And how exactly has your office done this?

There won't be anymore of the older 739 cards once they run out and the PDA doesn't let you move on until you have scanned the new ones

In what way a joke? I'm using them exactly as it was explained they should be used....without the need to write a thing on them.
Ok there's been an influx of people turning up at the DO asking where their parcel is.....even if I've left it in the same safeplace that I've used for the last 18 months but that sounds like a management problem to me. I'm using them exactly the way they were pushed to us

They are easier and less faff than the older cards

Apart from the "enclosed porch" issue they are far easier than the previous process? Although I don't get why we don't leave a card for the 1st delivery attempt, as without one then surely the customer just assumes we couldn't be bothered even attempting the 1st delivery?

I've heard of putting 9 random digits to bypass scanning the card for an enclosed porch.

You do leave a card for first delivery,when they scan code it says will try again next day
