    You can phone them on an expensive 0870 number. Here are some alternative nos to try from Say No to 0870
    0191 512 7003
    020 7250 2888
    01908 687000
    Good luck. They may well be holding it for you to pay customs charges and VAT before they will clear it for delivery. You can pay that with a card if that is the case.

    Not to put too much of a dampener on this I hope, but when I have received parcels through Parcel Force with customs to pay, they have not allowed me to pay by card and have demanded either cash or cheque.
