Used Home Textiles / Parcelking Delivery (WARNING)

Options
Ive put this in a new thread so hopefully more people will see it, Home Textiles & Parcelking are the same seller.

Ive had 4 parcels collected today via Home Textiles and then i get this email


"if you parcel has not been collcted and tnt comes DO NOT GIVE IT TO THEM!!!!


Hello there
this is home-textiles

TNT has blocked our account,we are taking this mater futher up with them and will be reporting tnt and take them to court

they are really blackmailing they have held all the parcels at the depot.

they have told us that they are holding all the parcels at the depot that have been collcted today adn possibily yesterday most of yestedays have been delivered

Please collect your parcel from the depot if it has been collected and not delivered and please take the TNT reciept with you as proof so they can give the parcel to you

Please do not ring TNT as they will say they can't talk to you only the person who's account it is BUT if you go to the depot and take your reciept and explain to them a friend booked the parcel and show the reciept they will return your parcel

We are sorry for this misshappen we did not expect it and are trying to sort everything out we will refund you your money for the collection and offer better collections service in the future when we will be up and running in a few working days

We really apoligise and ask you to collect your parcel asap if it has been stopped at the depot so you can get your parcel back asap

They will not give you your parcel but please argue with them and take your parcels off them and tell them that these are your parcels booked under some one else and it is not your fault would they just return the parcel back

If you do ring the depot they will say they can't help and need to speak to the account holder but please explain to them the account holder is a friend and they will give your parcel back.

Thank you and sorry for any invonvinience caused

Home-textiles

    Just found out today that our parcels are also being held by TNT & we are constantly being told by them to contact the account holder.

    I've even offered to pay them directly for the delivery but they won't have it, as all the parcels are being held for security reasons, which sounds more like until the invoice has been paid.

    TNT Birmingham: 0121 359 3400 ask for Annetta Smith & quote your consignment number.

    luckily they delivered mine back to me and the depot is only 12 miles away anyway so i would have gone there if they would not send them back , if your's is close i would go to them with your recepts from the driver and proof of your address like driving licence and demand them back as they are your property.

    I just told them a friend had booked them through there work, hometextiles TNT account name is "phoneclub"
