“The company's service was extremely disappointing. Initially, I was informed that the parcel would be collected from my home, but the driver never showed up. To my dismay, the status was marked as collected, which was completely false. When I reached out to customer service, they assured me that a new driver would be assigned. However, this never happened, leaving me feeling frustrated and helpless. Despite their earlier promise, the company now informs me that the collection couldn't take place today and insists that I reschedule the order for another day. Moreover, they cannot guarantee that the collection will occur on the next attempt. It appears that it's quite common for customers to wait for days for their parcels to be collected, which is incredibly inconvenient and stressful. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company to anyone. I strongly advise paying extra and using a different courier service that can provide reliable and efficient service.”

“I waited in all afternoon. The driver texted and said I wasn't in and would come back Monday. I ran outside - no sign of any delivery van. He lied. I paid for today delivery. DPD say they will deliver on Monday - when I won't be here.”

“They decide when they want to deliver. Changes are difficult. Whem they phone, we have to answer at that moment; response to SMS they don´t do it...”

“In one month and a half I have experienced only bad things with this company. Literally looking at the drivers how they approach the door without knocking and ignoring a big A4 paper on the door that has my phone number as well. Had to spend £6 to call them and make a complain to have my order dropped at a local store and pick it up myself after paying for next day delivery. Just sent a parcel yesterday to a friend and the driver said he couldn't find his adress. He got an email saying his parcel was dropped to a local store, when my friend went there, no parcel was delivered. He later gets another email saying that as per requested, his parcel will be delivered the next day to his address. This company it's a total joke, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It's a waste of time and money. When I've called and complained about the driver not even knocking at the door, I was told there is a picture with the front door and my reply was, does a picture proves he knocked? I was looking at him, he did not touched my door, he was there and he left.”

“Unreliable, useless, stupid... I miss words to qualify DPD. Impossible to get sound information about my parcel delivery (the guy on the phone will say something different from the website, calling the day after an another guy will say something else...). Run away if you can.”

“I have received an alert stating that I had missed my delivery. This is blatant lies as I was in the house all day and there is no sign of the driver attempting the delivery on my security cameras. It astounds me that these lies are sent out when I had an earlier alert stating that the driver was running late. Please get your house in order as this has now ruined my weekend as I needed this parcel on the day stated. I have also reported this non delivery and lie to SKY tv who had sent the parcel.”

“They are liars who haven’t even attempted to deliver my sky parcel. 5 hours after delivery time it still hasn’t turned up with them claiming the driver was running behind. Spoke to someone via chat and she was just as much of a liar by promising to phone my driver and tell to get his skates on which she clearly never did.”

“Boycott this company. They hire self-employed, probably they pay them peanuts and you end up having people asking to help you deliver your boxes in case they are too big cause they don't even want to bother bringing your stuff to your door. This company is a joke...”

“Always been good in the past but seen a different side now things went wrong and just may as well talk to a wall than their customer service I sent a Parcel and paid them £15.45 for next day delivery, I then followed the instructions to take it to the nearest post office and got a receipt from them to confirm it then 4 days later the receiver is asking where it is and the tracking numbers are not working so I phone DPD and was told it wasn't sent as the address, town and postcode wasn't valid when it was all fine and told to take it up with the post office as all the tracking numbers are not valid I went to the post office and they said it was still there as DPD had refused to take it so no idea why when you was paid to take it but really poor service that it wouldn't of come back to me ever if I hadn't of gone looking for it myself and could of a lost a few hundred pounds just by following your drop off instruction Anyway I take the parcel back from the post office and take it to the receiver myself as it was a birthday gift and was meant to have been delivered so didn't want to let them down like DPD did to me and then phoned DPD but totally useless customers service, they said all the different sets of numbers that DPD had sent me when I paid them are not valid and without a valid number they cannot help I then say I just want a refund so they said it's got to be done on the live chat only so try that but needs a reference number to start it and shows mine are invalid so I phone them again and they give me the reference number on the phone to put in which I did and still invalid then they say they cannot assist further again? Now looking for a way to talk to someone there and get a refund for the service I payed for and they didn't provide Used DPD many times over the years and always been great but wouldn't again after this experience as I cannot even get an explanation from them about what went wrong”

“Their driver didn’t even ring my doorbell when he tried to deliver my parcel. I have ring doorbell he didn’t even come to my door. The customer service is absolutely shocking you manage to speak to someone who you can barely understand or who can understand you and just get told there’s nothing we can do. Get a phone call from the dunstable depot answer it it cuts off trying to ring back sends you to two different depots then try again and it tells you it’s closed. I will never use this service again or any company that use them to deliver parcels. Unpick couldn’t give no stars”

“What an awful company. I was out when an unexpected Saturday delivery was attempted. The message was it would be taken to a pickup location, one that is not convenient, but has in fact gone back to their depot in Reading. I then had the pleasure (not!) of using their chat system to attempt a redirection to the correct address which they pointedly refused to do as their systems can't do that (that was after the first advisor just ended the chat). Instead if they fail on the first delivery it will go to a pick-up centre within a TEN mile radius. Not for me. Have cancelled the delivery with the supplier and advised unless they change from DPD I shall never use them again.”
