It drives me crazy

[O.C.]

I ordered some accessories from the States for the GTR, (Hand deflectors) the plan being to fit them prior to my recent trip to France, they left the States on 23/08/12, arrived in the UK 24/08/12, and sat in a holding warehouse for 9 days thereby missing my departure for France 

Since my return the Parcelforce website has been "Temporarily unavailable" so I can't even pay the charges of £25.91 which covers Import VAT and a clearance fee in order to get my goods delivered...this is Parcelforce we are talking about, not some tin pot back street delivery company..........well on second thoughts

Is it any wonder that this country is in the mess that's its in

Yah !!! Glad to see that it is not only us in SA that suffer with this problem !!
Nah, very frustrating I agree !!!!

You should be able to go down to the local Parcel Farce depot and pick them up... thas what I usually do cos the buggers never get the re-delivery right.

- we're blessed with good delivery here , but are taxed to death.

Yep that's an option Mogs....BUT its 113 mile round trip to Preston, and I reckon I'll be paying enough as it is   

You were right when you said Parcel FARCE

[Kwikasfuki]

The best is when you're waiting at home all day for the parcel and no one turns up.

You ring them up and they say they called and no one was in.

WTF is the card then?

[O.C.]

Oh yeah, I've been on the receiving end of that one Asif....fortunately the Parcel Farce guy that delivers here is a really good bloke and is always prepared to leave the parcel with a neighbour if I'm out 

BTW the ParcelForce site, despite displaying a "temporarily unavailable" message , was in fact available after all........   bloody w*-kers...so I' paid up and will await delivery today, or not as the case may be
