How long did it take to turn up? I posted a parcel last Monday and it hasn't turned up yet I phoned the post office on Monday and they said give it to the end of the week

Any advice please?

Thanks

 

We use them pretty reguarly, to answer, 'its as long as a piece of string' they are very hit & miss, both for Uk and overseas deliveries, mind you so are most of them, the only real services are the high priority ones offered by DHL, Fedex etc, which cost many times more.

 

Royal Mail Standard Parcel service takes 3 to 5 working days to deliver.

This is not a guaranteed service, so sometimes it can take longer.

I recently posted something to Scotland using Standard Parcel Service and it took 3 working days to arrive.

 

I was going to use parcel2go but I was at a meeting the day that I wanted it picked up so I had to take it to the post office instead in hindsight it'd have still turned up earlier if I'd posted it via pacel2go a day later

I'm sending something else today but I'm using parcel2go. It'll be interesting to see when that turns up.

 

I posted 3 off Monday morning, via RM and they arrived before 12noon Tuesday as they said it would ,
now Citylink on the other hand have lost a parcel i sent nearly 2 weeks ago a trace is out but no luck as yet....

 

I'm getting worried now

 

As posted a week or two ago, Parcel Farce have a 100% non-delivery record to my pad.

Securicor also failed to deliver my oil from Goode's on an overnighter last week.

Yet again another delivery refund. This internet buying is a cheap way of buying anything.

You order something from maybe the other side of the country that would cost a fair bit to pick up in fuel, you pay delivery, it never turns up, you go to your local depot, (whilst on the way shopping) to pick it up, you get a delivery refund!!

Sorted.

 

parcel-force is 3-5 working dsays! but i'd allow 7!
i posted a full neon kit something a week last saturday to someone... and they got it on the monday!! 2days!!! lol

depending on weight.. use special delivery! by noon next working day.

 

Paul, you PM

 

I just got a PM and it's turned up I posted at 2 1/2 weeks ago though

On a side note I sent something else last week using parcel2go and it was great they came here and picked it up and the guy got it in a day or two Much better service.

Thanks nescoob1 you made my day!

I will never use Parcel Force ever again now

 

Never had anything go missing with parcel farce- although ive heard the similar horror stories.....

I try to send royal mail special rather than parcel facre now- although its probably the same people
