When purchasing items the last stop before receiving them was Chullora then onto my local depot
but now the parcel has ended up at East Wagga Wagga.
Has anyone else noticed this is happening to their parcels.
My parcel has now gone way past my town and now needs to come back and now the estimated date will
be surpassed.
When and why the **bleep** has Wagga Wagga come into the travelling path anyway?
Wake up AP you're starting to **bleep** me off

Snap!
Wagga Wagga East seems, somehow, to be a logical transit point (in the AP universe at least) between Sydney metro and Perth metro AND it only adds an extra 5 days to the transit time, meaning I get my goodies in around 12 days instead of a paltry 7 days.
Oh, the joy!

I don't think they know what they're doing half the time. I sent 2 parcels to the same buyer a few months ago on the same day (separate transactions). His nearest sorting centre was East Wagga Wagga. One went via Wagga and was delivered 2 days after postage. The other, posted at exactly the same time, went via Chullora and Sunshine and arrived 12 days later.
I'm a bit dirty with AP at the moment. I'd bought a few expensive items and the seller sent them SOD as I'd been away for a few days and if it arrived before I got back, it wouldn't be left at my door, it would go back to the PO so I could sign for it. You can imagine my surprise this morning when my AP app alerted me that my item had been delivered via safe drop. WTH???
For a start, I am supposed to have a no safe drop of anything order in place because it was deemed my front door was far from safe to leave anything. Yet, they decided to safe drop an SOD parcel. I checked my CCTV and saw it sitting at my front door. I sent a message to my friend who was feeding my animals to grab it when she got there and put it out the back somewhere. I didn't hear from her and checked the camera again about 15 minutes later and noticed the parcel gone. My heart sank. Another 10 minutes later and my friend sent a message saying my parcel is on the bench in the shed. Turns out she was almost at my place when she got the message, so grabbed it straight away. Blood pressure returned to normal. I'm still going to put a rocket up them tomorrow.

so why is AP losing money? DOH!
its so simple, its delivering mail not rocket surgury for goodness sakes.
what happened to the AP i grew up with, you remember the place where you went to post a letter or buy a stamp?
then they decided to be a bank and a trinket store and pay all your bills store and a baby minding business. oh thats comming.
what? you want a stamp??? whats a stamp? hmm, hang on while i find out what a stamp is.

The parcel has arrived back at Chullora again today from Wagga Wagga lol.
So it has done a 3 day trip to no where and now it's the weekend so another 2 days of waiting.
It was at Chullora on Tuesday and technically I should have received it on Wed.
The seller must be a bit nervous hoping that I don't hand them a defect but I'm not going to do that as I know what
they can end up doing to a seller lol.
I just hope that they packed it pretty bloody good and gets here in one piece

I was surprised by my parcel that arrived yesterday. Posted from Tweed Heads on Tuesday, went via Underwood black hole, then went to Chullora black hole and arrived at my place in Grenfell yesterday morning. Yet others wait 2 weeks to get something from one city location to another that's 30km away. Go figure.
