Surely not ........

[paulc]

This made me laugh. I've been baiting a Ukrainian charity scammer and wanted to send him a shipment of laptops.
Obviously there is only one courier company I would trust to deliver to a warzone, but received this .......

I'm sorry, I can not accept a delivery from Plog Logistics, because my friend was once waiting to receive a parcel in the US from them, only to be told that the delivery has been diverted to Benin Republic. I'm sorry, I don't want to deal with them!

Did you remind him of the ̶f̶o̶u̶r̶ seven star customer satisfaction rating? Obviously the problem was with the sender, not the shipping company! I'm shocked, shocked I am, to hear of anyone besmirching our beloved delivery service. BLASPHEMY!!

[sparky905]

Very interesting......I would like to know who he dealt with and other details LOL I am sure PLOG would use this feedback to improve customer service.
Not to split hairs Kitty but I do think it is 5 Star Service, not 4. LOL

[paulc]

Just received this from him. I've already got a couple of bank accounts out of him. The £9,000 he refers to is from the church's fundraising, so along with the laptops its a nice package to lose. As Plog is definitely out, any thoughts on how I can prolong his agony?

I'm sorry, I can NOT accept a delivery from Plog Logistics! I have experienced a bad time through their poor service to my friend and I would not let that same time to happen to me!

I must commend you for your efforts in trying to help the poor with such amount of money, I'm thankful for that. But, it's better you look for another person who will accept to deal with Plog Logistics.
If it can't be DHL, UPS or FedEx, I'm sorry I can't work with you. If you can't go to them because of a high price, take the charge out of the £9,000+ and send the rest with the laptops.

That is funny! The lad we just sent to Togo lost out on about $9000, I wonder if it is him? Is it possible to ask what happened to him? I don't want to risk you asking too many questions about this and lose him, but it would be fascinating to know if this is the guy we just safaried and who continues to send nasty messages to the story's characters?

Just an innocent question if it fits in with your narrative....."I am surprised to hear it. I have had horror stories with DHL, but could you please tell me what happened to you with PLOG?"

[paulc]

He said it was early 2021.

[Kitty La Gore]

Not to split hairs Kitty but I do think it is 5 Star Service, not 4. LOL

Fixed it!

[sparky905]

If you can get any names of characters that would be great as I can't place it. Just afraid if you ask too many questions he will get suspicious of you. Unless it was the Cameroonian non safari safari which involved an orphanage and church.

[Kitty La Gore]

Hey, is it possible they're referring to this?

In 2021 the safari ban was in effect and there were no parcels being dealt with by Plog.

Too bad your customer is familiar with Plog's delivery rate (still at a rock solid 0%). Perhaps a delivery in person is called for? Perhaps at one of the most excellent 4E resorts?

He said it was early 2021.

Well, let's not forget that lads lie...

[paulc]

Ha ha, after telling him we would be looking for another charity to give our donation to, he changed his mind.

I understand what you mean and I'll just consider accepting Plog Logistics on the conditions:
I can not take any responsibility if anything happens to the shipment.
If they fails to deliver to the given address.
If this could require any biometric screening methods without having to meet the person in person.
I'll have to give you an address in the US where you'll deliver it to, and if there will be problem with that, let me know on time so I'll know what to do.
Most importantly, if there's any fee required in any way to get this done, I'm not going to pay that.

Hmm....this lad sure does seem to have solid understanding of Plog operational procedures... perhaps a returning customer?

[sparky905]

I remember a lad going berserk over biometrics, but the specifics escape me right now. I think he thought it was an attempt to get nude shots of him, though he was instructed to keep covered.
There can't be any fee associated with this since we know PLOG handles all details behind the scenes. You don't get a 5 star rating and a 100% customer satisfaction rate without doing the little things right.

I can't wait to watch the story unfold!!!

This shipping company seems to be developing a reputation.
