I’ve just had a update on some fly tying stuff from Temu, with Evri I get updates on each stage of it’s journey after customs clearance, usually 2 to 3 days, this package is coming through Royal Mail and the update this morning was that it had cleared customs and will be delivered tomorrow between 11 and 3pm.
Royal Mail came as promised at just after 11am, here’s a picture of £20s wort of goodies, there’s another pack of brass dumbbell eyes somewhere.

I got through to Evri enquiries and it appears that they are returning the parcel back to Maxcatch, so for the time being I have given my tracking number to my brother as he sees Evri's driver on a regular basis.
 
Evri attempted one delivery in the end up, to the wrong house, then sat on it for over a week, before deciding to send back to the shop, randomly. Utterly useless. Shop are sending out replacements, yes you guessed it, by Evri.

I've set my Evri preferences to always deliver to local shop. They'll probably take it to the bowling club or swimming pool.
 
We took a Evri package in for our next door neighbour this morning after the delivery driver left it on the doorstep. If we hadn’t noticed it when we went out anyone could have had it.
 
They have a Chat app ( I know that's the wrong phrase )that does work.
Track your parcel Gives you more info than the other trackers. I can now see my parcel has arrived at Shanghai Pudong Airport - China, 16 days after the order was placed. 😨

Bit of a bummer as maxcatch goods used to arrived here in around 8 days.
 
I actually had a delivery from Evri yesterday, whilst taking the parcel from the courier he was making excuses of why he could not make his next delivery as it was too far, he would need to turn around, I really don't know how Evir have survived, obviously low standard of drivers/financial reward and too many deliveries expectations of them.
 
I placed my first order in three years from Maxcatch yesterday. Are deliveries still dispatched from China, or has Maxcatch set up a European hub? I'm just considering VAT and other duties, we get levied with a €6 charge plus 23% VAT on all deliveries from outside Europe to ROI.

I've stopped ordering anything from UK or USA since last year, it might be still worth it for Maxcatch low prices with the 20% discount. I'll have to wait and see what happens.
