The delivery driver was working at that time, why wasn’t the receptionist!?

edit: Thanks to everyone who’s pointed out that this is a scam - and who gave advice/or worried about me. I was half asleep this morning, it didn’t click (though I did notice that the url wasn’t evri - I’m too used to vendors passing me over to third party websites). It doesn’t help that the evri helpline is robots only. No bank details lost though.

    Some courier companies do much cheaper shipping but charge redelivery fees because they dont want to have to pay the post office to be a collection point or maintain brick and mortar premesis.

    Its fine when you’re expecting it and deliveries happen during business hours but its a rude shock when you buy something and the seller doesnt warn you.

      Over here, DPD is the outfit that seems to underbid everyone, maintains their own collection points and then delivers with the worst service humanly possible.

      They also use a ton of subcontractors that are outright thieves.

      And when they get caught stealing, all DPD does is assign them a different route and they’ll only breach their contract if they actually go to jail for the theft, not for the theft itself, but because they can’t work.

      And when they are assigned a different route, there’s a good chance they fill in for their old routes within the month and are right back at your doorstep, not actually delivering your packages again.

      Computer store near me caught one driver 4 times in a span of 2 months, the thefts totaled well into the 20K (shitload of GPUs, iPads and other tablets) to then have that same driver show up at his store again 3 months later AND FUCKING STEALING AGAIN.
