I've used them many times - rates good and all documentation is done online.

Funny kinda company! even though they deny it, theyre owned by DHL (now) but they seem to push HDNL, which according to their drivers are now owned by DHL as well
they're pushing £5.99+vat HDNL deliveries at the mo and ive sent a heavy parcel, in fact it was a box of mugs back to BMS (I made a boo boo on an order). Again funny, if you choose DHL to send to Scotland, the Higlands or Northern Ireland, they wont do it and try to charge you around £16.00 for a 2kilo 24x36" package (I send canvas art), but...and heres the trick, when you come to the last but one stage of the order pages, you "add another delivery" to the itinery and hey presto they'll now take your parcel
Theyre good for UK deliveries but a total rip off for anything leaving these sun struck isles!
I went to send a canvas print rolled up in a cardboard tube to australia and they wanted £35.00 for it, Fedex was the cheapest, I called my local postie and he got the price as..............£11.00 (or £14.00 signed for), bit of a difference there eh!for me theyre handy coz they import all of your ebay sales address, it saves so much time. But dont do the DHL "special" unless you have 10 items or more! it may be £4.99+fat but the £10 surcharge soon adds on.
