Is it just me or Yodel too slow ?

[manyjamjar]

Past few item I bought which the seller used Yodel to deliver has been very slow.

Even the day after the package has been picked up from the collection point/store the tracking doesn't give definite day of delivery. Sometimes it just says "We have it"  for days and all of a suddent the guys at your doorstep.

Yodel are just awful in my opinion.
Why do their deliveries take 7 to 10 days when other couriers can do it within 3 days?

I am still awaiting a Yodal delivery 13 days and counting - shows they have it on the system?

The last three things i brought this year were sent with yodel and all took more than two weeks to arrive after they had been posted.

We don't use any more Yodel & Evri.  We had to sue Evri because it has been impossible to get compensation from them for lost parcels since December. They successfully deliver Next Day parcels but standard delivery parcels get lost 1-2 out of 10.

- Yodel has terrible service. We sent a parcel and after 4 days it was not delivered. Tracking showed that the parcel was in their warehouse. We contacted customer support with a question about when the parcel would be delivered, they told us that the tracking was lying and they had not received this parcel yet. 🤣This is ridiculous.

The only adequate services are Royal Mail for small parcels.

Yodel are very slow my parcel from Yodel not even collected by driver at pick up point for 3 days

Yodel, Hermes/EVRI, Amazon couriers are making online buying a nightmare. I find that only Royal Mail delivers safely and securely to me - in my hands. The others are employing cowboy drivers who are in such a hurry that they dump packages and run. Remember when you could look forward to receiving a parcel? Those were the days. I now get umpteen emails "updating" the current whereabouts but the info is useless because mostly the courier is moving my package between departments which mean nothing at all  to me. The only essential info is: (1.) Item has been dispatched. (2.) Item will be delivered -- date and time. 

Worst of all is the dreaded email advising "Your item has been delivered" when in fact it has not -- It really means it was dumped and you need to go look for it!

[therogernoble]

Agreed. 100%. 

Yodel and Hermes/EVRI are the chief culprits in making deliveries a very bad experience for buyers. 

Sellers should wake up to the amazing current services from Royal Mail, who will collect your outgoing parcels from your door and safely deliver them into the hands of your buyer.
