Courier Tracking

Hey everyone, I need some advice. I closed my Scotiabank account at the end of September because I had to move back to India. After that, I had a flight cancellation issue and Scotiabank issued a bank draft, but it was sent to my closed account. At that point I was already in India. The bank said they would ship the draft to India, but it ended up getting returned to them. After that, they sent the draft to my friend who still lives in Canada. By then, almost 2 months had already passed. Now I’m trying to get the draft sent to me in India. FedEx is very expensive, so I’m considering Canada Post, but I’m worried about the risk of loss or delays since it’s an original bank draft. At...

I’m sharing this for awareness so others don’t face the same issue. I placed a prepaid order for protein powder on GNC India’s official website on 2nd December. The courier tracking showed that the order never moved beyond the first warehouse. I contacted GNC India multiple times via email and phone. Each time, I was told that the order would be dispatched within 24–48 hours, but this never happened. Despite repeated follow-ups, there was no actual progress. Initially, they were also reluctant to cancel the order. Due to the lack of updates and resolution, I filed a complaint with the National Consumer Helpline (NCH), Department of Consumer Affairs, Government of India. After this...

Hi everyone, I’m planning a non-commercial import from China (Qingdao) to Ludhiana, Punjab, and I’m looking for advice from people who have actually gone through the import process into India (not courier shipments). This is not for resale — it’s a one-time / personal-use import, but the shipment is too large for courier, so it will move via sea freight. ⸻ High-level shipment details • Origin: Qingdao, China • Entry port: Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) • Final destination: Ludhiana (via ICD + road) • Incoterm: FOB • Mode: Sea freight • Volume: starting small, may go up to ~30 CBM • Import type: Non-commercial / personal use ⸻ What I’m trying to understand 1. F...

TLDR at the bottom. As many already pointed out by now, do not ever order from these scammers. I’m sharing my experience below: 👇 I ordered Acqua Di Gio Parfum from Culture Circle for around 5.5k (125 ml) on November 20. However, as soon as ordering, I was doubtful about the legitimacy of this site, so decided to search Reddit for any user reviews and found out a majority of them saying they received fake perfumes on this sub. In fact, the exact same perfume I ordered was also confirmed to be fake by another person who ordered it from them on this sub. So I immediately contacted them to cancel my order and refund me immediately. Contacted them on the same day of placing the order....

As a small business owner, how are sellers importing/selling BIS-mandatory electronics (mobile accessories, home appliances, camping gear like torches) without BIS/ISI certification? I want to import electronics for resale on Amazon/Flipkart, but BIS is required for many categories (e.g., flashlights under IS 2083:2024, LEDs, power banks). Without the BIS/ISI mark or Foreign Manufacturer Certification Scheme (FMCS), customs stops them at the border. BIS costs 50k-1.5L+ per model (testing, licensing, audits) way too high for small importers like me. Indian manufacturers charge 2-3x more than Alibaba/Chinese suppliers due to compliance and materials. Yet non-BIS products are everywhere onli...

I had a very disappointing experience with UPS Courier India. My shipment took **20 days** to get delivered. I understand that customs clearance can sometimes take time, so that delay was acceptable — but the real issue was the extremely **poor communication and tracking updates**. UPS didn't provide timely notifications during the customs process. I had to repeatedly check **ECCS** customs clearance website myself to know the status because UPS tracking wasn’t detailed nor regularly updated. After clearance, UPS handed the parcel over to **Freight & Dispatch Courier (FDC)**, and then FDC passed it to **Shree Maruti Courier**. Package handover to local courier wasn't ...

I'm an Indian living in India, and my friend from Thailand said she will be sending a Christmas gift for me. I want to send a return gift too, but I have a few doubts. I keep hearing about couriers getting stuck in customs, so I want to make sure. My plan is to buy a few fashion/clothing items, a musical instrument, a keychain, a book, and a few snacks, and ship it using DHL. My questions :- 1) I don't have a passport, but she has it. Will this be a problem? 2) How much import tax / VAT will be added? Is there any way I can pay this instead of her? 3) Will the process be long for her? What are the chances it will get stuck in customs? 4) Does she need to know what I am sendi...

I and my husband co-own a property. we stay outside India. Back in 2024 the original property paper was given to my husbands brother to finish a deal there, by giving power of attorney for just 1 plot out of total 3 plots. Deal was done , but we were unable to travel back to India due to my husbands health condition after a surgery and in the meantime some personal grudges caused a non-talking terms between the two brother. My husband tried communicating but they refused and told to come to India and settle the matters. Now we need the property paper back, but they refuse to communicate or attend our calls. Another relative intervened, and asked to return the papers back to us. But they star...
