I had 3 parcels from DHL in the last week - no issues / delays.

DHL & FED EX came thro 'fine for us as well.

Even came from a new supplier so that was a bonus

Is that 23 days in total from the country it was posted to or 23 days total time with customs? Also the charges you recieved how did they calculate what you should pay?!
Thanks

I have first parcel awaiting customs clearance since 28/5
second went through and is stuck at international hub received and processed 1/6 but that was sent later than tthe first.
cracking me up is the 12 delay true.

[Ant]

[Hushhush]

i rang parcel force and customs in coventry, thay said all EMS parcels between May 1st - May 14th are beiong checked and any item after that will be a random but may have a delay due to the back log... i have since started using DHL (iv had to make bigger orders from my supplyer to get the posting free) but every parcel since has sailed strate thru...

i think there will be alot of EMS delays untill the olympics are over

also i didnt post it in my name or my address just incase the first one had been stopped but ive recieved no letter telling me its seized yet so fingers crossed

[Hushhush]

Hi ant


So did you reorder and it's come through so seems as may parcels were getting checked

That's how it seems reading everything.

[Hushhush]

Hi I spoke to pf they said customs are 15 days behind said I shud have movement all being well on first parcel tomorrow or the next day and one that was handed to customs on 1/6/12 shud have movement on 15th or 16th

Not very accurate but all I can do is await. Or or

[Hushhush]

Any your parcels from may arrived yet Ant

Not so much as a re-order my suppplier sent me out the same thing but only a fraction of my order is garuntee'd , but yes was the same thing , sent to a different address and name , i havent received any from may though , parcelforce said theres still delays and the guy above said theres still delays also, if its seized would of had a letter through already so im hoping they get there act together and get me my first parcel that cost me 1500gbp lol
