Wondered whether anyone knows about citylink

I'd say Tuesday.

benjo · 17 Jun 2006 at 17:57

Arnt there stages of the delivery? It will say dispatched, then something like "loading to docking station" then something like "on route to delivery destination"... so i'd say tuesday aswell

it'll come on the day it says 'goods loaded onto van for delivery today' without fail, citylink haven't ever missed delivery date on any of my orders, there best courier by far, reliable and fast

As far as I'm aware City Link don't pick up goods on Saturdays so unless you've got a tracking number that shows it progressing through their delivery network it won't arrive until Tuesday.

Saturday is not counted as a working day so expect your goods tuesday!

shame we didnt have them royal mail options we used to (for smaller stuff),

it will be tuesday for sure

If it says despatched that means citylink have picked it up from the warehouse.

Citylink do pick up on a Saturday _ i have ordered stuff last thing Friday evening and they were picked on Saturday and delivered on Monday.

OcUK does have quite expensive delivery, but it is very quick.

Royal mail are great (where I live anyway), shame they dropped em - good reasons though

royal mail in my experience are terrible, parcelforce are reasonably good, but citylink are the best of the bunch, so OCUK delivery charges are quite high, but you get the fastest service, and its pretty much 100% on-time, never had any damaged boxes or anything with citylink either, so its worth the premium IMO

I have never had any problems with Royal Mail, seem quick enough, but CityLink do the business too, deliver when they say they will, in my case anyway.
