A delivery driver who quit after being threatened with a knife had to fight to get pay what he was owed.
Adrian Smith delivered parcels for DPD from its Snetterton depot from May 2020 until March this year. In February, while on a job in Great Yarmouth, he was threatened by a man with a knife.
He quit soon after, and said neither DPD, nor the DPD contractor he worked through, called Gee 5, checked to see how he was after the terrifying incident.
