Nope. FedEx is the one if you really want it done! Never let me down yet. DHL has closed down offices in the western US.

DHL has ceased Domestic US shipping but will pick-up your packages for international shipping at no extra charge.

Of course living 40 minutes from O'Hare Airport means that their regional hub is at my doorstep.

Well, glad DHL works for you, but I am sticking with FedEx!

I tried to use FedEx to send docs to my fiancee in Negros Occidental, but they wouldn't deliver to her city (at least that is what the desk drone claimed). DHL at least subcontracted the delivery to her city to a local courier (and it got there in 5 total days).

FedEx has nicer shipping boxes though.

I sent docs to my girl in Negros Occidental 2 weeks ago with FedEx. Got there in 5 days. Perfect. :whistle:

I shipped a TV and some goodies at a value of 290 dollars VIA UPS and payed a fortune to ship it. Customs are charging a whopping 5,191 pesos for the package to be released. How can they justify this? Their customs fee is 15% of the item. That means they deemed the package to be worth over a thousan dollars. I outta be disputing this with UPS. I payed extra for guarenteed-money back service.

Everyone involved in the shipping business in the PH are crooks. No question about it.

I couldnt agree with you more. Being that the Philippines is a poor country is no excuse for the shipping companies and the customs people to rip off anyone with the outrageous charges for any services. Most Filipinos I have met over the years are very sweet and honest, but the Buisness owners attending to tourists and visitors are very bad at taking advantage with way overpriced services, like loansharks they are. They make the common good hearted filipinos look bad.
