“They are the worst delivery company ever. They texted me last Sunday that my parcel would be delivered in the morning. Shortly after, I received another text that they were sorry that the driver missed my home and left my parcel for collection with some local shop. The parcel, I was informed, was to be waiting there for collection until 19 August. Upon checking the location of that shop, it appeared that it was 15 minutes on foot from me, so I was expected to carry a heavy parcel for 15 minutes back home, although I paid for home delivery with my order. On top of that, today I was able to arrange a collection with the help of a friend, but when he attended the shop, he was told that the parcel was not there. Where is the parcel? No one knows. In conclusion: I wasted money, time, and health due to the stress associated with this issue. If you want to have peace of mind, avoid this company at any cost.”

“Had a message and a picture; that looked like it was taken in the delivery vehicle that parcel was delivered…… no parcel. Did a thumbs down on the how did we do and said not delivered and in a couple of minutes the picture of delivery vanished? Not happy paid extra for fast delivery, thought picture was supposed to show the door it was left at ???? Bad company will change my mind on buying something if this is the company delivering :(”

“Delivery drivers have a tough life, so I stand in solidarity with them. My grievance is with the DPD system which gave me 32 minutes notice. Received an email whilst doing my normal morning routine to inform me that my parcel would be delivered 32 minutes later, an email I didn't see until I'd finished using the bathroom, by which time it was too late - a 'sorry we missed you card' was already in the letterbox. No option to choose a redelivery time slot - because we're human - because we have busy lives. Heaven forbid a customer should need to use the bathroom whilst they're waiting for their delivery.”

“DPD sent a mesaage that my IKEA parcel will be delivered today 12th August between 10.14-11.14am by Driver called Olando. I am sitting here in my living room waiting. Only for me to receive another message at 10.33am "sorry we missed you" that your driver Olando was here but no one was in. What a bit LIE from the pit of hell. Not a knock, a buzz at my door!!”

“Douglas Wesley the delivery driver couldn't be bothered to knock on the door Douglas is an idiot Douglas thought it ok to post through the window, Douglas is a pillock, douglas has no respect for people and their property, Then DPD cant be bothered to call to find out my complaint DPD so I guess DPD is as much an idiot as Douglas. turns out DPD dont have complaints department, turns out DPD doesn't actually care”

“Avoid DPD they just dump your package wherever and then you have the task of speaking to the "s" customer service who just hand up when it gets to complicated. try employing somebody that can actually speak English DPD if your going to trade in English countries”

“Item was damaged and no compensation. The most difficult claiming system in the world and to investigate they need 7 days, its the waiting game and they hope the customer get fed up & give up on the claim. Always there is an excuse. Consignment number 6867669452”

“Horrible. 2 times saying delivery attempt unsuccessful even though someone was home all day both times. Horrible application. Package redirection not working at all. No confirmations or notifications. Very late and useless customer support. I never bought anything that was not via internet for more than 2 years and never had any issue. Would never ever chose DPD in my life. Legit scam!”

“This is the worse delivery company you can deal with. I order from a company and they sent the parcel with DPD. However, the driver missed my delivery, I reached out to the company asking why it has been missed and how can we solve it as I will not be in the city tomorrow. He kept saying sorry without providing any solutions and he said that he cannot communicate with the parcel shipping department. I believe this is the worse service and customer service ever. The agent was ignoring my questions. The agent confirmed that it is the driver's fault. I asked him since it is the driver's fault can you please get it delivered today he kept saying no and cannot do that as he does not work in that department. He could have called the department and got it sorted. I asked for the department number and he gave me the customer service number I am very very disappointed with the service. Before I order from any company in the future if they are delivering through PDP I will not order. I feel even 1 star is too much for the service that I have not received.”

“DPD sent me a nice message saying "sorry you weren't in" and a photo of the front door to my flats. It would have been even nice if they had actually rung the buzzer for my flat, as I had been waiting in for them.”

“Very terrible! Just terrible!!! Your parcel either gets damaged, delayed or returned for no justified reasons. Tried two times and this third time for the benefit of doubts but was still not surprised. Never again! Please do better DPD!!! I need to be refunded of the money I spent on this label since item was returned back!!!”

“Item not received, second item in four days. Their theme tune should be, "Oops I did it again".”

“Disgusting company. Money grabbing and zero help. Messed up a parcel being sent to my dying friend and never sorted it. I can never get that back and let my friend know someone cared. Ended up receiving the parcel back after 2 months when it was too late. Tried to claim the postage back and they just passed me from pillar to post claiming I’d sent it to the wrong department or other false claims over and over again to get away with it. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY!”

“Parcel left in pouring rain, damaged and then they don’t accept any formal complaints only I house. The removed their own photo that proved they left it in the rain to cover up what they did. From the looks of other complains they are going down hill so avoid if it’s anything of value”

“Expecting a delivery today. My son was waiting in the front room for longer than the one hour slot allocated. Just received a text 1min after the end of the 1 hour, saying no one was in. I have large bay windows you can clearly see when someone walks up the garden path. No one walked up the path, no one knocked on the door or rang the door bell. Not even a "we missed you" slip was left. Their service has gone completely down hill. If they're not careful they're going to tank their reputation even further.”
