    2 more questions!

    Placed an order a couple of hours ago. Does it take long form the payment email to come through?

    Is there any benefit to using Parcel Motel over getting it delivered directly to me. Is the likelihood it getting lifted by customs any different?

    I was going to place an order with Sandy yesterday and she got back to me by Whatsapp to say orders will be processed after October 8th due to national holidays.

    I'd also be curious as to whether it's best to go Parcel Motel or direct to Irish address.

    When you make an order on the website with sandy there is a message for anyone ordering in the rep of Ireland to use parcel motel
    This has been covered once or twice in the thread

    Has anyone ever got a package stopped in customs with an post? Got a package from shoot been accessed by customs. Do they look for much of a fee?

    Ended up paying €31.00 charge. Didn't charge for the kids jerseys. Could be worse.

    Mentioned once ir a million times.

    I think my latest package has missed customs in the UK.

    Status is at sorted, which usually is after a customs check occurs

    Just got delivery from Sandy! Got the new Leeds home kit not perfect though, feels blue's a bit too dark and crest is a bit off! Can't complain for the price, but feel like it could be improved!

    Few pics here in case anyone is curious!

    https://shop.leedsunited.com/JER20101

    Must compare to a real one in JD Sports in town!
    Also looking at ordering a Leeds shirt
    How do you find the sizing,I'm usually an XL/XXL,but few Jerseys I got before were to tight,is XXL the biggest size sandy or shoot do?

    Collected order this morning in parcel motel, quality very good, no customs charges.

    So my latest order arrived in the UK with Parcel force. My third package.

    The first two orders went like this :

    Arrived in UK - INTERNATIONAL HUB
    Custom charges applied - IH
    Released by customs - IH
    Sorted. - NATIONAL HUB
    Sent to Belfast depot - NH
    Awaiting customs payment - Belfast Hub

    All within 1 day. Id pay charges and it would be delivered soon after.

    This time its been like :

    Arrived in UK - INTERNATIONAL HUB
    Sorted - NATIONAL HUB

    Again all within 1 day (30 sept).

    No movement since.

    Should I call or email Parcel Force for an update or should I be more patient?

    How do you track a package from Sandy? Ordered & paid on 29th August. Status just says shipped. Selected standard shipping to a Parcel Motel address. Tracking number provided but doesn't work on ParcelForce tracking.

    Thanks!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭splashthecash


    I presume the tracking number you were given starts with “LZ” - that is the case I use

    Did you use the free delivery option? I see people mention parcel force charging customs fee. Is that paid shipping? As I understand the free shipping is picked up by Royal Mail.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,136 ✭✭✭mossy464


    Got the man utd 90/92 away and Netherlands 88 shirts on dhgate and they are great quality including the proper sharp logo on the United shirt. Pm if anyone wants the details

    I use the free delivery, which is tracked by Parcel Force UK. Dunno if thats an arm of Royal Mail.

    No custom charges this time, but have had them in the past. They are applied once it hits the UK and once its paid they are usually released.

    Off to collect from Parcel Motel now.

    Got 96 97 Milan shirt, current Mexico away and the new Utd Zebra kit.... dont judge. As well as United kits for the kiddies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,509 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Finally my three jerseys landed in the UK....and they cant deliver to PM for some reason:

    Date Time Location Tracking event
    6/10/2020 19:54 International Hub Address problem (insufficient address)
    6/10/2020 19:54 International Hub Arrived in the UK

    Anyone experience this before? Know what I can do to help move this on?

    I have parcel being sent to my parcel motel address in the UK, it says on parcel force that it was delivered today at 10 to 10....

    I wonder does that mean it's been sent to Parcel motel as I haven't received a check in from Parcel motel...any help or advice would be appreciated....

    You should get a check in text later tonight or tomorrow.
    I'd say there's a couple of hundred parcels waiting to be scanned in

    Its just been delivered up the north.

    It will update usually within 12 hours to say its in transit to your PM box

    Thanks for the reply, exactly what happened


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,359 ✭✭✭henke


    Looks like my order has been delivered to PM today still awaiting a notification from them but should have in the next day or two. I ordered on 18th September and have attached the timeframe for my delivery. I seem to have avoided customs but I didn't have a big order just a track top and jersey. I am thinking smaller orders or split packages stand a better chance of dodging customs. I think that may be the best way to get through.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,359 ✭✭✭henke

    Ordered from Sandy on Sept 24 and arrived on Thurs, Oct 8. Thro PM and no trouble. Delighted


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,509 ✭✭✭Damo 2k9


    Got onto Parcel Force about what I can do about the unreadable address. They said only the sender can sort out and change address

    Got onto Sandy and she has contacted the shipping partner she uses, and will let me know any updates


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 877 ✭✭✭jk23


    Does anyone know where I can get the reference number online from parcelforce or do I have to ring them?...

    You have to ring. Its usually fairly straightforward.

    You can email them but its quicker to ring. Could be days before they reply via email

    Sound, thanks for that, I never got a letter from them as I am using the parcel motel address, they have been holding it since September 24th so hopefully they won't return it back to Sandy?
