You have to submit a seizure letter in order to get your items reshipped or your money back?

[Hushhush]

My supplier said he will re ship too but is tellingme to await bit longer it don't help wen your in neeeeD haha thanks for ur reply's ant


I will just keep bugging them

[Ant]

They only shipped what was garuntee'd which was a quarter of my order, just arrived today everything intact not tampered or the box even opened in anyway , but wasnt in my name or my address , just being cautious ( if thats how its spelt haha ) , no seizure letter has of yet so if it comes that is a bonus

Hi Powerjam , sorry for not replying back . I never had the " Awaiting customs clearance" twice in the one EMS order until today . I think it is because the EMS parcel is about 8-10KG in weight . Here is a copy and paste of my Tracking details :

Aargh ! Does anyone know if you have to pay the charge do you need to pay this first or can you pay on delivery just like DHL ?

[hirdschemicals]

doing my head in with this Olympic ****, parcels getting delayed all over the shop, If my parcels are seized will i get some kind of letter saying this?

[Hushhush]

Yeah you should get letter but don't reply to it unless you know it's allowed what you have ordered


And mine still stuck since 28/5

And

Other one since 1/6

Pf don't have clue about customs

And can't be backlog at customs as in all other parcels coming through we must be unlucky once that getting them stopped

[Hushhush]

Wilerbernet

Parcelforce send letter to say you owe this then you pay then they send

What did you order

[NotAHappyBunny]

hi

once it's at your local depot - you can phone to pay for the charges - this will speed up the delivery by a few days.

Artmad


How you know we're seized you get letter or did it say on Pf site

[Hushhush]

No movement still nothing on site about customs having backlog and royal mail is only on about delays due to Olympic torch and bad rain which is not going to cause more than couple days issues

It's defo customs inspecting away

[BlackBox]

its showing Status Held on first parcel

I'm having the same problem, mine got posted on 2nd june from china and on the 13th it got processed and cleared but when my tracking said that on a previous order i didnt get it til another 3 weeks...i thought it had been seized but it suprisingly turned up.

Can anyone tell me...i want to order something from china but am thinking to do it by parcel force? Will this guarantee my delivery or do customs open the items like they do with parcels by ems? I am probably wrong but i was under the impression that if you pay for delivery by parcelforce/ups type company then customs let them through and quite quickly. Anyone know?

thanks
L

[hirdschemicals]

i would also be interested in this, but im thinking ems handles the china side and parcelforce handles the package when it land here after the customs have had there play with it lol, so basically all the same issues arise again, my best bet is to let this Olympic **** blow over then bang it for all its worth lol

[BlackBox]

just placed another order on thursday just wait see what happens

[servlox]

Got a $29 package thats coming in from HK via EMS stopped at customs and so far the following status. ( Its items that can be purchased in UK but much much cheaper abroad so xxpecting now to get a total rip off Britian charge, seems as though we are being hit hard at the moment to disuade us buying anything from overseas, as not had trouble in the past )

So you ordered somthing from china worth £18 and you get been charged inport tax

[jamieharing]

Can anyone here help. My parcel coming from China I had declared the correct value which is fine. On the ParcelForce website it is saying "Revised charges to be paid" has anyone had this issue before? I then called ParcelForce to ask what the charges would add upto and they said £179.73 which makes no sense as my parcel is worth £280.32 which with the handling fee and the customs tax and duty it should only be £80.77 anyone help?

Nice to get stung when you declare the correct value!!
