2 asains trying to give me a packet

whats that part of the comment got do with it? apart from potentially being a tad racist

[DGP1]

strange ive just seen a lad from yodel come my door, 2 asains trying to give me a packet for around 9 miles away thinking it was mine my street is nothing like what they was looking for

another cock up horrible courier

leave it to the professinals lads

Is "2 asains" perhaps '2 assassins', '2 Asians' or 2 of something else ?

Maybe it was 2 Aslans........I wouldn't have said no to a talking lion

Had a punter ask me if I delivered to an address that was covered by the farms driver. The reason? Yodel guy couldn't find his way to the enormous water pumping tower on the hill above us and dumped it on an old dear who in turn was trying to palm it off onto me.

what would happen if you took in the missdelivered item! who is culpable?

[IcanthelpthewayIam]

what would happen if you took in the misdelivered item! who is culpable?

if you take it and keep it and benefit from the item, you are culpable and possibly liable for a theft charge, but if you take it, realise its not for you and hold onto it and wait for it to be collected and not benefit from the item then it would be the delivery person who is liable but thet would not have committed a crime

Yodel get paid 50p per delivered item. So im guessing for the money they get theyre not bothered about stuff being lost

this may sound mean and not decent but i think now we shouldnt be helping our competitors. i delivered a parcel the other day and the lady asked me if i could fetch them 4 parcels from across the road which had been left on the doorstop. I think it was thursday when it was pissing it down. they were all wet and broken. i did it anyway but a part of me thinks we shouldnt give any help to them so people can realise just how bad a service they can be. Of course not all are bad. DPD for example i think are good.

Why would you do this. The customer may then say you(the postie) broke them. I never help the competitors, won't even give them directions. I know I'm a grumpy cow, but get fed up with them door stepping and getting the blame. I now take photos just to cover my back. And to add insult to injury, they can't be bothered to get out off their vans to ask for directions.
