Pickle with DigiKey and UPS

Mike Perkins · 2014-04-14T22:09:57+00:00

I ordered components from DigiKey a short while ago. Unfortunately no one was in when UPS delivered. The UPS UK website says that 3 delivery attempts will be made. However the consignment has gone to a "shop" and is now stuck there. UPS require "government photo-ID" for me me to retrieve the consignment from the shop and I currently don't have any at hand and UPS won't attempt any more deliveries. Yes I can get my photo-ID but it's not at hand at the moment, I can have something sent to me, but this is all very silly and myopic. Has anyone else been in the same situation and how did they overcome the problem? -- Mike Perkins Video Solutions Ltd

So there is no way to tell who is who? Amazing.

If you aren't required to identify yourself, how do they know?

Nope, not unless you have to check baggage. Buy the ticket with your computer, print it and get to the station on time and go board your train. Not much worse than getting on the Muni or the light rail.
