    The replies you recieved in your thread weren't rude ar all, they were replies you did t like. Your thread was asking people to stop using them which didnt work.
    This thread is informing those who use Kfc there might be a limited menu, its not a place I frequent but others may do..

    The replies I received were very rude. Do you want me to go back and get them? RUDE replies.

    All DHL's fault, apparently.

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/5608465/kfc-chicken-shortage-dhl-apologise/:
    DELIVERY giant DHL has apologised after 900 KFC branches were forced to close when their chicken wasn't delivered.

    The glitch came just four months after the courier company vowed to "set a new delivery standard" as it was awarded the KFC delivery contract.

    After announcing the partnership, a DHL spokesman boasted: "DHL is also committed to setting a new industry benchmark by delivering outstanding service to all KFC’s restaurants and its consumers."

    "We intend to re-write the rule book and create a stock management, distribution"

    [...]

    A DHL spokeswoman added: “Due to administrative issues a number of deliveries have been incomplete or delayed.

    "We are doing our utmost to rectify the situation as soon as possible and apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.”

    Oh well. Thanks to SNOWTIGER for updating us. But really, DHL should be dumped and I would use Yodel or Hermes. These are very good couriers.

    In fairness, I could not care less about Kentucky Friend Chicken and their supply issues.

    THANK YOU
    In fairness, I was not going to boycott Pizza Hut on your say-so. :rotfl:

    Ah - that probably explains it.

    I ordered a pair of slippers from Debenhams, but the DHL delivery guy turned up at my house with a tonne and a half of raw chicken.

    So I'm going to head over to the local KFC branch and see if I can see anyone wearing my blue fur-lined suedette moccasins.

    Anyone that wishes to can see your input on the Boots thread. You were incredibly rude.
