“Never had an issue before, however this time iv been waiting for a winter coat I desperately need since 8th Dec. It’s at my local depot in Devon ‘waiting for next available driver’ however iv seen them delivering daily and never an update on my parcel! Checked about collection..was last Wednesday so we thought we’d take a 40 mile road trip to pick it up. Thank god I checked first to see what I.d I’d need as they had changed it to pick up from today!! (Saturday 17th) Today I checked and it’s changed to pick up from Monday 19th!! No doubt that will change also on Monday so I don’t even have option of collecting it myself!!!! 😡 Also no way of contacting them as they don’t answer! Pretty disgusted with their service right now!”

“AVOID IF YOU CAN - Not fit for purpose! How difficult is it for a parcel delivery company to ... deliver parcels? The webchat and phone lines are all based in India - and I take exception when someone in a call centre on the other side of the world tells me to be patient implying that you're being unreasonable. So patronising! Yodel state a delivery window of 3-5 days. Mine was due a month ago, tracking says today, but this has happened in the past and then suddenly switches to next day when it's 9pm and still however many stops away. Unfortunately, you're not even top of the list the following day, so you spend another day babysitting the door as they either leave somewhere totally unsecure or take it away so you have to rearrange and the circus starts all over again. I usually make every effort to avoid YODEL, but when Idon't always have the option. I have never had a parcel delivered undamaged and/or on time. This organisation should be utterly ashamed of how incompetent it is.”

“My main concern is that their app is useless,not updated..The only ..sole contact with Yodel in Peterborough is the drivers number which is not reachable”

“They delivered my parcel to the wrong building and kept saying oh our sat Nav supports the location! There are a few blocks with the same postcode and the picture they have sent me shows a completely different entrance hall to my building. Still didn’t accept this and disconnected the chat! So so disgraceful and passing me back to the sender! Just admit you have delivered it to the wrong address and now it’s lost! expensive pair of trainers and it’s gone now!! PLEASE AVOID AT ALL COSTS”

“You and Sara mart are robbing scam sites you've lost 90% of everything I've ordered customer service none existent waiting times ridiculous can't speak to anyone tracking status says delivered but nothing has arrived or any cards left to say delivered. Your drivers are stealing people's orders and your website is a load of S#*@T. If anyone sees the name yodel stay well clear”

“To put it simple. This is a scam not a business. No ethics no one cares about you or your products just want your money and you have to wait and hope that ONE day it will arrive.”

“I spent 150 on a coat and still haven't got it despite going back and forth with the supplier company. Your courier has gone awol and failed to provide" photo in open door. "Which means he has either stole my parcel or just left in on the driveway and someone else has. Taking this further would never recommend to anyone”

“Absolutely the worst service from a delivery company I’ve ever experienced. How and why are big companies using them?! No delivery has actually arrived and marked as delivered to the door when no one has even knocked ?! I buy from anyone that uses YODEL to deliver as it’s a complete waste of time and money. Can never speak to people at customer service - they state the operating hours but then say lines are closed (when should be open)”

“This company is simply appalling. They either don't deliver (steal?) parcels, or throw parcels in buildings - not actually delivering them to the right door in tenement buildings but throwing them in the main door. I now refuse to order from any company that uses Yodel. Waste of time and money. Not worth it. Online system doesn't work; when you speak to an advisor they say they can't help as 'the system is down.' Send dishonest emails to say that parcels are left in made up places (e.g. 'in front porch' - I don't have a porch).”

“I was expecting delivery of a car battery today from Tayna who's service was excellent. Sadly their choice of courier was unfortunate to say the least. The driver pushed a card through my letterbox indicating that he'd tried to deliver but I would have to collect the parcel from the depot. He was actually parked in another street which the company's G.P.S. confirmed. At no time did he present at my address with the package. I followed him back to his vehicle whereupon he took the item from his van - thrust it into my hands and took a photo on his phone. I had to carry an extremely heavy parcel back to my home which at 75 years of age I shouldn't have had to do. The vehicle bore no Yodel livery so it's clear that in the present manic pre-Christmas frenzy Yodel are recruiting complete cowboys. Their reputation is in freefall and trying to contact them is akin to plaiting snot. Toxic outfit to be avoided at all costs.”

