          i had £200 worth of rc car parts lost by a postie. they went to my mums address who was on holiday at the time. i arrived at my mums and saw the bins had been emptied so put them back behind the house and went in to discover a red postal card on the florr saying items left in blue bin behind house!!!!
          My mums nexr door neighbour had put them out for my mum while she was on holiday.. they admitted responsibility up to about £37 Barstewards.....
          on monday i was wondering where a package was.... i checked online tracking as the seller gave me it only to discover it had been attempted delivery and was waiting at sorting office. i printed it out and took it along and sure enough it was there. no card was ever left though...

                      Er, the postman left your stuff in a bin and then when it got thrown away by the refuse collectors the post office didn't take responsibility? I think you have a very strong case for taking legal action against the post office imo. The whole idea is that they are supposed to deliver items, not leave them in waste bins!


                      There must be someone on the forum who has worked in the post office who must know the score regards this?

                            I blew my stack at a delivery company recently as they were delivering a MacBook pro, they decided it was acceptable to leave in my back garden by the back door & post a card through the letterbox....this was at 10:30 in the morning & I arrived home @ 17:00

                            To say I was angry was an understatement

                              Parcelforce dropped off my first "proper" sized heli today. Very excited.... Only had time to peer into the bubble wrap, but the working day can't end quick enough...

                                You set the level of compensation you can receive when you pick the delivery service.

                                If you elect to use 1st class mail for example then the maximum compensation you can get is currently £46 and only then if you can show the item was worth at least that much.

                                If you mail £300 worth of goods then you need to be using Special Delivery which from memory covers you up to about £500.

                                The other point to consider is if the goods were ordered from a UK retailer using a distance method then the retailer remains responsible for the goods until safely received by you, so the loss is theirs not yours (despite what some would try and claim on their websites).
