I think OP is upset that it says he has to be there when it arrives. Makes me wonder if it’s related to what they ordered, or if there’s been a lot of deliveries stolen from the neighborhood recently.
It’s standard practice unless you pay for a “service” that lets them put it by the curb or your garage or designated package box.
Since I live in an apartment on the third floor, I usually have packages delivered to a nearby package point, but there was a special on cat litter and the package is too big to fit so I have to be home.
Which wouldn’t have been a problem if it had shipped yesterday like it was supposed to, thus arriving today where I’m home all day anyway, but I have to leave tomorrow afternoon and won’t be back again within the time window so HOORAY! 😮💨

Here it’s cheaper to get it delivered to a pick-up place near my home. I’ll just pick it up on the way home from work, almost as easy as getting stuff from my own mailbox.
“Your delivery will arrive on a day between a point in time and a different point in time. You better be there when the driver pretends to check if someone’s at home and leaves without ringing anyway - not like you have anything better to do you lazy fuck.”
Next thing, I take the day off to wait for the package (or work from home) and I get a message in the afternoon saying “you weren’t home, your package is delivered at such and such drop off point”… always
Amazon is always telling me my packages will arrive between 8 and 10pm but if it ever actually gets that late, it gets moved to the next day. Do they ever actually deliver that late?
I’m guessing it depends on location activity. Around Boston, MA (U.S.). Amazon delivers 24hrs a day. I’ve had drops during 2 hour blocks after Midnight.
100% of my amazon deliveries for the past two years have been at least a day later than promised.
They used to have excellent shipping. Now they just lie about every delivery time.
I noticed that too. Sometimes the orders are time sensitive (like when I have to fly out of country and need to take the item with me). So I prefer honesty, most of time I will still order anyways because it doesnt matter, when it matters, at least I dont have to return it.
but thats not how amazon is operating.
So I just buy from temu now
That’s just the standard here, and it’s infuriating
Next time change the delivery to a postnord delivery box. Most of then are pretty close to housing, and you can pick it up any time you want
