Awful

Awful. Claimed I put the wrong address. I did not. I then had to give them (the same) address again and they delivered 5 days later.
They did not ring my doorbell or call me to tell me they were outside.
Instead they forged my signature on the delivery note and smashed my item by throwing it onto the concrete because they were too lazy to call me.
They are liars and are not to be trusted.

One star is too much

GLS is the ONLY company that is NEVER able to find my address. No other delivery company has ever had this problem.
I don't believe they actually try to deliver, I believe they falsely update delivery attempts to save money and force people to come to their office.
Additionally, it's very difficult to reach anyone in customer service.
I've recently settled in Italy, the GLS website has an english option but the chat doesn't recognize english so it's impossible to get past the bot and speak to a human.
I'll be informing the company I've been servicing that as long as they are using GLS I am no longer able to service them. Yes, GLS is that bad.

Gls are never correct.

They always say that tried to deliver but nobody was home. It's a lie, they never come to my house, i went home, and looking outside. Never ring never call, never email. Thay can't do it, because people work, and have to ask for permit sometimes.

my package did not move (lost one week)

UPDATE : a second similar experience just occurred this week (from Friday to early today (Thursday), the package did not move from GLS Italy , RESULT : one more customer lost due to GLS !!!!
--- Previously ----- For a whole week my package did not move, then finally on Saturday it seems that this package was found and finally shipped to Belgium where it arrived the following Tuesday! This package contained personalized items, which were to arrive on the Friday of the famous week in which this package was lost. GLS claims that there have been social movements in Italy, but in the many exchanges with GLS during this week I had never received this information! I doubt the truth for this reason ! In addition, gls does not make any commercial gesture and I lose the value of personalized items, which have become useless, and the shipping costs! I will never recommend gls again, even though I was satisfied before...

Hi André, we're sorry to hear about what happened to you. This certainly isn't how we normally provide our service. We'd hate for a single negative experience to make you think this is our standard. Have a good day, GLS Team.

I’m really disappointed with GLS

I’m really disappointed with GLS. My shipment has been stuck in Hungary for 3 days with no updates or movement. There’s no clear explanation for the delay, and tracking just keeps saying the same thing. I expected faster and more transparent service from a courier like GLS. Not impressed.

shipment number: 50917169616

Lyingly update the tracking status and do not deliver at all

They just don’t deliver the items and lyingly update the tracking status: “The parcel could not be delivered as the consignee was absent.”
I know because I was at home and it happened several times with me and also other people. Unfortunately when I receive a package, I don’t have an option to choose, otherwise I would never choose GLS. I would even pay 5-10 euro extra just not to be delivered by GLS.

Great customer care service

Great customer care service, the chat option is easy to be used and with quick response.
Via chat is it possible to reschedule the delivery on the day you prefer.

Worst logistics company ever

Worst logistics company ever. Do not consider using their service if possible. Two products were shipped to me by this company and they messed up two times (confusing my adress TWICE). I had to wait for a month for the first time. Just terrible!

Extremely Disappointed – Parcel Still Not Returned After 1.5 Months Tracking: 93838364066

I am the recipient of a parcel sent from Italy to Germany via GLS. It has now been over 1.5 months, and not only was the package never delivered, but it also has not been returned to the sender.

The parcel tracking number: 93838364066 contains items of deep personal value, and despite repeated follow-ups, GLS has failed to provide any proper update, explanation, or solution.

This level of service is completely unacceptable. How can a logistics company hold a package for over a month with no delivery, no return, and no communication?

My mother — the sender — is still waiting for her package to be returned in Italy. We are both incredibly frustrated and disappointed.

I would strongly advise against using GLS for international shipping. This experience has been nothing short of a nightmare.

These couriers are the most lazy and useless. They are always leaving the parcels in a shop or an offices so that they could just deliver all the parcels in 1 place.
They are giving me a hard time trying to find my parcels; I would have no idea that the item has arrived and in which shop. Another thing is that I have no privacy, the shop that accepts my delivery would have on display my orders.

I would give no stars at all but that's not an option. Worst courier service ever. Pathetic liars. It's been over 2vweeks I've been trying to get my order but they never come but they say they attempted delivery. Today is my last chance for them to deliver. I'm home all day till I receive it. Let's see if they'll lie again
