“Despite having been to the address earlier this year, delivery was delayed twice due to the driver being “unable to find the property”. Poor service, lack of communication, unreliable and unfriendly.”

“Apalling service. Paid for next day delivery on Monday, on Wednesday driver got to our road gate and decided there was no one in, Arranged safe place to leave parcel online received email from DPD promising delivery on Thursday. Parcel then sent to depot 200 miles away. Finally delivered on the following Monday but not to safe place nominated instead left in box by road. My advice reat DPD as the delivery service of last resort.”

“We had a delivery of 3 boxes which the DPD delivery guy left at the front door of our apartment building. He rang in to tell us that he needs help bringing them up which was fine, however when my husband went downstairs - DPD got him to sign and said later..and headed out. He claimed it was 'front door' service only which is ridiculous. We've ordered bulk items from other delivery companies that have given us front door service which is literally our front door. Had my husband not been home, I would've been stuck with 3 boxes outside my apartment building and no way of taking them upstairs because of my pregnancy.”

“Absolute shower of s**t company. Paid for next day delivery and it didn't turn up. When I queried why (having been on hold in a queue for the best part of an hour) I was told it was because they had "issues" at the depot. Well thanks for letting me know and wasting a day off work sitting at home. Refused refund.”

“Such a useless courier company with terrible customer service, I've had issues with them several times now. Today's case included giving me conflicting information, changing the date at very short notice and not following simple instructions. I then received zero help from their customer service (who gave me the same bit of information twice even though I already explained that it didn't solve my query) and then she ended the web chat without giving me any help at all. I asked to be able to speak to a person to solve my query and the curt response I received was 'No' I don't know why good companies use them as couriers to be honest, the general themes of these reviews are all awful!”

“Waited in for my slot and ‘Ryan’ didn’t turn up, then had a text saying they tried to deliver, definitely didn’t. Just couldn’t be bothered I expect. Shameful!”

“Failed to deliver my parcel and they were unable to track where it was. Eventually they had to notify the supplier that they had lost it. Virtually no customer service, no response to phone calls and live chat line that was manned by individuals who appeared to have no access to any useful information.”

“NOT RECOMMENDED! Ordered something a month ago and my parcel should have been delivered about 1 week after I placed the order. Through their app I requested the parcel to be delivered to a local shop but this has not been done. I tryed to track the partcel, but parcel number not recognised. Went to depot to find out that my parcel was delivered at another address and that someone has signed for it. Basically, I ended up with no parcel, money taken and no refund. Shame!”

“Twice they came with 2 different parcels, saying that didn't have contact information and couldn't deliver the package. Twice I haven't been delivered the item to my location on the day it was meant to be. Now I have to go again to pick it up from somewhere else”

“No attempt to deliver to correct address, left somewhere else and could not provide address for me to locate. Luckily person came to my address, they could not understand why left there as plenty of near neighbours. To illustrate further the poor effort, I was in waiting for delivery as it was notified online as in half an hour. Then notification that delivered! There were instructions on box where to leave it if out - but that only works if taken to correct address! Sloppy and unprofessional experience. Box damaged as well, some contents missing.”

“'Lost' my XBOX Console. Impossible, had 2 labels on it. Didn't even apologise or email when promised. I had to do all the chasing. I hope whichever of their employees at the Smethwick depot stole it, enjoys it.”

“Stayed in yet again for a delivery that did not arrive because the driver could not find my location. We have deliverys from various couriers everyday and they have no problems finding us. DPD are a joke, I suspect my parcel just got bumped because the driver Dean was running late and just couldn't be bothered. Of all the courier companies we use DPD is by far the most unreliable and if you try to contact a real person you just end up on hold indefinitely. Its like trying to work with the Muppet Show.”

“Should have had my parcel today, instead a text AT 3.15pm to say that it won't be here until Wednesday. No explanation. No regard for the fact that I waited in all day. I will never deal with a firm again that uses dpd and I will post why I won't.”

“Horrible service, AVOID. Drivers don't even bother trying to deliver a parcel, they just automatically say that no one was at home a.k.a. parcel was refused, even though I was at home all the time waiting for the parcel and no one rang the door... They I tried calling DPD but obviously no picked up... This happened multiple times already. Anyway AVOID AVOID AVOID”

“I spent the afternoon waiting in and the parcel didn't arrive. Not able to get through to anyone on the phone, despite holding for over 45 minutes. No update on website. No response to my query sent via the website. No apology. No parcel. Completely useless.”

“Paid for delivery on specific date. Didn't get one hour window emailed. Tracking said item on way to depot. Rang depot who insisted it was out with the driver, but could not give a time. Liars!!!!!! The parcel has been lost by them. I don't appreciate being lied to.”
