DPD delivery

Rufotron

Hi sent a present to a friend , tracking says it’s delivered but it just says ‘to porch ‘ no photographic evidence . Tracking said there’s no photo as it was a manual delivery ???  The parcel isn’t there . They def don’t knock . Couple have been stolen . I’ve put an investigation request in but not optimistic based on the service so far , what’s my best plan of action ?

Update I’ve been sent a proof of delivery

Get your friend to check everywhere a parcel may have been left (garage, bins, shed etc), and also with neighbours.  If it can't be found, follow the complaint procedure on the DPD website - familiarise yourself with your cover level and claim appropriate costs, submitting as much evidence as you can (e.g. receipts for the gift etc).

Good Luck!

Hi thanks yes she’s looked everywhere , I’ve raised an enquiry but the dpd website has made it near impossible to complain , attached is the photo evidence

Was the item being sent within the Republic of Ireland, into it from UK, or from it to UK? It might make a difference to customer service and relevant legislation.
The proof of delivery is from dpd.ie
