I think UK Customs definitely take a special interest in packages from India. Over the years I've placed five orders from there, two of which were intercepted and LL's received instead@Lookingforhelp I've had no issues 'yet' ordering from India from the postal service, we are small Country with a large Indian population so its not unusual having incoming mail from India.
The ones that got through were from India, so I’m pretty sure the intercepted ones were also from there (I ordered via a 'broker' IOP in the US).@JaneDoe That really surprises me because I've never had an issue from India although, statistically I know I will get an LL eventually. Are you sure you aren't mixing up Pakistan with India?
Oh, I didn't realise you were in the US. In the UK India is a 'friendly' Country whereas Pakistan gets more attention due to some of the the ISI's connections with various groups that puts them on our customs radar.(I ordered via a 'broker' IOP in the US).
No, definitely UK based!Oh, I didn't realise you were in the US. In the UK India is a 'friendly' Country whereas Pakistan gets more attention due to some of the the ISI's connections with various groups that puts them on our customs radar.(I ordered via a 'broker' IOP in the US).
I imagine its not dissimilar to SY in the US which probably get less attention than they would if we ordered from the UK.
Yippee, us Brits are taking over PRNo, definitely UK based!![]()
You could charm our American brethren and use this one....Ta very much, I’ve learned lots already!
I need to get a flag avatar like yours![]()
Ungrateful? @Chancer ? Nah; you limeys just had a whiny king who got his “knickers” in a twist because we chose to toss a bit of tea in some harbor...
I did indeed know that King George (the III) was driven to the brink! It was George vs. George, and let the best George win!Ungrateful? @Chancer ? Nah; you limeys just had a whiny king who got his “knickers” in a twist because we chose to toss a bit of tea in some harbor...It was more than 'whiny', did you know that George Washington drove the King to the edge off sanity, literally? I do have a better meme an American friend made me at my request but I can't find it, its the American flag with 'British Made' across the top, its great fun for some 'cross the pond' banter on the 4th.
