Protocol for takeaway delivery men/women and first floor flats 19:50 - Apr 25 with 9086 viewsunbelievablue

I'll set the scene. To reach my flat block you have to turn off the road and pass, immediately, through a set of automatic gates, driving round the back of the road facing block of flats and into a rear car park, next to which my block, perpendicular to the aforementioned block, majestically lies.

There's one communal front door, with buzzers for each flat, then a brief, minimalist lobby and stairs.

When the delightful gentleman, armed with my Lamb Madras, drives through the gates, round the back, jumps out of his car, and presses the buzzer to flat 29, should I:

A) Pick up the intercom, greet him politely, and 'buzz him up', waiting for the knock at my flat door?
B) Pick up the intercom, greet him politely, inform him 'I'll be right down' and proceed down the stairs to the front of the building?
C) A.N.Other.

Hmm, not sure there but I think justeat would take all of the delivery fee for themselves. I deliver pizza for a well known chain so there's no delivery fee for the customer but I get £1 for each delivery as standard.

I appreciate every tip, but especially the ones where the customer has already paid but gives me a quid anyway. But if you don't tip, it's all good, it's not a particularly taxing job and we're getting paid anyway! Just being polite will do!


I generally buy off Justeat and prepay and give a quid to the driver even if I have paid a £1 delivery charge. Maybe I will skip Justeat in future if the charge is £2

I can never get a lamb curry right.


In what respect?

I've used it a couple of times, like you said it means you don't have to talk to anyone!

Sometimes there's no fee and sometimes it's more than £2 so I really don't know what goes on there
