“Interesting comparison of three stars given for working at DPD and 1 star (only because 0 stars not allowed) by 93.7% of reviewers here - speaks volumes !!! As previous reviewer has said - DPD remain anonymous and silent in lack of response. No engagement with customers at all !!”

“Feedback to DPD seems to be a complete waste of time and they don't seem interested. Instead use your efforts to report DPD to the suppliers who use them and inform them that you will no longer use them if they continue using DPD - much more effective”

“I have used a specialist company for over orders this year. Sadly they use DPD at present and I have kept a log on this. DPD have messed up on would you believe 70% of these deliveries. I have complained to DPD and got nowhere. I have informed my supplier that I can no longer use them if they insist on using DPD's inefficient and unreliable service. DPD have lost this supplier a considerable amount of money as a result.”

“Dreadful service. 2 deliveries in last month. Both have been messed up. No communication, waiting in all day and only find out its not coming when I have contacted them. Today has been the 3rd day they have promised me delivery and again it hasnt been sent out. They don't contact you or update the app until you contact them. Won't get anyone to call me ( last time I called it cost me £10) and won't tell me how to conplain”

“Another cock up by DPD 4th promised 'attempt' to deliver - funny as I was in for all apparent attempts - DPD are a dishonest and cynical company and I cannot understand why suppliers use them as they are so unreliable. Their customer services supervisors are the rudest, most aggressive and dismissal condescending bunch of liars and as for the first line ...at least they are not on the streets. Whoever is in charge of this useless bunch of fools needs sacking immediately - you could find a better staff if you picked them blindfolded at the Appleby Fair !! and as for that pathetic recorded message when you eventually get through to customer services - that really shows the calibre of the management and their lack of understanding and ideas. Treat your customers with respect and provide an efficient cost effective service is all you need to do like many of your competitors seem to manage !! DPD you are at rock bottom and should be avoided by all !!”

“THE WORST DELIVERY COMPANY EVER!!! AND IT IS ALL DOWN TO THEIR COMPLETELY USELESS COMMUNICATIONS. The delivery drivers may be great but the company they work for is diabolical. In my case I am waiting for the delivery of a new TV. I was in on the day well before the allotted delivery window. Then received a message that the delivery was delayed but would still be delivered. Needless to say the delivery didn't turn up. Not to worry they would deliver it the next day. Now this is where the problems start to occur. I was not going to be in the next day or the next or on Monday. So I would go onto their website and arrange for a delivery on Tuesday when I am going to be in. Unfortunately their rubbish website keeps pinging back the message 'We are currently experiencing issues updating your parcel information at this time. Please try again later. Well I have tried later - several times!!!! Well guess what happens next - yes you're right - DPD attempted to deliver the next day when I wasn't going to be in (but they would have known this if their website was working). Not to worry, they would attempt to deliver again the next day - WHEN I WASN'T GOING TO BE IN. I have continually tried to re-arrange delivery but to no avail. And yet again DPD tried to deliver on Friday when I wasn't in! and no doubt they will try again on Monday when I won't be in. I work and cannot get time off to wait for a delivery. DPD - Your website is useless and your telephone communications are even worse You may have great drivers but you are letting them down with your inept communication skills. These guys are the face of your company and you are leaving them to face irate customers who are being badly let down with the faceless communication sector of your company - SORT IT OUT. I will now have to drive the 40+ miles to my nearest DPD collection centre to collect a parcel that could easily have been delivered if your website was working properly and allowing me to change my deliver slot. How much money must this company waste in having to rearrange wholly avoidable re-deliveries!! DPD YOU ARE USELESS AND YOUR MANAGEMENT SHOULD BE SACKED”

“Got through to Customer Services after 35 mins wait only to hear a prerecorded ridiculous message from a Sinead Crooke damn nearly convincing me I was wasting my time complaining and mustn't be cross that DPD had screwed up again and wasted 2 days of mi annual leave chasing failed deliveries through their lies !! Give Sinead Crooke to DPD to deliver and they will probably lose her. Now that's Customer Service for you !”

