@RoyalMail Appalled by your service. Driver left an international delivery outside in the rain and the box was OPEN. It's a utensil, now ruined and unhygienic. Your system claims it was a "safe place"—it wasn't. Last time you left items in my BIN. Phone wait is 43 mins. DM me now

It's not perfect & I'll no doubt continue to tweak over the next few weeks, but if it supports you then I'm happy with that.
