    Going to BUMP this.
    I got a delivery card saying my stuff had been left over the road. I went over and they said they didn't have it. I never even thought of them now having my details til I read the above post.
    So what happens? Will they just say that they have completed the order with the delivery and that's it?
    (This may be a bit OTT, but what about the Data Protection Act? They've given my details to some stranger).

    They put paperwork in with the parcels. Never took any notice to what details are on, but there's some.

  • But if the person who may have taken your parcel has opened it and read the paperwork then they shouldn't have done if the parcel was clearly addressed to you. You have more of an issue with the person who has received your parcel but denies any knowledge than worrying about them having read your order details. It will probably only state your name, address and phone number anyway and what you've ordered, of course. You need to contact the sender and tell them what has happened as they should be able to check with the courier firm/driver.

    I've contacted them, just waiting to hear from them. I'm expecting them to say they can't do anything because they've been delivered. I just wondered if that would be the case, or they have to make sure I actually get them (or maybe refund).
    Forget about the Data Protection stuff.

    Inform them that you are putting the missing parcels & new orders in dispute, & that they should take no more orders, & stop any interest

    then tell them that they need to prove that the items were delivered, & where to
    they should have dates & times & a signature:
    Parcelnet website
    http://www.parcelnet.co.uk/services.html
    100% proof of delivery
    Mandatory Signature service
  • the drivers saying all my parcels have been left in a shed or porch but i dont have any of these i live in a close but i am always at home so no need for this the proof they want is that someone else placed this £410 order over the telephone when i asked for them to listen back to the call they said its not been recorded only some are my problem way this is i told them that i didnt place this order as soon as they emailed me about the despatch i have contacted parcelnet 4 times and no reply as of yet

    so they have NO PROOF that the items were delivered
    have you actually told the catalogue companies this, in writing?
    have you told them that you dont have a shed or a porch?


    as for the fraudulent order, they must have a delivery address for it?
    is it your address?
    tell them to check the telephone number the order was received from. i would assume that they already had yours on record, so they should be able to check what telephone number made the order.



    there is absolutely no point wasting your time contacting the couriers
    you do not have a contract with them
    they are contracted by the catalogue companies, so you need to raise your dispute with them.
  • yes i have wrote to them there 14 days to contact me back is up on tuesday the order was place for my address and there saying the telephone order was not recorded only some are plus my neighbours has the same problem the driver leaves all parcels at the bottom of the close
