The bin?

Without even writing it on the sorry we've missed you card? And what if you never noticed it and the bin men took it away?

...Yodel are awful, they quite often don't even knock or try to deliver them...do you have somewhere safe where they could just leave it, and leave a note on the door...even if you're there but just to make sure that you do get the delivery today....

I lost over a thousand pounds in total from 'broken contents' over a period with these bastards, when I used to e-bay, but their small print made litigation 'uneconomical' and they had all on to apologise. Then - a few weeks after I stopped E-baying - this news broke. The documentary was ENRAGING.

If the parcel is meant to be signed for but wasn't tell them you didn't receive it and get a refund?

Yodel, just cross everything and hope that it turns up in time and in one piece. Hermes so far, have always found pretty reliable, much prefer my items to be delivered by them.

I had an item from an Amazon seller arrived today even though I was emailed the delivery date as the 2nd, two days ago and a tracking on it, fat lot of good that did, but then this was delivered by Royal Mail, so enough said I suppose.

Yes they are I don't think you need to wear a uniform to do a good job the lady that delivers mine has been doing it for years and is instantly recognisable as she will be holding the item I have ordered with the company logo and she manages to find a place to put it if I'm not in and puts a note through the door.

Sometimes (like just now) the guy will just open our front door and leave it there himself

Think he's a Hermes guy

When I was in the garden once, I had a parcel delivery man, not being able to get an answer at the front door, open my side gate, walk round the back of my house, open the back door, walk into my house and leave the parcel there.

I love the Amazon locker system
you just key in your code
and it opens a door of a locker


That's what Josy needs
