jut as bad and WAY more expensive.
Truly terrible service.

HOPELESS
I don’t even want to give it one star but it won’t release until I do. I don’t want to write a book on the issues but they don’t know where a parcel is. When you start to track it shows when it left the depot (joke), then it goes nowhere, then it’s delayed, then they don’t know why, then it’s going to be delivered, then it’s not delivered, then they say a card was left where to collect, no card left, then the day day a card is left. The Regional Manager even promised he would personally deliver the parcel. No he didn’t deliver, it had to collected

Delivery
Courier left parcel on the street at the foot of our letterbox despite the parcel label asking for a signature. I was home all day and not attempt was made to come to the door which is easy to access from from the street.

Deplorable service
Deplorable, unprofessional service. They are lazy, irresponsible and they lie. Placed parcel connect card in my screen door - directly under my notice requesting them NOT to do so and asking them to place it in my secure locked post box. Compromised security of my home by making it obvious no one was home. When I complained, they lied and said my post box was too full of junk mail (my post box is huge and clearly displays a 'no junk mail' sign.) Don't use them.
WORST COMPANY I HAVE DEALT WITH.
Absolute worst company I have dealt with in some time. Sent package from New Zealand to Australia with Aramex / Fastway. Item shipped from NZ on 21st Nov 2019 and it arrived in Australia on Nov 25th. Quite acceptable BUT then item was not delivered to customer until December 11th. Un-fecking-believable! The worst part is that they are almost impossible to get hold of on the phone. They ask you to visit their website and when you do this, they do not answer their emails. When I finally got through on their customer service number (after being on...
Read more hold for over an hour), I was advised that I will need to call their Melbourne depot on another number. After dialing this number, and listening to a recorded message that went on for what felt like an eternity, I waited on hold for another 30 minutes, all the time being told that my call was important to them and I am in position X in the queue. Getting hold of a person on this number just as bad. I am going to recommend all my customer avoid using this service and go with DHL, or EMS instead. SHOCKING SERVICE - SHOCKING CUSTOMER SUPPORT.- 20 reviews

Are there any good couriers in Australia?
After issue after issue with sendle, I thought we'd give Fastway a go impressed with their tracking of other items.
These guys make Sendle seem that much better, what a mistake using Fastway.
Issues
*Items never get picked up next day, often sit outside our business for days and days in the weather, then eventually get picked up.
*Many orders to WA, they quote up to 14 days, what the hell? Have customers inquiring to where their product is?
Never again, Au Post also seem so much better in comparison.
Hi Nick, thank you for reaching out. Fastway Couriers is one of the carrier services for Sendle. I'm so sorry for the poor service received. I can understand your frustration concerning your pick up a...

Terrible
Don't use this company. I ordered same day delivery thinking at worst it would arrive the following day. My small package travelling from Macquarie Park to Dee Why (26km) hasn't arrived. 10 days late and counting. It ruined my partners birthday surprise. I'm very disappointed and looks like I'm not the only one.
Hi there,
I’m sorry to hear this. Thanks for getting in touch. Our couriers do endeavour to deliver parcels on time, and we are of course very sorry to hear that this hasn’t been the case and there h...

Pathetic & a scam
Took my freight and didn't bother returning it til several wks later. I spoke to Cory from Fastway who was nothing more but useless. I asked for a freight to be returned to sender which he promised it will be actioned. Never happened. Nearly a month and this freight is still sitting in their depot. Finally got the freight back.
I have spoken to Silvani, Shivani, Cory.

Never Ever Use them again
Thanks for reading my review about the service I just bought.
I booked a parcel from Sydney CBD to Bankstown Local through Transdirect and Fastway Couriers. According to their booking, they suppose to pick up on 19th March and deliver between 19-20th March 2019.Though they mentioned, it may take 1/2 business day to deliver.
So it was booked on 19/03/2019 and suppose to deliver on 20/03/2019. Though the staffs were nice but it was not delivered till 27/03/2019.
One stage I lost my hope. May be it got lost. They even did not bother to update about the status of the parcel on their tracking, .
I would not recommend them at all. I will not use them ever again.
Unexpectedly disgusting service

Bendigo Fastway - worst customer service, refuse to pick up parcels all because they were to lazy to provide invoices in a timely manner and it takes them 14 days if they want to pick it up...... Stay away from them and stick with Australia Post.

Questions & Answers
Absolutely NO customer service BUT I managed to gain a VIP number and after 4 calls a nice lady answered the call and was vey helpful after I told them I was to take contact with Amazon USA and AU
a complaint has been made to Amazon seeking NOT to use them as they are bad for any business
the only place for Fastway and the new coat of paint Amarex is the Federal Court of Australia for Prohibited Trades Practices penalties
best advice DO NOT USE THEM and if the company you are purchasing uses them find another seller who uses somebody else
and be careful when agitated asians who deliver come calling at your premises and abuse you which just happened to me today
this asian guy damaged my front gate with his car door , yes a car door and not a designated Fastway vehicle and then stated it was too hot to deliver / blamed the weather and it gets better he tells lies that he actually attempted to deliver and when. he was confronted that he was no where near the property and CCTV never captured him , his story again changed
the better this show is shut down and the executives held accountable for misleading and deceptive conduct and unconscionable conduct in a court of law
After receiving everything from Australia Post, everything sent via fastway is delayed or not even sent out yet...
fastway is unreliable, slow and don't answer your questions, stick with Auspost
Where is my parcel, it is on board, out for delivery from 4 days
