Problems with TNT postage?

[azza77]

As the title says, has anyone had any problems with TNT before or is it just me? Ive made 6 orders from different companies before and they all shipped with TNT. Out of the 6 orders, 4 of the orders had gone missing!! Generally i have to wait about 2 weeks before the insurance claim is settled meaning i never get my order till a month or more after due date.
Just of late last thursday i ordered some tyres from tempe and what do you know, declared lost in transit today! Is it just a run of bad luck or are these f*ckwits that completely incompetent that they have managed to loose a set of f*kn wheels! Honestly, how do you just 'loose' something as big as that. Yeah maybe a gift card, but f*kn wheels! f*ck me!
Anyway, made a complaint to fair trading bla bla, just wanted to know if anyone else has had any dramas.

TNT are **** IMO, we used to use them at work, an entire pallet of pet food went missing. Pallet was worth around $3000. So we ditched them.

I've never had a problem with TNT, only had to use them 3 or 4 times though

We use them at work pretty frequently. They've damaged, beyond repair, multiple 42" plasma TVs. Usually one a month or so, plus all the minor, small things that get broken and lost.

Blokes across the road from where i work have a recording studio, they have pallets of expensive recording equipment etc sent to them from interstate (each pallet worth around the $20k mark), so far, two of their pallets have suddenly "gone missing" at the depo AFTER they had arrived AT the depo.

This was about 8 months ago, they still haven't been recovered.

When I ordered my MacBook from the Apple online store a couple of years back, Apple shipped it via TNT. When it arrived on my doorstep it had a big hole punched through the outer carton. Thank **** Apple double-boxes their stuff - the inner box and the machine itself were fine....gave me a good shock though - I'd taken photos of the damage and was ready to give Apple a call telling them it'd been damaged in shipment.
