It’s a postcode lottery in every sense of the word. I had years of good to great Evri service but now it’s just dreadful. Been like this maybe 18 months now. I always knew the courier - on first name terms and I’d reward them in a small way at Christmas (no Dyson hairdryers, I’m afraid!). Not any more. Can’t remember the last time I saw him. He never knocks and if he does, it’s two barely audible taps and scarper. Despite numerous requests to leave things under or over the locked side gate literally one metre from the door, everything is left on the doorstep so I can’t go out and am constantly going to the door to check on the off-chance when anything’s due 
I don’t like leaving bad reviews but I did give one star with the reasons in December. He rewarded me by taking the next delivery to a completely different road. I have left two more one star reviews with explanatory comments but nothing changes. They send I don’t know how many reminders to “review your courier” following a delivery but what’s the point if they don’t heed what you say? Do they even read them? Likewise QVC, by the way, with their constant bloody requests to leave a Trustpilot review, which I immediately delete.
I’m almost at the stage where I just don’t buy from any company that uses Evri but so many do.
