    Were it so easy, Amazon said it was delivered so does UPS.

    Ask for a copy of the signature.

    It says and I quote,

    " We delivered a parcel which we were authorised to deliver without capturing a signature by leaving it in a safe delivery location"

    So its still in the boot of his car ?

    UPDATE: Fastway cant get in contact with the driver.

    Ask Amazon for proof of delivery. They didn't ask for any therefore can't prove it was delivered its Amazons problem not yours.

    A hopeless crowd. They have lost a delivery for me and marked it as delivered and signed for. They refuse to provide any proof of delivery. The seller is fuming and saying that I have received the item.

    Why are this useless company being used as the delivery agent? Like above, I have never had any problem with any other courier, yet this is the second delivery problem I've had with these wasters.

    Never had problems with Fastway, I wish they sent a text before delivery though.

    Today I got a parcel from Amazon with them, I ordered it on 31th Jan. On the website it still shows "On the way" ..

    As they are all franchises, some will be better than others. The south east franchise is the one I have had ongoing problems with.

    Its the North East I have trouble with, i believe that it might legitimately just be the driver.I think it might be his sister doing it when hes not around either way, its just terrible.

    Yes, I think the individual driver is the problem, but the office are showing no will to resolve the problem and are refusing to give me contact information for the franchise holder, Mr Willie Day.

    Update:

    I got an email back saying that the driver left the package at the door and that it could be with a neighbour, I don't how to respond to that.

    This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with a courier.

    I have a CCTV video of a fastway driver dumping my package in my bin. There was no delivery slip or any notification to say it was there.

    The only way we found it was that the bin was going out the following Monday !!

    Contact Amazon.

    Package if left there is open to theft so how could you be responsible.

    I have found Fastway as the worst delivery company to deal with.

    Used to use fastway for b2b and they were fine. Fall apart entirely when handling recipients who aren't there during business hours though

    If they can't provide proper delivery options to consumers they really shouldn't offer it as a service
