Professional help quick in tangeled situations

I have had an issue with international delivery but customer service helped me to solve it fast and professionally. The support provided was efficient, responsive, and handled with a high level of professionalism throughout the interaction.

In particular, I appreciated the clear communication and the willingness to address concerns promptly. This level of service not only resolved the issue effectively but also contributed to a very positive overall experience.

Really appreciate for help and assistance! Thanks Elin!

Your experience is important to us and I would like the opportunity to look more closely into what has happened. I will send you a separate message here via Trustpilot and I would be grateful if you could reply with shipment number and your contact details.

I look forward to receiving more information from you!

If you enjoy waiting for packages that…

If you enjoy waiting for packages that never arrive on time and tracking updates that make no sense, DHL is the perfect delivery company for you. “Out for delivery” apparently means “maybe sometime in the next few days.”

For a global logistics company, the lack of reliability is honestly embarrassing. Consistently late deliveries, poor communication, and zero accountability. Avoid if you can.

Home delivery is a joke

"We tried to deliver ... but nobody was at home"

Liars, you didn't even try. I was at home, I rearranged my entire day to be at home, keeping my phone nearby waiting for a call or message. How naïve. Now I have a choice between throwing another day out and schlepping to a service point in the middle of nowhere for pickup.

I'd be more understanding if the message was honest: "we're having too many packages today, we couldn't deliver yours". Lying just adds insult to injury.

I don't even blame the courier who is probably chronically stressed out, underpaid, and overworked. Don't bother saying you "apologize for the inconvenience", maybe give your workers better conditions so that they're less stressed out and more motivated.

Dear Martin.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I’m sorry to hear that your parcel was not delivered as expected. This was most likely due to a missorting at the terminal, which is something we continuously work to prevent.

I sincerely apologize for what happened and regret any inconvenience this may have caused you.

You are always warmly welcome to contact our customer service so that we can take a closer look at what happened. You can reach us at 0771 345 345, Monday–Friday between 8 AM and 6 PM. You can also chat with us via www.dhl.se/freight, where the chat function is located in the bottom right corner.

This is the worst company I had ever to do !
Always problems , always lies in the phone with them , they make you look stupid , I was waiting for document in my home address, paid bunch of money for this and they left the document at a service point 22 km away from my address, they doesn't care if you have something to go and pick it up and the worse the agent on the phone told me that I have chosen the document to be sent at the service point , was trying to be smart but he looked so stupid !!
I wish I will have never to do with them again !!

Completely unreliable

I have 3 different packages from 3 different senders. Who unfortunatly choose to use DHL. All packages are very late, with zero tracking updates.
No response from customer service.

Its cute that I get an answer here, asking for the same details I have already provided to customer service.

Behold my surprise, Patrik here lied about contacting me again

The worst delivery service I've ever dealt with.
My package was supposed to be delivered to my home (or at least this is what I understood). But I was surprised that they already chose a pick up point without giving me the option to change it.
I don't care what they agreed with the supplier. I had to pick that heavy package and walk with it for about half a kilometer since I didn't have a car. And I lost my gloves while carrying the package.

Hello Hani,

Thank you for contacting us and sharing your experience.
We are very sorry that the delivery did not meet your expectations and that you had to pick up a heavy package without being able to change the delivery location.

We understand that the situation was both inconvenient and frustrating.
When a package is sent, it is the sender who chooses the delivery method, but we will of course take your feedback on board. We would like to look into your case more closely to see what happened and how we can avoid similar experiences in the future.
If possible, please get back to us with the tracking number and contact information, so that we can help you further and follow up on this internally.
Thank you again for taking the time to contact us—your feedback is important and helps us improve.

Best regards

They "couldn't deliver" due to lack of time, and the person who was supposed to deliver my package happened to take care of it the next day so now it's gone and can't be found, I've called DHL for about 3 weeks and they can't do anything. WHAT ARE THEY DOING AT DHL? A bag worth over 600 SEK is gone and since they can't find the package they say it can't be sent back to the company that sent it, so I won't get my money back either. DHL gets the worst rating from me. What if it was even more expensive things I bought?

I sent a parcel with them 12/12-2025

I sent a parcel with them 12/12-2025. It contains 3000kr worth of material. The receiver could not pick it up. 2 weeks later I get info that it was picked up. I contact them they said no it was not picked up it will be returned I will get new info. 4 weeks later I contact them again they say they can not return it to me but to pick it up from warehouse they will tell me when. 2 weeks later I contact them again they say I have until this very day 18 o clock to come collect it immediately.

I ask for my rights of compensation, my right to just get my parcel returned like a normal situation, and not have to drive 45 minutes after work with my child from kindergarten to bring my package because I did the horrible mistake of sending with DHL for 130kr instead of PostNord for 250kr

Dear Glen,

Thank you for reaching out to us and I’m very sorry to hear about your experience. I fully understand your frustration when the shipment was redirected to a service point instead and especially to one located several kilometres away when there is one much closer to your address. This is of course not the experience we want to provide.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention – your feedback is very important to us. I would like to gather a bit more information from you. I will send you a separate message and hope you can provide the shipment number and your contact details.

Even HDL Express takes 4 days to send a shipment from Denmark to Istanbul. The service is expensive, the administrative procedures are complicated, and the delivery speed is low. You should consider a better shipping service.
