Parcel Couriers

I thought i would ask: Which courier company do you trust the most and why? Which courier do you trust the least and why?

 

Me personally i would always prefer to use UPS or DPD having always had great service from them. The ones i would be least likely to use would be Yodel, i have had percels persistently turn up damaged from them. Even resulting recently in a power supply becoming dead within it's first 10 MINUTES of use. Which i suspect was thrown around and the internals got damaged.

My preference also goes out to DPD, after that are UPS, DHL, Fedex and PostNL followed by GLS. My least favourite one is the local postal service Bpost, they often place the package in front of the door (even though it is against their policy) and I've had some packages stolen like that.

I used to not care, but, ever since moving to a different house, I've found UPS to be amazingly reliable in this area. Invariably, they get here between 11 PM and 12 PM every time I order something.

As I live in Denmark I trust Post Danmark with all my packages and letters. I have also had a good experience with both Royal Mail and Postnord.

If you want to join a really cool Discord chatroom with some great guys here from LTT and outside this community then PM me!

DPD, I like a text letting me know which hour of the day my package is coming, also you can watch the delivery vehicle live on GPS to see where it is in relation to your house on the map which is pretty cool along with info on how many deliveries he has/what number yours is/how many drops before you.

 

Useful if you're on a tight schedule waiting in for that important package before going out, so yea DPD wins for me.

Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.
