To think DPD make up driver names?

Today I have Fabian delivering to me and he's 15 mins away. I do so love the DPD tracker. I think Waitrose should have it on their delivery vans too.

I always have the same DPD driver and his name on the tracking is always the same.

I remember Jesus in the cabbage van. I'm hoping my Easter order might just be on his route this year Grin

We run a business from home so know our dos driver really well. We are now personal friend with him and his wife.

It's his real name, even though it's along the lines of Fabian.

I have Salim most of the time.., upsetting when it's someone else as they never leave the parcel in the porch like I ask Envy

Ocado tell you who's delivering and in what van (lemon, strawberry etc).

So one delivery was 'Jesus in the cabbage van'.

I give you . Enjoy!

I had Justin last week. Have to say he didn't look like a Justin. Was tempted to ask.

I love DPD. Craig and I are on first name terms!! Their tracking system is brilliant every delivery company should be made to adopt it

We always have DPD Dan, it would feel strange not to see his name come up now lol

We have DPD Scott who looks like a Ken doll, very helpful and always brings in my packages if they are heavy and I am holding the baby.

I have DPD Donny and he's fab. He knows if my living room blind is closed, the toddler is napping on the couch so he doesn't knock, just quietly leaves parcel in my hall. Previously agreed, not creepy 😄

Oh, YouWakeUpFlawless,

We used to have Salim before we moved here. Nice fella. Wonder if he is the same guy doing the same route?

We have Luke now. He's also nice.

I've had Dilpesh from DPD a couple of times. Rarely the same Ocado driver though - Paul, Francis, Glenn, Thomas, Robert, Abbas, Marcus, Ibrahim, Mbako (from my Ocado text messages).
