Any number you call is automated. It’s impossible to get a human. Online AI support is garbage. What a ridiculously incompetent company. Bumbling clowns.

Horrible service. They said they tried to deliver 3 times but ai've been home the whole time. I asked them what day and times he couldn't't confirm which tells me they never came. I checked my camera as they record and nothing.

Premium Price, Zero Accountability
I paid $400 for DHL “express” shipping expecting secure, professional service. What I got was the opposite.
Timeline of chaos:
Expected delivery: Sept 15
Actual delivery (no notice): Sept 9, 5:30 pm
Email confirmation received: Sept 10, 12 pm — a full day after the package was already abandoned.
No communication: No call, no text, no “out for delivery” alert—nothing. I only discovered the early delivery after the fact.
Unsafe drop-off: The courier left a 20 kg, $1,000 package in my building’s lobby, a public area anyone can access. No signature, no proof of receipt.
Customer service fail: When I visited the DHL office, the staff member (Akashdeep) claimed it was my responsibility to "keep checking the tracking page" just in case. Yet when DHL wanted a $20 duty payment, they emailed me multiple times—even late at night. So they can notify me when it’s about collecting money, but not when my package is actually arriving early?
I have no idea where my package is and DHL refuses to accept responsibility. Premium price clearly doesn’t buy reliability, accountability, or even basic common sense.
If you’re shipping anything important—especially valuables or documents—avoid DHL unless you enjoy gambling with your property and dealing with finger-pointing afterward.

Akash helped me and She is extremely professional, efficient, and courteous!
I know DHL is great and I assume is because their staff generally exceeds expectations of the customers.
