Well good news for those unhappy with Hermes. They're looking for thousands of new drivers...

OK, New Hermes driver today.
Sat nav sent him the wrong way, but he saw the sign I put at the end of the "wrong lane" (that the last driver ignored for 6 months) read it and drove round the correct way. Had a chat and generally sounded like "he cared", seems like a decent chap and I wish him well with his round.Disco 3: Lotus Elise S1: Ferguson T20: Audi A2

Keep trying the tracking for my parcel so that I can be in for it arriving. Nothing since Saturday when it said there is a delay and it would be moved on within 24 hours....now Wednesday; do they have some sort of special time zone?

checked my wall mounted letterbox this morning to find a Hermes card saying my delivery was in the porch but no other details at all
1. why not ring the doorbell next to the letterbox
2. im not expecting a delivery
3. I don't have a porch
4. where is the package that was left in my non existent porch
they really are useless muppets2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

I had a DPD local delivery that I requested to be left in our porch, the parcel was actually left in the pouring rain outside one of our offices with no porch, helpfully they message you with a, “ rate our delivery!”DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

Well, today Herpes whole tracking system broke:
early on they were showing two parcels I'm expecting as "on their way", later they were "not on their system", and now one can't get to the screen to enter the tracking number due to a database problem with this ever so unhelpful error message:
this.$el.querySelector is not a function
Followed by the oh so helpful:

Track your parcel every step of the way
And hitting the "Track a Parcel" button on the same page it's back to the top. Rinse, repeat.Rob Smith
Silver rools OK
