Anyone else suffered incompetence at hands of the new Amazon Logistics delivery service;
this is their new in house service, that's being rolled out across country??

Web chat rooms show high level of dissatisfaction, and it seems it now surpasses one of
their other (current?) carriers YODEL for incompetence/indifference.
Users complained for years about them but Amazon carried on regardless.

I ordered 1 CD on Friday, advised delivery would be Monday.
Mon. morning e mail from Amazon confirming del'y that day; postie comes at lunchtime,
no CD.
E mail around 1400, saying Amazon had failed to deliver; wording is unclear, as it doesn't
actually say they had attempted a physical delivery, just that they'd failed, which er was true sad.gif
I see in order tracking details, its being done by he new Amazon Logistics.
Nearest depot I could find was Oxford, though Tracking Info shows it's out
for delivery from Bristol.

E mailed Cust Serv saying no one apart from R Mail had been.

Tuesday, same routine; e mail 1st thing saying would be delivered later; another after lunch saying they'd failed.

Amazon then refunded £1.49 p+p

Wednesday, same morning e mail, and anonymous white scruffy van appears 1.15pm with CD,
and package covered in multiple stickers by Amazon Logistics; shortly after another e mail,
saying they had been unable to deliver.

Doesn't tie in with their claim to trying to be world's most customer centric company!

I'm sure their cost from R Mail for 1 CD is a fraction of what we'd pay, but obviously
some Finance wallah sees a few pence saving by not using them.
