OMG I'm reading the reviews on this company and I'm 100% with all you who have experienced extremely poor customer service. I could write a novel on the mistakes they made after a simple booking for delivery of a new mobile phone has turned in to a nightmare. The delivery date was not suitable so I rescheduled and then had to work Nightduty last minute and had to rearrange the date for delivery again. The final date I'd scheduled I had worked a 12hr nightshift the night before, came home and stayed awake all day waiting for delivery of my parcel. It never came. I had to contact yodel through a useless system of web chat who cut you off if they think your complaining or don't give you time to type your message and they end the chat (people are not all secretarial typists. You cannot speak to any human beings within the company and the tracking system is just not correct. I ended up being awake 32hrs and still not receiving my parcel with my new phone. I informed Webchat I would not be home all day Thursday so they go ahead and re book re delivery for Thursday??? What is wrong with these people or is webchat a computer robot or a human with half a brain?? I called Virgin to inform them about yodel and that I'd still not recieved my phone and they were able to call directly to a human being at Yodel and they then transferred the call to me while I was still on the phone with Virgin. Unbelievable!!! Virgin gave me the phone number they used to contact an actual Yodel advisor to speak with and when I tried it myself it said number not in use??? On the Internet there is an email address to complain to the managing director called "Andrew Peeler". I emailed my complaint directly to him and the email came back not recognised. I'm still waiting today for my parcel and tracking had just shown that the driver is only 5 minutes away from my home, but he won't be here at my house till between 5-7pm and it says he also has 131 more parcels to deliver before he gets to me..... what a load of utter garbage. I'm now in the process of discussing this issue with the Ombudsman about the service and treatment of customers with company and please listen everyone out there..... don't ever use this company as its customer service is disgusting. This was my first time ever having to deal with this company and I've just read on the Internet that 2 years ago in a poll they rated 3rd worst delivery service in UK, but after the 4th poll results, its been rated the worst or of all the delivery services. 57% said they had a terrible ordeal dealing with this company and would never use again.... That percentage for me has just increased even higher and hope people steer well clear and use a reputable company you can trust. Hopefully the company with fizzle out and go bust. Now that would make me happy.

I was informed that l would have to sign for my parcel. So l waited in patiently, and followed the tracking. I left a note of outside on my front door for the courier to press my 2 doorbells. To cut a long story short, l opened my door, the parcel had been left there. The driver didn't even bother the ring the bells, and l didn't sign for it. I was worried that someone could have stolen it, because it was worth £2,000 I was left feeling upset and angry. 👎☹️😠😡

It is the worst company I have ever had to deal with. They charged me extra (a lot extra) for a next day delivery, and it has been a week and still there is no delivery. The customer service have no clue how to help, when it will be delivered. Basically the customer service has been given a script and they just copy paste answers from it. After a week of delay, they say they have delivered it, but the customer service cannot say where it was delivered, who accepted it or even a picture. So basically now they have lost the package. They are the most incompetent group of people I have ever had to deal with. Stay away and choose any other service

My driver was a liar! we followed the delivery drop by drop and when we were the next delivery I went to the window and my wife went to the door to wait for him, nobody turned up, after a good amount of time I checked the progress, it said, sorry we missed you and the driver has left a card, no body came near and no card was left. I contacted customer support via computer, the only way I could speak to any one, and they were as much use as a chocolate tea pot, all they said was the driver will try again tomorrow, why couldn't they phone the driver! This company is a joke and from now I will let all my suppliers know not to use yodel when sending to me.

If I could put no stars I would! Returned two packages to two different retailers via a parcel shop and Yodel have mixed them up. I am now being asked to pay again for one of the items as the retailer is saying that I haven't returned it. Absolutely Furious - will NEVER use this service again.

Yet another "delivery" from Yodel saying delivered but not to my address. This makes 5, I wish companies would let you know eho will be delivering, I wouldn't buy from them if it was Yodel. Pictures of delivery showing layby somewhere, why is this acceptable

I had two parcels delivered which contained porcelain figures out of the 5 items in there there was only one that wasn’t smashed customer services said they didn’t insure porcelain even though they took £10 of me for the insurance which they will not refund or compensate the driver must have used these parcels as a football absolutely disgusting company don’t ever use them they deserve to go out of buisness

POOR DELIVERY SERVICE DISGRACEFUL CUSTOMER SERVICES. Item showed delivered , then changed to left on porch , I had been sat home waiting on the delivery and no such attempt or drop was made ,after contacting yodel customer services I was told the item WAS delivered ( basically calling me a lier ) we can see by GPS the driver was in your area at the time of delivery ,after contacting the seller to chase this up 48hrs later I received a copy of the photo that yodel customer services had to hand as proof of delivery ,, I was delivered to the wrong address. See pictures below address label and my house number is 46 you can see clearly the house number delivered too which is 200ft away from my location.

My parcel has been lost or delivered to the wrong address by Yodel. I have spoken to two different people within an online chat (Vikram on Monday and Randhir on Tuesday). They both promised that I would hear back from Yodel within 24 hours, but I’ve heard nothing. Vikram told me that he knew my parcel had been delivered to a postcode “near” to mine, but not to my address. I am disgusted that I am being treated so badly. I want a full refund for my parcel immediately! `You are a disgrace Yodel! Lindy James

For the 4th time now I have paid for Next Day Delivery and they haven’t delivered the next day! Absolutely shocking, don’t charge for a service you cannot provide. The tracking system says “Sorry there is a short delay”, no other information. Try to contact one of their customer services and they are always busy. People use Next Day because they need the items THE NEXT DAY. Otherwise they wouldn’t pay it. I never experience any of these issues with other delivery services, as soon as I see my supplier has chosen Yodel my heart sinks as I know it’ll be late, and I’m always right!

Awful. They don't even deliver to our whole business park (my biz address) and always state 'refused at door' at my home address when they didn't even turn up AND I have a 'safe place' set. A bargain basement courier - avoid them and ANY online firm that uses them - nobody needs the chaos, chasing on refunds or lost orders, and hassle.
