Worst service in the world

The delivery guy doesn’t even come if it’s only one or two packages he just update as delivery attempted recipient not found. One day I confronted him when he took off after delivering my nearby dorm without delivering my package he said there’s no package on your name after 2 minutes he left, the dhl package got updated saying delivery attempted recipient not found. The customer service is worse than the delivery agents, they don’t listen, asks your delivery number says the status of your order (which can be found on tracking page by ourselves) and just hangs up. No greetings or prior questions. They really provide the worst for worlds biggest delivery company.

AVOID DHL AT ALL COSTS

The worst experience in Germany has been dealing with the less than acceptable service offered by DHL I was supposed to get my package on the 6th and it appeared on route at 7am , 8 am I get a notification that my package was damaged and it needs to be repacked, their chatbot is useless , today through the seller they have marked my package as lost! I believe they stole it, this is just one of the many bad experiences, including being called a racial slur at one of their filiales AVOID THEM AT ALL COSTS

Ridiculous mockery in the name of…

Ridiculous mockery in the name of service. The scanner (which is the main thing of a packstation) is totally blank and kaput, but nobody knows it! And they can’t even come to fix it cause it is Friday!!! I mean seriously?

The reason why people choose the packstation delivery mode is- they can withdraw the parcel whenever they want, right? And I need to wait for friday+Sat+Sunday + some hours of Monday (hopefully) just to get my parcel “mechanically”????
If you don’t have the infrastructure to maintain digitalised systems, then just don’t go for it.
And if you still want, then make sure you fix the machines promptly. Otherwise no point of having pack stations.

Very bad service

Very bad service , its the dhl responsibilty to send the parcel to the given address. Still it has been delivered to the branch. Why would we ask delivery at house if we can collect it in branch ???? Worst experience all the time

nightmare to do business with DHL!

nightmare to do business with DHL!
sent a one pager doc internationally(SF to Auckland) with the fastest service available, it's been 10 days, the system shows it's still bouncing between different US hubs.
escalated to "executive service", at the beginning they were saying all expected, then stopped responding. couple days later, they can't located my mail anymore

Embarassing experience

Chatbot speaks only German; impossible to speak with an operator; online tracking provides poor, if not useless, details; impossible to get updates on delivery, even if it says "delivered". Embarassing.

It is the classic example of: "We always did like this, and customers need us. We absolutely do not care about the service; they will pay regardless of the quality we provide. Which alternative do they have?"

Worst company stay away if you on schedule.

I ordered something on Friday. 1-2 business days Max 3 they said. Saturday it already started moving and since Monday the parcel is at a warehouse 20 minutes drive from my place. It’s Thursday and still nothing. SELL THE COMPANY TO SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY WANTS TO WORK AND DELETE THE EXPECTED DELIVERY SINCE YOU NEVER DELIVER..

Good delivery company

Good delivery company.
I don't want to say DHL is the best. I had one or two issues over the last 6 years, and all of them were solved successfully.

The most lazy delivery service

They are the most lazy delivery service I’ve ever experienced, every single time an order is delivered by them there’s an issue and half of the time they can’t even be asked to deliver it. If you can’t provide an adequate service then don’t idk why anyone would still use DHL as a courier they are absolutely rubbish.

They Will Not Bother To Even Try

Twice i had a package this week, twice this week they did not ring the doorbell. Tracker said the truck was outside on my street. Absolutely unacceptable and garbage delivery system. Please avoid yourself the trouble and never use DHL as delivery for good if possible.

Abysmal Service - Avoid!

Delivered part of an order on 22 Nov. Remaining order apparently on a van - promised Monday, then Tuesday then Wednesday (26th). It's now 5.45 pm and there's no sign of it.

Another order (placed same date) has apparently been lost in the warehouse. They've no idea where it is.

I'd give zero stars if that was an option.
