| Compare | InPost | Evri |
|---|---|---|
| Verdict | Depends | Depends |
| Best for | Vinted and marketplace sellers | Low-value UK parcels |
| Who it's not for | Merchants needing guaranteed delivery SLAs | Urgent, time-critical shipments |
| Privacy | No breach of InPost's core service found in sources; known CVEs affect its WordPress/WooCommerce merchant plugins and InPost UK warns of fraudulent accounts.⁹ | No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed; the bigger risk is criminals impersonating Evri in smishing scams. |
| Support quality | Complaints reportedly go unanswered; small-claims frustration | Customers struggle to reach humans; BBC-documented complaints |
| Public sentiment | Users split sharply: many praise cheap, easy locker drop-off, while a vocal minority report lost parcels, ignored complaints, and quit the service.¹ | Sentiment is sharply split: massive volumes and low prices, but a long trail of lost parcels, failed deliveries, and unreachable support.12 |
| Biggest gotcha | Complaints unresolved enough that users pursued small-claims court10 | Getting a human on support is genuinely hard; Reddit threads hunt for phone numbers14 |
