“They continual fail to met the delivery slots that they set. It appears that they have a route they stick to and if you are at the end of that route and they don't have time to get to you - too bad and it happens over and over again presumably until it's less busy and they can get to you. It's a terrible system. Many failed timeslots later they still haven't delivered my package.”

“I have had the worst experience with yourselves. I have received a message stating my item had been delivered to me today when I never received it. contacted DPD who simply said they did not know why their driver had not uploaded any proof of feluvery and or GPS location for delivery and they had no idea why the driver uploaded delivery status as been delivered and what had happened to my parcel. they did not even seem to know who the driver that had my parcel was and simply said because it stated delivered to my address there was nothing they could do and were not going to investigated which means my item could have been stolen, lost, delivered to someone else and they simply don't care. I would never recommend and am looking at all the options I have, including legal, to find out where my item is and get this sorted.”

“Awful, awful truly awful service. Messing with people's lives, having people wait in for days to not recieve their parcel. One think is certain DPD categorically DO NOT DELIVER! I have screenshot evidence of my phone with a 1 hour time slot, the driver was in my area and instead of delivering to me he was getting further and further away. Customer service is non existent and offer absolutely no help. I was tracking the driver for 3-4 hours waiting, he delivered 28 stops in this time. I currently deliver for amazon and 99% of our drivers deliver 20 stops an hour, DPD is terrible in comparison!”

“Absolutely the worse global shipping company on Earth! I have ordered from Amazon.com in the USA and Thailand and have been receiving my parcels in 7-10 days via USPS, ECMS Express, SF Express, DHL, or UPS. I am now in Japan for two months and ordered some items I need ASAP. Amazon shipped two orders via DPD. I thought: who is this company? Well both parcels have yet to be delivered after 2.5 weeks! The Amazon tracking is stuck at 2 days after shipping, with no updates. If I take the DPD tracking number and try to track on their site it says the number cannot be found. One parcel to Japan was shipped via ECMS Express and I got that one in 7 days. I CONTACTED AMAZON AND TOLD THEM DO NOT USE DPD EVER AGAIN TO SHIP ANYTHING TO ME IN JAPAN!”

“If I could give zero stars I would do. My order for a much urgently needed mobile phone should have arrived next day delivery on Dec 4th despite being shown despatched it never arrived and since then never been re despatched but showing as delayed due to unexpected due an unexpected issue. I have rang every morning for updates and on Friday I was advised my parcel is now missing and to go back to the seller for a refund or replacement. I did exactly what they recommended, but that’s another issue, only to receive an email from DPD that my parcel was due to be delivered Saturday- no show, then Sunday-no show and now today Monday 12th Dec still no show. The latest update is delivery anytime up until Thursday. I cannot help but feel the useless delivery company is fobbing me off and having a laugh at my expense. So before you decide to use “Diabolical Parcel Delivery “ have a rethink and save yourself the stress and upset.”

“I received a text/ email 8/12/22 stating that my parcel would be delivered on 8/12/22. I waited in all day and then got an email stating that the driver could not locate my house. I went on line and chose for it to be delivered to a local store/ pick up point. A further email told me it would be delivered to the pick up point on 09/12/22 but there was no trace it. A further email stated that it would be delivered on 10/12/22, but no sign of it. A further email that it would be delivered on 11/12/22 but again no sign of it. Now the tracking just says it is at a depot miles away in Stoke. This company is inept and this is not the first bad experience. You cannot get hold of anybody to speak to and the on line chat service is an automated machine. Useless. How come so many other couriers can pull off a decent service but not these jokers? Date of experience: 11 December”

“Delivery paid for and expected Friday. Due to "technical reasons" delayed till Saturday, then same reason Sunday. Messaged with a time on Sunday morning then cancelled due to "technical reasons" for Monday when I'm back at work 😑. Very hard to contact and communication of cancellation not received by email until 5.30 in the afternoons. Really disappointed.”

“Absolute bunch of clowns. They said they have attempted a second delivery today, I’ve been in all day working on my car at the front of the house. No failed delivery card. Conflicting messages on their website saying it’s been held at their Depot + out for delivery + at the collection point, went to the collection point, no F**ing parcel. Please please everyone and businesses do not use DPD. They are a crock of sh*t..”

“They have had my parcel at the local depot for 4 days. Every day they say it's going to be delivered and every night I get an email saying there's an issue and it will not be delivered to the next day, it's like living through groundhog Day. Customer support is absolutely terrible, never pick up the phone, never answer emails. I will never buy from a company again who use these for their delivery.”

“Ordered 2nd Dec via Prime for 6th Dec delivery.Parel at Hinckley, then Morley for a few days delayed due to unexpected issues. Each day they updated to say ot would be delivered that day. I contacted seller to chase it up, they then promised delivery today, but now have said tomorrow. Apparently the parcel took a trip down to Birmingham last night 90 miles from me, but is now on ots way back to Morley again, about 15 miles away. I feel so sorry for small businesses who have been caught up in this dreadful service.They also lies that they had tried to deliver Monday 5th and that I had rescheduled.”

“Utter clowns!! A next-day delivery has still not been made. Its almost 3 weeks with no eta - The current status of my parcel now reads 'Your parcel has been delivered and received by DELIVERED ' Their Live chat agents Jenifer & Neha purposely ended the live chat by pretending not to have received a response even though I typed several messages which shows just how useless they are. I just want some answers and so far I am not getting anywhere with this pos company.”
