Cheap Parcel Delivery Thread MK3

  • Sorry my mistake :(
  • I noticed an old site www.senditeasy.com has had a revamp and the booking systems and prices (£6.64 plus vat) look the same as www.parcelbroker.co.uk who I use currently.

    Anyone got any ideas whether these are owned by the same company? The Ltd company names for both the websites are different though?
  • Parceltree still down. I'm surprised claire12 has paid us a visit.
  • parcel2go discount code SDHALF, expires midnight saturday. DHL 48hr £5.03. About the only time when they are worth using.
  • I arrange a collection for a DHL Service from one of the resellers etc and I'm not in when they come to collect it?

    Can I get my money back or have I blown it and it's tough luck?

    It's worth a try to get the money back, i've missed a couple of collections before with DHL and when I called to say I was out, the guy just said no problem, we'll re-book for tomorrow!

    to be fair i wouldnt expect my money back if i wasnt in
  • OMG, once again I've been away and return to bedlam.
    I cannot believe how many resellers sites are now closed/undergoing maintainance/not working etc.
    What the hell is going on?
    Who is the cheapest (and more important still functioning) now?

  • Direct Parcel Distribution are the cheapest, followed by freightsearch.

    I expect I know what your thinking on DPD, but we're using them for USA etc. and they're fine.
