Ugh. Just ugh. If I can avoid GLS, I generally do. In this case the seller made that choice. Tracking is buggy. With a recent delivery, they delivered package 2/2 to my home and the other to a not-so-... See more

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.

Incompetence at it finest

Incompetence at it finest! I explicitly told where to leave the package and they manage to mess everything up and ruin my plans. Just go for a competent service. Really, why do you have a feature that allow users to set a package drop location and you don't care about it. DHL and even Hermes do a MUCH better job. Don't wate your money here... pay a bit more for a decent service

Lazy couriers don't even ty to deliver, drop directly at the shop.

For the third time this week, the driver faked my absence, marked the package as 'recipient not found,' and just dumped it at a local store. They don't even try to make the delivery. To make matters worse, I have to wait in line for days before I'm even notified where it is. This laziness is seriously disrupting my business. Such a shame for the company—they need to hire better people.
