dont doubt you (some of my colleagues can be prats) but i can honestly say the process to deliver is quicker than not delivering and leaving a card. do not know what he/she gains by not delivering. a 2nd call for redelivery invariably takes longer. id check etc. the 4 miles is interesting though, there may be the problem. imagine doing 4 miles between deliveries on 100 drops. its supposed to be multi drop but generally turning into occasional drop, average 1 mile + between drops. and paid per delivery not hourly. sooner your done the better. only way to make money is speed up and do more deliveries.

hear hear, i also have worked for them for 10yrs+. deliver up to 100 items a day, usually clear 95% plus. only occassionally leave the dreaded cards when client requires mandatory signature or consider it not secure. if i post an item and it goes missing it costs me 150quid! bit rough when only getting about 60p for delivering it! Not the best job in the world for not the best company in the world but generally delivering good things to people and nothing underhand or in conspiracy with the csa
