“I was at home all day waiting for the delivery as the delivery track said it was out for delivery today. No one come, no one call me or send me a text and as time goes by I search for it and a message appears saying it could not be delivered... I will never buy nothing again from someone that use parcelforce delivery. Now what am I supposed to do???? Stay at home every dam days until finally the delivery guy decides to show???? It's a very important parcel for professional use. Worst service ever”
“If I could have give 0 stars I would have, but The minimum I can give is one star which they don't even deserve.
Not only they don't even attempt to deliver, but they also lie saying that they tried to attempt ( we were at home all day and nobody buzzed, called us or else)but nobody was in;
then they say a " we missed you"card had been left, but the truth is there was never a card left anywhere. trying to speak top them is as bad as trying to speak to HMRC. Never ever again I will purchase anything if the delivery service is Parcelforce, NO WAY !!!”
“A company that clearly doesn't care about people's complaints emailed to them. For them to email back saying they would get in touch within 3 working days... On a Thursday.. Was impossible to actually speak to anyone on the phone. Told me they would be delivering my (delicate) parcels at 11-12. As a worker I went out of my way to be home for 10:50 to find a card saying they missed my delivery. At 10:25. Have to wait another day with the thought of this terrible company throwing my parcels back out at there depot. If I had known parcel force would be delivering, I wouldn't have ordered. Very disappointed.”
“I knew a parcel was coming tiday whilst I was out so left instructions on what to do with it, leave in safe place which was specified or leave with neighbour... I get a text to say it had been taken to my local post office which shuts at the same time I finish work 5 miles away.. what is the point in advising what to do with a parcel if no notice is taken. .... ironic thing is that there is a box you can tick on the card to leave in safe place obviously my courier couldn’t be arsed”
“First time having a good experience, Mark my delivery driver was great and arrived exactly in the specified time slot. Parcel come with no signs at all of damage and looked to be handled with care.”
“This company is a joke . Husband has taken time off work to wait for a parcel was told coming between the hours of 11.00 -12.00 ( little van on screen , saying near house ) never turned up and disappeared from the tracking device. WOULD not recommend. Tried calling customer service centre was meant to call me back .. never did ...”
“This company is absolutely a joke!!!! I ordered from Addidas 2-3 days delivery just on time before I was moving to a new address. I’ve got an email comformation telling me that the delivery will arrived 2 days before my moving. It didn’t happen. I called the the company the lady told me to arrange a new delivery to my new address without charges as it was they fault and now my parcel is lost and nobody from this company knows who took the phone (why they record conversion if they don’t want to check them to check who talked to me)... now who knows what do I need to do to get my parcel. Also I will call addidas to complaint about this delivery company... I don’t understand with one 1 star from the reviews joe Addidas can deal with this people. Sooooo annoying and so rude !!!! The staff are so competent!!!! Never ever again deal with this people :(”
“Unable to change delivery options. I rarely receive from parcelforce so expected it to go swimmingly like all the other delivery companies. I should have selected neigbour or safe place but now it wont let me do that. They have just failed another delivery. no options at all to change to leave in safe place. Terrible”
“What an absolute awful delivery service!!!!
A large item sent on a 48 delivery, I have now been wait for 10 days for it & still no farther forward. I have rung everyday with promise after promise that they will call me back & still no response!?!?!
Avoid at all costs as they are unreliable & generally rubbish at delivering parcels.”
“This is now the forth bad experience we have has with parcelforce. We were lied to about our delivery not arriving, they honestly just don't seem to care. If we see something will be delivered with parcelforce now we just wont bother, it is not worth the stress and hassle.”
“Absolute joke.
Downloaded the App giving clear instructions if no-one at home. Fall back is always that they will drop at a Post Office in the area. Waiting for three parcels from three different companies - wasn't aware all 3 were using PF. Not in on 2 occasions, parcels needed signature so safe place not an option, fair enough, but didn't bother with neighbours!! As three parcels wouldn't leave with local PO as too big (shoe box size!)….. now held at a depot 16 miles the other side of London and asking me to pay £12 for Saturday delivery.
