Package late, Excuses, More Excuses, Still waiting ONE MONTH LATER

The name DHL Global Express seems to ensure efficiency and rapid transit for your global shipping. Well, not when it enters South Africa. The local team is useless, uninformed, one hand does not know what the other does. They insist on payments of duties that are not payable, submit good for clearance on incorrect commodity codes and simply cannot get ANY parcel out near the promised date. I have a parcel that is one month late now and nobody at DHL cares.

Dear DHL

Thank you for responding with two phone calls on Monday, both with an apology, indicating that the issue is resolved without further cost AND PROMISING THAT THE PACKAGE WILL BE DELIVERED TO ME ON WEDNESDAY, that is today.

Guess what, we followed up this morning to enquire about the expected delivery time.
The delivery will not be made today - maybe tomorrow, maybe Friday. More excuses...
