How Chris was arse fucked by Royal Mail, and the world

[chris-red]

Right had a slip through the door saying I owe customs £11.87, more precisely £3.87, and £8 royal mail for the privilledge of giving that £3.87 to customs. After many a time arguing with Royal Mail bird, then Royal Mail happy indian chappy on the phone I finally got an address and serveral apologies and I have to send off loads of proof that my items where t-shirts, and not valids for customs charges. I have to send stuff off to refund the customs charges then once thats back I can try to claim the handling charges from royal mail. So after months of fuckng about I might get £12 back, they know there is no way in hell, I am going to be bother to fuck about that much.

Anyway wind forward 2 seconds and I have opened my t shirts,

This was what ordered, what I got was a black t shirt with black print, so basically a black t shirt, I want to kill.

So I phoned them up and the yank bint on the phone tried to make out it was my fault, she said "well fallout grey is black", rant time

I should be getting a new one through the post in a few weeks.

"From 19 July 2007, excise duty is due on all excise goods (including tobacco and alcohol products) received via post from abroad, including occasional gifts and goods ordered online. This applies to goods sent from EU and non-EU countries."