“Ordered a jacket on next day delivery from Tu. 3 days later no sign of it. The useless tracking system just says incomplete. Phoned Tu and cancelled the order. Top marks to Yodel for incompetence..”

“ZERO STAR FOR STEALER YODEL!!!! Rubbish stealer Indian delivery service. AVOID! They hire poor drivers who steal away the packages and mention wrong tracking info on so called YODEL tracking service. Being indians, they are not even well versed in English. I wonder if this company would be run over by British, it would have been a bit accountable and professional. Yodel webchat and online escalation service is hell disgusting due to language issue and copy paste the same emails again and again without answering ur query. They asked me to check 3 houses in front, back and around the house to locate my parcel when the tracking info showed they have thrown it in back porch 0.o absolutely disgusting. I'l report this YODEL now, complained already and companies plz ban this 3rd class yodel. We dont want our precious items to be delivered by this pathetic stealer service! Their reviews on social media are self explanatory!”

“Order from ebay was marked as delivered,but it wasnt,tracking says it was left outside from doors,how is it even legal in Uk to leave parcel at counsil flat communal area outside doors and mark it as an "delivered"?I feel like I live in some third world country!Also it wasnt left outside my doors for sure,i managed to found picture via yodel app,and there is no number visible on door so I dont know there it was left but floors outside my doors like a bit different so it wasnt left outside my doors,also parcel in picture looks way to large for item i bougt an can see annything on parcel,no namemno adress,I'm not even sure its my parcel,most likely its not,just jsut some random parcel at not my location and marked as delivered!How delivery company accept such practise tp leave items outside at front door and m ark it as "left at safe palce" and take picture where i cannot see location of of there picture was taken since I cannot see number on doors,If I had knowledge how I would fine and close this company for such practises!United Kingdom law seems laclusting for allowing such thing to happen!”

“Two different parcel same day both with yodel ,one driver delivered with no problem second driver could not locate my address so no delivery been on there chat site been told to wait until 9pm tomorrow. All other delivery companies have no problem only yodel (why). And this is the second time it's happens to me this month not able to locate address when they did deliver it was dumped on my neighbours doorstep even though I was sat outside waiting in my wheelchair for the driver , and the driver stated that I had signed for it when no one did. Just hope that none of the drivers that can't find there way don't apply to be food delivery drivers.”

“There was no prior information about delivery timing. We were at home though when it arrived. The driver rang the Block buzzer for access to the 4 storey block and we confirmed the parcel was for us. He did not reply. After some time he had not appeared at the flat door so we checked from the balcony. He ignored our calling to him, went to a recycling bin and dumped something, then got back in his plain white van (he was wearing a yellow Yodel vest) and drove away. We managed to get downstairs in time to find and recover the parcel that had been left, without a word, a note or anything in the public area by the open outer front door of the Block. It is a public area and anyone could have taken it. Luckily, we were able to recover it. I contacted Yodel on webchat. The operative was very slow, very unhelpful and basically shrugged me off. I asked to whom I could write to complain. He replied 'Abbie'. I asked him for an email address. He gave me my email address. I pointed this out and asked for an email address of someone in his company. He did not answer. I prompted him several times asking if he was still there, why he was not answering (all very politely) and he just closed the conversation without a further word. I had been making screenshots of all the conversation (including the record of him closing the conversation without replying) and still have that saved: just as well as the option to have the conversation emailed to me did not work (I have a copy of that pop-up as well) This is a repeat of every previous very poor service their company has given over the years. They are simply useless in terms of final delivery - it seems their weakness is their use of casual contract staff to drop off the parcels at the destination: always in private unmarked vehicles, always sloppy, always too lazy to actually make the delivery. And their webchat is staffed by people who seem unable to understand what is going on and who think it is OK to just leave the customer hanging their then close the conversation without answering.”
