    They really don't know when to give up in these forums do they. They should realise that none of the MSE members who have been following this thread would touch them with a barge pole.

    WHY !!!!
    the only thing this forum goes on about is dpd closing down for a few weeks which it didnt for account holders like me,their seams to be very little bad comments here about their service and ppw still have worst comments about their service than dpd. It looks like you and other members have it in for dpd,maybe you all work for ppw or someone else,i dont know and dont really care i will continue to send my 20+ parcels a day with dpd untill they let me down,oh yes i am a fan of dpd before you think that iam a plant or whatever,
    this is ment to be a money saving website yet everyone keeps forgeting that when they are open dpd are the best price and they do get the job done,why not try ringing dpd on a sunday night at 11pm and see if they answer the phone ,they do.I bet ppw or anyone else dont..i really find it hard to see why you think they are so bad? , have you used them?,do you know something i dont?What is your problem,?please tell us so we can all make up our minds (apart from they closed to the public for two weeks) I carnt see a problem with them.i am not saying everyone should use dpd each to their own ,but your posts are not helpfull as they are ment to be on this site.

    WHY !!!!
    the only thing this forum goes on about is dpd closing down for a few weeks on how many occasions?? which it didnt for account holders like me are you the only account holder then?,their (there) seams (seems) to be very little (few) bad comments here about their service and ppw still have worst comments about their service than dpd ppw have sent more than 30,000 parcels in 5/6 months, how many have DPD sent and how many customers do you actually have. It looks like you and other members have it in for dpd,maybe you all work for ppw or someone else,i dont know and dont really care i will continue to send my 20+ parcels a day with dpd untill they let me down,oh yes i am a fan of dpd before you think that iam a plant or whatever, or whatever....exactly.
    this is ment (meant) to be a money saving website yet everyone keeps forgeting that when yes when they are open dpd are (offer) the best price and they do get the job done,why not try ringing dpd on a sunday night at 11pm and see if they answer the phone could we have their number please ,they do.I bet ppw or anyone else dont....I bet you're right, as they're run from business premises, although saying that the ppw director did make his phone number available to their customers. .i really find it hard to see why you think they are so bad? , have you used them?,do you know something i dont?What is your problem,? crikey, have you read the thread please tell us so we can all make up our minds (apart from they closed to the public for two weeks) I carnt (can't/cannot) see a problem with them.i am not saying everyone should use dpd each to their own ,but your posts are not helpfull as they are ment (meant) to be on this site. I, and everyone else apologise and will in future give due credence to the legions of DPD marketeers who post on here, who are as helpful, insightful and to there credit are very creative

    One other thing; there's a legal term known as 'passing off'- I'd read up on that if I was you.

    http://www.dpd.co.uk/ (direct parcel distribution)

    it seams to me that ppw have worse feedback on this site than direct parcel delivery o'rly?,ppw use dhl which are a joke 'rolf - 97% next day delivery on a 48hr service', at least direct parcel delivery use parcelforce which are by far the best of a poor bunch 'those two are much of muchness. poor??? yet both still handling millions of parcels a year in a open market' it has to be said, but i fail to see what you what from a parcel delivery company you seem to want a great website 'a DIY site using 'mr site' which costs a few bob' a great booking system'as we can see from the post above. remind me whats the booking cut off time? 12.30? oh wrong company' and it all for nothing '?' , you need to wake up to the real world 'lol' , jake jake jake has double the amount of posts on this website than you 'blow me over he has', and says they are a good company 'yes, excellent observation', yet you are happy criticise a company you have never used 'still not been denied or proved that they have no connections with deals5direct' , a company that at a least £2.00 cheaper than ppw 'for how long?'.
    seams to me you need to grow up.......

    ...also if parcelforce are 'by far the best' how come you are now using all the other companies as well, which are obviously hugely inferior?

    I'm dyslexic and my spelling is pants, but I do my best to make it decipherable...punctuation and all that.

    The thing is your writing/grammatical style is quite distinguishable and does seem to stand out....along with all the other logins who have posted on your behalf.

    I think DPD lawyers would have more clout than DPD lawyers.

    I can honestly say that i have never posted on this website as someone else? and i try with my spelling as well but maybe you are better than me at grammer,does not mean that its a nice thing to point out someones disabilty,but you allready did, as for dpd or direct parcel delivery and lawers i dont know but unless you are dpd how would that effect direct parcel delivery taking you to court.
