The Carrier did not ring my door even I was at the home

Although I was at the home, the carrier did not ring my door and did not try to leave it. Directly they mentioned we could not find the receiver at the home but this is not correct. I was at the home all day.

The worst delivery service on the planet

GLS is the absolute worst delivery service I have ever had the misfortune to use. They lied multiple times about attempted deliveries and I still have not received my package. I will never purchase from a company which uses GLS to deliver ever again.

Unbelievably bad service

Unbelievably bad service. I’ve been waiting for my package since 12:30 p.m. I even rescheduled my day so I could be home today. The tracking app says there are still two stops left, then “your package will arrive shortly,” and then: “There was no one home.” Even though I was waiting. I even looked out the window, and the GLS truck wasn’t even here at the door yet. The employees/drivers are just terrible and unmotivated…

Use ANY other service besides GLS

Worst company on earth, I gave my full correct address and they wrote "further address information required" then returned my package to sender. When I tried calling their automated bot said it's my responsibility now and to contact the sender and hung up. Disgusting incompetence and 0 responsibility. Hope it goes bankrupt as soon as possible.

Two weeks, when it was supposed to be 2 days, still not delivered

A product that was supposed to be delivered in 2 days. First it proposed to change the delivery to a parcel shop, use two more days to say the changes are being implemented in the system, then say it was not possible to leave it at the parcel shop(no explanation), and the package is now “At the parcel center” for two weeks and half. No one answers to my emails, there is no phone number to call, only an automatic machine.

This is the worst service ever… unbelievable

[edit to answer 24/07/2036] The customer service did answer after this, but most replies were generic (might be even bot generated) in the end just wasted more time, the system kept saying it would be delivered the next day but never was. Now it is doing the same but for returning to the sender.

Unbelievable…

Nobody tried to deliver my parcel to me, nobody was ringing in my doorbell. But delivery guy marked my parcel as it was refused to accept which is not true. I tried to contact support three times but nobody has answered to my emails during three days already. The worst delivery service ever. My parcel was from France and now it's gonna come back to France.
