Dropped on front doorstep. Safe place was behind bin with further instructions to place in bin...it is winter, after all. Even nicknamed package as put inside bin......a major clue you would think. End result....package nowhere to be found. Strike up applause for Yodel cocking it up yet again. Useless, incompetent ( obviously illiterate) morons. A 5 year old could do better; and that's insulting 5 year olds dragging them down to Yodel's pathetic level

This company does not even deserve 1 star. If I could give less than one I would do. In the past 4 weeks yodel have lost a really large heavy parcel which was already recorded as being on the van and out for delivery. Were they bothered? Not in the slightest. How they can loose such a large heavy item is beyond me. Perhaps when it went on to the van it went through a portal to another world and will reappear in the future on the other side of the world. Now they have gone one better. Parcel arrived at local (Alfreton) depot. Great! Sat there for a day or so then was recorded as at local depot LONDON!! It's destination was Sheffield. So it went from Preston to Alfreton and then London. Oh but now it's on its way back to sender as "unable to deliver". Maybe if you actually sent it to Sheffield it might stand a chance of being delivered. It makes me go cold when a seller puts "despatched with yodel" as a know it's gone for good. Terrible company.

If you want to receive your parcel and get genuine information via customer service please don't chose this company! When I purchased their service the expected delivery time was 2-3 days, after purchasing went up 5 days. Contacted customer service, only gave me copy paste answers and I am traveling away, so don't chose them as Christmas present delivery service.

The best courier logistics company in England, which lies. I ordered a product and did not receive anything. Then I ordered the same product again, because the first one disappeared and no one knows where. I took time off from work to stay at home to receive the package. I followed the tracking and there were about 4 minutes left for the package to reach me. But it wasn't like that, he kept moving away from me. At the moment I started to follow the car and see where it was going. He stopped at a place near the forest, between Burnley and Accrington and moved some packages from the van into the smaller car. I waited the next day, thinking it would come. But it wasn't like that, Trachingul was shown to me delivered to my home. Good people, please don't trust the Yodel company to deliver any packages. Better deliver with EVRY, DPD, ROIAL MALE or with another company. Drivers steal packages, be careful with which company you deliver. Feedback

Virgin Media used Yodel to deliver a package to me. According to Yodel a signature was required and the package could not be left in a safe place as an option . As we had to go out I selected the option to have it delivered to a specified neighbour. When we got home the parcel was at our front door and the neighbour confirmed he had not been contacted. Trying to get a response from Yodel has proved impossible despite asking them to telephone me. In fact during an online chat Yodel ended the conversation whilst I was typing in details of my dissatisfaction. Strangely reviews on Trustpllot about this company are, on the whole, fairly positive. I have therefore posted my views on Trustpilot to try to redress the balance and shall complain to Virgin.

Never knock on the door even on busy streets along main roads, constantly just placing parcels at the doorstep and racing back to the van without knocking or pressing the doorbell and waiting to actually hand over the parcel

Twice in 2 days Yodel has delivered 2 very heavy parcels. Each was placed at my door, the bell rung, the driver raced to his van and drove off. The first, my neighbour had driven up at the same time and he carried it into my hallway, the second I have pulled in with huge difficulty. I am disabled and request that heavy parcels are put just inside my hallway and I can then access the contents. Is this Yodel's policy? Do you have any idea how upsetting this is? I guess you don't care. Even if I wasn't disabled I couldn't lift them. I have informed both companies that I will not be buying from them again. You will not be delivering to me again. I am a regular buyer with each company and spend a great deal of money with them. I will write to Mr Barclay about this. Who knows, he might even offer incentives for showing even a little caring behaviour. Not that he should have to.

They lost TWO parcels one a VERY expensive laptop I had a very brief call on the phone with Jayden, who was quite rude and unhelpful. He told me he couldnt help and would nag up now, and then we disconnected.

Terrible experience, waited in with the time slot given, no attempt to knock at my address, tracking updated as delivered, customer services gave me latitude and longitude of my neighbours address, said it had been delivered and could offer no more assistance. Tried all my neighbours, nobody has received anything.

Unable to recognise new UK post codes that every other delivery company is able to deliver to. Customer Service is hopeless and unable to resolve anything with the depot. Sent to wrong depot initially. Was told delivery had been attempted twice, when I had video evidence that it hadn’t. The photo the driver took to support this wasn’t even my property. Spoke to Customer Service every day for over a week and still not delivered. Provided What3Word location 4 times and still not delivered. Eventually gave up and asked retailer to cancel order, recall the parcel and refund. Now waiting in anticipation to see if Yodel can manage to get that bit right!

I would encorage everyone who has had problems with yodel to report them to the trading standards agency (as I have done) they are a complete waste of time and effort, the list of ineptitude is too long to go into, will never deal with a company again who uses yodel

I received an email saying that the parcel has been delivered to a collection point. I went to collect it only to be told it's not there. A very rude shop owner shouted at me and asked me to 'leave as others customers are waiting' I tried tracking the parcel so I contacted Yodel using the live chat option. Three different customer service advisers closed the chat without actually resolving the issue. ABSOLUTELY USELESS. NON EXISTING CUSTOMER SERVICE

I do not know how Yodel are still operating, they must be the worst parcel company in the UK. Why do retailers still use them, Yodel are letting you down.

I have been waiting for my parcel for 3 days by now. I don't know when or even if I would ever get my parcel. 1st day, contact their support at 3pm and then 7:30pm. Every time they assured me the parcel will be delivered on the day, the driver works till 10pm and I will get a notice when driver leaves depot with my parcel. But for the whole day, never turned up. And the status of my parcel showed 'At Depot' all the day. 2nd day, similar to the 1st day. I was promised the parcel will be delivered on the day, but never turned up, again showed as 'At Depot' all the time. 3rd day, the status changed to 'Out for delivery' with a time window 13:36 to 15:36. So waited and watched the driver position on their tracking app. When the driver got pretty close to me (about 0.5 mile away) at about 15:30, the status suddenly changed to 'At Depot'. I then got an email saying they have tried but missed me, but I had been home all the time! Contacted the support (their live chat), even told me they have tried to deliver in 3 consecutive days! What a lot of rubbish. I just simply cannot believe a company can be this bad!

Ordered my parcel to my work, reception lady rejected parcel due to no full name on parcel. Yodel driver said delivered and took a pic of the lady looking at the parcel and who it was for and tried to pass it off as being delivered. We have cameras so can see the guy leaving with said parcel! Yodel just told me to contact who I brought and where no help! Terrible service, dishonest staff! Avoid

Shocking customer service, driver said he had delivered parcel, no parcel find at property checked CCTV to see driver throw my parcel over shoulder walk round with it on main road get back in van drive off, online chat with yodel are disguesting liers they told me the driver couldn't find properly they will try 3 times, I gave them the what three words and directions to property door, day 2 was tracking driver was 6 stops away and tracking suddenly said contact yodel which I did again to confirm my address and how to reach the front door, day 3 chasing up delivery again told to "wait just wait driver will call" what do you know when I tried to track my parcel again 30 mins later it now says being returned.would not recommended them even Evri finds my property ok and that's saying something.

I have had to change my wine club because yodel 'can't find my address'. They have delivered here for the last 10 years but now they are unable to find us. The last time they delivered the driver blamed my wife for the bad condition of the road? They are cheap and nasty. Don't use!!
