The paint sprayer from Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire ordered a book for his wife Gemma but it was too thick to fit through the door.

Mr Hodson posted the picture of his damaged letterbox to Facebook on Friday and said: “Hi, this is the aftermath of your delivery driver trying to force a package through our letterbox today.

“Which of us is going to be paying for this then I wonder?”

The parcel had been completely wedged and stuck in the letterbox then forced so hard that the internal side of the letterbox was ripped clean off the door.”

He said: “The parcel had been completely wedged and stuck in the letterbox then forced so hard that the internal side of the letterbox was ripped clean off the door.

“The letterbox needs replacing as it is damaged beyond repair. I am expecting them to pay for a replacement letterbox at least and I am even happy to fit it myself.

“My initial thoughts were total disbelief and how much force was needed to do that.

“Usually all our Amazon parcels get delivered to the house opposite as we have stated this on our Amazon accounts.

“I messaged Amazon UK via their Facebook page as trying to lodge a complaint through the website is nigh on impossible for this through the website.

“They emailed me on the day it happened for contact details but I am yet to hear back from them.

Social media users were also quick to slam the online retailer.

Deborah Freeman added: “Jesus Christ. What did they push that through with a bloody hammer.”

The Sun contacted Amazon for comment.
