Sorry mate, I'm not a convenience depot, down to the industrial estate over the other side of town to collect it after work you go. The street down from me there's a house with a sign on the door that says "in no circumstances leave parcels next door" I always wonder what happened, if something was left before and the neighbour kept it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, sold on probably. That's why the delivery drivers take photos of it being delivered now I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t prove what address it was delivered to, surely. The alternative being a picture of the door open, with the door number plainly in site, with the recipient (me) in full gimp outfit didn’t go down too well, I shouldn’t have suggested that in all fairness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 3 parcels at my door for 2 immediate neighbours, since Wednesday. My assumption would be that they would have come next door on Wednesday evening to pick them up, but so far nothing. When do they become mine? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do they become mine? In a thrilling twist, one neighbour has come to get theirs. Apparently she asked them to deliver it today instead but for some reason they didn't. Oh well. Neighbour 2 still has 2 boxes here but I believe they do not work from home so they are mine for the day at least 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do they become mine? I'd be careful with this situation, as I found out myself - your neighbours might actually believe the burden is now on you to deliver it to them. I took a parcel in one day and it sat for 4 days in my house, my neighbour caught me in the close thereafter and asked if I'd received a parcel for them. I said yes, it had been sitting there for 4 days and he snapped back "why have you been holding onto it?". It was then I realised that he actually thought it was on me to take it downstairs to his flat, despite him sitting in possession of a piece of paper telling him where his parcel was. I found that weird but it got me thinking maybe more people think that way, and maybe I'm in the wrong. But I'm not, these people are c***s. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 It seems like everyone has an entitled gobshite of a neighbour that they won't accept parcels for. My favourites are the ones who explode when they open their parcel and discover the contents are wrong. Like you should've opened the box yourself, known what it was supposed to be, and handed it back to the driver if anything was different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 They don't always leave a calling card, or it can get lost in junk mail. My neighbours don't take the pish so if they haven't been round for a parcel in a day or so I'll pop it round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
