Post-Lockdown Fasttech GB

[klipdrifter]

Okay, so the parcel is stuck at customs, because Fasttech labelled it as "components" and never attached an itemized invoice.
DHL will send me a blank email and I need to attach the itemized invoice for it to be cleared, or submitted for clearance.

Bloody Fasttech and their stupidity... Thanks man

 

[CJB85]

Just for the record, this is after I specifically requested that Fasttech include an invoice, specifically for customs purposes.

Thank you, good sir.
He was 93 and had been struggling for a number of years (he went practically blind and deaf), with dementia setting in over the last 3 years.
They confirmed Alzheimers when he went to hospital and his throat had essentially calcified, so he would never have been able to eat again. He was an NG Kerk Dominees by trade and had been saying for the last decade that he is waiting for God to fetch him, but God seems to have bigger problems to deal with, so he will keep waiting.
I am glad that his suffering ended peacefully, but it still sucks, I am 35 and he is the first grandparent I have lost.

My deepest condolences brother, if in any way we can help, please shout.

 

[LeislB]

I'm so sorry Johan, as already stated, please take your time.

 

[CJB85]

Alright everyone, DHL is officially pissing me off.
I followed up on the invoices I sent yesterday and they still haven't submitted them.
I have resent them to a new lady, as she said all they need from me are the invoices.

I will update as soon as I get any feedback.

 

[CJB85]

Okay, invoices were submitted by DHL and they expect clearance to happen before the end of today (so I assume delivery by Monday, I hope). The clowns over at Fasttech apparently did attach an invoice, but it was in CHINESE!!!!!

Jeez, one would think a international company like them will automatically do everything in English... lol

I get the feeling that Fasttech are like inexperienced waiters who have started spinning when a restaurant suddenly got busy. I think this whole Covid thing has ramped up the online shopping, but the logistics can't keep up with the demand.

but it was in CHINESE

And our customs do not read Chinese? Now I wonder why not?

Thanks for the updates @CJB85 . Really appreciated

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the public servants were still on the picture book phase.

It’s cheaper than on Fasttech too...

 

[Quintusson]

Is it worth it? Don't know it, hence asking.

 

[SivenZN]

In - Durban

 

[LeislB]

Wow, way cheaper than I expected!

 

[KobusMTL]

Fasttech list prise is 39.99 usd... But there where running a promo for 29.95 usd. Only thing they don't have stock.
So it's about the same price

Thank you very much Johan and on the other hand just chatted to PayPal and I won the case they will refund my whole purchase from 3Fvape

You are lucky. In a previous gb we were slapped with a hefty fine due to invoices not corresponding with 3fvape. In the end they admited to tax fraud being a common practice by falsifying invoices. But we still had to pay.

Nope, nope, u owe me nothing bud

 

[CJB85]

I have no doubt that we will see some Vape Mail on Monday morning! Tracking app shows that the parcel is at the DHL Pretoria Facility.

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I want you

 

[Quintusson]

And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I want you

I'm taken, but thanks for the sentiment.
