    And to top all this off, according to Yodel, it is my responsibility to engage the sender regarding contract obligations and to monitor Yodel operations so that the appropriate escalation can be made? On Easter Saturday?

    Yup,this is the way it works.
    Is Easter Saturday a new holiday I wasn't aware of?

    No, it is a normal weekend in between two bank holidays where most people have better things to do than deal with fantasy Yodel attempts at anything competent.

    Yes, I should have seen it coming a mile away. Cowboy outfit, just let it go.

    I'm sure someone might pop up from Yodel and attempt to sound helpful. My experience is they have little influence or ability to engage the Yodel business areas that matter which would likely be at least one dysfunctional depot.

    Actually, it is not a "normal" weekend. Easter Sunday is a "protected" day, in terms of working days for retail.

    Is there a point to all these posts?
    did you do all this digging before your purchase (I assume given you weren't the sender)
