Evri not picking up parcels for 3 days from drop off shops in my area

[puddytat42009]

Went to drop off a parcel with an Evri label from Simple Delivery only to be told that Evri haven't been collecting any parcels from my entire Weymouth/Dorchester area for over 3 days. Tried two other drop off shops to be told the same. Does anyone know why there is this problem and why can't Ebay send you a label for Royal Mail if Evrie not working down here?

if they stop taking them its best to opt out of using evri and only use royal mail

From the opposite end of the process, I have a growing number of packages accumulating at my local EVRI depot waiting to be delivered. Until recently, when I got a notification that a package had arrived at the delivery depot, it would be delivered that same day. One has been sitting there for three days and in the last couple of days, it has been joined by others.

Giving them the benefit of doubt, I'll assume that it is a shortage of drivers but in the back of my mind, I can't help thinking that nobody wants to deliver to areas that aren't densely populated because they aren't profitable.

This only happened a few days ago.
