Who the #### is Intelcom anyway? Some third rate courier when UPS/Canada Post are backed up?

I called Intelcom again this morning they said the truck with most of the shipments actually comes in from Vancouver and is slated to show up around 1pm today.
Given the weather I wouldn't count on it making it today either. Intelcom is basically scanning all of their deliveries as delivered so that they look to Amazon like
they are meeting their guaranteed delivery commitments lol. When I go into my shipping details it shows outs for delivery (on the day it was supposed to come)
and then delivered 60 seconds later. So yea its pretty clear they are just scanning everything as delivered to avoid looking like they cant handle the volumes to Amazon.
I left a message about this with Amazon. I think its really shady of Intelcom.

My Intelicom came from Ontario this week. Was a little worried but it was delivered fine. It was a Black Friday order, and didn't ship until Monday, arrived yesterday.

One time Intelcom lost a package of mine, when I was on the phone with their customer service the guy actually recommended "I use a courier like Purolator or UPS".

That's hilarious - they always struck me as the same sort of drivers, junky cars, rough around the edges type dudes, but didn't know they were literally the same. Probably a good day job that still allows for pizza work in the evening.

Working from home, I can watch the front door from my desk. Had Intelicom deliver an Amazon parcel yesterday and the dude showed up in a nice late model Nissan SUV and was dressed better than I was. Package was left in a good spot on the step, not thrown or anything. Just like the parcel I had delivered by Canada Post about two hours after that.

Point taken.

Wonder if Uber coming back will result in less Intelcom drivers...one I actually spoke to was an uber driver before.

I think you'll just be sitting between packages and pizzas in your next Uber. I'd be ok with a slight detour for a complimentary slice.
