My company used TNT couriers - until I convinced them otherwise! Working in the medical devices industry, sometimes I have urgent packages for hospitals, and a reliable courier is essential. Constantly however, my packages were not delivered before 9am as was paid for. Eventually I started to complain to local office - their excuse was that the drivers could not load their vans in time! I live less than 10 miles from the local depot, so I went down one day at 8am and saw the drivers enjoying a cup of tea. The final straw was when I had no delivery (before 9am) and called the depot at 10.45am. I was told that the driver could not find my property (despite the fact they ...  Read the complete review

On the 16th June TNT arrived with a consignment of 4 large boxes, the driver simply dropped the boxes off the back of the truck, I struggled to move 3 of them but could not manage the fourth, I realized by then that this guy had a bit of an attitude but had to ask him to help me move the 4th box, he just looked at me as if I'd lost my mind, I was getting pretty annoyed so changed my tone and asked more forcefully that he assist me in moving all four boxes to the side of the house (about 12 feet), he did so begrudgingly and just dropped the boxes down quite hard, later when I examined the goods they were quite badly damaged and we had to get some pieces of the consignment ...  Read the complete review

TNT's roots are in Australia. In 1946, Ken Thomas started his own company - Thomas Nationwide Transport - with a fleet consisting of a single truck. In less than half a century, his company grew into a global enterprise, even operating its own fleet of aircraft. Much of the growth came from take-overs and interests acquired in other companies. Today TNT is a global courier services and part of a Dutch based group that employs 162,000 people in 63 countries but can actually serve over 200 countries through connections to local services. I have been using TNT on a daily basis for a number of months now as part of my job to send packages large and small ...  Read the complete review

I own several mail order companies all selling different products. Due to the nature of some of the goods I send I have to use a next day courier rather then using Royal mail special next day delivery (I wouldn't say theres a difference between the to. I send consignments weekly by TNT. I send out very light packages these usually consist of the product which weighs about 5 - 10 grams, this is packed in a polysterine box which weighs about 50g. Everytime I recieve an Invoice off TNT the weight is always down as 10 Kilos. This took me by suprise considering 28 grams is a Ounce and 36 ounces is a kilo, So therefore my package weighed 360 ounces!!! ...  Read the complete review
