Evri apologises for courier ‘chaos’ in Cambridgeshire

Just down the street from Mr Bennett, Tess Jones is also angry with the courier.

“I had a message to say my parcel had been delivered to my neighbour, ‘HIM’. This made no sense, and I’d also been in all day,” said Mrs Jones.

“The driver had sent a picture of the parcel on a doorstep, and I had to turn to friends and social media to try to identify where it was. It took hours.”

When Mrs Jones arrived at the house, there were “five packages on the doorstep. None of them were for the owners of the house and two were for someone in a different village”, she said.

“The homeowners were in America with hundreds of pounds worth of goods lying by their door. I’ve had two parcels misdelivered now.”
