Hi

Complete newbie on here and am simply looking for who to use on a regualr basis. There seem to be several out there, all offering a similar price for this DHL Home 48 service.

Some have great prices and rubbish looking websites, some websites aren't always working.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I have taken the liberty of emailing uk courier express asking why they have stopped the parcelforce service. If I get a reply, I will post it here.

If they ARE using parceltrees account, how come that when I have tried to book through parceltree in the past I have had failed collections yet I have never had this with uk courier express?
Also, if they ARE using parceltrees account, how can they be offering a service at £6.99 and be making a profit?
Okay I'm a typical blonde so the answer might be staring me in the face.
All I can say is, every booking I have made via uk courier express, has been collected and delivered.

They may be doing the bookings them selves and then just get billed monthly, hence no failures. As for making any money; parceltree are still working on the old rates. But as I say I don't know, just be pretty pants to be using some who use someone who have lost a lot of peoples money (ppw/p-tree).

Yes freightsearch is fully automated with DHL and we are currently using them for our away collections and can't fault them.

Excluding SalePack these are as far as I'm aware currently the best rates available.

yea they seem competitive.. had alot of trouble getting australia for decent price.. theres seem good but sizes are bit disapointing.. 60x50x50 not great imo

why cant they just have one size like 120x60x60cms 30kgs insured to 150.00 that be great:D

wishful thinking lol
