We sent invitation and air ticket - (docs to apply to SA Embassy for visa) from Cape Town, South Africa to Saratov, Russia with DHL. They delived it to Tarawa, Kiribati, and it is already two weeks late, the air ticket is not valid for the Embassy already. They didn't care when we told them, they try to persuade us that Kiribati is in Russia!!!
I spent 50 USD on phone call from Saratov to Cape Town office, they didn't apologise and did nothing, it is still in Tarawa Kiribati, more than that, they asked me to call to Tarawa myself!!! (More expenses and more and more, I lost money on air ticket already)

The most bad thing about DHL is that they tell you "don't worry, it is under control of our tracking deparment" and you lose your time, because you think they are telling truth, but then in couple of weeks, no, THEY LIED!!!

Liers and arrogant stupid staff on the phone !

I wish I could look into the eyes of that person who makes such mistakes (or see whatever system make them) and what is an IQ of south africans in DHL office ???????????? They claimed they really don't understand where The Russian Federation is.


YOu pay DHL twice more than any other courier service because you trust them, and do such TERRIBLE THINGS for you and talk rude to their customers, and their site doesn't register complaints !

You never know where is your stuff, they never know when it will be where you are .

I WANT FULL COMPENSATION FOR AIR TICKET, MY EXPENSES ON CALLING, SENDIGN SMSES, AND I GOT CERTIFICATE FROM A DOCTOR THAT I WASN'T FEELING WELL BECAUSE OF DHL.

Think very carefully do you want to have all those trouble or not, when you are going to send something important with DHL .
