Dodgy DPD or a bad neighbour

  • I’m saying I wouldn’t assume to know that a home was empty, the neighbour could have had friends or a partner or anyone else in the home to get the parcel. I also find it unlikely a driver would take the word of a random person that someone else wasn’t home without checking first.  
    Then we have to assume the driver then gave your dad a parcel for someone else, which wasn’t checked by either the driver or your dad, and your dad then just handed them over to the neighbour who also happened to come back from his quick trip out all whilst your dad was just hanging out at the front of his property? 

    Have you or your father or the ‘actual’ neighbour who needed that parcel gone round to the neighbour to ask if he took two parcels by accident? 
  • There's little point worrying about it.  It's done now and as I said earlier, the intended recipient needs to take this up with whoever they ordered the parcel from.  It's for them to sort out, not you or your dad.
