“I answered the door to a DHL driver with my delivery, obviously in light of the current Corona virus social distancing guidance. I stepped back and politely asked the driver if he could place my parcel on the doormat he abrubtly threw it to the ground turned about and left. Thankfully for his sake it wasn't a glass or fragile present inside. Disgusting behaviour and in know way professional. Sorely disappointed by this treatment.”
“Useless. What is the point of having a 'customer service number'which has 0 customer service agents. This is not a customer service number is an automated computer system which helps with sweet FA when you have an actual query”
“You have to give 1 star to write a review, they are not worth 1 star. I've had 6 deliveries from DHL and every single one was at least a week late,over 2 weeks on one occasion . I am still waiting on another,its running late.”
“DHL are hopeless and lose and steal people's packages because they are poor and can't afford to buy their own stuff.
DHL stands for Dick Hockey League. This is how they do their deliveries.”
“Ordered brake pads through Euro car parts 25 March as of today 5 April still not arrived checked their tracking service and still information received and still in Birmingham contacted dhl received e mail that delivery would be 6- 8 April this is not acceptable even with covoid19 outbreak how come all my other 5 orders were delivered by other couriers dpd hermes Royal Mail within 3 days they seem to be working as normal.”
“Lazy shithouse in van didn't even attempt delivery and was attempting to do a three point turn and do a runner at 2pm when I was waiting in the car park for the skanky twatt since 10 am cos I knew you were a joke. I had to run after the van to get worthless shithouse to give me my parcel. Go bust shithouses and starve”
“I have never given any review, especially not negative ones but I will make an effort to find every website to rate this s**tty service with 1 star even if I have to make an account on every website. Customer service is absolute s**t, if I may say so. I've tried to call 5 times to ask where I'm supposed to pick up my package as the delivery guy neither came nor left a note. I did not receive my package as promised nor did I get a note where to pick it up.
Their website is not navigable, their drivers reckless and the hotline is absolute horror.
DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL.”
“After my eBay purchase in February, I checked the tracker to see that it has made it here in Perth. But apparently was not delivered. I kept trying to contact the company but kept getting put on hold for an hour or longer. As no one wanted to deal with it. I tried to contact them through email, but all they could tell me was that they were "investigating". Well that's not good enough!
These guys have a lot to answer for. From what the customer representative told me, there was a particular flight between Perth and Singapore where my package was supposedly lost/stolen. Now this is a goddamn disgrace. They really need to investigate their staff because they have been stealing things and quite frankly that is a joke. What a pathetic company these guys are! And I will NOT be getting anything delivered with DHL EVER in future again and will let everyone know how crappy this company have been. Go to hell!”
“I sent parcel a parcel with DHL in February which was collected in due time.
Their tracking shows that the parcel was collected but next day they had a "problem" with the delivery address.
The parcel cannot be found now.
When contacted the customer service, they claim that the parcel was never collected. When pointed out that your own tracking shows the opposite, answer: "Well, that is wrong. We wont refund anything"
Check the attached photo.
Needless to say, I will recover my money now via Small Claims Court. Will never ever again use these clowns!”
“TERRIBLE SERVICE AND COMMS.
They delivered my package to the wrong address and accepted a signature (or themselves signed) for my package using my name. The package was clearly marked with my correct name and address, two closes away.
Their tracking stated that the package had been delivered and signed for. Yes, but to the completely wrong address and by someone who wasn't the correct recipient. Only by going round the doors did I managed to track down my package.
When I complained and asked for an explanation, I was given an case number which was completely useless as, despite contacting them on a number of occasions to chase up a response, and quoting the case number, all I received back was a statement that the package had been delivered and signed for, completely ignoring my complaint in which I detailed that the package had been delivered to the wrong address and signed for someone who clearly wasn't the correct recipient. All my subsequent message to DHL have been ignored.”
“Absolute waste of time.
I had an order to be delivered at a certain time and date. I used their system to rearrange the delivery to be diverted to my neighbour as I desperately wanted the item at the date specified. They never even went to my neighbour, who was in all day. They just took the pareel back to the "local pick-up centre" which is approximatly 25 miles away. I cannot get through to them now as it's too late. I will not be using them again”
“Never use them. Although it's a big company and because of this they are not bothered about customers. I had a really important delivery and they gave me a delivery time slot of on hour without any driver information, I gave them my number aswel to text me when it's my delivery turn. I kept an eye on the progress of driver and when it was my turn and I was waiting badly in my porch, the driver never came, next thing was, on their tracking page it says attempted but no one attended. I was furious and called the customer service and they were of no help, even they had no driver information nor they could track the driver whether he attempted my delivery or not. All they could do is rearrange the delivery. Really bad service and totally rubbish tracking system.”
