now i put numbers on packages so that the buyer can be contacted if there is a problem with delivery am i wrong to do this or is this person just being anal?

 

Sounds like a good idea to me, but would the courier actually ring them?

I overslept 3 deliverys the other day, a phone call would have woken me up nicely!

 

The person IS being anal as I dont see the problem, but in the event on non-delivery its unlikely the delivery person would ring the person anyway, its always better to put a return address.
Even Royal Mail wont return mail now unless you put a return address on the back.

 

Ask if she would of been so ungreatful when she got a call trying to find her to sort a delivery time or to sort out a claim for damage etc.

 

I think it's fine.

 

i only do it as both royal mail and several courier firms sudjest it not my problem if thee actually to lazy to use the number

 

bloody good idea,you just cant help some people

 

i get a really bad feeling that im gunna get neg feedback from this buyer as well ive already left theres

some people

 

JUst make sur eu word your reply carefully so it doesnt make her out to be ungreateful etc. Just say u were trying to be helpful

 

Just tell them that the Royal Mail suggest you do this and it was done purely with good intentions.

 

already sent the reply mate

hi jo, i always put phone numbers on the address labels as advised by all courier companys and royal mail. its so that if they have problems with delivery they can get in contact with you! ie if they cant find the address or if the item gets held up in the system.

hope this helps explain. darren.


if i get another reply in an arsy tone my reply mood may change

 

Wankers, we do it all the time when we send goods out. Very good idea and i often have TNT or DHL ring me and say where the fcuk do you lvie??!!

 

Nuff said

 

UPS require you to put a contact number for the recipiant on the package or they can refuse to deliver it

 

when i send stuff out & they have supplied a mobile i stick it on the outside!

fook the miserable moaning coont!

 

ah well, if i get neg feedback i'll just reply with a link to this post

 

why the fuck would anyomne leave neg feedback they got the goods as deciribed and there happy,just because you put a contact number on the package there going mad,what would have happened if it had got lost as it does happen,forget it mate you can also reply to there feedback anyway they will only make themselves look silly

 

yea i know just dont really want some silly sod meesing up my 100% feedback thats all

there emails not even working, keeps bouncing the mails back just text them instead.

ive read some propper petty neg feedback reasons in the past though like, oh he overcharged me by 10p on the postage some people really need to get out more

 

You sound a decent guy Darren, your intentions are good! I'd buy off you in future.

 

just tell her not to worrie about the scary voice phoning at 3am in morning! i saw the number on the back an now im doin my best attempt at scary movie! "IM GUNNA GUT YOU LIKE A FISH"


LOL

thats the only reason that i can think of someone not wanting there number on the out side of a parcel!

only really effects women tho cus u can put my number on the outside i dont mind random calls! hell any calls! (no one calls me) .lol

 

Suppose she would be on your case if the parcel was in TNT's warehouse with the driver sayin
"Foook if i can find that bloody caravan of hers near the retail park and theres no contact number"

Wimen eh

 

its a good idea.

when i used to do courier work I would ALWAYS ring the number if there was one to find out where they were and if there was any point in deliverin the package as no point if they aint home.

 

--

 

Im gonna go against the grain & say Darren - your in the wrong to put the phone number on the package!

























Only joking It's actually a very good idea

 

I don't see a problem with it personally.

It was for her benefit really, it may be an idea in future to check whether the buyer wants their mobile number on the packaging, as some people do get a bit funny about stuff like this.

 

as for feedback darren always remember never leave feedback until its been left for you that way you cant go wrong

 

Im sure if you didnt put the contact number down and they were unable to deliver it, she would still be moaning!! You cant win!

Virtuallt all the parcels i send out have the contact number on the outside... I thought it was the 'done thing' these days!?

 

Speaking as a trucky i wish every fooker would put the phone numbers on it would make my life a hell of a lot lazier some of the companies we deal with at work dont even give you the address they just give you company name and county

simon
