“I sent two parcels on the 30th of December. In the shop, they didn't quite know what to do and took them ages to sort the delivery out. They gave me 4 tracking numbers for 2 parcels, and they didn't talk very well about DPD. One parcel was returned two weeks later, fair enough. Of the other one, I still know nothing. It's 31st of January today.”

“For package 01505248873906, DPD tried to deliver once but didn't even ring the neighbor's doorbell. Then they decided to return it, and no they do not respond to either customer or supplier. Unbelievable how lazy the delivery people are, I recommend never use DPD again, please just respond how to get this package delivered.”

“The worse company I have ever dealt with, you are blocked every way possible when it goes wrong, which it normally does from my history. I will never entertain this company again, when I have managed to get though it seems if you ask a question that’s not straightforward the phone goes down, at one time I got shouted at and then the phone was slammed down, it has stressed me out so much they made a really bad mistake with my delivery which was totally their fault and they don’t want to know, the chat is useless I get more response from talking to a brick wall, overall I feel like I’ve been robbed and abused by this company, please don’t use them”

“Box with an obvious and massive hole in it dumped quickly at my door to ensure I didn't have the chance to question anything. An office chair with no wheels, bolts, boltcovers, screws, instructions. Refused to take it back until we arrange that ourselves with sellers. Driver was supposed to check van and get back to us but he didn't and no call either as to why not. This is our second bad experience with DPD this month.”

“DPD sent a text message telling when the delivery will take place. I waited at home. Then received a text saying that the driver missed me. I was still at home. This happens regularly with DPD and I had enough of their lies, so I tried to contact them via the website. Surprise surprise there is no way to contact them or log a complaint. No wonder the drivers lie - they do not have to be accountable as customers can't get in touch with DPD anyway. Aweful business. Avoid!”

“I paid for next day delivery and it still hadn’t come 4 days later, so I decided to have it at my pick up shop, they didn’t delivery to the shop the day they said they would and the customer service took 1 hour to answer”

“DPD have gone above and beyond to offer services that no one else does, with exceptional efficiency. Ability to not deliver packages: 10/10 I have never known any delivery company be so proficient in this area. Usually my packages arrive, on time and undamaged - but this is when I use other delivery companies. Not DPD. They have managed to devise a way to ensure the package never arrives. Not leaving delivery cards: 10/10 Another area of expertise for which DPD takes gold. Their email correspondence lets them down slightly, because by email I'm informed that my parcel is undelivered because there was no one in. This is, however, completely eclipsed by the lack of delivery note. No delivery note indicated that they didn't even bother showing up to my house - just amazing! Well done DPD! Cultivating frustration through no contact: 10/10 This is the area in which DPD really shine. You can't talk to them! It's genius. Never has one single company had such an amazing affect on my frustration levels. I just don't know how they do it! It appears that they've devised a clever way of not advertising their phone number, and the number that we can find is an automated IVR that doesn't include an option to speak to a real person. If you are looking for a service that has the ability to completely remove a parcel from the face of the earth and then never speak to you about it, DPD is the company for you! Other delivery companies will simply deliver parcels and allow communication about deliveries - it's so tired and mundane, try something new! Be more like DPD.”

“Your drivers are beyond lazy. Waiting for an important parcel today of course I’m going to be home as we’re in a pandemic so where else could I be. No attempt to even knock on or leave in safe place and won’t be back until tomorrow. I’m so unhappy with your company it’s unreal.”

“I sent a parcel on December, 30th. It still hasn't reached its destination and I was given a tracking number that is not recognised. When I tried to contact DPD for advice, there was no way to reach them. It's almost a month later and I still don't know where it's gone.”

“THEY DONT EVEN DESERVE 1 STAR BUT MINUS 1000, SUCH A BAD EXEPERIENCE. Words fail me regarding this company. They are incompetent and unreliable. Guys DO NOT USE DpD they are such cowboys! My luggages did not arrive at my destination and has now been missing for TWO MONTHS. Absolute nightmare I am still thinking that I am dreaming, I never met a company in uk sucks as DpD. I have spoken to they Customer Service after numerous conversation times via emails since my miss-placed luggages and they has absolutely no information for me as to the whereabouts of my luggages! I find it completely unprofessional how in our world today with the security and technology available to you as a large shipping company can completely miss-place baggage. NEVER AGAIN 🤬 The total value of my belongings inside my luggages is more than the £100 that DpD are offering to pay out. Another word for theft is Dpd!”

“Unable to deliver my parcel multiple times, saying I'm not home, I haven't left the house all week due to lockdown? Customer service is useless at helping me, this is the second time they have been terrible, never had a good experience, they are just lazy, and I can't choose who delivers the stuff I buy online but I would rather hermes that these incompetent people”

“Waiting for delivery of a knife. The original driver wouldn’t leave the knife in my safe place as it was a knife - disappointing but fair enough. Rearranged for the following day at my place of work which is a small private hospital. Got my “you’re next” text from DPD. Then got a text saying sorry we missed you. Missed me?! You cant miss an open hospital with a car park and an obvious main entrance!! The guy even took a picture of a wall outside the hospital with a view of the car park entrance and a car coming out of it. NO ATTEMPT WHATSOEVER to deliver the parcel. Basically appalling. I’ve always rooted for DPD and always impressed with their delivery until now. I paid extra for the online knife store to get the item to me quickly - what a waste of money thanks to DPD. You cannot leave feedback on the DPD website either.”

“Wenn ich ein Produkt online kaufe und der Versand über diese Firma erfolgt, bin ich wütend, weil es sehr schlecht ist, sie haben keine offenen Büros in der Nähe, sie anzurufen ist sehr schlecht, wir zahlen die Kosten für den Anruf und niemand antwortet, dummes System und schlechte Firma, ich storniere jetzt jeden Kauf eines Produkts Es wird mir von dieser dummen Firma zugesandt.”

“For 30 years we have opened at 10am. DPD always try to deliver at 8am meaning that anything sent to us is returned to the sender, we try to warn people not to ship to us using DPD, it causes everyone in our building so many problems, we open to a "Sorry We Missed You" card most mornings. We have made many compalints but will DPD try to deliver at 8am, the shocking this is, its the same driver. How they became such a big company is a mystery, its terrible service.”
