Parcel force/ damaged tube, by HRE on Sept 29, 2018 7:41:19 GMT 1, Wanted a little help or advice. I recently send a tube with a print safely secured inside and it arrived damaged. Tube looked like it had be stamped on. It was insured and was sent via Parcelforce at royal mails outlet. I am of course going to claim or try and clam back the money. Has anyone had any experience with this and what was the outcome. Any tips on how best to achieve all the money back.

My understanding is that artwork is included when using Parcelforce within the U.K., but excluded when using (some of) their international services.
I recently queried this when sending something and wanted to check if it was worthwhile topping up the insurance to match the value. The reply mentioned the above, but also said that artwork would only be insured up to the price paid to acquire it, not necessarily the current value. Slightly vague.

Yeah just looked on the website says it is exempt from global express. This was sent within the UK so hopefully is ok.

Does that also work in the opposite direction?
