I have hit a new personal best (or worst!) - I've got a couple of Subs from Trevor sitting in UK Customs since 8th June. Not good. Has anyone else had issues with EMS/UK customs recently?

Recently had a similar experience with EMS getting stuck, 14 days in customs and then turned up out of the blue un-opened. I am not sure what is going on but really random time delays.

I hope they arrive soon, best of luck

Unfortunately 14 days in customs is the norm due to Olympics & jubilee sit tight and it will get there

It's probably random but it does happen in the UK and certain countries, at least for rep clothes/shoes. Start at 4:10. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxuKqmyWE1Q"]vid[/ame].

Unless you get a customs letter, stay positive.

So he reckons his Nikes were seized as customs were taking a special interest in them as they're an Olympic sponsor?

Guess who the official timekeeper is :picard:

This is getting silly now - my package is still at Customs in Coventry. 14 days with no sign of being released. Backlog or not this is too long :cry:
