i bet their fee is just as much as the vat!

Parcel Force!!!!, by njr911 on Oct 10, 2008 13:27:39 GMT 1, I managed to get ยฃ40 back off Customs for a DAIN (OG)
Got it back last week......the DAIN was delivered in February!!
They are fucking bastards and will do whatever they can not to pay, FFS! It must have cost them ยฃ100's in man hours just looking into it for a ยฃ40 refund. Loads of letters asking for things I'd already sent...gggrrr don't get me started I feel the rage building

Parcel Force!!!!, by Ruggs on Oct 10, 2008 13:37:22 GMT 1, Kindly request the sender to mark the item as a 'gift' in future. No one I know has ever been charged for something that's been marked as a 'gift'!
