    Was it an Amazon branded delivery truck? Sounds more like a shipping company fuck up if not

      No idea whether or not it was a branded truck (it was a while ago), but it wasn’t under any other sort of brand - Amazon deliveries are done by people employed by or directly contracted for Amazon.

        All of my amazon packages come through UPS or the postal service. Not really sure how much interaction they actually have with Amazon

          In the UK it’s either Amazon vans or unmarked vans (eg a self employed person who is contracted by Amazon and uses their own vehicle).
