Ordered something off the internet, was scheduled for delivery on 28/11. Didn't arrive. Tracked the parcel, and it said delivered to a neighbor on 28/11, but not which one. No card was left.

We checked with 2 fours down either side and the 4 across the road. No one had it. Went back to the company, eventually (yesterday, a week after contacting them) the tell us it's at 130, 4 doors down.

They've had our parcel 2 weeks now. If it were me, I'd have popped round my now, presuming that a card hadn't been left.

Don't get me wrong, I don't expect neighbours to deliver our parcels (or even take them, we've got a 'safe place'). But keeping it 2 weeks seems odd!

Why? They took it in and assumed you'd collect it - may well have become part of the furniture!

Or they may have tried to deliver it and you've been out

It's your problem not theirs -

If they took your parcel in, it's up to you to collect it.

She can only collect it if she knows where to collect it from.

Justmuddlingalong · 12/12/2018 18:05

She does. It's at number 130.

Fair enough. If it had been delivered to me, I'd have presumed after 2 weeks that they didn't know where it was and pop round.

Justmuddlingalong I only found that out by email last night. We've since been to get it.

They were waiting for you to collect it - it's not their job to deliver it to you! How were they to know you didn't get a card telling you where it was?

Stand down everyone. Emergency over.

Unless it's massive, maybe they just forgot they have it?
