Parcelforce Worldwide Express 48

OK, been concertedly looking again at new RM prices and thought i had spotted something re. the above, but now think maybe i'm being stupid.......

this is on the UK side of the price list - it doesn't feature on the Abroad side.

In theory, if they are quoting a price on the leaflet for 'Parcelforce Worldwide Express48' i would have thought that would mean that was the cost to send it anywhere in the world, but methinks that can't be right?

    I believe that reads as the service is called worldwide, but as it is on the UK only page the prices quoted are for UK only. The worldwide service for non Uk parcels would be higher.

  • The name of the courier is 'Parcelforce Worldwide' because they ship worldwide. The service name is 'Express 48' which is a domestic service, supplied by a courier that ship worldwide.
