DPD have marked my package from overclockers as out for delivery, i'm not home do they leave packages with neighbours if they can?

You will get an email with the time slot they are arriving, on that email you can choose to leave with a neighbour, change date, cancel, etc...

send them a webnote or post in the CS section on the forum and hope they get it before they try to deliver.

What I do..

I put my mobile number as the second line in the address. A note on my front door with 'neighbour / safe-place' instructions.

Didn't you have a thread on this DPD delivery yesterday?
Did it need another...?

Ultimately it might get left with neighbours, but it depends where you live, it may just go back to the depot.

Why did you choose a delivery date that you weren't going to be available for if you didn't know whether DPD leave in safe places or with neighbours? :confused:
