DPD problem

Jony27 · 27 Aug 2011 at 20:27

well i got a monitor a couple of days ago which came with a 2-pin plug.
so i contacted the manufacturer which was BenQ to send me a 3-pin power cable.
anyway, DPD tried to deliver it yesterday but no one was home so they left me one of those piece of papers saying they tried to deliver it.

the problem is my nearest DPD depot is 30miles away and i dont drive.
i went on to DPDs website to try and arrange a re-delivery but they keep asking for my 7 digit colection card number but all i have in the card are
my phone number
delivery date
and 6 random digits beside a barcode.

and i cant seem to find a contact number in their website.
btw, i live in N.Ireland if that changes anything.

Who doesn't have a kettle lead spare? Serious question.

im currently using an adaptor, and by kettle lead, you mean using the one that comes with an actual kettle?

it would be nice without an adaptor though

and about contacting OCUK, i didnt get from here.

Not an actual kettle lead, he means a mains lead with IEC C13 connector...

DPD are the ones responsible for the recent demise of my last PC. I'm dreading my new one being delivered by them.

I don't know I presume the UK ones. Give them a ring on Tuesday and see.
