this plugin seems not to work at all, have valid API credentials but unable to activate parcel pickup option as a shipping method, it does not generate selector, and neither is working with correct region matching to settings for other delivery options such as courier.Hopefully this gets sorted but reading previous reviews I have a feeling it will be neglected.

Looks like not working like must. When selecting DPD Shipping options then its printing / displaying out multiple select boxes (four in my case) “Choose a Pickup Point”, all in the same data!?. Looks like not updated and in conflict with other shipping options. Tested lots of theme, same problem. Unfortunately, all you have to do is use the services of other suppliers.

Pickup point selector has too many options for some countries, which causes browser to freeze even on high-end computers. France has 14000 pickup points, for example. This leads to bad UX and customers might leave.
