Re: Avoid this Couriers......
Maybe it would be a good idea to have the name of the firm here. Local shops have been named on here so I can't understand why the mods have removed the name of this possibly dodgy company as it could be an important warning for others.

Re: Avoid this Couriers......
Sounds to me like this outfit need taking off the providers books. Am sure most decent senders will not be happy about their attitude. It stinks, thay are being paid to provide a service which at best can only be described as sub-standard!!

If it's the scam I was referring to there never was any parcel in those cases.

Re: Avoid this Couriers......
So looks like somebody was using the name of an existing company and creating a scam.
