Any company that changes it's name because they were so shit the reputation was shot should be avoided

before last christmas my nephew was working at Evri Hub, seem to remember a figure of 300,000 parcels go missing, a week, a month I forget exactly without asking him again but it was mad

Evri does not report losing 300,000 parcels in a single incident; however, the company admits to losing approximately
eight million packages annually. This figure represents about 1% of the 800 million parcels they project for delivery each year

Oh well 1% is fine then if that's even true figure

Evri admits it will fail to deliver 22,000 UK parcels EVERY day

Following a legal complaint, the article has been amended since publication to clarify that the figure of 22,000 represents parcels which Evri predicts will fail to be delivered on time, as opposed to parcels which will never be delivered, and say that the majority of delayed parcels reach their intended recipients. We apologise for any misunderstanding.
Dubbed Britain's 'worst' courier, delivery company Evri has promptly admitted that it will lose eight million packages this year, despite only being two months in.
Of initially missing parcels, some will eventually make their way to their rightful owners after a delay but others will never arrive due to being stolen or damaged.
The parcel giant estimates it will be responsible for some 800 million packages in 2025, and predicts losing track of one per cent of them.
And while that figure seems relatively harmless, it amounts to 153,846 lost parcels every week and a staggering 22,000 lost parcels every day.
Professor David Edmundson-Bird of Manchester Metropolitan University told The Sun that when businesses expand too quickly without proper adjustments, customer service is often the first soldier to fall.
And with Evri expecting 70 million more parcels than in 2024, when it delivered roughly 730 million, the potential effect on customer service has come into question.
However, the ever-growing courier counts late or lost parcels in the same category to form that one per cent.
A recent £32million investment funneled into the company's operations and customer services department is behind the 99 per cent success rate, it claims.

A lot of the Panorama documentary was Evri Lawyers saying that the figures are not valid and have no standing, the Government now need to do a proper independent investigation which is totally in the Public interest.

The Government do a Proper Independent Investigation! It would be nice to see one of those but it's like finding Dentist for Hens :LOL:

Looks like that £32 million investment isn’t really making much of a difference… they just can’t keep up with the sheer volume of parcels.

On the other hand...... Post Office
My wife did a crochet blanket for a new born. Took her over 30 hours.
We sent it "Signed For" with Royal Mail.
Point of order - the Post Office and Royal Mail are two separate businesses and have been for over ten years.

Wonder where all the ‘missing’ parcels go, after all, when my glasses go missing they are usually in a countertop somewhere, but a few million parcels?
That’s not missing, that is theft on a massive scale.

People are finding parcels dumped and have now started FB groups to try get the parcels delivered themselves. Absolutely shocking, I'll be surprised if Evri recovers after this Christmas fiasco

Evri - Apollo Global Management isn't owned by a single person but is a publicly traded company with major institutional investors like Vanguard and BlackRock, alongside significant stakes held by its founders and executives, including CEO Marc Rowan, Co-Founder Josh Harris, and former CEO Leon Black, who remain key figures. The firm's ownership is distributed, but these individuals and large funds are top shareholders.

Pretty much everything has Blackrock and Vanguard behind it and many of the other usual suspects

I ordered a sound bar from Amazon and they used EVRI (they didn't give me a choice). It sat in the local depot for a month and was then delivered, except by the time it got to me, it was a brown bag with 3 empty Airpod boxes in it! Amazon had already refunded me by that point. Nuts.

Blackrock?

Say no more…

Even mentioning them on a forum like this will trigger a response somewhere. That may sound paranoid but when you look into their other ‘activities’… well, let’s just say they don’t have the interest of the average man as their core goal. As long as you don’t try to move away from the ‘all oil must be traded in US dollars’ like Saddam Hussain/Assad/Gaddaffi did, or if you refuse to allow the IMF to dictate your economy, like Iran and N Korea, you may not get a knock on the door, or a full-scale invasion and regime change.
Sorry to make Evri’s crap service into a ‘supposed conspiracy theory’ but the big things don’t happen without changes at the bottom..

Last night I was seriously thinking maybe I shouldn't mention the names here. It's just everything you see and hear like the nonsense with ebay, I get messages they are updating MY listings for simple delivery, the listings I'm supposed to be in control of!

Look at the crap happening with Autotrader wrecking car dealers with it's Deal Builder and there all asking why is this happening and my answer is BR, BS, VG, SSC, JP M etc

The self destruction of EU car makers
What ever is happening with these huge corporations there is one common denominator when you look at the Major Shareholders it's the same ones every time in nearly every single business, so EU car companies self destruct, doesn't matter because these lot are invested in all the Chinese car companies anyway
Those 2 rivals Coke and Pepsi, same investors even if companies ran separate they are one and the same
BS like this on Youtube Bill Gates PANICS After Windows 11 Faces GLOBAL Backlash Windows 11 is facing its biggest backlash yet. yes he has shares in it still but he's busy elsewhere but again same old lot invested in it
Ya Deliveroos, Just Eat, Uber etc etc same lot

I hear ya Dave and apologies but at same time I think at some point people need to wake up from the little bubbles they're in and see whats going on
Won't mention them again here

On ebay or Facebook marketplace probably. The amount of dodgy sellers that are selling gift cards constantly or generic stuff that cannot be tracked. There are probably gangs operating on an industrial scale.
I suspected one person I bought a scabby PCB from years ago and he had at least x3 ebay accounts. Googled his name and he was linked to selling a very expensive watch which had been stolen. I think the watch was valued at something like £8K. Obviously someone that deals in stolen goods but he didn't make the same mistake next time as now dealing in generic stuff like gift cards.
