Thank God. I f*ckin' HATE GLS with a passion. Slow, stupid, rude, incompetent and they never answer the phone.

And what makes you think that DHL / Securicor will be any better?

I really don't understand why the USPS cant let the other national postal carriers do the job.

I'm gonna risk a public stoning here and say that GLS were exceptionnaly nice to me last week and they always answered the phone. Ringing drivers, tracking them down and getting back to me. The girl even sounded hot!

Then again they mis-sent the parcel the day before.

I use DHL all the time. They're okay.
Securicor are a security company so I don't think they would be better at delivering freight and parcels, etc....

Agreed though - they should give it to An Post.

As in Securicor Omega Express, recently bought out by Deutche Post World Net, and undergoing a rebranding as DHL.

Probably because the other companies were cheaper.

This is the BEST news I've heard all year - no more dealing with those bunch of reprobates - they are more bothersome than €ircon & that's saying something!!!!!! Now if only Biddy could have the rug yanked out from under her the same way...... ahhh it's good to dream...

A package I had to RMA to Komplett went missing for 2 months with GLS. There was no option, it had to be sent to htme by post and they send it on. It just fell out of the sky one day with absolutely no explanation
