We get many posts like yours describing horror stories of how Evri deliver items.
However!
I've said it here before, we have the most fabulous Evri delivery lady. She's always on time, sends me a few messages per item to inform me of the parcel's journey, the date and time of delivery. Shame she cannot be cloned!
It does depend on the delivery person you have in your area, so yes, you have a ' bad egg' so you'll need to avoid Evri, select sellers who do not offer Evri as a postage option, or message the seller before buying to ensure they do not offer this service, sellers can completely exclude Evri if they wish, some will also do this if asked.
