Pathetic Service [UPS]

My package has been “laying in the warehouse” for nearly 9 days. When I called last Friday(29/08/2025), I was informed that there were outstanding clearance fees to be paid. To add insult to injury, the customs/taxes they are charging are more than the value of the items I purchased.

The first time they contacted me, I was told to send through a copy of my ID, which I did immediately. On the second call, I was told about the outstanding invoice. I requested that they send me the invoice so I could settle the account, but no invoice ever arrived.

What frustrates me more is that their customer service is appalling. One agent even told me to “read the email properly” when in fact the invoice was not attached. The arrogance and lack of accountability are shocking.

I did not choose UPS as the courier partner; this was forced on me through the company I purchased from. Rest assured, I will be taking this matter up with the seller directly and will no longer be purchasing from them if UPS is the delivery partner.

My gut tells me the parcel is not even in their warehouse, otherwise the invoice would have been sent by now. The service is dishonest, ***********, and completely unacceptable.

Verdict: Pathetic service. UPS has proven to be unreliable, unprofessional, and impossible to deal with.
