r/britishproblems on Reddit: Getting a sorry we missed you email, minutes into your hour long delivery slot, whilst sitting by the door.
August 7, 2024 - Had nice text a little while ago, saying that they had missed me... ...I'd spent the last two hours in the front garden cutting grass and trimming the hedges. DPD stands for Delayed Package Dropped... ... Colleagues who are never around when you stick the kettle on, but pop up and swoop in as soon as it's boiled if you're not quick enough ... Ocado turned up an hour late and then realised they didn’t deliver a whole crate of fridge stuff only after they left!

r/britishproblems on Reddit: I’ve “missed the delivery” from DPD 3 days in a row. I’ve been home the entire time, and neither of them rang the doorbell.
October 23, 2023 -

Each of these three days I suddenly got an email saying I missed them. Two of the times it came with an image attached - one which was a blank photo, and another of a door I do not recognise in the slightest

I’ve had several deliveries in the past from various different couriers, 95% of whom had the basic mental capacity to locate my flat building and ring my doorbell. The other 5% being kind enough to phone me and ask for directions. All three DPD drivers have failed somehow

I went to the customer complaints page on DPD’s website, only to have a button which redirects me to the basic contact us page. I don’t mean to sound aggressive, but I sincerely hope the CEO of DPD accidentally pours gone-off milk into their cornflakes tomorrow morning.

r/Scams on Reddit: I got a text from DPD UK saying I have a delivery, but I didn't order anything with them
June 8, 2022 -

I don't know was is going on. The things I've ordered recently are from Amazon, and it due to arrive between June 10-13, so I'm pretty sure it not that. The other thing I ordered came on Monday. The website link in the text seems correct, and I think they came to my house to deliver yesterday, but I was on an important call. The message says that they will be coming again today between 12:31 and 13:31. Should I answer the door and tell them I didn't order anything, or should I not answer. I'm confused and don't know what to do.

While I don't know how to post pictures on Reddit, I can write the text out. The message that I got this morning says:

"Your driver Manpreet will deliver your parcel today between 12:31-13:31, you have options if you are not in www.dpd.co.uk/....."

I didn't put the rest of the link because it has my name and address. I've never done anything with DPD or made an account or anything, but they have my details.

Also, I posted this on the wrong Reddit page, so I was directed here.

The scam entails sending a text that claims that DPD attempted to deliver a package to you, but was unable - and there therefore is an outstanding fee to pay for arranging a redelivery.

DPD - two failed attempts but i was home - The EE Community
March 4, 2024 - @Violetlucy2000 There’s nothing you can do until the device has been processed as a failed to deliver. Take the delivery time slot with a pinch of salt I’ve had my last 2 EE DPD deliveries 15 minutes before the timeframe and the DPD app that shows the location of the van showing it 15 deliveries away from mine.

Yet another day wasted waiting for DPD - Samsung Community
March 8, 2023 - Amazingly Samsung customer service rang me yesterday offering me a voucher to make up for them over charging for the S23+ I ordered. I pointed out that it was pointless talking to me as they had still failed to deliver the actual phone. So today I got yet another notification from DPD saying they will deliver in the one hour time slot, this time it was 13:59 to 14:59.
