Didn’t deliver the item stating address not accessible… That’s a lie as my home is right next to a main road. They said they have sent me a letter via Royal Mail to remind and within 2 days of sending the letter they returned the parcel to sender. No way to contact them except emails and the response I get is “Speak to the sender” Appalling service

Send txt parcel arrive 31/01/2024 next txt driver can`t enter property so call office. Next excuse road closed, then new excuse the gate is to small for the van. I live in a street in a village but there is no gate at the end of the street. Next day the driver shows up and explain that self employed drivers are paid a very low price so they don`t come for 1 parcel to a village and make up lie to the office. Thanks for the explaining.

Got a message today 8.40am saying they had left a card as unable to deliver. They had actually tried to deliver my parcel to a neighbour 2 doors away although my house has an address plaque and door bell. I was unable to contact DX so rang the firm supplying my goods. Got an email saying they had arranged for DX to deliver later today. After waiting in all day and putting a note on the door stating we were in and to ring the door bell still no delivery. They have just combined the new tracking number to my original one for me to change the delivery date. What a shambles! I'm going to cancel the order as I don't intend to give this firm any more time. I won't order anything again if DX are involved.

Received tracking updates, Ok. But then a message: Delivered to customer SAFE. No one rang my bell. There was no parcel. I was sent a photograph of another door and a second photograph of basement into which my parcel had been thrown. It was in my street, but not my address.

Appalling company. Do to use. They do not deserve to be in business. Phone lines just on auto, its not possible to speak with anyone. Live chat never work. They emailed that they tried to deliver & left a card - not true. I waited in all day on purpose. No support or help and no contact available - I guess on purpose as they have so many appalling reviews. Why does the Government contract them? Their disgusting lack of support means you cannot trust them with your paperwork.

Ordered a bike from House of Fraser and unfortunately DX was the courier. DX moved it between Northampton and Nottingham making no attempt to deliver it to my address. I raised this with their customer service people on many occasions, this went on for over one month without delivery being attempted. You then returned it to House if Fraser who cancelled my order and my 12 year old son is now left without a bike.

Very poor service Should change their name as slow service than express service. Waited 5 days then finally decided to return the item to seller

Never turned up, kept a eye on delivery map was only 2 mins away then driver just disappeared. No communication a wast of 3 hours!!!

You need to re-name your so-called express service and also get your website updated. I have been waiting for a delivery for two days. Monday, I got a text message on my phone "will deliver your item today between 14:30 – 16:33” – despite the Dx lorry being seen in my road yesterday, I did not receive the item. Then another message at 09:17 this morning “Willian will deliver your item today between 11:56 – 13:56”. Well, the van appeared outside our house today, van doors were heard being opened and shut several times, but Willian did not come to the door and no delivery was made. Went on your website for a contact number for “Customer Services”, which it says is open 8am to 6pm. Called the number – voice message saying “This number is now exclusively for rebooking. Please email or use our website live chat.” Went to the live chat, which needs to be renamed “Dead Chat” as having entered all my contact details a message popped up “We are sorry but there are no advisors currently available. You may like to know you can track or rebook your delivery". What an absolute shambles.

I would give 0 stars if I could! They were meant to collect a parcel from my house to return to B&Q. I asked them to collect on Monday, I got a text at 6.48am saying they were unable to collect. I then got a text at 7am saying they will collect between 7-9am. No one came to the house or knocked on the door. Our ring door bell showed a delivery van drive passed but didn’t stop or ring. I informed the seller and asked them to make sure they knocked on our door or ring the door bell - the seller said they can’t guarantee they do this?!!? What?! Well how am I meant to know they have arrived to collect? Next collection day the exact same thing happens. I get a text at 6.50am saying they were unable to collect. I then get a text straight afterwards saying they will try to deliver between 7-9am. No one comes all day, checked the camera on our door and no delivery van even drives by our house, let alone tried to collect the parcel from our house. I tried to ring DX Express - after being on hold I got hung up on automatically. It said try the online chat, so I did but it said no one was online to chat. ?! I emailed the seller who sent me “photographic evidence” that the driver tried to collect. The photo was off multiple houses down my street with mine right at the back of the photo in the distance, they didn’t even take a photo of my house, just the whole street?! There is no video evidence on my front door camera that they even went up to the house!! Ridiculous service - well no service at all!

