“Christmas Hamper ordered for delivery 22nd December 2022. It's a Christmas Hamper, therefore I needed it for Christmas. Not delivered 22nd. Receive a text message to say will now be delivered 23rd. Yesterday received a message to say would be delivered today. Rang the company who I ordered the Hamper from and they said it won't be delivered until 28th December now. Not sure when/or if I will receive the hamper. Disgusting service!!!”

“Xmas hampers ordered November did not arrive despite their countless communications. A greedy inept firm. Avoid at all cost and tell your suppliers to stop using them”

“Not even worth the one star but not possible to leave anything lower. Horrible, horrible service, shouldn't really even exist. Rogue company that takes your payments and then just doesn't bother. Next day delivery is still at their depot 5 days later. Hasn't even moved yet and customer services are the greatest waste of time and space. Very lengthy queues and then they cut you off. Please be very careful and avoid them! Will never ever use them again.....absolutely unreliable and uninterested after they receive payment.”

“I would give even negative points if I can. I took day off so that I am home to receive the parcel and driver never rang the bell and later just found a note that it will be delivered to some pickup place....the driver's name was Lukasz. They are just lazy to even ring the bell. Never ever using DPD again.”

“I urge you NOT to use DPD. I, like many others, have been waiting for a delivery for weeks. Initially i received texts to say that my items would be delivered the next day. This went on for a couple of weeks, then commutation has stop. I cannot get get through to anyone and I don't know where my goods are. Their customer service is appalling. I think the next stage is media involvement to highlight how very bad DPD are..”

“Our Xmas hamper to our daughter was never delivered and it was impossible to contact DPD either on line or by phone. This indicates a complete indifference to customers and I will suggest to the company despatching the hamper, that they should consider an alternative delivery company in future.”

“Would give zero stars if this option was available. Modern day Dick Turpins paid for express delivery (1-2days) still waiting on day 5 with no confirmed delivery date”

“This is the second parcel that DPD have not bothered to deliver. One from the 5th December and another from the 20th December. What a shambles of a Company. A total disgrace and should not be in business. This was meat for Christmas dinner and nothing. No contact whatsoever. They take on Parcelforce work due industrial action and let their regular customers suffer. My sympathy is with the shipping outlets that have to issue refunds due to DPD incompetence, and these are small businesses. Hang your heads in shame DPD, You are shocking and I truly hope that you go bust. Have emailed the CEO Elaine Kerr and she has not bothered to reply so shows how much she cares. Received an email from their complaints department promising contact within 5 days to discuss a resolution. Absolutely nothing. Am I surprised? Not at all. The Stoke depot are horrific and the staff do not deserve to be dealing with the public as their attitude is dire. I now check which courier a store/outlet uses before I buy and if it's DPD I say Thanks but NO THANKS.”

“Bought a phone from Apple, due to arrive 6 days ago. I get a daily message saying it will be out tomorrow, still not here. Customer service unable to help, can't give any further information. This is for my business, but it doesn't matter to them. Under resourced at all levels, the CEO is responsible and should take personal accountability for getting it so wrong, ruining business, health and Christmas for many.”

“Avoid this company. Been waiting for a parcel for 8 days, that was sent next day. Every day we get an e mail with a delivery slot, only to receive another later saying it was not possible to deliver your parcel. No explanation. Customer service was useless. Apologetic but unable to do anything regarding service recovery. They were unable to speak to local depot, and not possible to go to depot to collect in person. Avoid if possible.”

“DPD, Your company has the worst delivery services I've encountered both personally and official level. The most recent on being, first attempt your driver lying with an apparent attempt to deliver a parcel yesterday whereas he/she never turned up. And after being to your teams on the phone for over 30 mins yesterday I manage to re-direct the parcel today and a driver named Raivis who delivered the parcel to the wrong address and I am yet to find out which house the parcel was delivered to. Rubbish service and I will never recommend DPD to both of official and personal level to anyone.”

“Their trite excuses speak for themselves. This is a pestilential company causing anger, worry and stress to thousands of people at the worst time of the year. They should lose their licence to trade.”

“My dad relies on his Omnipods to control his diabetes. You sent an email saying you were delivering his Pods today. They waited in all day for me to receive an email saying sorry we missed you! Seriously, they have been in all day! You have some lazy drivers that can’t be bothered to deliver! Well done, when my dad relies on his Pods for his diabetes. You should be ashamed!!!!!!”

“I have been waiting for my parcel since 01 Dec 2022. I receive an almost daily message around 4.30pm advising 'We're sorry, your parcel has been delayed due to an unexpected issue' we'll deliver tomorrow time slots provided before 11am. I have been in regular contact with the company I ordered from, who say the parcel does not seem to have left the Nottingham depot yet. I feel sorry for the companies using DPD as they are making them look bad and their customers are having to contact them for as you get nothing from DPD. I did laugh when I saw the number of 5 star reviews and can only assume that 80% of them are not genuine reviews. I have now had to change the delivery address as it was originally going to a work address (so someone is always there to take it in). I have been told DPD are working 7 days a week, which means I have currently been waiting 3 weeks for my parcel. I would not have allocated them one star, but to enable to post my review it's the lowest I can give. Avoid if you can.”
