Has anyone ever made use of this service?
It's complete and utter pointless bobbins from my numerous attempts of using different versions over the years.
Most emails telling me of my order and supplying a tracking number lead to a blank page.....or ones that do show any information just say it's on the way

How much did this service cost then?

Waste of time and sometimes they even try to get you to ring a premium rate no. to find out why
your parcel couldn't be delivered  |

Most are a mere bagatelle but there was one company, might have been Yodel/DHL perhaps, where it told you the amount of deliveries the driver had to make that day and where you were numerically on that list. It even told you that he'd just dropped something off in Wandsworth, his next delivery was in Battersea and he'd be with you after that.
Impressive. |

Yeah there is one, could be DHL who send an email on the day of delivery that gives an hour window and gives the ability to change it. That's the best I've seen.
But that's different to the ones that confirm the order and give a tracking number two point of purchase that just offers nothing of use at all. |

I sent a parcel to Australia a couple of weeks ago via the post office.
They gave me a tracking number that told me the date and time of every movement of that parcel - from when I dropped it off at the Post Office, arriving at the local mail centre, arriving at Heathrow, arriving in Sydney and finally when it was delivered. |

I prefer Royal Mail if they can't deliver they leave a note and I pick it up at the sorting office
no problem. |

Hermes and Yodel have part time people who use their own car. You often see a car crammed full of parcels. I know a place where some of them go to sort out their route and they have them spread out over the ground. Surprising number of older people doing that job.

DHL is brilliant.
There is even a map showing where the van is.... Last few times I tried to track, with other companies, they wouldn't even accept the tracking number they had given! |

Agree DHL different league.
Got a parcel via Hermes saturday,tracking said delivery between 4 and 6pm.Arrived 4.30 so thumbs up for them. Worst ever was USPS.Got some golf bits from USA,tracking said they were in Florida for a couple of weeks after they were delivered. |

Ordered something from Amazon. Next day order was cancelled by the company so ordered it from another company on Ebay. Few days later order arrived from Amazon. Order from Ebay never arrived got an immediate refund. End result got the goods and didn't have to pay..which was nice.

I really can't complain about buying stuff off Ebay or Amazon.
They seem to get most of the stuff to me very quickly. As for Royal Mail. Recorded delivery has served me well down the years. |

Whenever I've bought something off eBay with tracking there's been no page that shows until after its bloody arrived

DHL is expensive as fook you are paying a big postage premium on whatever you are buying there. Royal Mail all the way for me....must have 500+ ebay items over the years sent via RM none ever gone missing. Although they did have a hick-up a few Xmas ago when it snowed bad in November/early December ....stuff came about 6 weeks late!
