Worse courier ever.

I have FOUR Ebay buys that have been stuck in the Evri shipping system for nearly two weeks.

Last update was a 10 days ago. I don't think they'll ever get delivered.

An Ebay refund is no problem, but Evri really does suck.

I find InPost much better

Royal Mail gets criticised but I ordered some Ebay items a couple of weeks ago that used RM, and they were delivered in two days.

There are many more couriers Ebay sellers could use like you say that are far more reliable.

Evri need to get out of business.

I hadn't heard of Evri before this year, I got a couple of deliveries from them in the last month though and everything went smoothly. I have had no courier issues this year thankfully (probably cos Fastway have gone out of business)

They used to be called Hermes. Nice to know you're okay.

But I'm gonna have to look for other presents if they're not delivered soon. I can't be messing about.

I think they're lost for good.

Remember loads more parcels are being sent every day and are in their system. Ten days is just too long, I've been told.

I'll give it a few more days though.

You'll have to start Christmas shopping in October next year

….ahhhhh, so annoying for you Gusto, when you thought that you were all done and dusted and just waiting for the deliveries…yeah, Evri can be pretty bad, I have to say…but actually, pretty good/easy to send stuff with so I guess that’s why they’re quite widely used on eBay…

Evri just don't care and there's no contact number. The Ebay sellers say they will give refunds if I don't get the parcels soon. That's good. There are hundreds of preople in the same position, it's all over the Internet.

You'll never guess what happend.

Just had an Evri delivery!!! Not even mentioned it was out for delivery in the tracking!!

No good anyway, they sent the wrong product! It'll have to be returned.

DHL are pretty good, DPD are the best by far though imo

Ive had trouble with both of those and UPS ,always sorted it in the end,but annoying when they say they tried to deliver but no one was available to receive parcel when we have waited in all day, Evri has always been spot on,I reckon it's the luck of the draw, I found DPD better than DHL though.

I've kind of given up with ebay and Amazon's going the same way. I get a message to say your package has been delivered... But no package. It's a racket.

Interesting …

We use eBay as default these days

Never have any delivery issues at all and occasional when the product is underwhelming the sellers are happy enough to give a 100% refund and many don’t want the product back if you show displeasure in your messages to them

At worst you keep the item and get 50 % refund - they are all so desperate to avoid a bad feedback rating off you

I've had messages to say stuff's been delivered when it hasn't. There's a secure mail box by my gate and the house is clearly signed. When I've contacted them they've told me to wait 24 hours and check my neighbours don't have it. I don't have any neighbours. I had one delivery that didn't arrive despite the courier firm saying it had been delivered, then turned up days later via Royal Mail. Hopeless...

That’s weird compared to our experiences


We don’t have a mailbox system so I don’t know how that works .. could it be confusing to the guys dripping off ??

Do you ever check their feedback history/ ratings ??

I tend to to look at their NEGATIVE feedback comments and go from there unless it’s only a few quid involved

Glad I don't use eBay

Well it’s bladdy marvellous !

Often you can get what you want for 50 to 50% of high street prices this is for NEW products


There are thousands of amazing used items for sale .. I am looking at my third USED iwatch purchase- amazing value on eBay

Anything we see advertised on the telly or online or whatever can be found far cheaper on eBay - often free delivery 2-3 days later



We’re not taking cheapest alternatives here more like the same exact gadget / toy or appliance but far cheaper ..

I will admit to filtering out all the foreign sellers wherever possible and sticking to UK based people though you pay a few quid more than foreign sellers ..

[bots]

its down to the delivery drivers in a specific area, so any courier can be good or bad depending on your luck

[The Grinch]

If I see my personnal collection on ebay i use Royal Mail pick up, so much better. I usually have the same Evri delivery driver so its been good, so far, but touch wood just incase

[Zizu]

Ironically we bought a £25 present for our grandson in Florida off an online business weeks ago and the damn thing hasn’t turned up yet !!
That never happens with eBay in our experience

We fly to the states early Saturday morning
