  2. Sellers and consumers need to opt out in using them even if they are cheap! My eyes roll when I buy an item on ebay and the tracking updates with Evri. They are trash and treat the delivery workers badly, which in turn causes a knock on effect of bad service.

  4. I got a notification the other day that my parcel was coming from Evri, I sighed and said to the missus “that will end up anywhere but at our door” she promptly replied with “no my moms Evri driver is really lovely and good it will be fine”.

    She sent a picture of a handwritten note a few days later whilst I was at work. “Sorry I posted your parcel at -address- I knocked but they did not answer”.

  5. Straight up stole a £500 lego set from me

    I spit on them a thousand times

  6. Everytime I see an email from evri saying “we have your package” I always think, “yes, but for how long?”.

  8. How the fuck are they predicting this? Like you know you’re going to lose that many, just… don’t? Do something about it if you’re able to predict it so accurately 😂

  9. That’s 21,978 a day.

    Just how many parcels are they sending for that to be considered even a vaguely acceptable rate of loss?

  10. No surprises on that statement.. It’s pot luck if you ever do receive your parcel from them.. And even if that miracle should happen it will more than likely be damaged or waterlogged by being just left on your doorstep for passers by to steal or thrown over your garden fence or gate to land onto your concrete path or patio & smash into a hundred pieces..

  11. I had the opposite problem.  I tried to return a parcel to sender. Evri just delivered it to me again. Fucking clowns.

  12. “why’s FedEx so expensive”…. Not losing shit costs hahaha

  13. some how the “self employed / owner driver” model isnt working for them. Its certainly not working for the drivers.

  14. If they are so shit (because they are cheapo cheapo?), why do companies employ them…….surely driver fines are the way forward. Social media is full of pics asking “do you recognise this doorstep?” for failed deliveries…….it’s not funny anymore. Can these drivers read the addresses?

  15. Yodel is worse. Inherently dishonest, manifestly incompetent, and actively hostile to the customer.

  16. I was walking my dog couple weeks ago and and a man ran up to me asking me to ring the police, thought it was something dodgy at first. Realised he was an evri man who left his keys in his car when he got out of it and someone robbed it. So often you see them leaving the cars open, which yes you should be able to do. Unfortunately it’s not an ideal world and scummy opportunists are waiting. I suspect a lot of parcels are lost this way.

  17. They literally only rebranded themselves from Hermes to stop the negativity associated with the company; and that was only in March 2022.

    Royally shot themselves in the foot in such a small amount of time.

  20. I have stopped purchases on websties when i realise they were using Evri as the delivery services and will continue to do so.

  22. My evri delivery guy plays knock knock run. He will knock and buy the time I’ve got from the kitchen to the door he’s off. Nearly broke my ankle last time running down stairs

  23. Crazy that they already have a figure in mind for how many they’re going to lose.  Every lost parcel should be an aberration, not just business as usual.

  24. How serendipitous, I literally just got back home after spending the past 30 minutes in the rain tracking down the parcel Evri misplaced somewhere around my neighbourhood.

  25. They’re all shit. Amazon and Royal Mail are the only two that seem reliable

  28. when they say “LOSE”  they mean “stolen “by theiving bastard drivers.

    People take jobs with them, just to steal – this is well known.

  30. It’s good to set goals, get an idea of where you want to be
