They delivered my package from Poland to Germany swiftly. Though the package was heavy, the driver helped in carrying it. Driver was very fast too on delivery day. Well done GLS.

I saw a big difference the last one or two years. First was the worst courier. But now I could say that it is one of the two best couriers.

Absolutely unacceptable delivery…

Absolutely unacceptable delivery experience. I had a package from OTTO meant for address 111A, with clear, specific instructions to leave it right by the front door. Instead, the driver just dumped it at my neighbor's house (address 111)—which is a completely separate property!

Luckily, my neighbors are honest and decent people, so they called me to pick it up. Otherwise, the package could easily have been lost or stolen. Ignoring explicit delivery instructions and house numbers is pure carelessness.

OTTO, you need to vet your delivery partners much better/ that includes the Hermes too/. One star is generous for this level of incompetence

Fake Delivery Attempts

I was waiting for a parcel at my home. The parcel tracking showed it will arrive soon, i waited but i received an email all of a sudden that I was not home so the parcel cannot be delivered and i have to receive it from another location. What kind of a service is this. If you cannot deliver then don't take the orders and parcels. This is absolutely rubbish service.

Appointments impossible

It’s hard to imagine anything worse. First, you get emails saying the delivery is delayed—giving a later time—and just after you’ve rearranged your schedule, another email arrives saying "delivery tomorrow." Planning is impossible here; I do not recommend them.

They do not consider my observation about the number of the address that was wrong and I didn't have a chance to change this information even at the start of the process of the delivery.
