BoGlE Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 So after afew days of owning my supra I ordered a Steering boss from eBay so I could fit my lovely Sparco wheel I've been saving since breaking my Glanza around a year ago. Nothing Could go wrong...Right? So I order it Sunday night to get it posted out Monday with an estimated delivery of Wednesday (Posted Royal mail 2nd class Signed for). Sweet! Wednesday comes and I get in from work and immediately check the post box in anticipation ill have a missed delivery or something. Its my first mod! I'm a little excited haha. Sure enough there it is.. The little red card with writing telling me its in the Green bin (Food recycling). Straight away I know the postman's had to forge my signature because its a signed for parcel. I then check the bin to find that the bins empty.. So I go around checking places thinking he might of put it somewhere else. Nope!! Its recycling day and the bin men have emptied it... I wasn't happy! I rang the waste collection depot and they pretty much told me I had no chance of finding it now. Sent a shi**y email off to Royal mail earlier so hopefully they can resolve this and reimburse me or something. Has anyone else ever had anything similar happen to them?

Glanza_Mike Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Wow, thats pretty bad, royal mail should almost certainly reimburse you. Pretty poor on the postmans part. Where abouts in West Mids are u from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 The amount of 'missed you' cards I've had through the door when I'm in... unreal. They don't even make the effort to ring the doorbell. Must be fun being a postman if that's their attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoGlE Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Postmen don't tend to last long round by me either.. Although I think the current one will be out the door after this ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My postman used to "helpfully" sign recorded parcels on my behalf. I honestly think he believed he was doing me a favour as he used to sign with is own name. I dobbed him in to the local post office and he doesn't do it anymore. Can you as for a copy of the signature on the parcel and compare it to yours? That would help prove you never received it.

If the post office argued the fact ide happily demand to see the signature but tbh I don't think they have a leg to stand on in this situation lol.
