Amazon Prime Bargains - Chat Thread

Ordered a book to be delivered to my parent's house. App said delivered through the letter box. Couldn't find it when I visited, so opened front door. Was in middle of garden, clearly flung over the wall. Tried to complain using the customer service options, but don't think it'll go anywhere.

This is genuinely where the parcel was. Luckily it was dry...

If it was an an post delivery Customer.Services@anpost.ie will give out to the mail person on the route for you. We had one who wouldn't ring the doorbell for anything, just automatically got out the "sorry we missed you" redelivery/collection notice.

They still did it, but not nearly as often.

It was amazon delivery themselves.

Get on to chat, tell them you only found it after it pissed rain and it was ruined. You have the picture to send them. It might get them to get drivers to cop on a bit if enough people complain but I doubt it.

Have awful trouble with amazon deliveries lately (Especially so since amazon are doing it themselves rather than outsourced courier).

Neighbour was away for a few days. Delivery came. Box thrown over his side gate (despite saying fragile item on the box) and marked as delivered. Left out in the pouring rain. Neighbour asked me had i taken anything in for him. No i says. He checked with the other neighbour. then he asked me to see if it was left at the side of his house. Expecting whatever he got to be broken!

Missus bought a couple of things from Amazon. 2 different vans delivered them yesterday (number 17 & 20) within 5 mins of each other! Why not send them in the same bloody van😡

That's exactly what I'd be looking to use it for, do you reckon the 5m would be tall enough to do the gutters on most 2 storeys?

I was apprehensive that it wouldn't be stable as well. Was going to get a combination ladder but this one might be better.

I thought OPs signature was part of the post and it didn't fill me with a lot of confidence about the ladder.

I was talking to an amazon driver a few weeks ago in Cork and he explained to me the crap wages and hours that their doing, and I'm a courier so I know the scene.

So not surprising that the service is getting shabby.

I'm amazed they can keep drivers

I'm also experiencing frustrating Amazon deliveries from the Prime vans in the last few weeks specifically. They just drop the package outside my front door and walk away. No knock or anything.

App will either say "Handed to resident" or "Left in letterbox".

When I provide negative feedback on delivery via the app the only option I have is "Driver left package in my safe place even though I was home". Unfortunately the "Driver could not be arsed knocking" isn't a valid option.

Every other courier knocks at least, even if its a knock-and-drop.

Do you get to keep it? If so I call that a win. Clean it with a dettol wipe and grab a cable for cheap and job done

Cancel the prime and get a refund and then a refund on tbe echo, pick-up a cheap cable and it’s a win win

Warehouse/refurb items have always been refund and no replacement. Nothing new there.

Oh that's sweet.shes offering to sell me the cable for 17.99 sterling .

No I have maligned her .she will refund for the cost of the cable if I go ahead and buy it from that link sent. Phew.

Comfort bargain posted in the no chat thread during the week. No bargains in detergent that I could see, Tesco own brand can't be beaten
