I will never use nor accept UPS shipping again. This customs brokerage scam they run is
well known, and has been documented. Even using my own brokerage firm has failed.
Despite full info on the brokerage existing in the shipping documentation, UPS insists on
telephone voice confirmation, or they charge for brokerage. A ridiculous amount.
Even after that, after voice confirmation, UPS _twice_ attempted to collect silly
brokerage fees from me. I refused, the agent left the packages here as I was about to
call UPS and bitch, and then the assholes actually sent the amounts to a collection
agency!
I explained to the CA that I had already paid the brokerage via another agent, and that
their client was committing criminal fraud; I then welcomed a lawsuit.
I have not heard a word since.
It may be that UPS is OK for domestic shipping, but their international service is a
serious scam.
And if UPS is listening: yes, you are criminals and scam artists. Come and get me if you
dare, truth is always a positive defense against libel and slander.
