Parcel Farce..
Well its true..
I order two packages, one one posted from Germany on the 4th and arrived today ... not too bad i thought, However the parcel i ordered and was posted from COVENTRY on the third and still isnt here... sent by 48 hour delivery... the tracking show it landing in the leeds sorting warehouse, then going out then going back in, then out so I've called them and they trying to sort it.... I mean.. its not so bad but the post office seriously damaged the last set of cans to arrive and the longer these are in thier hands the more i fear for there safety! why is it so difficult and why done they work like couriers? |

Re: Parcel Farce..
Imaginary parcel to go with your imaginary friend?
Hey BluePete et al, whats the penalty for having an imaginary can? Oh wait, your mate DID turn up in the end - oh well maybe the cans will too..... :P

Mate bought a PS3 with GT5. PS3 arrived but the package had been craftily opened from the bottom and the game had been stolen. He complained but Parcel Farce took no responsibilty when the vendor contacted them. Feckers.

Re: Parcel Farce..
I actually much prefer to receive by PF than DHL. If I'm not into receive it at least I can collect from my nearest post office rather than the DHL centre 20 miles away.

Re: Parcel Farce..
PF/RM are great, all told IMO .
For every person whinging about the service, I'm sure there are a lot more satisfied people.......a bit tiring, to hear how every service in the UK is the worse in the world As for damaged items , yes it does happen but I've also received item where I've been actually shocked that no damage had occured....poor packaging by sender. Also have too many people who whinge about P+P cost whilst forgetting that there are two 'Ps' in P+P Ben |
