Has anyone ever had somthing delivered to them by a courier on time??
Im waiting for a new exhaust and have been told it will be AM delivery-whats the odds on this actually being on time!! EVERY time i have waited it has allways been late or not delivered at all.

Is this a common thing to all you peeps out there???

We had some stuff delivered by Argos Direct just before Christmas. Took the whole day off work, and both deliveries had arrived by 9am

You can bet however, that if I'd have just taken the morning off, they wouldn't have arrived until mid afternoon!

Parcelforce - parcelfarce more like.. they delivered a piece of fragile electronic equipment to my house whilst I was out. They kindly placed it in my back garden, only thing was they had to throw it over a 6ft fence to get it in there..

I got TNT to deliver my Xmas pressies to my brother in Dubai. I was very impressed, they picked up the parcel when they said they would and 3 days later the pressies turned up in Dubai at the time they said they would.

Mind you cost more to send the parcel than the contents cost!

Were any of you at Oulton park when DHL sponsored the BTTC? They made a big fuss one year, their logo was everywhere, a hot air balloon above the circuit and the jewel in their crown was to be a parade of about twenty DHL vehicles, around the circuit!

Anyway, we were stood at Druids, watched the convoy go past, then heard a massive crunching noise We turned round and saw that the big wagon at the back of the convoy was complety wedged under the bridge They had a right job getting it out, had to let the tyres down and everything
