“Driver gave the parcel to a mysterious person called Sachina, not bothered to leave address so now the parcel is lost. DPD is not taking any responsibility for it. Incompetent and unprofessional, parcel lost but they got the money. I am disgusted. Do not use!”

“Paid extra to have an item from Currys delivered on a Saturday and the delivery got changed to a collection at Matalan. I did not ask for this, why the hell would I pay delivery then have it delivered to a shop?!? If I wanted to go to a shop I would have just drove to Currys! DPD say the request was made through their app but I don't have their app and have never used it. Bunch of lying scumbags, avoid at all costs.”

“My delivery was delayed three times in a row. I took a day off work to receive my parcel but nothing arrived. Embarrassing company, stay away from them for your own sanity.”

“I strongly suggest that you record calls to their Customer 'Services' and send them to DPDs chairman - it is time that he knows what idiots are running these departments and why this is losing them business. DPD UK is the pits !”

“I had a one hour delivery slot booked and was in. After the slot passed I received an email to say they missed me but left a card. I was in and no card received. Their tracking system included a photo of where they had left the card - completely wrong address and at least half a mile from where I live. The photo clearly showed the building name which was not the delivery address and not remotely near the correct street or post code. Incredible incompetence.”

“Next day delivery not next day now due to these cowboys. Spoken to a person at the depo and was assured it will be here and is on the van as I had taken a day off to sign for this. Really not happy. They really need to sort themselves out.”

“Tracking info for my parcel was deliberately incorrect. I was in all day (didn't leave the house), and received ONE of the TWO parcels I was expecting from DPD (from the same company, ordered the same day, and sent via yourselves at the same time.) 1 parcel arrived, the other was “delayed” until 7 and then it’s status was changed to “no-one to take delivery of the parcel, calling card left”. Again- I WAS IN THE HOUSE ALL DAY!!! No-one attempted delivery in the evening, no card was left. So why lie??? Considering one parcel had already been delivered, ‘Daryn’ didn’t leave a calling card at a different address, did he?? I’ve couriered myself, and this is just a courier’s attempt at avoiding responsibility. It’s bullsh*t. If there’s a problem delivering (Like someone forgot a parcel at the depot), just say you’ll deliver the next day! Don’t lie to your customers – it’s really annoying and it looks REALLY bad!”

“DPD must be trying to donate what is left of their business in the UK to the companies who deliver so much more reliably and who respect their customers and strive to satisfy them. DPD just have flashy vehicles and slogans and very little else. They are consistently inefficient, dishonest and do not seem the slightest bit interested in following up complaints (I assume they have so many looking at these reviews!). Their customer services department is a waste of time and very badly run judging from their disinterest and rudeness. I wish I had read these reviews first before trusting DPD with many deliveries that they seem to have messed up on so many occasions now. I have now changed delivery company and am much more confident now that DPD are no longer hindering my companies reputation through failed, 'lost' damaged and often late deliveries. DPD aer a shambles - I would suggest you avoid them and go with one of the better and more reliable companies who show respect to their customers.”

“'BOYCOTT DPD AND MAKE UK DELIVERIES GREAT AGAIN' DPD are just unable to deliver a reliable delivery service and they couldn't care less or so it would appear when you try to contact them. Sack all managers and start again !! especially their Customer 'Experiences' dept that are absolutely the worst ever....from the pathetic outgoing message that tells customers how to behave to their response to complaints and issues which is just insulting, disinterested, dishonest and rude. TERRIBLE AND DO NOT DESERVE YOUR TRUST !”

“Delivery messed up 3 times! Friday - I watch the driver pull up, decide he cant be bothered and then drive off. I complain and get told it'll be guaranteed delivery for Saturday. Saturday - Receive a message stating that due to an issue in my area I wont get my delivery. I call again and discover the issue was my parcel was left at the depot! I'm guaranteed delivery for Sunday. Sunday - No delivery. I call again, delivery upgraded, label printed etc but it just hasn't left the depot. No answer from depot, so now I have no option but wait to see if they'll attempt delivery Monday. I complained to the 'make it right' department on Saturday who claim they'll respond within 2 hours. They have not responded at all. FYI, the number to talk to a human being is 0121 275 0501”

“DPD Are totally useless.They are spiralling out of existence with an awful hit and mis, couldn't care less attitude and have proved to be very unreliable and dishonest in my experience of using them for 12 months as I have started up my business. I have complained on many occasions but have received nothing but apathy, rudeness and lies. I am now taking my business elsewhere and putting it in the hands of a company who can deliver and who respect their customers. DPD customer service department is the worst that I have ever come across - they just don't want to know and rudely make this very clear - even when talking to supervisors. I strongly suggest that you do not trust DPD with your custom.”

“Disgraceful Customer Services - If these calls are really monitored then the boss of this department should be sacked. Are they really trained to be so thick, rude and unhelpful ?? They are disinterested in resolving but quick to blame customer. Their supervisors (if you can reach one) are worse and seem intent on disrespecting their customers with very legitimate complaints. They are extremely confrontational and abusive. As for DPDs unreliable service this is just appalling and repeatedly unreliable. Their excuses are dishonest and very few seem to care enough to try to resolve the frequent issues that their useless broken systems create - Avoid at all costs !”
