Guest Owen Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 I want to have some young pigeons collected from Ferryhill, Co Durham and transported to Pontypool, South Wales. The people who are advertising either do not answer their phone or get back to me. To be honest I am getting frustrated with them. Can anyone advise me as to which Courier might do the job form me please?

Guest Owen Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 I think we're in a bad way as far as Couriers go. When I asked the question I expected to have a lot of positive replies. But sadly that was'nt to be. Everyone I have spoken to has told me a sad story of let downs and problems. At the time I, like a lot of others, used to get very upset with Amtrac. And often for very good reasons, but I got my birds back in fairly good time. Now it is a nightmare. In fact I will probably not want to buy anything further away than the Midlands in future. It's just not worth the worry or the hassle.

Guest Greenways Posted June 6, 2009 Report Posted June 6, 2009 Its alright saying book early and next weeks work but when your on the phone to a non-fancier and they have'nt a clue what to do with your bird(it could be injured) you go into panic mode. ??) ??)

My policy is to put stray birds as a priority especially if it is a none fancier , On Thursday i was contacted by a fancier in Newcastle and told that another courier had picked his birds up nearly a week ago and still hadnt been delivered (if they were ever) and would i pick them up and take them to bristol. within a couple of hours i had set off for the company and at 2am i was in the reception area of the other company. (The company is 24hr) When i asked for the pigeons i was told that there would be a £30 handling fee. i was also told by staff that the company was going bankrupt and would no longer be carrying pigeons (thats the reason the pigeon may have never got there) I havnt seen much about it on here so it carnt comment on the surity of it The company quotes that it has full holding pens (The birds were infact kept in a Dark room in tatty boxes) I paid the handling fee for the customer and set off on my way, the pigeon was delivered within the next couple of hours. If that isnt reasurance that the customer comes first, nothing will ever change people on heres views on couriers - Were not all the same.
