Re: Too afraid to order!
If the packages are being delivered to the wrong address people probably just assume that if they keep it the real owner will just get a refund. Amazon has kinda made people assume that since that seems to be their policy. Pity people don't realise not every package comes from Amazon. If you could figure out where the packages get misdelivered maybe (and that is the key word) the people there would be willing to give you the package, but I wouldn't count on that.
Anyway, a doll is an expensive item and *should* require a signature on delivery. If they don't obtain a signature then surely you'd be able to claim from UPS (or any courier) for failing their duties?

And is there a similarly named street in your town? I've got a friend who lives on "Smith Avenue" and his packages regularly go to "Smith Street" (not the real street names, but you get the idea).

Actually, what's going on in my part of town here in the U.S. is UPS a lot of the time will drop off a few packages to just one address, instead of delivering them to the correct addresses. I was told that sometimes UPS drivers get behind schedule, so to save time, they will just drop off a bunch of packages to one address. I haven't ordered anything online for a long while, but I am hoping that now they have a new contract, there services will be better. I do have security cameras around my house, so if anyone walks up my driveway, or comes near my house, my cameras will record them. But I think I will go with the UPS store. I'll have to look it up, and hopefully there's one here in town, or close by.
Re: Too afraid to order!
UPS is a garbage company and I wish they are getting sued a lot. We have the same problem in the montreal area. They are also known to not delivery big boxes because the driver don't feel like putting the effort. I never had a single issue with FEDEX, USPS and Canada Post. But everytime I am beeing told that UPS will deliver, I roll the dice. In my experience, I fail to receive the package 1 out of 3 times.jms033 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 8:56 amNackers wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 12:20 am Either that or you have awful neighbours or some serious porch pirates in your area.

I guess it depend if your area has a good manager or not.

Re: Too afraid to order!
And then what? They think it is up to the homeowners of that particular address to deliver all the other packages to the appropriate people on behalf of UPS?! Or it's just pure laziness on their part and dereliction of duty? That really sucks either way!jms033 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 8:56 am Actually, what's going on in my part of town here in the U.S. is UPS a lot of the time will drop off a few packages to just one address, instead of delivering them to the correct addresses.

Re: Too afraid to order!
Ugh! That's awful. Sounds like a product of pressure from online sales (*koff* amazon *koff*) on the higher ups to guarantee fast delivery. Which filters down to overworked drivers. I'd much rather wait an extra day or two than have drivers dumping my packages somewherejms033 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 12, 2023 8:56 am Actually, what's going on in my part of town here in the U.S. is UPS a lot of the time will drop off a few packages to just one address, instead of delivering them to the correct addresses.
