DPD Appointed New Couriers for Overclockers UK

[Spie]

DPD appointed new couriers for Overclockers UK.

As part of our commitment to constantly improve customer service I am delighted to announce that with immediate effect DPD are now the official courier of Overclockers UK.

DPD were selected because of their outstanding performance within the computer trade and in particular their reliability of service and enhanced parcel handling resulting in greatly reduced damage claims. I am happy to report that a number of our delivery options have reduced in price and for heavy consignments the reduction is substantial.

All UK and UK Offshore delivery options are now live with DPD International being added this morning.

I thought I'd post an update on DPD's performance so far.

DPD are the most reliable courier I have ever experienced. Here is some data.

Claims
In the last week we have not had cause to make a single claim for loss or damage with DPD. Not one. With DHL we had to submit claims for a minimum of 10 instances of loss or damage per week. Sometimes this figure rose to 15.

Exceptions
In the last week DPD failed to deliver 0.6% of consignments on time which equates to 6 consignments per 1000 (most of these were the result of customers providing an incorrect postcode). DHL's exception rate was 3.4% which equates to 34 consignments per 1000.

Put simply, the change to DPD has resulted in a vastly more reliable and careful delivery service.

Will ocuk give the option for a direct swap at the door for some RMA items though? Or is that not possible? DPD do this with netgear, so be great, if I have an RMA I can pay a little extra and have the replacement sent with courier to swap at the door.

Not for free, no as it's quite expensive.

 

[Spie]

Does the free delivery remain?

Yes it does
