We've been doing that for years at Xmas! There's that many packets at Xmas we have extra drivers/shifts in the morning and after deliveries.


First time it's ever happened for me, presumably because now you're private you'll actually get fired for not doing your job.

I remember when I used to get my deliveries at 8:15am on the dot every day back when they didn't strike every week.

We've just signed a new deal (well, effectively once it goes through the unions) That the job won't change for 5 years, unless the environment rapidly changes. I.e. provided we still make a profit we're golden.

Royal Fail strikes again.

Special instructions: do not leave with neighbours

Cars through the door saying it's with the neighbours, who we know are now on holiday.

Won't be getting that back anytime soon then :fp:

Delivery from Royal Mail this morning, rang the strawberry floating doorbell like he's supposed to, didn't knock quietly. Then I answered the door and he gave me the package instead of leaving it in the dustbin so I could throw it away. Then to top it all off he said merry christmas. How do I complain?

9am isn't early though, is it? Most proper people have long since left the house by then.

Amazon regional depots deliver blow to embattled high street

In each case, Amazon is teaming up with smaller companies such as City Sprint and Transline, which take the product to customers' doors.


Basically smaller and local versions of Yodel.

Amazon Logistics failing to deliver an ink cartridge. It's always been Royal Mail, and it's always come through the letterbox no problem. But noooo, not any more. They'd rather give you a little slip saying "we missed you - we'll try again tomorrow". Just put it through the letterbox you buffoons!

Got presents from amazon delivered today.

Check the package and there's a big hole on one side (I took photos before opening) and surprise surprise two of the 3 presents inside are Damaged.
