Has DPD been becoming more shit recently? Used to find them fairly reliable but the last couple of times I've gone to rearrange delivery they straight up didn't bother delivering on the day I'd chosen. I got a notification on Monday evening they were going to deliver a parcel I'd been waiting for from France on Tuesday; I knew I'd be working until late so I asked for it to go to a pickup shop instead so I could grab it on my way home. Get another text saying 'no problem, you can pick it up after 12:00'. Then... they just didn't do it. The tracking just says it's still in Enfield and when I called this morning it put me on hold until I gave up and went to make breakfast, and now when I call they've removed the option to speak to a human that was there before as if I've offended the machine by hanging up before.
This would be a minor annoyance normally but it's my wife's birthday present for next week and we're going away to Spain this evening, so they've fucked that right up for me.
