hi folks, looking for some advice please. recommendations for parcel delivery from Scotland to Quesada, two large parcels, one 15kg and the other 25kgs. Parcels to go have a few different options but not sure who might be the best carrier. Your views are much appreciated. Thanks Audbro

Hi
We used parcelforce from Uk the Quesada. They were great. And it cost me £30. For. 30 kilos. It takes 3 working days. And you can drop of at parcelfoce. We also used. https://www.p4d.co.uk They offer a tracking service with GLS in Spain. But if you want them to contact you when they arrive you need a Spanish number. They wont phone a Uk number. Hope this helps :text-welcomewave:

We have read most of the replies on this subject as we too, have been experiencing severe delays or no deliveries at all from Correos - this changed for the worse about 2 years ago and hasn't improved since. I am considering going to see the Quesada English speaking counsellor at the old town hall to see if he can give us any guidance.

For example, we have subscribed to a weekly magazine in UK but published and distributed from Holland. Last week I had to go to Correos Quesada because the mag. ceased to appear since the end of June, and there they were, stacked up behind the serving area, with three other letters from local service suppliers which were overdue - 2 by 6 weeks.
There was no explanation or apology just a shrug of the shoulders.

We also have some small packages regularly sent from the Channel Islands, these had not materialled for a month, and we got a slip of paper in our box advising us that if we did not collect within 24 hours, these would be returned to the main Rojales P.O. (which in fact, they were, and we had to wait another 2 days for them to be transferred to Quesada again) -now we have them !!

Anyone who has had previous problems like this, or has any experience of why this is happening, we would be pleased to hear of what action you took to solve the problem.

Hi, we used DPD who are the same company as Suer.

All was fine till they got to Quesada and went to the wrong house twice so I’d recommend adding the plot number to the address too.
