Evri and other parcel delivery

[Failingatthemoment]

Companies that say they delivered your parcel amd then take a picture of a door thats not yours. Do people ever get their parcel? And what happens if they don't? I felt sorry for a woman who knocked on my door as her parcel courier had taken a photo of a green door. She went around a few streets knocking on green doors to find her parcel.

If an Evri parcel is delivered to the wrong place, it's gone unless the recipient is kind enough to drop it off. In my area, Evri is the worst delivery company.

I'm in a city centre and often get deliveries for other people. A few weeks ago, I got 12 sacks of sand meant for a gaming store down the street. I have tried to contact customer service and have never heard back. It's so hard to get through that most people probably don't bother to try.

Deliveries for me used to go to any of the local businesses. They were often given to drunk people at the pub next door who would drop them off.

It's hard to escape Evri because so many companies use it, but what I now do is get delivery to a pick-up point (a local shop), which is a lot more reliable (probably because many packages have to be delivered at once to that one place). I never order from companies that don't offer a pick-up point option.
