Deliveries to sites

Hello all, I have just been told that the Caravan and Motorhome Club Wardens are not allowed to receive / sign for parcels whilst you are staying on site.
I have orders bits and bobs from Amazon etc before whilst staying on sites without any issue but today I was told by a Warden at West Ayton this was not allowed. Apparently they are allowed to sign for parcels if it is an emergency and it is prearranged with them.
I ordered a new cable for my wife’s new phone as it had a USB-C connector.

£319 for my stay here... I am not asking for much just a signature and a 1 hour home for a small box.

CC Ltd needs to learn the meaning of service.

Well if that is true (which it isn't IMHO) then I can't understand why club sites are so popular and remain so?

However, the details are not really important it's the principle that CC Ltd actively won't allow a minor service to be performed.

I am not sure that this is correct ....... are you? 

It is more likely that they give discretion to the warden to say yay or nay I suspect

Maybe you and I are just too self reliant CS and ask for help when it is important?

I agree with David in that "what a fuss" sums it up but, in my view, that phrase reflects the song and dance of posting the tale on here rather than simply accepting that's the way things are. It's not really worth getting wound up about, is it?

I'm fairly certain that I read a notice at one club site that deliveries eg Tesco were not allowed on site and if you did make an order it was up to you to be outside the gate to receive it.  I thought that was fair enough.

What I find slightly surprising is that, given phones are now considered essential to the life support system, one would set off without the requisite cables in the first place.
