    I have one for certain and possibly up to two more £2500 value packages being sent to Northern Ireland for an 8-10 week stay at the dangerous goods centre. 
    Long story short, silver being sent to and from Edinburgh Assay Office. 
    The packages got there all OK, no delays. 
    Coming back to me, they get pulled out by the Civil Aviation Authority and normally this would then go through the road network. 
    This did not happen. 
    What I have been told is that the sorting centre/CAA people check it once, if unsure they put it to one side to look at again. If they still cant work it out, off to Ireland it goes. 
    Their turnaround is 8-10 weeks to check these packages. 
    Totally c**p.

    Well, I hope not. 
    Lovely country, I have family ties in NI and love coming over but I really don't want to go over and sort this out.
    I just want common sense to prevail and people to do their job correctly.

    I honestly don't know. 
    I had another package similar dely, tracking said it went to Bristol mail centre. 
    When I quizzed my escallations lady about this she said it never actually went to Bristol, it was just a scan of a giant bag that had everything in it and then my parcel was put into a different bag to come to Southampton. 
    They don't know their arses from their elbows. 
    Also, "special" delivery - they have no idea where things are at any given time beyond it was checked in at a certain place and then checked out. 
    Whilst "in transit" their answer to everything is, we don't know where it is and have to wait for its next scan. 
    Total joke.

    Well, I have had communication from the escalations team that it has been sent to dangerous goods.
    So now it just goes in the black hole for 8-10 weeks.
    I can't even claim for the loss as it's not lost.
