Parcel just left on doorstep.
Hello I've noticed talking with others and by my own experience that delivery drivers are now just leaving parcels on people's doorstep even when they are without any front garden. Do these companies have a minimum duty to make sure that peoples deliveries are safely delivered?

Yodel drop off shops refusing parcel
As per the title I’ve sold a Wii Guitar Hero World Tour which is large (about 75 inches by 40 by 40). The only affordable parcel service was Yodel so used them and printed out the label. However 3 drop off shops have now refused to accept the parcel which is really annoying as I have paid to use their service. Just…

Evri debaucle
We recently sold an item privately and posted it via Evri. The value of the item is c. £75, so we opted to pay for a signature (to avoid the parcel being left without one) and full insurance. Evri failed to collect a signature, despite us paying extra for that service. They left the parcel outside and it has gone missing.…

I sent Vinted pictures of the box before it was posted and, after when the buyer returned it to me. They showed the broken items and all the bubble…

Blocked Bidders Question
I presume we all know that we can block bidders by entering their user name into the "Block Bidders" box and then hitting block. My question is, once that is done, do Ebay just block the user name or the account? For example, if you block someone, and they then change their user name, would they then be able to start…

Royal Mail Complexities and in plain sight hidden price hikes.
I don’t understand how the Royal Mail justify: I sent a small parcel via their tracked 48 (when it should be tracked 48/96 as it never seems to get there in 48hrs) but i digress. 1: So online purchase price options are many, Parcel Collect where I can arrange a time slot for them to call and pick up my parcel and for them…

Wrong Goods Sent From Auction
I brought some goods from an auction house through I-Bidder. It was the second time I had used them and the first there was no problem. Both times I arranged a courier to collect them and they packed them. The second time I found it was completely the wrong goods. It was quite obviously either the wrong box or they had…

Change of address
Hi all. I’ve sold an item for £20 on eBay and the buyer messaged me shortly after saying they’ve moved house so the eBay address is wrong and have given me a new address. They’ve been an eBay member since 2008 but no feedback in the last 12 months. Normally I’d cancel the order and relist and ask them to update their…
