TeeJay Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Hi! I have been very busy with my parcel problem and have found the following none-official result. It seams that the UPS guy left the parcel in front of my door, signed that I received it and then left. It lay there for half a day and one night, (most likely less), as I did not leave the house that day, because I work from at home! The diver called me up today, as he was questioned on the case and offered me 100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agrippa Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 I'm totally with TeeJay et al. The guy deliberately chose not to give a f*ck about the safety of your delivery, so why, exactly, does he deserve to keep his job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaedo Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Firsty it is a breach of his job description, along with fraud. Who knows how often he has done this in the past, the only reason he is showing any 'remorse' here is that he got caught. Were he in a cashier job at a supermarket he would be pocketing every 5th transaction rather than putting the money in the till. Fry him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 Yes that is true, so I now will get my baseball bat, go over and find out if he is lying or if I have to excuse myself for my slightly behaviour...give me 5 mins, I am right back! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. No, he does not have it! I allready asked the neighbors before posting this thread! Ask UPS to get the "deliveryman" to physically in the place, indicate to which door he delivered the package. Ask UPS to give you a written answer regarding the 100 USD refund and also to give you a copy of the written std procedure where it says about the (100 USD) refund. BTW , these procedures can only be valid if they are made available when the service was contracted. In any case , ...... it will be pretty hard to get anything out of them.

P4GTR Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 tell him to find your stuff (maybe he kept it, and would rather give it back than pay 450 eur) or to reimburse what you paid for it, otherwise you'll be forced to deal with UPS. Maybe you even know someone personally at the local news station that would love this story, you might tell him. NEVER us UPS unless you have absolutely no choice. Use USPS only, for everything/anything. If UPS loses your stuff, your a rat in a maze, and you're not getting out. Just trust me on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metaljesus Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 MJ, are you thinking of USPS as I didnt think UPS got RM to do their deliveries. Not being clever mate just be interested to know if UPS do that at all. Youre right Pete, I do mean USPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
further Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 I would Personnaly settle this with the driver. I am sure he has learned its lesson. But I will ask for the total value of your item + some more for the hassle! If he does not agree, get him fired. It happen to me not too long ago, I order stuff every week from a store that uses UPS and the same drive always deliver to me or my secretary. But recently he delivered my order to another building next to mine. I was looking at the tracking and saw that the package arrived and was signed by someone not in my office. This funny enough, was the first time I did not use insurance to cover the full value but only 100$. Few hours later I did receive a call from the person who received the package and asked me if I could come pick it up. The company I do business now is not using UPS as much as they used to and moved to Purolator. Good Thing!! SOOOO many horror stories with UPS. THAT and Insane Custom fees. Ordered a 50$ items once and the custom fee of 70$ What the hell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 He left it lying in front of house and signed it himself! So end of story... until now! ooops . .... didn' red cerafully the whole story. Sorry As others said. Ask him to pay you the 450 Euros. If not, report him to UPS, fill a claim, and then let him deal with the consequences of his acts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluemax Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 It would be fair that the driver pays you 450 EUR to compensate for package loss, but keep in mind that if you ask for more money than the package was insured for, he could go to the police and report you blackmailing him...

vafarmer70 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 That is crazy! I certainly hope he learned his lesson. I think he should have been fired, but I am glad you received some sort of compensation for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
