Disadvantages: Irregular pricing, Inflexible customer care, Shocking prices

I tried TNT for the first time last year to move a PC system to a UK client, consisting of a PC, Monitor, Printer and Keyboard.
I got a bill for £90 and complained about its excess, explaining that other couriers normally charge about £25.
The curt reply was that I should pay or be chased through the courts. The contact did try to explain that because I hadn't specified the type of service required my consignment had defaulted to the most expensive.
Later in the year I exported a system to France which cost me less.
TNT do seem rather expensive, even as a default service, don't you think?
