    Thanks for that.

    Just in case I ever get desperate I will remember to avoid them.

    Does anyone have any contact details for ParcelKing.

    I booked my deliveries on Monday , collected wed and now stuck at TNT Birimingham because Parcel Kings account is on Stop. TNT are unable to do anything about it for me at the mo.

    Hope someone can help.

    I wonder if Parcelking & Home-Textiles where both using the same TNT account, as both accounts have been suspended & all parcels held until security checks are completed.

    There used to be loads of people doing it on ebay now I can only really rely on 2 and I wonder how they will cope with the other ones stopping.

    • DHL 48hr £7.00
      DHL 24hr £8.00

    Order must be placed 3 WORKING DAYS in advance for the FIRST collection from a particular address, thereafter bookings should be made by midnight on the day prior to the required collection.

    Hmm bit strange and i couldnt see a booking form.

    No booking form for that one so you have to email them.

    That can only end in tears when u get busy.

    I have enquired about this & this is the response:

    If, for example, you wanted to register your details with me today ( whether used or not thereafter) then things would be in place for the future.
