The resident, who has asked to remain anonymous, was upset about the video which was recorded on their doorbell camera.

They said: "The driver threw the parcel like it was an empty box. These drivers are rude and don’t care what’s inside parcels. And people are paying a lot for their services. 

"This won’t make a difference but it might raise some awareness and maybe these drivers will be more careful, if they will notice a financial impact on their income." 

It was noted that, inside the parcel, were injectable pens worth 'a couple of hundred of pounds'.

However, the residents stated that 'luckily, the content was packed properly' and no damage had been caused to the parcel.
