NFRC: Not sure if this will impact anyone here, but DHL (shipping) will cease domestic

shipping operations BEFORE YEAR END. Here at work, we were emailed to STOP shipping anything through them immediately to avoid potential service and quality issues. "DHL will cease all Domestic operations before year-end to focus on their International Express and Global Air services....

Just a thought in case anyone uses them for holiday shipping. Would hate to have packages not be delivered.

 
I know - I lost my great deal on shipping smileys/frown.gif

Fed Ex is taking ours over but I am not sure if they are going to offer us the same great deal of approximately 80% off like DHL did. But I really can't say much. Everytime I ordered from my own company and they shipped it DHL, it ALWAYS got screwed up and I nearly killed the DHL guy first of the year. By the time I was through with him, he did loose his contract but it wasn't just me, two or three other folks all complained within a few days and I was just the last straw. Of course, knowing that I worked for the shipper and was going back and filing a complaint with the heads did have a little bit to do with it. My package shipped from here went to Cincinnati then to Atlanta then back here before attempting delivery. We cancelled dinner plans knowing it was on the truck and I went out to pick something up. Got home and still no package. Called and was told he attempted delivery and we weren't home. I drove at the speed of sound/light or something to get to their terminal before it closed that Friday night and I went in ready to kill. Told DH that if I didn't make it before they closed I would park my car across the gate so no one could leave until I got my package. Luckily it didn't come to that.
