Carriers

Post by Hitch »

Been waiting for a delivery today from Parceline...Next day
Mrs H changed her plans to wait in all day for it.
I tracked it earlier, to find out it had gone back to the depot
'Unable to deliver- calling card left, landmark, brown front door.'

::b They had our address, postcode, phone number....

And they still managed to either go to the wrong place or lie about trying to deliver. Theres only one ****** ***** in this village, nothing that even sounds like it. And we dont have a brown front door either, nor anyone else in this road ::b



That aside, as she was waiting in for the delivery, we had something to be sent. Arranged with citylink for it to be collected today, for delivery tommorow.
Its still sat here next to me now ::b


I really give up with courier companies :cussing:

the job im working on at the moment, the cleaner tried her hand at couriering, she had two very large areas to cover, im talking a 100 mile round trip to some places, like farms and houses up two mile off road tracks, she was getting about 50 parcels a day to deliver, she only worked three days a week, has to wait 6 weeks to get paid, and guess how much she was getting paid per parcel?

My friend had a job delivering parcels, she got good money for it, but after a couple months or so of working for them, they started taken the p155, and puting in giant parcels, some she couldnt even pick up, so she packed the job in.
She used her own car as well, and the wear and tear is down to you too. ::b
I would rather want something I dont have, that have something I dont want
