I placed my order well in advance…
I placed my order well in advance because it was a birthday gift for my husband, and we were due to travel abroad the day after the expected delivery. Unfortunately, the delivery took much longer than expected.
The parcel was eventually marked as a failed delivery, even though I stayed at home all day waiting for it. I contacted DPD myself and even offered to collect the parcel from the depot to make sure I received it before travelling, but they refused to allow collection or arrange delivery that day.
As the retailer, I believe MyOrigines has a responsibility to work with reliable delivery partners and to support customers when deliveries go wrong. Instead, I was left chasing the courier myself with no real assistance.
I ordered in good faith and planned ahead, yet I still didn’t receive the gift in time for my husband’s birthday. The whole experience was stressful and very disappointing.
I won’t be ordering again unless the delivery service and customer support improve.
