DPD 'awaiting delivery of parcel'

ZedPowered · 7 Dec 2010 at 14:03

from what i have been told by a family member who works for DPD Awaiting receipt of parcel means the delivery depot are waiting for it to come in.

Thats correct. The guy on the phone said there is 4 messages you will get.

When they collect the parcel you will see 'awaiting delivery of parcel' this means it is at the 'main hub / sorting office'

When it is on the way to the local depo they will update the message and again when it is on the van to be delivered and finally once the delivery has been made.

Looks like they are 2 days behind which isnt too bad. Should get it tomorrow or Thursday hopefully.

Can you not view the signature to see who really did sign for it? Maybe a neighbour?

speak with OCUK and get it raised quickly.

i had an item delivered from a well known etailer who delivered through Parcelforce. (this was back in 2003).

I'd ordered a graphics card (7900gt i think) plus some ram and the delivery guy had forged my signature and left it on the doorstep (apparently) but it wasn't there when i came home. got a full refund but took over a week of prooving my signature etc

ok got it sorted

i'm so mad with dpd. the driver left the package outside my house, he forged my mum signature which he did wrong anyway. he didn't ring the door bell so i didn't even know it was outside from 8.22am has nobody has been out today. i'm just hoping the hdd isn't damaged due to being outside since 8.22am in this -5c weather
