A very good friend worked for evri, she worked so hard very early start sorting parcels before starting her round. All that effort and still with fuel and vehicle costs the reward didn’t match the effort put in, yet day in day out she kept on going.
Susie supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeMy Evri Courier is fabulous, sometimes coming to me 4 times a week, I’d hate to lose him. I hope the get a decent deal From this merger, he’s become more like a neighbour than a courier.
Cheryl supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeOur Evri delivery driver is a young Romanian woman who runs from the van with her deliveries. She is the hardest working and nicest courier we’ve ever had and she has been serving our community for several years now. She is universally liked and respected for her work ethic and diligence. Have a nice day Van 76!
James supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeIt’s well and truly about time the couriers that make Hermes/Evri look good was heard. The couriers that work 6 days a week deliver ex amount of parcels with a good service was heard. The couriers that put in a lot of time and effort and take pride in are job was appreciated and not bullied ripped off or just genuinely feeling like there being taken for an absolute fool. Super couriers delivering 200 plus parcels a day with a good service needs to be appreciated a lot more because remember they need us more then we need them especially with what we’re being paid. Super couriers don’t come daily thew and far between. Not anyone can do wat I do
Jermaine supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeI worked for EVRI for 19 months, running a very rural round and made very little on it once you factored in your own fuel, the odd snack. insurance and vehicle running costs. You also have to pay tax on earnings. The people were (generally) fantastic though you got the odd mouthy customer; the real problem was the management who insisted on hitting ETA's (estimated time of arrival) regardless of traffic or other problems, they tried to foist HUGE parcels on you to be delivered for 68p average when they should really have been delivered by lorry. To offset this they invented a 'large and light' category. Small parcels are as much of a pain to deliver as large ones, but EVRI invented a 'tiny' rate of 28p which frankly isn't worth it, it cost me more to fire up and drive there. Management came up with all sorts of tricks and penalties and were nasty in the way they enforced it all. There are several rates for parcels and if you shut loud enough, or two a manager they'll eventually move you up, but beware they have a habit of doing this for a month or so then reverting back to the old Rates. Check your statement (they call it an invoice). They say you are on your own, self employed (when it suits them) other times you work for them and them alone (when it suits them). Try asking for a holiday, wear Kevlar armour and ear protectors. Its all about profit. They have a huge turnover off staff and in a way that's to your advantage - they won't sack you because they usually can't get anybody else, despite promises of £15-18 an hour. Absolutely no chance of this even if you deliver 140 a day 6 days a week 8 - 8 pm.
Jack supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeEvri used to be “Hermes”. The change of name doesn’t appear to have changed the terrible service, having had personal experience. The delivery drivers seem to have a thankless task; there was a video a few years ago of a driver dumping parcels in a wood, obviously no time to deliver them. This company should be dissolved, slave labour, nothing less.
Mev supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeThere has long been a Fair Trade movement aimed at stopping exploitation of producers in the developing world - perhaps it is time for countries like the UK to address profiteering at the expense of British workers, by establishing a Fair Trade movement here. If selling platforms like eBay offered the option of a Fair Trade courier, I believe that there are buyers who would be willing to spend a bit more on delivery, if they knew the difference that it could make to conscientious hard-working couriers.
Verity supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeIt's all the same now. Companies like Evri, Uber and others can just end jobs of hard working people who depend on the regular income without a care or a consequence. Totally unfair and something has to be done
Amit supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeThe same must have happened in my area, as our local delivery girls, who were fantastic, have suddenly been replaced, and the quality of service has dropped considerably. I now know why and it saddens me.
Graham supported: Stop Evri from Unfairly Cutting Couriers' Rates and removing work without noticeDecent people, doing a good job, deserve a fair wage & fair treatment by employers. When Evri fail to retain decent workers they risk replacing those workers with thieves that "make-up their wage" by theft or who are the sort of low life that takes any opportunity to prey on vulnerable people - old or sick people, vulnerable women, who rely on delivery services - by intimidating or harassing them. If someone is coming to my home then I want to know that I am safe as well as know that my delivery will come; this will not be the case if decent employees are not respected by Evri. All companies deserve a reasonable profit, but they must provide a service for that, and they need to keep good workers to do so. I am more than wiling to boycott Evri. (See Elon Musk's & Tesla, customers have power..)
