To expect better from Royal mail

15 replies

Vanfan · 28/08/2024 20:06

I ordered an item from Amazon and delivery was promised by tomorrow 29th August. I was pleased to have a message stating that the delivery would be today - sometime before 8pm.
Okay, not the end of the world and I can wait until tomorrow to fetch the prescription from the pharmacy since I have rarely dealt with Royal mail for parcel deliveries and I dont know what happens now if I miss it.
So I waited all day and it turned up at 7.32pm. Not the end of the world and the parcel was in good condition and the postman polite .
But for some reason I checked the tracking page before closing the tab . This is the proof that my medium sized parcel was delivered.

Lord knows what was captured and how on earth does that prove anything.

Also Id like it to be known that I was fully clothed when I answered the door.

Your package was delivered but you're not happy with the delivery photo? I couldn't get worked up about this.

The parcel arrived on the expected day, in good condition & they were polite but unfortunately he got his finger in the way of the photo he took of the delivery & you have had to start a thread about it as 'you expect better'

What's your issue exactly? If you were out they would have automatically redelivered tomorrow

Fuck me… What more do you expect?

YABU - you got your parcel, yours was a win.

The last delivery photo I had from Royal Mail was someone else’s door and I had to hunt it down myself to find my parcel!

Get a grip.

True. A day earlier than OP expected maybe

veritasverity · 28/08/2024 20:33

Well I mean apart from the fact the photo resembles a foetus, I can't see the issue?

KrisAkabusi · 28/08/2024 20:45

Your parcel arrived on time and unbroken, but you're still moaning. Fuck me, some people are hard work!

Hernamewaslola22 · 28/08/2024 20:47

I wish my problems were like this 😅

Zingy123 · 28/08/2024 20:49

You are incredibly petty. You got your parcel what's your problem?

InandOutlander · 29/08/2024 09:17

Jesus OP is getting a hard time - nowhere have they said this is a big problem that has ruined their life!

The point is - there is no point in taking a proof of photo delivery if it looks like that! I agree
