Waiting for My Parcel

[ana07cutiepie]

It is very frustrating how things work here in the Philippines. So many bad guys around and the government is so crap and maybe that's one of the reason why there is no progress in this country- sad to say. Anyway my problem is, my future mother in law sent me some Christmas gifts through package they sent the parcel last November 28, 2011 and they said that the postman told them that it will arrive in Philippines on December 19, 2011 but until now there is no package. Am sad because they have sent me a Christmas tree on it and supposedly am gonna use it for the Christmas but then it's too late since it doesn't arrive at the right time. I am also thinking that maybe the post office here in Cebu took it. Well it's not new anymore that many packages are gone by the wind and some of it may not be gone but they opened it and took something which is obviously doesn't belong to them. So scary. :/

It took me 4 months to receive my new petrol lawn mower from the UK (BB box) and I still haven't got my Christmas boxes that were sent late August. The thing with BB boxes is that they are always late but they always arrive eventually!

did she use the royal mail ?? if so it can take 6 wks or more

I sent a parcel by Royal Mail to Samar and it took 4 weeks in March.
I also had a shirt delivered by post from Thailand to Cavite and it took about the same, in July.

In your case it will be slower cos of christmas delays.

yeah I was really sad because I wasn't able to use that Christmas tree it should have been the first Christmas that we will have a christmas tree- was really upset :/

Everyday I always wait outside the house hoping that parcel will be here but it seems like I am losing hope but because of you guys I am motivated to wait and think positively. Thank You So Much guys Happy new year too Marie

Hi Joebloggs, I don't know if they use Royal Mail but I will ask them.
The parcel is from Austria.

well it will not be by royal mail then, the thing is it might have gone by sea and not air

Unlike sloppy Royal Mail the Austrian Postal Service probably doesn't stoop so low as to employ thieving illegal immigrants
