What is hacking you off today?

[Yorkshire Blue]

So I'm in the shed making a wood thing with the door shut. Mrs RHB waltzes in and says Sir David Amess has just knocked canvassing. He said that we had a beautiful cat and could he count on her vote. She said yes. I asked her why she said that and she said if Boris can lie through his teeth then so could she. Why am I hacked off? Because I missed the ****er.

I hope he asked to see the cat's ID before canvassing it.

I hope his pervert agent wasn't there or the cat is in big trouble.

And again. 3 hours before they're supposed to pick up. Will they? My money is on not.

No one to speak to, only some poxy online bot which is as much use as the proverbial chocolate tea pot. Serious avoid if you need to send a parcel.

 

[MK Shrimper]

And not. Dreadful, deadful service.

Peoplewho haven’t realised that doing everything online and never going to a shop to deal with someone face to face, and to see what they are actually buying..going online to save 10 per cent then wondering why it is all ****e and they can’t find anyone to do it properly anymore

A fox has been eating the peanuts I put out to feed the badgers in my back garden.

I will have to buy some specialist Badger mix.

or when they want a special cut of meat, a proper filleted piece of fish, artisan loaf etc and all they have left is their hyper market poly wrapped shopping.

These shops still exist in places where significant amounts of people can afford to pay extra.

 

[SARF]

These shops Still Exist when people can actually get out of their house to go there ..
another thing that hacks me off Is Large white diesel vans delivering boxes the size of shoebox full of plastic padding with a new sky remote control in it. Or
a fork ...

I've been unlucky enough to deal with Hermes. It was a birthday present in the parcel they had to deliver, ordered a week before I really had to order to be in time. What could go wrong? Dispatched the same day, all good so far. I chose the deliver to my nearest shop pick up point, as in the past, Hermes once left my parcel on my doorstep in full view, instead of knocking on any neighbour. So I get the text 2 days later to say my parcel is ready for collection. It's not there. Cut a long story short, it happened 6 times, a text saying it's at the shop to be picked up, it wasn't. You can imagine how annoying this was. Twice, the driver that day even marked it down as signed for by the customer, and I get the text saying I had picked up my parcel and thank you. The shop staff hadn't signed for it as they hadn't received it. So obviously the drivers faked my signature. Eventually the birthday date was missed. Why and where the parcel got to, nobody at Hermes could or would explain. Why the drivers kept saying it was at the shop, nobody could explain. I got it in the end, but it then became almost impossible to talk about it to Hermes. They don't want to know about complaints. Dreadful firm.

Yodel and DHL are just as bad in my experience.

got a stinking cold, got to spend the afternoon with KPMG as they are auditing my company and then I have to play darts tonight as I don't want to leave the team short FML

 

[RobM]

Daughter, doesn't drive so I'm Dad Taxi. That's fine, but...
Is she ever ready? No. "I'll pick you up at 10"...Now, if I'm being picked up, I'm waiting by the front gate for my lift.
If I'm picking her up, I'm waiting outside in the car. "Be five minutes!". You knew about this yesterday!

Common theme here - "I'm waiting". Grr!

Seems a common theme. The drivers are given unreachable targets and their customer care is appalling. Fortunately my Ebayer buyer is understanding.

As it happens our local DHL delivery guy is brilliant. He's even won awards for how good he is. He's always really polite and happy as well.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Well I've opted to drop it off at my local ParcelForce depot. More expensive but at least it'll be finally on it's way.
