    Unless I sign for any parcel delivered to me then I didn't receive it even if left on my doorstep it did not arrive regardless of the informing email. This may sound dishonest but today's delivery drivers make a lot of premeditated mistakes.
    "May" sound dishonest?  It is dishonest if you are claiming refunds you are not entitled too.  You can look forward to your account being suspended.
    Plus with the current pandemic most companies are not letting you sign, so you’ll find their terms and conditions say different. 
    Most deliveries I've had recently (since April) courier companies have been laying parcel outside the front door and taking a photo of it on the doorstep.  Of course there had to be one driver who laid a rather large box outside my front door so that when I tried to open the door (it opens outwards), it jammed against the parcel and I couldn't get out.  Good job I am so posh I have a back door as well!

    You are taking the moral high ground with your assumption's I did not say I make request for refunds, the reason for my post was that I have had a few parcels left at different addresses sometimes streets away and on occasions it has taken sometime for the honest recipient to contact me and. If and when that happens I notify the online retailer that this my package has turned up and the appropriate procedure then follows.
