Pure incompetence

Pure incompetence. Three times they were supposed to drop a package for me on Amazons behalf and every time they have said they cannot find my location. Although on the same day two seperate DHL packages were successfully delivered.

How can a company with such a terrible track record still be functioning. How are we willing to accept such mediocrity.

Package left outside building

Hello
The courier left the package OUTSIDE the entrance to my apartment building while I was home and did not ring my apartment bell or any other contact!!
I was surprised to receive email notification that package has been delivered while being at home !!
Considering package was in OEM packing and visibly over €200 value it could have been stolen or misplaced .

I was at home waiting for the package and it didnt arrive

I was at home waiting for the package, nobody arrived and I got the message saying that I wasnt home when I clarealy was and was waiting for the package. I order this product specifically online to not have to deal with carring this product around, speacially during working hours, and ordering with GLS made me do excatly that. terrible

My orders are never delivered on time

My orders are never delivered on time. They always make up excuses—like claiming the recipient wasn't home when they didn't even try to deliver—and these constant lies are frustrating.

The worst shipping company I have ever…

The worst shipping company I have ever seen in my life; out of five deliveries, all five were delayed by more than two days. When traveling in Africa, I used companies that were far more professional.

Das schlechteste Transportunternehmen, das ich je erlebt habe: Von fünf Lieferungen kamen alle fünf mit mehr als zwei Tagen Verspätung an. Selbst in Afrika habe ich auf Geschäftsreisen weitaus professionellere Unternehmen erlebt.

La pire compagnie de transport que j'aie jamais vue dans ma vie, sur cinq livraisons, cinq avec un retard de plus de deux jours.
En Afrique j'ai utilisé en déplacement des compgnie beaucoup plus professionnelles.

أسوأ شركة نقل رأيتها في حياتي؛ فمن أصل خمس عمليات تسليم، تأخرت جميعها لأكثر من يومين. لقد تعاملتُ مع شركات أكثر احترافية بكثير أثناء تنقلي في أفريقيا.

Drivers lie and say your not home

Driver said parcel arrived even though I was at door waiting and this has happened 3 times now. ZERO customer service so no way to ask for help

They claimed I denied the reception and I was in my house the whole time, it never happened, then I tried the chat bot and it didn’t work so I decided calling to the contact number and I had no answer and now I’m not even sure if I’ll receive my order 🫠

It's the worst company in Germany

It's the worst company in Germany. Nothing comes on time and you get notifications about the postman trying to deliver you something but being unable to, whereas nobody has really shown up and you've been waiting all day long. Has happened to us several times.
