A little moan really..
I moved house at the end of March and I had household stuff I needed to buy and/or replace.

Online shopping is easier and at the moment safer I feel.
I was disappointed with the Hermes delivery man as he made a comment on Friday gone, something on the lines of “oh I’m always here how many parcels have you got coming?”.
I admit he was at mine delivering every day that week.
However, without mine and other peoples orders he wouldn’t have a job.
I felt like saying that to him but I kept quiet.
I just felt irritated because I shouldn’t be questioned about my spending.

I am irritated with hermes as I was expecting a parcel yesterday it was comeing between 2 and 3pm I was looking out for him my door didn't knock I gave up at 5pm this morning I had a message parcel deleiverd to neighbor at 3pm doesn't say which neighbor I don't think he came at all because I was sitting out the front around that time so now I need to find out which neighbor before I can phone anyone

I would knock on the neighbours and try locate it as Hermes are notoriously difficult to deal with.

I try avoid hermes, he kept shouting at door, delivery for and door number, so whole street heard mainly because it does take me 10 mins to get to door. Same with amazon they've usually got back in their van before I get to door and parcel on the step. Royal mail tends to leave it on door step but keeps an eye on it, delivering his letters till I get to it, think he knows its takes me longer as he waves after i get it.

He was probably just joking? Unless you live at the top of several flights of stairs lol...
I have another moan about deliveries though. I have an enclosed entrance stairway for myself and the next door flat. Many delivery drivers are not wearing a face covering to enter it and I feel they're putting us at extra covid risk. I don't generally answer the door (can't deal with people and trust my neighbour not to nick my parcels) but a few times I've bought large items or something needing a signature or age verification and had no choice but to answer... I get that if your front door is directly outside there's plenty of airflow but that's not the case here. It's been various different couriers as well, not just one company. -
To be honest it was hard to tell if he was joking or not but its quite off putting when someone says something like that, well I feel like it is anyway.

No one seems to know where my parcel is lol after 8 phone calls and two complaints

If it can’t be located I advise contacting the sender as it is them that have the contract with Hermes so it’s only them that could make a claim from them.

The company have done that now so waiting for hermes now
