I was expecting a Vodafone package on the Thursday-then after some phone calls I received email to say it would be Friday after 12 pm and that i would have hour slot confirmation on the Friday after 11 am by email. That happened and i was told between 1.30 pm-2.30 pm. It arrived not much past 1.30 and the tracking was accurate. The delivery guy was very polite. I can only give this 3 stars though because it was a day late and i had paid the extra for quick delivery.

Advised that delivery delayed due to problem in my area (Buckingham). Now advised goods are in Inverness, 300 miles away. Hardly in my area. What a joke.

Fast courier service but frequently delivering my parcels to several streets away from my house, to people I have never met. I wouldn't mind but I have been home on all occasions to accept delivery.

I would buy Andy a bottle of single malt for his funeral and disperse it on his grave but I would let it pass through my kidneys first

Normally can’t fault them as all the delivery drivers have been good in all aspects however with today’s delivery I can now understand why people say they are rubbish. Despite the tracking showing as nearby my parcel never arrived to my address - it showed as having been delivered and signed for by GTF - which I took to stand for ‘go to fuck’. On hold to customer services for 30mins only for them to say oh the delivery guy would call me back in 10/15 mins but did not relay back to them where my parcel was. The delivery guy eventually turns up in the 10mins with my parcel and claims that his tracking system was at fault And it was the same for all customers. I did not believe his excuse considering his demeanour and also the fact that he was much later than the time slot. Customer services not so good either as what happens if parcel is missing and my personal details etc - oh the delivery guy will call you.

Mobile phone delivery scheduled for Monday - delivery to work. All good... in theory. DPD try to deliver early as they are in the area on Saturday. Nice idea, but obviously not the requested day. I get an email on Monday saying my request to have my delivery date moved to Tuesday has been accepted. This was news to me. I didn't make this request, which was worrying. Turns out it was an error at the distribution office. I'm assured the parcel will be delivered on Tuesday. I'm given the super useful time slot of 06:00 - 22:00. Since I don't work 16 hour shifts, as far as information goes, that offered zero help. Courier service can't be an easy job, but many complaints could be mitigated by making communications more clear and helpful.

‘I was expecting a really important time critical legal document (from Spain to Plymouth,UK) yesterday, the package of which was described as ‘out for delivery’ on the online tracking system. All very reassuring I thought, until 4pm and it still hadn’t arrived. I spoke to a lovely gentleman from customer services who acknowledged it was on the van and he would contact the driver, which he did. Apparently the driver had ‘finished for the day’. I was offered an up to 10.30am slot the next day, which I accepted. The next day, I keep an eye on the DPD tracking system, which at 10am still did not show that the package is even ‘out for delivery’. I was absolutely beside myself and rang customer services, preparing myself for a drive to Exeter depot (from Plymouth) to get the package myself if I had to. The lady from customer services was an absolute darling (I was in quite a state), and she reassured me that the package was on the van and would be with me between 10.27 and 11.27. I noticed there was no change in the tracking system, which I felt would have helped. Anyway, the delivery man did turn up and acknowledged he had a call yesterday from customer services, but ‘was at Tamerton Foliot’. I was most polite, but wanted to say (in a very loud voice) ‘So what, it’s only 3minutes away from here!’ As if reading my thoughts he said that his gadget showed ‘hold back’, but I’m sure that a call from customer services, balanced with a modicum of common sense and willing could have overridden this, to ensure the package got to me on time and as contracted. Interestingly, after delivery, the tracking system updated to show ‘out for delivery’ and ‘delivered’, which kind of defeated the object. I think it is fair to say that I will absolutely NOT be voting this delivery driver for DPD driver of the year, but was really impressed with the kindness and empathy shown by customer service. Thank you generally DPD for getting this package to me; there are many many people who are relieved today as a result :-)

Very poor customer service (based only on the one man I spoke to last week). When I phoned to ask about a missed delivery his tone was very abrupt and not helpful in the slightest. Re the messaging that a package will arrive. Whilst helpful, it doesn't allow for the recipient to choose a time we will be home, so we either keep on missing deliveries or else rearrange it each day! The system would not change the address to my work address. And it also never tells me where the package is coming from, so I have no idea if it is small enough to be left in a porch cupboard etc. So again; really not much use.
