ossieram Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Just had a courier come to my door with a parcel addressed to my wife. I went to take the parcel but he asked for ID, so i showed him my driving licence with my picture and he starts to copy my licence number down, so I took the card away and asked what he was doing. He said he needed the number for proof. I told him he was at the address on the parcel and he had looked at my picture on the licence and that was all the proof he needed and that I would sign for the item. He then said he would not hand over the parcel without the number. Needles to say I shut the door and he left with the parcel. This is the first time I have been asked for ID at my own house and I've never been asked for my driving licence number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicME85 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Who was the delivery company? Have never known that to happen except maybe at the Post Office depending on how strict the person behind the counter is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I have parcels all the time from DPD with Asos, never once been asked for ID. Have you looked at the tracking to see what they have put as reason for not delivering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The missus ordered it and the tracking number will be on her table so will have to wait until she finishes work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorksopRam Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Is it an age restricted product? And do you look young? They make a note of IDs in shops and that sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal is a Ram Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Never been known to take an ID number before - been ID'd in the case of high value electricals and booze, but never had them note down details.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ossieram Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 Just had a reply of the company and apparently it is something EE insist on. Asked my wife to check her emails and you'll all be surprised to know that on the email it says "you will need to show ID and the driver will take the last 5 numbers" Imagine my shock when she told me she hadn't bothered to read it all It's not for me anyway but she has rearranged the delivery.
