Delivery drivers throwing items over fence and saying delivered

I had a delivery of three sunglass holders, not a high value items, but its the principal.

 

The Evri driver took a photo of standing outside my office steps behind the railing on a Friday after the office was shut as proof of delivery , clearly as he did not want to come back when the office was open on Monday. He then threw the parcel over the railings so they were lying on the steps down to my office.  I have a video of him doing tis which i have offered to the sellers, that evening some random people walk past the office and one of them climbs over the fence and rips the parcel open  and take the contents, again i have a video of this happening.

The seller claims the deliver company have say the item has been delivered safely, i have sent them photo evidence and  have left it in a safe location, i raised a complaint through eBay which i seemed to be talking to  machine as the seller as they never took note of any of the information. It s now been closed by eBay as the seller has proved delivery, surely taking pictures standing outside locked gates and locked premises is not proof of delivery, especially when i have the video evidence.  The deliver drivers have just starting doing this in the last few weeks and if every time my items get stolen with no redress in point in buying through ebay. I complained to Evri but have not heard back from them either, what can i do

It’s not eBay’s fault if a delivery company behaves in this manner.

 

why if you saw the items being treated in this manner did you leave them for someone that evening to hop over the fence and take them? Surely you would have got the package as soon as this had happened?

Evri drivers only get paid if a parcel is delivered, hence why they threw it over the fence as your office was shut. Best take your evidence to Evri and show them,as they are the one's that can take action. 

If your not going to be around/office shut, then make alternate arrangements for delivery and best not choose Evri for your deliveries 😉

I was not in the city, I was 115 miles away in Edinburgh so could do nothing annoyingly otherwise I would have driven down to the office and opened up and got the parcel
