Destroyed wood frame and no money from insurance
I used Meest to ship a package from the US to Germany. It was insured since it was a personally precious larger photo frame, a gift from my wife. When it arrived in Germany even the sturdy wood frame was destroyed. No idea what force you need to do this. Then, Meest did not replace the package since my wife accepted it before we unpacked it. Never again. Terrible company. Last-mile carrier replied stating: In response to the complaint regarding the aforementioned parcel, we would like to apologize for the situation. We would like to inform you that investigations are currently underway. We would also like to kindly request that you send us the documents necessary to continue the case: • photos of the goods' protection inside the parcel. We would also like to inform you that, in accordance with Section XII, Section 6 of the Regulations: "If (...) the complaint does not meet the conditions specified above in Section 5, GLS Poland will request the complainant to supplement it (...)." Failure to supplement the complaint within 14 days of receiving the request in the above-mentioned scope will result in the complaint not being processed. Katreen from Meest answered: "Unfortunately, due to that the parcel was delivered on 26th of August and reported damaged on 15th of September, which passed the claim window". - I was 3 weeks in Europe and the parcel went through Poland and they only spoke Polish. As soon I returned, I wrote an email. For me, never again since when the package is out of the USA, you are alone.