“delivered to wrong address probably signed off be driver happens a lot with DHL try contacting but given the run around, strongly advise against using this company.”
“AVOID!!!!!!!!!!
Parcel should have been delivered next day ( Tuesday).Got a msg saying it would be delivered between 16.40 and 17.40pm.NO PARCEL and no explanation.
Wednesday msg from the supplier, who spoke to DHL to say out for delivery between 11am and 12am today but because I couldn't be at home chose one of their delivery parcel shops in my town just a mile away from me. .Got a text at 3.26pm to say driver is delayed but we expect to deliver today.NO PARCEL !!! Complained again to DHL online but got another automated load of BS.
Thursday emailed a complaint to the supplier of my goods and they rang DHL.Promised delivery between 14.12 and 15.12pm...Got a text msg at 12.15 saying driver is delayed but will be with you later today.NO PARCEL !! Emailed supplier and told them what a bloody joke this is...They checked with DHL who said the driver had already tried to deliver and can't turn back.NO ONE TRIED TO DELIVER AT MY ADDRESS OR THE PARCEL SHOP!! Driver admitted he didn't have the parcel on his van as the parcel shop is on another van...A MILE UP THE ROAD FROM ME ???????
DHL IS A JOKE...THE DRIVERS ARE LIARS AND CANNOT BE BOTHERED .. Never had any problems with UPS or FEDEX or TNT..”
“Extremely Bad DHL Express Service in Istanbul
I have been living in Istanbul for the past 6 months. During this time I was ill three times and I could not manage this illness. I did not go to a local doctor because they overcharge people and they dont speak English so communication is difficult. The last time I was very ill with symptoms similar to the corona virus. The pharmacies here do not have excellent vitamins. So I decided to ask my brother who lives in Australia to send me good vitamins, Vitamin C, Cod Liver Oil capsules and an Immune boost vitamin. With the corona virus being harmful. I wanted to protect myself in the long term rather than always having to depend on antibiotics.
My brother lives in Brisbane so on Feb 18 he posted a a package to me with these bottles of vitamins. He sent it DHL express from a local post office in Brisbane. He sent me photos of the bottles of vitamins and the pacakge. Tracking Number-EJ 252296624AU
DHL waybill No- 5470703372
He also sent a number to call here in Turkey which the local post office in Brisbane gave him - +903124491000. My brother said that the pacakge will take about 4 days to arrive.
On the package is my full address in Istanbul and my Turkish mobile number.
Four days later I did not hear anything about the package. I thought that the package may arrive at the local post office in my area. So a week later I did visit this post office in Uskudar and the guy who I spoke to put in the tracking number on his computer and told me that the package is not in Turkey and maybe it will arrive the following week.
The following week I went back to this local post office and was told that I need to go to the postal head office in an area called Acibadem. So I went to this post office and they put in the tracking number in their computers and found nothing. I asked one of them to call the number my brother gave me but this number was engaged.
I spoke to another friend to call the number in Turkey and he finally said that someone spoke to him and said I need to wait another day and if I dont hear anything than I must write a petition to the head post office about the fact that I did not hear anything about the package.
I still received no sms to date or a phone call from DHL - there was no letter or note from them requesting me to come to their office. My room mate receives DHL packages and they usually leave a sticker on the apartment door but nothing was left for my package.
On Wednesday 11 March I decided to visit the DHL head office
DHL Express
Yalcin Kores Cad. No:20
34212 Yenibosna/Bagcilar
Istanbul-Turkey
I explained to someone there about the package my brother sent me and provided the tracking number and the waybill number. Then this female staff member told that the package had arrived on 21 Feb and that they have been trying to contact me. These are lies because there are no call logs on my phone from them and neither is there an sms from them. Then she said that they were getting ready to send the package back to Australia. If I wanted the package then I would have to pay a minimum fee - 20% of the total amount of the vitamins. But they will also investigate the original price of these vitamins and charge me an amount on this. And I have to get a doctors letter from my area stating that I need these vitamins like a prescription. All of this I had no idea about at all. There is nothing on their website about this. .
So I told that I will not pay for the vitamins and will not get a doctors letter so they can send the pacakge back to Australia. Then she said I would have to sign letter confirming that I would like the pacakge to be sent back. She said she will send me the PDF letter to fill out and to send this back to her. Her email address is kategori3@dhl
Later that afternoon I checked my email and found that this letter stated that the package was mistakely posted to me and therefore must be sent back. These are lies! So I wrote her back and that I refuse to lie and will not sign this letter. I have not heard from her. I have no idea where the package is and I have not seen it at all since it arrived in Istanbul. Nothing has been refunded.”
