Ridiculous service.

I am absolutely disgusted with the service I am receiving from Ram. A third party delivery has been arranged so I can collect my father's phone on his behalf, as he is in another country. We've been doing it this way for years with Vodacom, no issues. Seeing as it's a third party delivery, and I have the arrangements and emails from vodacom, I always have a copy of my father's ID, my original ID and a proof of residence. Yesterday the driver came to deliver the phone, he said they didn't put my ID number on the parcel, but he phoned his manager while he was standing here and she confirmed that he can deliver. Then he said he is just waiting for a pin from them, he phoned again, no answer. He said he is going to do his other deliveries in the area, he'll come back in the afternoon, he never came back. This morning they are refusing to deliver the parcel because I don't have my father's original ID. This is why it's a third party delivery, I don't have it, he's in another country!! There a massive miscommunication between the management, drivers, and the utterly *********** staff in the WhatsApp channels (Rethabile in particular)

 Dear Rouxle ,
 
 
 We apologize for failing to meet our promised delivery times and commitments. We understand the importance of reliable and timely deliveries and communication should have been made to you regarding the reason as to why the parcel was delayed. 
 Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience and frustration this may have caused.


Unfortunately we need both original ID documents upon delivery for a 3rd party delivery


 We are taking the necessary steps to address the issues that led to these delays, including upgrading our infrastructure as well as enhancing our logistics processes to provide a seamless service.
 Once again we humbly apologize and appreciate your patience and understanding.
 
 Sincerely, 
 RAM Team.

Reviewer Update
Maybe there should be better communication between management, drivers, and office staff? Why am I hearing different stories from different people? It's not good enough, I'll request another courier. Your service and communication is shameful. As mentioned, the person is not in the country, so his parcels are always delivered to me, always with a copy of his ID, it's also not the first time doing this with Vodacom. If you were not able to fulfill the needs or stick to the arrangements made by vodacom, should you not have said from the beginning that you aren't willing to do the delivery? I'm shocked by your absolute lack of service and willingness to assist. My line of work forces me to receive hundreds of parcels a week and I will be sure to mention this to people going forward.
