For each of our stays at WL (multiple over the last several years) and AKL (first time Dec 2019) we have had problems with Bell Services being not present. Arriving by magical express or the DCL transfer bus, we had to send one of up to the building to find a human who could help us with our bags, and even then it took a bit. Nobody came to the bus dropping off guests to see if anyone needed assistance.
For our most recent stay in December, when leaving both WL and AKL we called with plenty of time for assistance bringing our bags down (early than they had recommended we call when we asked) and they took much longer than they said they would; at AKL that meant nearly missing the bus. When we arrived at AKL, our room wasn't ready for a number of ours so we left our bags with Bell Services while we had dinner and explored the resort. When it came time to finally get our bags delivered to the room they took nearly an hour after we made the request in person (which was a challenge itself because there was nobody at the desk... had to wait about 10 minutes for someone to come to the desk). I will not even get into the saga of AKL not being able to find my grocery order and denying it had been delivered and the grocery delivery company having to intervene to tell them exactly where it was located and logged at which point AKL acknowledged they had it.
That said, once you actually GOT the service, the employees delivering or picking up our bags were professional, friendly and did a great job. The problem is getting them in the first place.

My son had the same issue you did with the grocery order. AKL - Jambo denied having it, my son blew off hours of his day waiting around for it, called Amazon, who tried to straighten it out with the resort but ended up refunding the transaction, THEN Bell services pulled a magic act and found it... saying the person who dropped it off had not logged it.
They're a mess.
