    So what if he accidentally took it to the wrong house and they kept the package?
    You would claim and they would say Joe Soap signed for it.
    Totally out of order.

    Yes, how dare you expect the parcel to turn up.
    You should have used the Super Duper Double Platinum Delivery Service.
    Use of this service means you receive the package (but the driver will sign your name to save you the bother)

    Ummm, Not quite what was meant, I should have added that if you a 100% guarantee of safe delivery with no damage then you have to pay for an individual to collect, transport and then deliver that item - this costs big money and even then things can and do go wrong (vehicle crashes etc). We do not live in a perfect world. I use a variety of couriers now, and have to say it is, and always has been, down to your local depot - some are good, some are not For me PF are good (and having worked for them for a number of years I know what were the good and bad depots), but others are not so good, my local DHL could do better for instance. That is what was meant by my above post - as I am sure you are fully aware ;)

    You can blame who you like, these instances do happen, and do get investigated and people do get prosecuted - both drivers and consignees.

    Seeing as there were two threads running on the same subject, I've merged the two Parcelforce threads together. I'm sorry if this makes the last few posts a bit confusing.

    As you've been able to merge the 2 threads together would it be at all possible to knock a certain 2 heads together :)

    :rotfl: Unfortunately, as tempting as the idea seems at times. This isn't part of our remit.