Was forced to use DX to return my dons visa from London Embassy to Inverness Had text from them in the Thur saying wld arrive the Friday . Nothing Arriced. My sons flight was the following Tues. Tried phoning but had to wait over hour in queue and then was told it was at their Edinburgh depot. I pleaded to go pick up myself to be sure I would get it on time but they would not give me a direct number for the Edinburgh depot. They then left it sitting there all Sat & Sunday and posted it, wait for it, back down 344 miles to Northampton!! I was appalled!! I was told this was their ‘ process’ as any further north requires being handed to Royal Mail. They finally handed it to Royal Mail 5.30 Mon eve Royal Mail had it to my Inverness door by 8 am next morning but my dons flight was 6 am . Customer services appalling. Take NO RESPONSIBILITY and offer no apology. DO NOT USE and if you have to have a Viss returned through them arrange to just pick it up from London. DX are an Appalling stay functional and incompetent service

My last week's parcel was 5 days arriving. Today's delivery has not arrived either. By 16:30 the tracking site closes down, so you know they've gone home. They don't deliver weekends. So unreliable. No apology, No explanation.

I always avoid sellers stating they use dx as a courier. You can almost guarantee you won't get your package on time!! I wouldn't recommend this service to my mother in law!!

My sister had a delivery from DX on the 21/10/22 and after delivering the goods, the driver reversed into my vehicle and drove off! After contacting the company and promised that someone would return my call and deal with this. After a few days someone called me back and advised that the drivers are self employed and it has nothing to do with DX themselves and they'll be speaking with the driver after they return from annual leave. I left it for a week or so and still no reply from them, when I made my next contact they were not interested or forthcoming with the driver's details so I could inform my insurance company of the incident. After emailing again telling them it is an offence not to supply the driver details again! Silence once again is sounding very loud, they just don't care what damage their driver's cause to other peoples property in line with carrying out DX's main concern of business in delivering items to customers property/businesses, as they have no regard for its customers

Am expecting some replacement contact lens'. Initial text message confirmed DX plan to deliver between 8am-6pm no signature required. Subsequent text messages merely state unable to deliver?......no door knocking/no card through door, no package left on door step which to be honest, would be logical as no signature required. DX customer service lines point you to their DX live chat then cut you off......the chat is continually dead with "we're sorry but there are no advisors currently available" Summary, round the houses, no evidence of any attempted delivery or means to discuss - unbelievable in this day & age

My delivery apparently came when I was at work and it's gone, DX will not provide me simple proof of delivery or let me know where it was left simply because they are concerned money could be claimed back when all I wanted was an investigation since I've lost my money and my parcel. The customer service disconnected from me and were uncooperative! I've contacted complaints to no avail and I'm fuming! I'm passing this onto the ombudsman because this delivery service is the worst and most useless in the UK I've come across, I'd go so far as saying I'd rather cancel any future deliveries than deal with them again.

Arranged a collection and waited in all day but they didn’t turn up. Rang them and was told driver ran out of time and would collect next day. Would not prioritise collection and wouldn’t even guarantee they would collect next day. I have to cancel an appointment and another day stuck at home in case the decide to turn up. This company is a joke. Do not use

Your company by far is one of the worst couriers there is !!! A £700 parcel that should if been next day delivery is now well over a week over , it should off been delivered today and typical it wasn't even attempted, you can not even get hold off my own couriers ' what a JOKE ' to find where my parcel is . Your customer service is absolutely SHOCKING !!!.. for anyone that is even thinking ordering anything that will be delivered by this company DONT , I can not stress this enough , you will be wasting your time and money ... they even had the cheek to ask me to collect from there depot myself . You as a company and the people you employ in your customer service department and the MANAGER I spoke to today are SHAMEFULL. you shouldn't be aloud to OPERATE as a company , I will go as far as I have to make sure I spread the word far and wide of how ABSOLUTELY USELESS you are . STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY.x

DX simply is dysfunctional. The phone numbers are a maze of electronic prerecorded messages.Live Chat is dead.Deliveries simply do not happen.They claim they cannot find an address that is readily on google maps.They claim they called but no one was home at an address with 24 hour reception.They claim they left a card when they never visited the site. Never buy anything from any seller who ships by DX.
