Everyone wants to get their Christmas presents on time - so we're revealing the best delivery firms to help you avoid the disappointment of an empty stocking.
We asked over ten thousand people about their experiences of online shopping, so we can tell you which are the UK's best and worst delivery firms.
Keep reading, as we can reveal which delivery companies leave a smile on your face and which fail to impress.
Best and worst delivery firms
The best delivery firm is DPD. It tells customers of their one-hour delivery slot in advance and lets them communicate with the driver in real-time if they won’t be home. Great if you want to avoid a trip to the distribution centre.
Royal Mail comes second, along with private, local and independent couriers. At the bottom of the table is Fedex. We reveal the full results below.
Table notes: We asked 10,505 members of the public in July 2015 about their experiences of shopping online over the past six months. Sample sizes shown in brackets.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

The figures don't show which will be the best at Christmas, it shows who was (supposedly) the best earlier in the year. Only one company on that list is duty bound to take in and attempt to deliver every item given to them.
