I’ve never experienced them not knocking on the door, which has been the case since Covid (prior to which they’ve rung the bell). How is posting on TOTV going to change Amazon’s policy. I have a Ring doorbell and a Nest cam in the front of my house. Won’t miss a thing.

I suspect "secure" does not mean a safety deposit box or locked room; "secure" probably means out of the elements.

Amazon ALWAYS rings the doorbell at my place - it turns out to be a weekly confirmation that the bell still works.

I feel slighted. Just checked my doorbell. It works fine. I had Amazon deliveries yesterday and today when I was home. No ring or knock. They leave the package on the porch and they are gone in a flash. Unless I am nuts, this must happen to other people.

I haven't had any problems with theft, but, if a package were stolen from my porch, I would expect it to be their responsibility, even if they emailed me a photo of a "delivered" package.

Delivery Information

"If no one is at the address when delivery is attempted, we will leave the package in a secure location. If no secure location is available, or the delivery requires someone to be present, Amazon will send an e-mail to the e-mail address on file. We'll make three delivery attempts on consecutive days. If the third delivery attempt is unsuccessful your package will be returned to Amazon for a refund.

You may find that the tracking will sometimes show that a package has been delivered, but you haven't received it. In these instances, check to see if the package was left with a receptionist or neighbor. Deliveries can occur between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. local time. To avoid disturbing you, our drivers will knock on the door, ring the doorbell, or directly contact you for delivery only between the hours of 8:00 am - 8:00 pm local time, unless your delivery is scheduled or requires a signature. For scheduled and signature deliveries, our drivers will place a call to the phone number you provided for your order, but will not attempt to deliver the package outside the time frame of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. unless they are able to reach you. You can visit Find a Missing Package That Shows As Delivered for more information. If you checked these places, and you still can't locate your package, please contact us and we'll be happy to look into it for you."

I know it's not a big deal unless your package is stolen. But, I find it strange that one of the largest companies in the country has a written delivery procedure that they routinely ignore. I just wish they would knock on the door which they are supposed to do.
