Amazon delivery

Maybe your next door neighbours don’t like you because they’re pissed off after accepting all your deliveries

Whilst I can understand your annoyance, surely delivery companies could be well with in their rights to charge customers twice for delivery if they have to try a 2nd attempt?

Nope. It's all factored into their original price (if they run their business correctly that is).

Probably why he didn't hear the door knocking, with that shit music in the background.

Have you knocked their door yet?

Bloody hell. Lovely bunch they sound..obviously wasn't aware of that.
Probably better off getting Amazon to retreive it then.

It was a double ended polony. Not that it's of anyone's business.

I agree with you, but could you imagine the nightmare Amazon would have if they could only deliver to the person it was addressed to? Your case is rare because, generally speaking, most folk are decent. Amazon lockers are your friend, I use them all the time and it is much less stressful.

Poor Amazon. They must be losing loads of money in their efforts to get posessions delivered to the correct recipient.

I'm just pointing you towards alternatives Steve. Mostly, people are out when deliveries are made - Amazon assume (correctly) that most people are on speaking terms with neighbours and that your issue is rare and not worth changing their delivery model for. It's probably factored in to their prices that people will ask for a second delivery in cases where the neighbours are feckwits (as yours are).

Easy. We also play the "guess which locker holds your parcel game". Time flies by so quickly in our house :hehe:

I would rather the Royal mail take any parcel back to the depot if I'm not in rather than leave it with a neighbour or in my bin.
Not that i dont trust my neighbours -
I just work near the depot😊

In our old house, the next door neighbour was a top of the range class of bird. I would often order things from Amazon, pretend to be out, and then knock her door when I knew she'd be wearing "something more comfortable".

The courts soon put paid to my harmless fun.

This was a story relayed to me by Sludge. Honest.

Agree.

I remember buying the college drop out, I've just put it on Apple music now..about 15 years old ain't it? Sure Woolworths was still open and I got it there.

Surely you have to meet them halfway and actually be there to accept it.? You can track it, or if your not going to be in leave a note saying don’t leave it with neighbours?

They would have to use a consignment number for it to be tracked. It would be scanned every step of the way.
They wouldn't just randomly turn up either..they'd send a txt the day before...so could arrange with someone trustworthy to take collection.
I get people get annoyed but sometimes people have to accept responsibility.

I think it's well within the realms of meeting them halfway by going to their depot to pick the parcel up. After all, it's not cost them any extra and I've gone out of my way to collect it. I expect no more than that.

Maybe I should also leave a 'note' for all burglars saying 'Please don't break into my house'?

Music is brilliant. It's helped me through many different situations including depression.. I'm not at all into classical music..but it really helped when my nan passed away..as strange as it sounds.

I think we all know it's next door., That's the problem. Keep up.

You lot are just not getting this are you. :hehe:

Serious-ish question to Mr and Mrs R -

do your neighbours also understand that y'all don't get on?!
If so then they are sh1ts for taking it in really.

If I had a real dong-dong feud going on with my neighbours, I'd refuse to take their parcel - not to be additionally awkward - but to make the situation easier for all parties.
Sometimes 'a favour' is far from being favourable.

Best thing they could do now is determine that you are home, put it on your doorstep, ring bell and walk away. :-)

Think your making a mountain out of a molehill. Just like Royal Mail, Amazon will have to pay to run a callers office, where they will have to pay for employees to retake yours and thousands of other peoples parcels who “can’t be in”, All free of charge??
I think the fact they’ve left it with the neighbours from hell is what’s really pissed you off. If they’d left it with old granny grey across the Rd you wouldn’t have even complained.

We don't have an 'across the road' or a granny, we're overlooking the Bristol Channel. Also I worked for Royal Mail for 15 years and yes, I still think the whole thing stinks in morality.
