Nope. Mostly because I'm smart enough to do the COD routine.

COD is not text talk. It is a very commonly used acronym, particularly in the Delivery Business world.


FYI... every single home delivery place where I live happens to take the order, and you pay the driver when they deliver.

I live in a place that we are honest enough for delivery places to take that risk.

Well funnily enough i dont work for in the delivery Business world.

Where the hell do you live? LOL! You actually think you can order a product from a big company and they would be stupid enough to send it out without you paying?

Like i said there was no need to be so rude in your post we dont all live in the back of beyond where everyone knows everyone! Some of us live in London.

I cannot honestly think of one food delivery place here that demands money up front where I live. Not one.

From Indian, Chinese, Chippies and even Dominos pizza..... none of them request money prior to delivery.

Okaaaayyyy we get it, it wasn't food. I still think you should file a complaint with them - if you've paid for express delivery of some kind then you've been let down, and presumably inconvenienced by their delay?

yeah I hate it as well, not so long ago I brought some stuff from Amazon and paid extra for them to be delivered on a certain day, but they arrived 3 days late :/ Which doesnt sound a lot but at the time 3 days felt like 3 years..

Especially when you pay for a service which they dont provide and send absolutley no correspondence with apologies or even acknowledge your email asking for an explenation.

Amazon I believe use companies that are part of the HDN - and some that fall under that umbrella have one of the most appalling service levels.

If anyone can avoid the HDN network - avoid it!

Okay. Simple answer.

No - I don't hate it when this happens. There could be a very good reason - such as the delviery driver having been in a serious accident.

I'd wait till I found out the reason for the delay before I decided to fume about it.

Never had that happen to me, I'm afraid, but I would definitely hate it.
