“Was really happy with the tracking service and watched the van getting near. Then checked again to see a note with a picture of our gate and saying delivery was attempted but no one was available. 4 people were in the house! Another parcel company delivered a parcel at about the same time! I tried to call the company to be told they were open until 6 on a recorded loop that went on for hours! But no operator available to take my call! My plans to paint the bathroom this weekend scuppered by lazy delivery driver! I will not order goods from a company that uses APC as their courier service in the future!”

“Two text messages giving expected time of delivery, shortly after the latest time had elapsed tracking stopped. Phoned local APC, deliveries had stopped for the day. I had left instructions for goods to be left on the FRONT door step which the person in customer relations read out to me. Next day, more texts to give expected time for delivery. This time delivery was made, but large, heavy packages were left at the side, gable end, of the house. I am quite some way past retiring age and have had to manoeuvre and move into the house two 30 kilo boxes out of the rain. A comparatively easy task had they been left, as requested, by the front door. To add insult the driver had put underneath the delivery photo, ‘As requested’. We have regular deliveries with drivers always happy to put parcels in the designated place.The ladies on customer services were very patient and helpful.”

“Appalling service & extremely rude customer service They don’t leave ‘tried to delivery’ cards…only knew they’d tried to deliver when found email in my junk inbox Checked security cameras & delivery guy hadn’t even rung doorbell Tried to get redelivered & unfortunately I missed answering door in time so when phoned to arrange redelivery again I got an incredibly rude ‘customer service’ woman with terrible attitude on phone who kept speaking over me whilst I tried to explain situation & she abruptly told me that they will not leave parcel in safe place unless the sender requests (irrelevant of whether it’s more convenient for the receiver!!! & they return parcel to sender after 3 attempts!!) Unfortunately I had no option but to have this courier company delivery my parcel as they were chosen by the sender …personally I’d never use them as their service is terrible and zero ‘customer service’ Hopefully my parcel gets delivered successfully on 3rd attempt!!”

“Bought from Amazon Delivered by these clowns, The Item was delayed, so I called APC clowns only to be told that they have not received the package from the seller, called the seller to cancel the item, seller showed me the receipt that the courier had collected the package the previous day, also showed me that APC clowns had misrouted the package to a different depot, in other words, APC clowns tell porkie pies, blatant liars, avoid this courier and book with a more reliable, honest service.”

“My parcel was meant to be delivered this morning so I tracked it and saw that my house was the next stop of the delivery driver's list. Because it was due to arrive, I waited by the window but the delivery van never arrived. Next thing, I received an email saying they attempted to deliver my parcel but no one was in, which is a complete lie as they never even drove up my street. Not happy at all.”

“Got an email saying my delivery would be in the morning on Friday. Waited in all day and no delivery and no communication. Pretty bad so far.... Next day another email saying the parcel was out for delivery and would be with me in the morning. Same thing....No delivery. Waited in the rest of the day. No delivery. No communication. I emailed to ask what was happening. No reply. The worst courier company I have ever dealt with. Disgustingly awful service. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You ruin the reputation and service of those companies you are supposedly offering an overnight service for. It is now Sunday afternoon. Two days after I should have recived my parcel. Do I wait in all Monday on the off chance that you lot get your fingers out? I think you should change your company namefrom 'APC overnight' to 'APC Possibly Sometime in the future'.”

“Terrible experience - daughter's birthday present so paid extra. The van driver didn't wait for an answer, rang on the gate but didn't come up to the door and then drove off even though we were walking towards him - he just carried on reversing off the drive and drove off although he must have seen us! Such as shame for the company using APC as I won't buy from them again even though it was not the company's fault!”

“Worst service ever! I called at 9 am to make sure they would deliver my parcel. They told me, we made a mistake and the parcel is not in the track. They did not give me any solution at all, neither an email confirming another date. I called to have an update and they told me the driver is sick so unfortunately i will not receive until further notice. I requested a day off of work to wait for my parcel. The worst Costumer service.”

“Having paid for the business overnight next day delivery for an extremely important item I received an email saying it was delayed. Having called to ask why/where it is I was told that it’s still at the depot as “we have hundreds of parcels so they can’t do it all”. I asked for the Head office number, he put me on hold, came back with the 0800 number which was automated and then the same man picked up the phone!? This is crucial for tonight or tomorrow at the latestand has RUINED A VERY SPECIAL DAY but he said my only chance was to get the company Id purchased from to upgrade it to a Saturday delivery. WHY can’t they upgrade, chase the order or actually give out the real head office details to enable a complaint? Disgusting service so this is my first and last time this company gets my custom ( and money)”

“Absolutely useless company They want me to take a day of work to wait for a parcel thats worth £13, alternatively they say I can drive for 45 mins using approximately £5 in fuel and loosing £25 in wages to collect a £13 parcel. I proved I was the buyer of the parcel and gave them permission to leave it on my door step but they say they are too incompetent to do such a simple action and I have to waste my valuable time doing there job for them. This company is a joke and I would be embarrassed to work for them!”

“I would give zero stars if the system would let me. 1st delivery attempt failed because driver wouldn't ring door bell - he even took picture of door and wrote "intercom, no access" (I was in, intercom works, he didn't use it). 2nd delivery attempt failed because driver wanted me to come out to the street to find him (he was right outside), then said we had to go back to the door so he could take a photo and then refused to hand over the parcel when I complained about the poor service. Driver was abusive and threatening, almost prompting me to call the police. Complaint to their customer service fell on deaf ears (as you'd expect). Annoyingly shop, when I called them, even stated they always had problems with that particular APC depot so clearly this is not an isolated incident. At the time of writing I see only 9% of reviewers would recommend APC - can't say I'm surprised. In future I plan to shop elsewhere if APC are the only choice. Worst experience of any courier company I've ever had. Avoid at all costs if you can.”

“Where’s my package? I live on the Kirkcaldy high street. The building door is unlocked all day so that deliveries and post can be made to the tenants. The delivery driver, twice now, has declared that they could not make the delivery. What has gone from a simple next-day delivery has turned into a week-long hunt. I watch on the online tracker, as they slowly drive past my building, before the page clears and I receive an email saying that the delivery couldn’t be made. When I phoned about this, I was told that the delivery driver took a picture right outside the building door as “proof that they couldn’t make the delivery”, what the f**k? I am so sorry to anyone else that has googled “APC reviews” after facing similar issues, and reached this page, because yes, they really are this frequently terrible. Let’s hope that one day this company finally learn how to open doors, I guess?”

“APC were scheduled to pick up 4 dining chairs to return to the seller. The seller booked them as they had delivered the chairs in the first place with no problems. I had supplied detailed instructions of how to reach our address as not the easiest place to find and using the postcode in a satnav would have resulted in them being taken to the wrong address. Driver phoned to say he was lost - had used the postcode! Refused to answer any return calls so we could direct them. Never arrived and when asked for an explanation said there were no items to be collected! Untrue! Never even turned up. Rescheduled for today and in the morning I checked with the local office that the driver had the correct in structions for getting here. Stayed in all day at 16.30hrs - 30mins before cut off time - phoned to ask where the driver was and was told they did not have a driver available to pick up the chairs and the job had been rescheduled for Monday. That will mean I have had to wait in for 3 days for this totally incompetent company that has no idea of communication to collect these items. I would never use this company myself and would advisde anyone with any =sense to stay clear of them”
