April 18, 2018 at 3:56 pmI would not touch the joke called Hermes, they lie about deliverying parcels and then say on their complaints form that the issue is solved. Funny that I thought it took two to resolve any issue. How can they solve anything if they don’t talk to me.
There is no proper escerlation of complaints and it seems that they are unregulated according to them!

July 05, 2018 at 12:32 pmHi there.
I had a text message this morning to say my parcel was going to be delivered between 8-12 this am. I checked my emails and it says it was delivered through my letter box at 9.33am which it wasn’t. I have tried to contact Hermes but unable to get through. If this could be sorted asap that would be brilliant.
Many thanks

September 27, 2018 at 12:25 pmHi Carole, please sort out your security and delivery issues with parcels getting lost, you have lost two parcels in the last 30 days….see HRM10442421, your customer service keep on fobbing me off with no live info, the recipient is very annoyed, no driver has been near his property, I am very dissatisfied and will not use or recommend your services

January 15, 2019 at 6:58 pmGood afternoon.
Working with Hermes Germany is a real nightmare.
I know the English language but not the German one, that’s why I must write to you and I’m going to send lots of Emails to some German departments of transports and so on, because HERMES Germany is a real nightmare…
I can assure you that I will send Emails even to the Bundestag…
My mother bought in November the 25, two Sony Hi-Fi speakers on an auction in eBay.
The tracking number is 01329192830752
They never where delivered and after sending a few Emails to HERMES Germany (kundenservice-paket@hermesworld.com), Mr. Rainer Windhorst told me that I can’t complaint, but just the sender (Mr. Heinz Kranenberg)…
The sender, Mr. Heinz Kranenberg phone them last week and they told him they will phone later to give the new tracking number.
As they didn’t phone, Mr. Heinz Kranenberg phone them again yesterday and the person who took is call (Mr. Glow) told him that he is so sorry but he didn’t have a new tracking number and don’t know what’s going on…
This become a nightmare because HERMES Germany has thousands of complaints because their service is terrible…
If you track the number I gave you, the package the first time returned to Germany, and now they don’t want to give an explanation or a new number or whatever…
This is a big package not a small one that is easier to lose…
I ”Google” a little and the complaints about HERMES Germany is absolutely incredible…
As the stupid Site of HERMES Germany is just in German, without a single Email address where to complaint, you must solve my problem.
As I told you before, I will send if necessary, hundreds and hundreds of Emails to all related departments in Germany, because company’s like HERMES Germany must close the door as they are joking with us, European Citizens…
Mrs Angela Merkel for sure wants German Company’s working well.
Hope you can ask yours colleagues from HERMES Germany, explanations and not always liars…
Best regards,
João Tavares

February 16, 2019 at 12:45 pmCouldn’t agree more with all the comments posted, an absolute shower, can’t talk to a human being, lies told consistently all in all a terrible service but above all they don’t deliver or collect on time or at all in some cases.
Wouldn’t recommend them to anyone.
