In these cases we can look over the possibilities to move the package to correct Servicepoint if you contact us.

You are always welcome to contact our Customer Service so we can look into this further. You can reach us at 0771‑345 345, mon-fri 8–18. You can also chat with us at www.dhl.se/freight, where the chatfunction is down in the right corner.

8 days delayed so far ....

8 days delayed so far ! ( distance between dhl terminal and delivery point is 8 ( eight) km !!!
Despite my screenshot of terminal's promissed delivery 1-3 days , dhl claims , they have 30 days time .........
Deep disapoointment !!!!
👎👎👎I spoke with the agent by phone, I also received three or more emails and each explanation is different, DHL gets lost in the statements.
The agent promised to deliver that shipment tomorrow morning ( i needed it yesterday ), May 19, 2026. The conversation is recorded by DHL. I'll see what happens next and what dhl's next explanation will be like...

They say they can’t find the address…

They claim they can’t find the address that is in a major city and then lie about having called us, saying we didn’t answer. Absolutely appalling!!!

Ignored Delivery Instructions & Really Poor Customer Service.

DHL failed to deliver on the day they said they would and at the time they said they would. Minutes before the delivery time they cancelled. They then ignored the delivery date I requested and just delivered the package the next day. Really poor customer service!

Rather good experience! Used the services many times. Always on time and you get notified via e-mail before the arrival. This is something that many dont do here in spain. I always use DHL when ordering car parts from US. They do everything for me and answer fairly quickly in whatsapp.

Service point and dishonesty drivers

I received a message about a delivery from DHL via WhatsApp. At no point did I give permission to be contacted this way, and it wasn’t sent to my official WhatsApp account.
The second issue was with their website. I was repeatedly asked to select a service point location for my delivery, but the system simply wouldn’t work. It was only later, after the driver falsely claimed they had been to my property and couldn’t deliver because I wasn’t home, that I understood why. My package was not eligible for delivery to a service point. It’s disappointing that DHL failed to recognise this, for certain packages.
I also know the driver did not attempt to contact my home. We have a digital telecom door system connected to a mobile phone. If someone calls and we’re not home, it registers as a missed call. There were no calls recorded that day. While it’s possible someone could have let them in. On previous occasions, I’ve stayed home expecting a DHL delivery, only to receive a message saying the package had been taken to a service point instead. This may be quicker and more convenient for drivers, but if you’ve paid for door-to-door delivery, that’s the service you should receive.
DHL needs to improve how they track delivery attempts and provide proper proof that a genuine attempt was made.

Unfathomably bad

Unfathomably bad. I received a notification of a vital delivery (passport) via WhatsApp (!?) on a national holiday Friday, after closing time.
The delivery is due anytime on Monday the whole day. No "window". Of course I'm not home that day. I try contacting DHL (The website is scrambled garbage on a mobile) but they're closed until Monday !

The only reroute option is via Malmö (a 3hr round trip) despite there being 5+ DHL service points in my city.
DHL customer services is closed until Monday.
Stressful and infuriating.

Oh my lord, HOW has such a huge logistics company become so bad?

Excellence never delivered

Information to DHL Domestic Consignment ID 8456540833
Have been told my item was coming for the last 2 days, have waited over 48 hours now. It has cost me time and money.
To DHL do not tell me you are sorry, Because you're not
DO not say "We take your feedback seriously so that this can be reviewed and improved", because DHL doesn't.
Do not ask me to contact DHL and explain the problem, because DHL should know the problem, do they look at their own tracking.
DHL are an amateur outfit not fit for purpose.
To anyone thinking of using DHL, stay safe, stay well away.
I bet DHL have a good laugh at all the 1-star comments on Trustpilot

Dear Raymond,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I fully understand the disappointment when we do not meet expectations and I sincerely regret how this has affected your trust in us — especially that you feel feedback is not taken seriously by us. We truly value customer feedback and see it as an essential part of improving our service. While our goal is always to deliver a reliable and positive customer experience, we are aware that we do not always succeed and it is important for us to learn when that happens.

I am grateful that you took the time to share the shipment number, which gave me the opportunity to look more closely into what happened in this case. I fully respect if you prefer not to be contacted; however, it would mean a great deal to us if I could reach out to you . I will send a separate message here via Trustpilot and hope you will consider replying with your contact details.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Best regards

Unreliable Opening Times – Poor Experience

The listed opening hours for Saturday indicate 10:00–18:30. However, I visited the store twice—once around 10:00 AM and again at 10:30 AM—and it was still closed on both occasions. This was very frustrating and inconvenient. The store should ensure that its published hours are accurate and that it opens on time. Overall, a very poor experience.

Say they tried delivering while they did not

Used to be a great service, but now this is what happens: I get a notification that a parcel will be delivered on a certain day so I sit home the whole day. In the evening I get a message that ‘the customer was not home so we couldn’t deliver’. I was home, and nobody arrived at my door.
‘We therefore leave the package at a service point where you can pick up’, and they leave at a point that’s quite far away from my home and the package is a large box inconvenient to carry. There is however available a service point much closer to my home, but they choose to leave it at a more inconvenient spot.

Dear Nat,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
I’m very sorry to hear about the inconvenience you have experienced with this delivery. I understand how frustrating it is to stay at home expecting a delivery and then receive a notification stating that the recipient was not available. This is certainly not the service we aim to provide and I apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Your feedback is important to us and to better understand what happened, I would need some additional information from you so we can look into the matter further. I will send you a separate message here via Trustpilot and I would appreciate it if you could respond with the shipment number and your contact details.

I look forward to hearing back from you with more information!

'Express' is not even a metaphor

So I was supposed to receive a package handled by DHL " Express" from a close city about 2-3h Drive.
Package was dropped at the service Point on the 29th , days before the Easter holidays.

Days ,weeks later I find out they took my package on a vacation to Germany while I am here in Sweden, package is now having a blast since it won't even come today( 7th even thou " a supervisor made a note and said we will look into it and lied straight to my face and gave me false information.

I see so much similarities between DHL and the IOF.

And I'll say it again: if they ask you to scan your driver's license for identification when u want to pick up a package from a delivery Box, just ask any AI chat to generate barcode and it'll open that box.
