I think it says AAW. As in aaw shucks!

And according to Google Maps Streetview- I think the beggar outside Starbucks has got a newish-looking cardboard box.

If only Voldemort had thought to send the seperate pieces of his soul through the Hermes parcel "delivery" network.

That specky spod Potter would have been well humped.

If you're looking for the other one, it's in your hall - top left in your photo. Looks like a(nother) Wiggle drop. It was there all the time silly Billy... 🙂

Also....don't you have a letterbox?

It doesn't look big enough to prevent them sticking it through the door.

Now they know where you live. Not sure if that's a good thing. Maybe worth letting the Christmas rush die down and try again if you want to actually come face to face with your local agent, assuming they actually exist.

Dropped off at the parcel shop on November 15th on a 48 hour service.
Today is December 13th

"crashed scan"?

What does that mean?

Based on that, and the fact it was just left in the stairwell, my guess is that the driver pretended that the scanner didn't work and faked a signature.

Isn't this the point at which you go back to Hermes and say 'Who the heck is Alan?'. Unless of course you do have a neighbour called Alan?

And technically it hasn't been delivered to the recipient... [s]given to[/s] dumped in a stairwell and a signature from a [s]random[/s] made up bloke called Alan != delivered to addressee.

Round 2? best out of 3?

Do you think Alan is my delivery driver?

I think Alan is the new delivery driver with the big van. I am wondering if their thing about giving it to a new driver to deliver means that the depot finally noticed some of my driver's chicanery..?

@OP - think myhermes conditions provide for a refund of posting charges for late deliveries so you can claim and go again.

Interesting! I hadn't thought of that, I had just assumed it was the original crap driver faking a delivery, but you could be right your new semi-competent delivery driver could be the Alan...

If you do go for round 2 then I think you should post two parcels at the same time, one very small, say the size of a kinder egg toy capsule, and one very very big. By the MH explanation they should be given to two different drivers based on their van sizes, one to vanish into the abyss, and one to be delivered by Alan and his big van, either way we'll be some way closer to understanding this dastardly web of deceit they're spinng!

I guess a mass parcel posting could be fun!

Rather not put my full address up, so pm if you want it.

Don't suppose someone can tweet this to MyHermes CEO (I don't have Twitter) or knows their email address?

Much easier with Amazon. Two days ago we waited in for a Parcel. Received a text that it'd been delivered 2 mins ago - yet not even a knock at the door. Quickly opened the door to find said parcel leaning against the Street side of the gate, lazy tosser.

Quick complaint, one month free extension to Prime.

There's no need for that. No one forced you to read through ten pages worth.

This is too amazing not to be tweeted but I'm not on twitter either. I know a BBC Scotland journalist though and could run it past them?

yourguitarhero - Don't suppose someone can tweet this to MyHermes CEO (I don't have Twitter)?

Takes 2 minutes to set up an account and you're good to tweet although a direct message might be fairer as a first step.

At this point you could lodge a formal complaint that they haven't delivered it to you at all, demand a full refund run the complaints process through the mill, thus costing them loads of time and money,just to make a point? I do this with organisations that fail to resolve a complaint satisfactorily. Takes ages but g take a perverse pleasure in knowing I'm eating into their profits, safe in the knowledge I'll never choose to give them another penny!

I have coffee machine spares out for delivery with them today. It should go through the letter box. Odds on it being left in the recycling wheelie bin/not delivered?

Love this thread.

I'm having a parcel delivered today by MH so fingers crossed, but we do have an excellent MH driver so I'm not too worried.

I have a small online business and have not used them since a couple of years ago I saw one of their big lorries transfer a load of parcels to one of their smaller vans/crappy delivery cars. The lorry driver was dropping the parcels from the back of his truck to the floor, approx 4ft. Not using the taillift or passing them to the other driver just dropping them one on top of the other... I think it's a game of 'we don't care how many we break' to them

Just had to refund someone on a broken item, my second in a few weeks. I'm stopping using them

I'm not sure if I'd prefer MH or 'still living in the dark ages' Canada Post. They were running adverts 2 or 3 years ago saying "in the future you'll do most of your shopping online and have it delivered straight to your door by Canada Post!". In the future?!? I've been shopping online for at least 15 years. Never mind the fact that my building complex doesnt have mail boxes, so you need to go to the post office itself to get mail and parcels. At this time of year it's usually a 30 minute wait, sometimes 45 or an hour. And they'll only hold things for 10 days. Fun fun fun.
