NO-DRAMA Â Â 10 #1 Posted November 24, 2012 The postman tried to deliver a parcel to me on the 13th but I wasn't in so I arranged for a redelivery which was supposed to come on Saturday 17th.It didn't so I tried ringing woodseats sorting office but either its engaged or a message comes on saying "No one can take your call and you cannot leave a message"I kept trying through the week at all different times but it's always the same.So I arranged another redelivery online which should have come today but again it hasn't so I just wondered if anyone is aware of any problems with that delivery office or if anyone knows of a different contact number besides the 2551175 oneThanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It's not difficult is it.  Posties don't want to spend time knocking and writing out cards, we just want to get rid and be on our way.

Three times this summer I arranged a redelivery online, 3 times they failed to deliver. Complaints are met with a pathetic sorry but no explanation.

It's not difficult is it.  Posties don't want to spend time knocking and writing out cards, we just want to get rid and be on our way.  Back in the real world people have jobs, and 90% of the time when you order something you can't choose when delivery will be.  or should we all pay through the nose for 'next day delivery' just to save the postman 30 seconds?  Whats that?? You've spent all day waiting at home for a 'next day' parcel only for it to not arrive - well I am surprised!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
