Amazon delivery man just walked into my house.....!

Now, I appreciate that delivery drivers are under time pressures but surely that doesn't extend to opening people's doors and waking into their house??

I'm WFH today in a room next to my front door when my doorbell rings and there is loud banging and knocking on my front door. I get up to answer immediately so it took me a matter of seconds to get to my hallway but when I get there the delivery driver is stood in my hallway! He just said he was looking or somewhere to put my parcel.

He hadn't been knocking long and it is clear on my account where i want my parcels to be put if I'm out.

I'm mad at myself for not locking the door, I usually do but obviously forgot when i answered the door during a call earlier but that doesn't mean strange men can just walk in my house!!

I feel a bit disconcerted if I'm honest.

This is such a weird response. Not many people have snib locks much anymore. Was 3 decades ago I last saw one. Does that mean they don't exist anymore. Nope.

I've had this lots of times not with Amazon but Hermes (as it was then) and Royal Mail have both opened my front door and left a parcel in, I think it's quite good service actually. The Evri man goes into my garage and leaves parcels in there if I'm not home.
