Ordered two items from different internet sites on Tuesday night.
Company A: free next day delivery, so it was dispatched Wednesday for delivery today.
Company B: free 2-3 day delivery with item estimated to be delivered on Friday 15th.
I was sent tracking numbers for both items this morning, and both items arrived at the Gateshead service depot in the early hours of this morning.
Item A was not delivered, and it has been marked as delayed in transit. However, item B has been delivered a day early.
Annoying as I really wanted item A and was looking forward to getting it today.

I'm confused, whats the problem? a package is delayed, is that it? Did you think this was a diary?0 -
I thought it was a vent forum for people with frustrations.
It's just annoying when both parcels were at the depot this morning, and they brought the one on a non-urgent delivery, but haven't delivered the urgent one which should have been delivered today.
Not a huge problem in the grand scheme of things, but it's annoying.Here I go again on my own....0 -

Sorry, just me being pedantic0 -
Checked the tracking this morning to see if it's out for delivery. It's been moved from a depot a few minutes away from my home, to another depot which is about 90 mins drive away. Wonder why they did that?
I have to pop out a couple of times today, so it's just my luck that they'll try and deliver when I'm not homeHere I go again on my own....0