“Good when they're good - beyond appalling when they're bad. Don't collect when they promise. Also if they're a bit busy they just lie that they tried to deliver when tracking shows the parcel hasn't even left the depot. Left in a safe place? Sure - if your idea of a safe place is on your doorstep visible to any passer by. Live chat? Hahahahahaha - a very poorly programmed bot. One star is too much.”

“Shocking Service Bought an item through Curry’s online paid extra for it to be delivered today at my local Curry’s store received a email from DPD yesterday stating the parcel would be available for collection today at the store from 12 noon. Went to the store at 13:15 and no delivery had be made went home phoned DPD and they informed me some cock and ball story that the delivery lorry’s had arrived late at the depot and because of Christmas demand they would now not be delivering my parcel today what really pissed me off is that they could not even be bothered to text or email me informing me that the parcel would now not be delivered until tomorrow so I wasted my time and effort travelling to the store for nothing this isn’t the first time I have had issues with this company delivering a parcel.”

“Still no delivery, 9 days have been passed, it was booked as next day delivery ——————————————————- Update: Saturday, 2 Dec (day 9) ——————————————————- Shame on you DPD! They have missed delivery on 1st Dec. So I have rescheduled it for 2Dec, because they can't do by themselves, they expect customer to take action if they missed the delivery. No 1 hour window or any no other update given, called DPD and asked why I haven't received the update and they told me that they can't deliver today, now this has to be on Monday, I was late to reschedule my delivery, They are now holding two parcels, one from Amazon and other from mobiles.co.uk Parcel now in DPD depot and I can't go there and pick up. Again my another Sunday wasted DPD sucks!”

“As a driver I would recommend not to use dpd as they bully their drivers and force them to work under the most intense conditions that not even a prisoner endures, if you finish at twelve you cannot debrief till two and if you finish at twelve you have to wait if there is a five o’clock collection days are 13 hours long most of the time and you are getting paid for what you collect and deliver at the most of two pound a stop please do not use so the government will do something about these thugs”

“I totally agree with the last comment. All these bad reviews highlighting very similar problems and attitudes from DPD again and again whilst DPD remains anonymous,unaccountable and silent. It is very obvious that they do not care about reliability, professionalism,honesty or respect towards their customers and clients. They have the most condescending and rude Customers Services department ever who can only resort to lies and insults in their pitiful attempts to fudge over the very common failings of DPD's useless 'service'. This company does not deserve your trust or money - they are unethical, irresponsible and frankly useless. Suppliers should not associate themselves with this bunch of losers and they will lose many customers if they do. Also why would any individual trust this bunch with their valued parcels with such awful reviews and reports of customers experiences. Parcel delivery should not be a lottery and no company that disrespects it's customers (and itself) should survive. There are many better choices out there.”

“I challenge Sinead Crooke to explain her truly abysmal rude, dishonest, inefficient and confrontational 'Customer Services' department on this site. They are cynical and the 'supervisors' seem to be thicker than the first level (if you have the patience to wait 40 minutes to get through !!) What is the point of this useless department. There are few businesses where shutting it's Customer Services Department would do them more good - this says a lot about DPD who were once quite a good service ...they are now totally unreliable, dishonest and disinterested - AVOID !!”

“No delivery, 8 days have been passed, it was booked as next day delivery ——————————————————- Update: Friday, 30th Nov (day 7) ——————————————————- Still waiting for delivery, DPD didn’t deliver parcel after one hour window given, updated delivery status as “Delivery refused, duplicate order”, cancelled deliver at last minute, he was in my area, called DPD and mobiles.co.uk couple of times, nothing happened, DPD rescheduled delivery for 1 Dec. ——————————————————- Update: Saturday, 1 Dec (day 8) ——————————————————- Shame on you DPD! Given one hour delivery window, was waiting for them, received following messages driver is running little late, will deliver shortly Couldn't be delivered, premises were closed I was home waiting for them, called mobiles.co.uk, looking for Sophie but couldn't reach to her, no help given except they contacted to DPD and re-arranged delivery for 2 Dec In the meantime contracted director of DPD customer care, received reply promptly stating that one of her exec team will handle this issue. Received an email from exec team, asking me to wait until Monday (worst case scenario) if still I haven't receive my parcel then they will do something. Again my Saturday wasted, DPD sucks!”
