Here's a suggestion for Yodel (formerly Home Delivery Network): Try having the driver read the address on the parcel, drive to the address, and deliver the parcel to the address.

I know it's a radical departure from your current system of ignore the address; pick a random house; try to deliver to the wrong address; take the parcel back to the depot; lather, rinse and repeat, but if you give it a go, I reckon it might catch on.

You might also want to try not telling someone their parcel's on the van and having them wait in all day, when it's actually sitting on a shelf in your delivery depot being ignored.

While we're at it, if you're going to provide a telephone number, make sure there's a way to speak to a human. Having an automated system that repeatedly tells you "we don't have enough information to help you, please call back" just adds insult to injury.


Faarrrkkkking bunch of useless sunshines! Mad | :mad:




EDIT: The parcel finally arrived this afternoon, with only minor damage to one bottle.

The even better news is that I've heard back from the sender (BrewDog), and they're about to switch to a new courier, so Yodel won't be involved next time I order. Big Grin | :-D
