SupraAyf Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Jay, did you get charged duty & import tax when your wheels arrived in the UK. My Veilside alloys arrived in the UK on Monday and it seems they are being held in the Customs Section until an import tax assessment is conducted.

johnny g Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 If it's with Parcelforce and being held for a while, you can reclaim the "clearance fee", I had an issue with Parcelforce and I've just done it by kicking up a shitstorm at their head office as have others. Ok, its only £8, but its my £8. What theyre doing is using that "fee" to cover administering the costs of paying HMRC the duty on the parcels. However, theyre breaking the law by applying it PRIOR to delivery, holding your package to ransom and thats not allowed in law. The fact that they do it off the bat without giving you the option of arranging another way to pay the VAT is all part of the scam. Allow them to send you the ransom demand then quote the law at them. They're not allowed to hold it and demand the fee, but they can deliver it and then ask for it. However, they can only pursue you through county court if you told them to get screwed AFAIK. According to section 104, 104, 83 and 84 of the Postal Services Act 2000: http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts2000/00026--h.htm It states there must be no intentional delay of your postal packet. HM C&E can obviously delay it to check contents and apply duty but after that the mail must be delivered promptly. Parcelforce are breaking criminal law in sections 83 and 84 which state: Interfering with the mail: postal operators (1) A person who is engaged in the business of a postal operator commits an offence if, contrary to his duty and without reasonable excuse, he— (a) intentionally delays or opens a postal packet in the course of its transmission by post, or (b) intentionally opens a mail-bag. They are also breaking criminal law under section 104 which states: Inviolability of mails (2) Anything to which this subsection applies shall have the same immunity from— (a) examination, or seizure or detention, under a relevant power conferred by virtue of this Act or any other enactment, (b) seizure under distress or in execution, © in Scotland, any diligence, and (d) retention by virtue of a lien, In law, a lien is a form of security granted over an item of property to secure the payment of a debt or performance of some other obligation. Claim it back, by emailing Lynn Gawthorpe ([email protected]) and making a stink about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
