Interlink Express

I'm pretty impressed!
I can track where my parcel is on the computer, but not like the other ones!
It tells me the name of the driver and an hour in which he'll deliver. It also shows a picture on the map of where he currently is, and which delivery I am.
Love it!

    DPD do this too...had a parcel delivered and was tickled to be able to follow it's progress. I was delivery #19 and watched as deliveries were made all around where I live. A bit sad I know!

    Agree with Gik, I sat in the office for an hour watching waiting for mine to arrive. What is amazing though I found was the amount of parcels on board they have, I was like number125 and that was a lunchtime delivery

    I've posted a thread about them in the past.

    It's a brilliant service because I'm perfectly happy to stay in for an hour or two to receive a parcel but having to wait in a whole day for someone like parcelfarce who only turn up if they feel like it is a royal pain.

    I was due a DPD delivery, and watched as the driver pottered about. Sod's law, I had to leave for the school run when I was the next but one delivery.
    The bonus? I could see the driver was on the next road, on my way to the school. I saw him rooting in the back of his van, called him by his name, showed him my tracking and my ID in my purse and he handed my parcel over. Saved me having to re-book the delivery as my neighbours were out :D

    Arent they the same company? Had Interlink parcels before delivered by DPD driver and van.

    I agree its great to know the time, notice City Link have a estimated time too now, but the only problem if you call it that is they are not very good at organising what goes where, as I can see the driver go past my house sometimes and deliver a few doors up or to the school across the road then drive off and not come back to mine for over 2 hours(pretty much same time every time) since that is the set time frame so its kinda mad in my opinion
