PostNL has held my parcel for 30 days with no scan. Is that normal for this route or should I start the process?
PostNL scans are generated at the hub, so a silent tracking page is not evidence of a problem for the first 30 days.
Photograph everything before you open it. It takes ten seconds and settles most disputes.
Happy to hear I am overthinking it.
Split the order.
Same here.
Fees like that are charged by the carrier, not the state, which is why they are hard to contest. Currently on Revolut myself.
What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it?
File early. Tolerance was my main issue with Revolut too.
Written confirmation email after every phone call. Cheapest insurance there is.
Same here.
Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first? Two months in on Revolut and it lines up.
Be careful reading one parcel as a rule. Two successes build a false model. Currently on Revolut myself.
