A warning to anyone who has things delivered from this company.

For the past few years I have used an Internet booking service for a freight company based in Paisley.
I have had the odd hiccup in the past with things going to the wrong addresses but it always got sorted out in the end successfully.
This year alone I have received a badly damaged escos bonnet,ripped and scuffed leather interior and I sent rs2000 headlights and sidelights and the arrived smashed to smithereens.
With all the wrapping that was put on all items except possibly the interior in my opinion they were damaged maliciously by some moron.
Every corner of the bonnet was damaged but someone has slammed it down to damage it the way it was damaged and the lights were wrapped in lots of bubble wrap,packed into a box with more bubble wrap and were put in a big sturdy box.
I can't claim insurance on anything as their excluded items list covers pretty much anything you would ever want to post.
Before this year I think they used dhl but lately they have started using someone else and that seems to be when the problems started.
So I suggest checking what insurance does cover,insure any items up to the correct value and going overboard if you are posting something as 3 times I've been bitten in the ass with this company.the name of whom is hinted at in the top of the thread!

 

was just going to use them today for my alloys,last time i used them about 2 years ago for a focus st door they managed to lose it only for me to find out a couple of weeks later they hadnt collect it but a different parcel.

 

Fuck using them then..!!!

 

Use them all the time to ship alloys about and never had a problem

 

Amazing i have said so many times not to trust them because they had left my car interior damaged and outside my house for any body to take, and then i phoned them and got well you got it then hung up. All i got was well i have used them and they are good, hopefully people will listen this time.

 

Hi Lee,great to hear your still about on here,haven't heard from you in ages,are you still in GE in Aberdeen?
Sorry to hear about your courier troubles but you know I drive up and down the country quite regularly so I can always pick/drop stuff off for you fella,I owe you enough favours as it is!!!!

 

i used them onece for some allys and service was fine, i tend to use ups though through interparcel, never had any issues with them, worth trying IMO.

 

Glad to hear it's not just me having problems,I'm no dealer or trader but I send and receive a lot of car parts for various projects etc and I need a good courier and I'd say I spend around £100 a month easy,this year I have had 2 pallets,1 interior,2 bonnets,various boxes plus other stuff so that's quite a lot for 1 person.
Does ups have an easy booking system like the courier I'm not using any more.

Ive used this company for years and never had a problem although ive not sent anything since last summer thereabouts.
