MDS Collivery
Based on recent customer reviews, MDS Collivery delivers a sharply divided courier experience. Long-standing business clients praise named staff such as Lize, Vishal, Yvonne and driver Thabani Gumede for going the extra mile on urgent interprovincial and outlying-area consignments, and commend the real-time tracking platform. Other customers report parcels arriving days late, failed delivery attempts, and confusion over which days outlying suburbs are serviced. Recurring complaints centre on unanswered WhatsApp and helpline queries, contradictory information between consultants, copy-paste responses to escalations, and rude conduct from a few drivers at the gate.

Worst "Service" Had a parcel that was supposed to be delivered Friday the 28th.All updates said that date,Thursday the 27th update was "Driver assigned to deliver your parcel" Called the 28th to ask what time delivery would be as I finish work at 1pm. Was told"We only deliver to those places on Tuesdays and Thursdays so it will be delivered next Tuesday" No calls or any correspondence and if I had not called then would not of known. The attitude, we really don't care, we have your money and we will do whatever we want. Doesn't matter if this parcel is important you will wait.

I received a delivery on 15 July 2026 under waybill number ***. The driver’s behaviour was unacceptable from the start.He barely stopped at my gate for about 30 seconds. When I came outside he had a bad attitude and rudely asked why I took so long, saying he almost left. During the signing process he became obnoxious because I didn’t sign exactly where he wanted. He said something like “don’t you see the line?” in a rude tone. When I explained that I had a traumatic and horrible day yesterday and wasn’t in the best frame of mind, he dismissed me by saying he was “just making jokes.” There was zero professionalism or empathy.I immediately reported this on WhatsApp and provided the waybill number. Their responses were completely useless — standard copy-and-paste replies with no real help, even after I escalated the matter.This kind of disrespectful and impatient behaviour, especially towards a customer who clearly stated they were struggling, is not acceptable.I am giving MDS Collivery 1 star. I expect a proper investigation, confirmation of action taken against the driver, and a formal written apology.

After five years of entrusting MDS Collivery with all courier and logistical requirements across a Family Group of Companies spanning legal, property, hospitality, tourism, and the wine industry, both locally and internationally, I can say without hesitation that they are in a class of their own. What sets MDS Collivery apart is not simply that they deliver. It is HOW they deliver. Their technological capabilities are genuinely impressive. From the moment a collection is booked, I am kept informed at every stage with real-time updates, proactive communication, and a platform that works exactly as promised. In an industry where technology is often an afterthought, MDS Collivery has clearly invested in getting it right, and it shows in every interaction. But what truly distinguishes this company is their extraordinary willingness to go the extra mile. And I mean this literally. Whether it is an urgent, last-minute request, a logistical challenge that seems insurmountable, a special collection or delivery arrangement, or even something as specific as sourcing and delivering a particular item to me while I am out of town, they have never once said or that it is impossible. They have even assisted with packaging when needed and special deliveries. No matter how unusual or time-sensitive the request, MDS Collivery finds a way. For a Group of Companies like ours, that operates across multiple sectors and demands a courier partner who is flexible, dependable, and creative in their problem-solving, MDS Collivery is the perfect fit! Their professionalism is consistent, their team is approachable and solution-oriented, and their fees remain competitive and fair relative to the exceptional level of service provided. Five years in, my confidence in MDS Collivery has only grown. They are not just a service provider, but a trusted partner. I recommend them unreservedly to any business or individual who values reliability, innovation, and a team that genuinely cares about getting it right: every single time. Sonet

Collivery is ****ming customers,a one day delivery was charged and I got told it would be there in 4 to 5 days. Reason Collivery uses a 3rd party that don’t deliver the one day promise. So there I loose a job because Collivery ****med me
