OT: Ocada fail

was that Evri's fault? Round here, Evri are fine.

And here, as they have been since before the Hermes days. It all depends on the staff.

Six month old Ocado TV advert

"geographical restrictions apply"

Show me an advert. from June 2022 which says the same thing. Six months old means nothing. And that is not the advert. which was played in my region ad infinitum.

I see a pattern ...

Same here, it does seem to depend on the local driver, it was noticeable a few weeks ago when part of the round of our regular chap was allocated to a new person. She unfortunately got in a pickle by locking her keys in her van on her first day, smashed the side window to get in then panicked about having an unsecured vehicle full of parcels. Was posting on local FB apologising . Took several days to sort out. Fortunately we still retain our regular chap but it is noticeable that he only handles smaller packages, large ones that would soon fill his estate car get brought by another person in a large van, he has been known to reschedule if running late.

Ok.

Oh, you poor wee mite! You really do feel wronged.

He needs his head examining, as he apparently expected a sympathetic response.

Have you moved since the first asking? :-)

Its not uncommon IME. We used to get Ocado deliveries at my last house but after moving about 2 miles away, they could not deliver here.

Yes, they should have delivered the Tesco Express a replacement gadget either same day or very early the next [from when it was reported broken].

Round here it's becoming the most posted Facebook Local Group thing. Typically "Evri say they delivered my item, and here's a photo of the doorstep, but it's not my doorstep - anyone recognise it?"

Shrug. You win some, you lose some. Moving on...

I can 'rely' on Evri to 'deliver' by dumping the parcel on the doorstep without bothering to ring the bell or knock. The only way I can tell that there is a parcel out there is if I check my emails.

"Your parcel has been delivered!"

All too common. 'handed to resident'
