International mail order to UK?

Resolved Question

International mail order to UK?

Could somebody recommend a reputable shipping company in UK - I want to order some goods from abroad but I need a third party to oversee the process. (the company do not ship direct to UK)Preferably a company that you have used. Thanks

Additional Details

Thank you Esther for answering my query. I managed to order the item through fityone which is a company the retailer uses for international mail order. Set me back £33.00 in shipping & duty. I also found two other companies internationalcheckout.com & myusa.com. Internationalcheckout.com's fees were more expensive. The other required an annual registration fee. Hope this info is useful to others. cheers!

I've used Bongo International for a couple of years now. They are not the only one out there but I have had a good experience with them. I registered for a lifetime US address on http://www.bongous.com.

I am in AU but they ship to over 220 countries including the UK and have really quick transit times.
What sets them apart in my mind is that you can order from multiple websites at a time and they consolidate everything for free. Saves you money on shipments by packing it smartly.
I would check out their website and if you have any additional questions, just use their live chat. They always answer inquiries in seconds.

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

It seems to me that without a license your business is not operating legally. There are many sorts of licenses and permits for businesses and not knowing your type of business it is hard to say. If you own a restaurant or bar and lose your license, you are out of business. If you forgot to renew your selling permit or sales tax number, you can keep operating while you get them renewed.

How hated are Bankers? Are the the new Traffic Wardens?

Resolved Question

How hated are Bankers? Are the the new Traffic Wardens?

Just had 2 letter 1 from Egg Credit and 1 from Virgin Money, both saying they will be increasing my APR to around 26%! they advertised typical APR of 18% since the Credit Crunch i have seen my credit limit decrease my repayments increase,
and they have pulled sly little tricks like on Virgin stopping Balance transfers without notifying me,

Im not reckless i always pay on time , the only reason im in debt is redundancy and poo employers not paying me on time,
are the bankers shafting the regular people or is it just me that thinks that?

sorry for bad grammer lol

I agree wholeheartedly - bankers have shafted us twice, make profit and line their own pockets instead of repaying us - the taxpayers that bailed them out. They have overtaken Estate Agents of the 80's for me, who played homebuyers off against each other with gazumping, we were caught in the middle paying for their clapped out porsches. Credit Unions are the way forward.

  • Lol I agree it sucks but they control the rates, money makes money as they say. I should compare the market to see if you can get a better deal this is good time to pick some good deals

  • we should find an alternative to banking so if they collapse we will not be angry. They have a useless system boring they beg you for help when you don't need them and when you ask for help they just don't care.
  • When I accidentally tread in something a dog left on the pavement, these days I tend to say 'Oh dear, I've just stepped on a banker!'

  • To forget to go through a particular step in the mint is one thing but to completely replace a word is unlikely they would have to change the machine at some great expense my guess is that's how it was then.
