Would you allow Amazon access to your empty home?
From 28/11/17 Amazon will begin rolling out this service in America:

Maybe if i had a storm door but i don't so no.

No chance, someone could follow them, and gain entry to your house.
Your insurance company would have a field day refusing any theft claims. They can leave it with a neighbour. |

I am curious how one grants Amazon access... cut them a key?
Yeah sure... |

You have a master. Say you are having family around and you are running late, you can send them via an app "A key" and they can let themselves in. I would use this, only if I had a front porch that had a second house door. |

My insurance company insists on a minimum level of security for all outside doors, so may not pay out if I used this system. Another excuse not to pay out and a reason that I hadn't thought about before I voted 'other' as it's put me off. |

It’s all explained in the article...

Sounds like a right faff. What's wrong with shove it behind the Wheely bin?

My house has a porch then a locked door to the living room but there is no way I would grant access, what I do sometimes is leave the garage open if hubby's motor bike is not there but most of the time I just leave the shed door open and leave instructions for the item to left there.

If you're going to be out that often I'd go for some giant post box next to the front door.

This is crazy to me. Your house could be emptied

Indeed, all of the Amazon couriers that i've ever had have sounded like EU nationals.
If so, they might be honest, they might not. If not, even with the film evidence, I doubt they'd ever be caught with the EU open border system. I know that the police co-operate in bringing criminals who have absconded abroad, but with them saying that some burglaries won't now be investigated due to a lack of resources, I doubt that they would bother tracing someone abroad for a TV etc. Earlier this year a friend had a delivery whilst she was out and he stole all her garden furniture! It was only when she told the company that she had it recorded on security cameras that he brought the items back with some wet excuse that he thought they'd been left out for the binmen! Maybe the police would pursue people abroad for something like murder, but not this. |