Joke of an operation - absolutely fuming - steer well clear!!!
DPD are far more efficient and orderly.”
“I was out when Parcel force tried to deliver so a "where's my parcel" card was left. The lower corners of the card had been torn off, this is where the contact details for delivery are. I arranged a delivery, waited all day but no delivery. I then get told that the package has been returned to the sender.”
“Nobody know where my parcel or my driver is, and after taking time off work to wait for 3 god damn hours customer service says they'll call me back but calls at 7pm when the drivers aren't delivering anymore. Just to say they don't know what happened but the parcel wont arrive today. I can keep taking time off work to wait for this one parcel yeah? Can't choose a time for delivery, calling customer service takes forever to get information and no GPS tracking. Never ever ever using again if I can help it.”
“Parcel Farce, what a load of s****. Worst company I've ever dealt with. I'm Why does Adidas use them? I shall be complaining to them too, just for choosing this company. Everyone reading this should do the same - complain to the original company hiring them. Hopefully, they'll change their couriers if they get enough whingers.
Seriously though, it took 8 days to deliver a parcel that was touted as next day delivery. So many phone calls, assurances and saying they'll try and make sure 'it goes out this time'. Insane service, how on Earth are these clowns still in business. 1 star actually looks glorious compared to their actual service.”
“on January 24, 2019 I sent a parcel through parcel force but 3 days later the same package was back in my house, I was informed that it was not possible to send the package because there was no connection with the other country, parcel force charged me £ 82.38 and so far have not returned anything, leaves much to be desired from a company like parcel force that does not do the job and gets the money, shame”
“Very poor Service, they tried to deliver my parcel which is far enough was unable to deliver them on both Occasions. But what struck most is rather then leaving my parcel at local post office, driver decide to take it all the way back to depo which is base in Basingstoke 42 miles away from my house in Swindon, when I asked why was it not left at local office response I was give was “driver might have not had time to drop it at your local post office or there is no local post office” been such big company it’s not good enough reason, driver should have used his common Sense of dropping parcel at local post office rather then me had to drive to Basingstoke depot to collect my parcel which end up costing me £20 on fuel. Absolutely joke I might had well collect my parcel from company.
Please use common sense next time”
“Paid for Express 24 AM on 20/6/19 on a 6kg parcel to arrive by 12 noon 21/6/19. Cost of postage £21+. I dropped the parcel at 0945 into the local Nottingham depot at 10:51 on 20/6 and noted that it then travelled to a Coventry depot (North West Processing Centre) arriving 00:21 on 21/6.
The next scan was at the Newcastle depot at 09:45 21/6. It has sat there all day until now at 1400hrs when the promise was to deliver by 12 noon today. That is what I paid for. Customer services tell me that there was a delay between Coventry and Newcastle which meant that deliveries had all been dispatched by 0945 today and no further drivers would be available. I have received a call from the Newcastle depot who say that a lorry broke down etc etc. So what do we have here ? A company that makes a promise, breaks a promise, and thinks that an apology for the inconvenience will suffice. The item in question was to arrive in Hexham by 12pm to catch a ride to Oban in Scotland as an urgent part for a boat that is taking on water. No amount of apologies will satisfy the emergency at the destination. I am told the parcel will be delivered tomorrow, a day late, and perhaps too late in the big picture. Should I believe that second promise ? Should I avoid using Parcelforce in future ? Rhetorical questions perhaps. I should mention that the quality of communication and professionalism of 'Paula' at the Newcastle depot(and her two colleagues in earlier conversations) who calling me twice to explain the situation and to apologise, was first class...unlike the dependability of the carrier service itself.”
“Posted in Rotherham 17/6/2019. 2 days later it goes to Coventry? Where it stays for 2 days then goes to Manchester which is 43 miles from Rotherham. Then put on transport to Inverness who then deliver it when they get it. We are flying overseas tomorrow!!!!.. Total time 7 days (IF it gets here).Still not delivered!! This is the worst company in the UK.”
