DPD 24hour courier
« on: 25 March 2014, 12:30:40 »

I ordered a grill element for my cooker from eSpares yesterday, and immediately got a email telling me that it would be delivered today by DPD.
AT 6:45 this morning I got a text and an email say that they would deliver today. A signature would be required but, if. I wanted to tick the box, I could tell them to leave it somewhere safe. I filled out the box and got an email and a text telling they had received my instructions. At 8o'clock I got an email and a text telling me that Shaun would be delivering my package between , get this, 16:14 and 17:14. I followed the link supplied and I was shown a map with my location and Shaun's location. Shaun is 17.6 miles away and is delivering parcel number 6. You are parcel number 108.


His little van wasn't moving on the map though....lazy bastid. ;D

I don't know whether this is outstanding service or stalking. ;D

You're waiting in just to make sure he doesn't turn up before 16:13 or after 17:15 aren't you... ;D

Companies like that,pressurise the drivers to go like f**k, if the driver is late losses bonus,then when they get lots of damage done to vans,as a consequence of drivers speeding to keep to unreasonable tight delivery slots,then the customer moans like f**k because drivers late.
As always drivers fault, management wont change anything as head office says it can and will be done >:(

We dispatch around 1,200 consignments daily via DPD. Very few problems.  :y
