Subject : GRRRR Mamas & Papas!

Just a little rant really...

I placed an online order with M&Ps which I have done many times before...
Anyway due to the RM strikes thay are using DHL. They text yesterday saying 'your order will be delivered today, please reply if you will not be home to receive it'. So I replied PLEASE LEAVE WITH NEIGHBOUR. What did they do? They left a card saying it had been taken to their depot which is frigging miles away. Great.

So I have spent the morning ringing the number on the card trying to rearrange delivery and will they answer the phone. No.

I am so annoyed! I am probably overreacting but how can DHL possibly be cheaper than RM recorded/special delivery (which still get delivered despite the strikes)?? And the RM sorting office is 10 minutes walk from my house rather than 1 hour+ round trip. Grr.

Sorry for the moan! xx

My order was also delivered by DHL...2 deliveries in one day!!!!

Could it be that your neighbours weren't in when they arrived??

i was told by the post office that recorded/special will still be delayed, how true i'm not sure.

Possibly but they are elderly and don't go anywhere really. Ot could be that they refused to accept it! x
