Post two things. One small box, one big box. We need data granularity.

Guys.... should i post another one?

Yes. But this time put a GPS tracker in there.

Or even a better a cheap Nokia phone...the one with a week plus of battery. After a week ring it and maybe someone will open the package and answer. Then you can give 'em the good 'ol Liam Neeson.

This reinvestment of compo scheme definitely has legs. It could turn into a crypto currency, maybe called Shitcoin?

Do it and if I could give you the credits they said they would give me for screwing up I would be delighted to pay for the collection --- A collection addressed to yourself would be the ultimate spoof ---- please please do it 🙂

I just don't think it'll deliver on the investment.

I suggest the OP gives out his address and we all send him a package.

Good idea but the joke is that he lives on the moon, or alternatively in a box in Hermes' returns dept.

I wish I had seen this thread before I sent my nephew and niece (who live in central Edinburgh) their Christmas presents, by MyHermes... 🙂

Can I join the 'wait and see' brigade?

If they arrive but not yours, we'll at least confirm just how much your driver detests you.

They have to be stealing them! being that incompetent would be too much effort! The only guarantee is they will lie about it!

Latest MH delivery helpfully thrown over the garden fence in the rain today. Why is it always delivered like this when it rains?

If you are a MyHermes driver a good way to decide what to steal/bin is to look and see if your last drop is miles away and likely to involve rush hour traffic.
at least an hour of your time plus the diesel means those deliveries are just not worth making.

I'm away for a couple of days and an expensive bottle of perfume for the OH has also been lost, I had no notification of its posting and have since found out it's been 'signed for by the purchaser', it will not be there when I get back tomorrow 😥

MyHermes have cost me £180 so far this December.

With a bit of effort you should be able to get to £500 + VAT by Christmas.

Sounds like time to test the insurance claims process OP! I wonder what manner of fun that may entail?!

I actually changed my buying on something else as I found out the retailer used Hermes otherwise the total losses would start to creep up.
Maybe Hermes will end up like the Daily Mail and businesses will take their custom elsewhere.

My parcel is still at the parcel shop awaiting collection so I've just been on live chat. They've advised I 'wait a little longer for the tracking to be updated', with no explanation why it's not been picked up.

Waiting, patiently at home studying barley grains. I also have a big box of sex toys getting delivered and a Shimano action cam (not linked.... though, thinking about it - the Shimano cam can be activated by ANT+ i.e. record over a certain heart rate...Hmmm)

It's with the local courier according to tracking. X

I did, a reputable online one, that unbeknown to me uses a disreputable delivery service.
(Was ordered before she knew how bad MyHermes are)

My CRC next day delivery order is being delivered by Hermes today.
What's the chances of it turning up between 15:00 and 19:00 as per there website?

This thread is like crack cocaine. I can give up anytime, just one more day, honest. I'll give it up then, promise.

They are compulsive liars -- they cannot help themselves, its the default setting for all their problems, lie and then lie again. Come they day of reckoning they will be first against the wall 😆

Wait.. it says they're delivering tomorrow.
Saturday?

I've asked them about they failed delivery yesterday and for an explanation of today's "not bothering to do our job" bit.

Their normally speedy-to-respond outsourced helps guys normally get back really quickly. Been a while - I imagine there are no cut and paste answers in their playbook and you're not allowed to freestyle

Do you have a friendly neighbour? If so, why not end him/her something via MH. That way you'll know if it's personal! 😀

Just had a peek at the tracking info again, fully expecting delivery to have been made by now...

"delay"

...this is beyond silly now.

Can guarantee I will not use Hermes in future.

From personal experience I know that access to some tenement buildings can be a pain in the arse (usually EH11 in my case), but it doesn't excuse this in the slightest.

I get deliveries from all other courier companies without any major issues.
They normally try the actual 3 times, leave cards (even just through the door on the street if they can't get in to the building) and have alternative options for me (as receiver) like pickup at depot/parcel shop etc
