if you dont put the account number on it you will get the bill, you will have to get freight search to sort it out.

Cheapest 24hr I'm aware of, by quite a way.

Saletrack quoted me £6.30 + Vat today.......;) and that is on their highest tariff!

They're cheaper for everything if you are a business. However, for people sending one offs/infrequently freightsearch are offering the best price.

Thinking back to our PPW days when the driver left a yellow book with us. We never filled out the 'invoice to:' section and just left it blank. So I wouldn't worry Pepsi.

Just ordered a collection with Parcel Machine for the first time.

I've noticed that their prices add VAT, yet their invoice says 'not yet VAT registered'. That's forbidden isn't it?

Yes, that's forbidden. Ask them for their VAT registration number and verify with the Tax Office.

actually I did say I booked it through an agent to the driver, and he said he'd look up the account info himself. hopefully it's all ok anyway. and thanks again armitage for the help

Has the main page been updated yet? Can't believe interparcel are now the cheapest guys (after cashback)... there's gotta be someone cheaper?
