Wrong waybill & invoice - can you not read and think critically?

<p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Parcel sent from UK from my sister. <br />A birthday present for my mother. Cost £135 in total and she paid £80 duty on it in England. <br />3 days later it has arrived. <br />Michelle Calitz firstly says the package cost £480.,..and payable duty is close to R7000!! <br />Huh? That's not our packaeg. So I send her the invoice & waybill from sender - she has the wrong invoice.<br />I send it to her again - she sent me the wrong invoice, wrong waybill and she the wrong package. </p> <p>The package she wants me to pay duty on is for someone in India. I'm not in india - and you can clearly see on the invoice that DHL has the wrong person. <br />The waybill numbers don't even match up. <br />Can Michelle not open her eyes and LOOK, READ, COUNT - and REASON???? </p> <p>I've been on the phone all day - and she keeps telling me to make payment. <br />Payment for what? I've asked for a receipt & terms & conditions that stipulate how much duty (if any) is payable on the 3 dresses my sister sent fo rmy Mom. </p> <p>I'm getting very frustrated and irritable!!<br />Michelle is asking me for importation numbers, commercial / business details - but this is a person package contaiing a birthday present???? ARE WE NOW IMPORTING 3 DRESSES?????????</p> <p>Can someone please sort this out!! She clearly has the wrong details and trying to me me pay for it. <br />SORT IT OUT ASAP!! I can't believe DHL is so imcompetent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p> <p> </p> <p>PROVE ME WRONG</p>

Reviewer Update

Dear Nicole

FIrstly, I would like to extend warm wishes to you and your team for a fantastic 2017 ahead.

Secondly, I would like to thank you for the way in which you handled my complaint last year. I was not very happy until you stepped in and explained everything to me.

You really turned my frown upside down with the package debarcle last year - and I would like to commend you on excellent customer service.

Through your consistent communication you were able to relay m y fears and abet my frustrations. I really thank you!!

And lo and behold - I got a present from you guys before Christmas- a signed letter of apology. I truly wasn't expecting that, on top of a really nice card-holder & diary! DHL definitely turned my frown upside down!!

Should my family and I ever courier anything again, we'll definitely return to DHL as you guys are stil much better than your competition.

Thanks Nicole!! YOu roc****
