I've worked for 4 different companies through amazon and by far Deva where the best. Got let go because I was spitting blood which I understand but was very well run in my opinion.

Interview for position after rushing through all forms - 135 pound a day, start work a week later, turns into 80 after tax, routes weren't routes mostly sweeps, but nah you get paid the same for all routes, get paid 40 pound for a whole day of driving cross country, used 280 pound petrol, get 125 back... Gives me handover Document, find out after asking where my other paycheck was, oh no its a damages form as well which you signed, charges me 400 quid for other peoples scuff marks on the van...all in all, easier working for a chinese sweatshop, do not work for these clowns.

I can only speak for my own personal experience. I have only worked for deva for 3 weeks as I have left because I have full time employment. The money really is as good as they say, however I was owner driver. The managers were good and there for me every step of the way. Amazon have very strict rules and protocols but if you follow them you be ok. I have had all my money owed payed so my advice if your thinking of doing it is go for it. The works demanding an sometimes physical but you will be well payed. Good luck.

Avoid this firm like the plague! Had interview with Ross the lead driver and briefly met Karl the manager and had the drug/alcohol test. Later after CRB came back told they were sorting a Van asap. Got told Van had arrived but then got text from Karl that due 2 a screw up by Amazon a e-mail address that they set up for your driver app was wrong so due 2 security procedure they would have 2 submit another DBS check taking more time! Deva use their own company I think Securitax to do all your tax/NI etc at 15 per wk I found out they had got my own e-mail address wrong wot a joke! Finally at short notice I went 2 pick a van up from Amazon in Leeds in the pouring Van Karl had already filled in the Vehicle check sheet but I looked round the Van because of the rain we both missed a small crack in the bottom of windscreen and a small dent in the back door that was added the next day. Before u take the Van u have 2 speak with the fleet dept and I mentioned the front tyres were bald they and Karl disputed this so the next day I took the Van 2 Kwik Fit on account and they put new tyres on! Bearing in mind u pay 195 Per wk for the Van average of 85-100 for fuel and being paid around 114 per day is the job worth it? I found this firm timewasters and not honest hence on the day I was due 2 start I give them the Van keys back as they were going 2 send a driver out 2 follow me for the first 20 drops or so. I am aware of the Coronavirus but someone could have come with me wearing a mask and sitting by the window. They couldn't even sort out my ID in time meaning I had 2 wear a temp badge where I was supposed 2 have someone with me at all times.Overall a disaster!!!
