Lost Parcel….really!
The parcel was due to be delivered last week but they “lost the parcel” and said it had been sent to Hong Kong! The item was a gift and due to the delay, I had to purchase another gift for them. The response from Paul Smith and DHL has been poor and not once has there been an apology. I shall definitely think twice about using either service again.

Leftparcel in the middle of drive
Left a parcel in the middle of my driveway for all and sundry, when could have just put it down the side of my house behind bins. Absolutely no need to risk a theft for 10seconds extra walking.

Great communication and order delivered by a friendly driver. Many thanks
Just dumped ...
Item worth £75 left on step right outside the unlocked porch, where they were told to leave it. What's the point in your asking for a safe space if the driver ignores it?

Very good delivery on time well done
The delivery guy just knocked once
The delivery guy just knocked once and didn’t even wait for a second, I had to go call him in the street as he was leaving. He was in such a hurry, I told him about this and he told me he waited for 15 seconds which is really unreasonable he could have knocked for a second time. He did apologise afterwards which is a good thing.
