grejyedi Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Have been eagerly tracking my first rep purchase through the EMS tracking. Cleared the customs yesterday and sent to the depot, so eagerly waiting for it at home. (Incidentally this is the Chinese site, the number doesn't come up on the UK site) Imagine my surprise when I relooked at the tracking site and it showed delivered attempted. Went to the door and no note. Rang them up and they said the driver could not find the address and they would try again tomorrow. Asked them if he couldn't find it today what would change between now and then? I got them to put my mobile number on the parcel so he's hoping. There depot is miles away from me overwise I would go for it, andI guess they may have to. The mystery is why it is only Parcelforce who can not find the address. it is a large block of flats with its own post code. Everybody else can find it.

bamcky2k Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 more likely the driver had a shed load of parcels this time of year, took one look at the block of flats and thought "too much time to find the flat, too many parcels yet to be delivered...on to the next delivery..." i had exact same problem over and over when i used to live in a shared house as a student, to the point i ended up getting things sent to my parents address...

djrl1 Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 That's no surprise. I can't name how many times I have physically watched my postman walk up to my door with nothing but a notice. No knock on the door, no nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
