A delivery driver has been dismissed after being filmed throwing a parcel over a gate instead of delivering it properly. The incident occurred in Port Talbot, Essex, where the DPD driver was seen tossing the package and a delivery slip at Jorja Hunt's home.
Jorja Hunt, a 24-year-old make-up artist and technician, expressed her frustration, stating: 'My business stock is delivered by DPD and if that had been my stock, it would not have been acceptable.'
DPD responded to the incident, saying: 'At DPD we take customer service and the behaviour of our people very seriously indeed. Clearly, the behaviour here falls a long way short of what we expect from our drivers.'
The company apologised to Ms Hunt and confirmed that the driver no longer works for them.
