I made an order for a perfume from Next which was sent by next day delivery. Unfortunately the only delivery option they offer is through Hermes Courier (which is usually problematic in my area and usually avoid them where possible). I received an email that it would be delivered by hermes and when i heard something being put into the letterbox i checked and saw a black jiffy envelope with "Next Beauty" on the opposite side had been posted. The jiffy was flat and i could tell immediately there was no box inside. I emailed Next straight away to let them know. Hermes had taken a photo as "proof" of delivery, with the flat jiffy hanging out of the letterbox, and it seems that Next has absolutely no interest in further investigating this. I am so angry that this is allowed to happen, i understand this is a difficult issue but i am an honest customer and have never caused any issues before. I don't know if it occurred at the Next warehouse (as the item i ordered is now out of stock which it hasn't been for the months that i have seen it on the website) or someone at the Hermes courier company had stolen it from the jiffy along the way. I thought Next would help out a bit more, but their customer service is like talking to a robot with repeated automated responses and just keep putting a link to the hermes delivery and photo with no interest in looking further into it. I have added the picture that hermes put up on their website. The jiffy is flat and usually chunky boxes are too big to able to be posted through the letterbox unless they are quite flat or a letter. I won't be ordering from Next again or using Hermes or any company that uses Hermes. And i urge people to beware, especially from Hermes workers from the Tottenham area/Enfield depot, they are allowed to steal parcels, which i think is utterly disgraceful.
