@DHLParcelUK Hello, I attempted to send the direct message that you requested, but the message was refused. I have tried repeatedly. Could you please offer me an alternative way to contact your company, please?
@DHLParcelUK Hello, I was physically assaulted by one of your drivers this morning in Cambridge. I have tried to report this but have received no response. I would like to telephone your complaints department. Can you please give me the correct contact information? Thanks.
