Sure enough she found the elusive email on her phone with the OTP and read it out for the driver. I'm sure it could work with some drivers but he even said to me he was new and I could see he was quite clearly trying to do everything by the book. Maybe if I had spoke to customer services on the phone in front of him he could have been tricked into handing it over but my instinct says it wouldn't have made a difference.

Regardless I got my refund anyway after I contacted the chat assistant complaining of receiving the wrong item. Sometimes it really is just too easy.

So you claimed wrong item & got refunded? Did they not want the item returned?
