Amazon has been accused of 'disgusting service' after a delivery worker was caught throwing a package on a Swindon customer's front path.
Paul Chambers was so shocked by what he saw that he made a post online sharing a video of the incident.
The Grange Park resident had ordered some glass ribbons for his arts and crafts but was horrified when he saw the care - or rather lack of it - that his items were treated with when they were delivered.
He said: "I was horrified that this could have been a fragile parcel and the fact he didn't even knock on the door."

Paul added he had not previously experienced any issues with Amazon but said he felt that this particular individual had shown a 'lack of respect' and needed 'retraining'
"I didn't decide to complain to Amazon this time as I hope I have made my point on social media.
"I just hope Amazon sees it!"
Amazon has confirmed that it is looking into the incident.
A spokesperson said: "We have very high standards for the delivery service providers we work with and expect every package to be handled with care. We're looking into this."
