DDP shipping meet fraud UPS account, parcel is held by UPS.
Now DDP special line is very popular. it is economical & convenient.
While every year we could hear some big DDP co-loaders run away and leave the invoice unpaid. The customer can't pick the cargo.
Given the economic environment, sometimes the situation is inevitable.
Here is Zhiran's solution when facing the situation.
Customer: Da* Qu*
Job No: ZRS2405001
General situation:
The customer need sample consolidation and shipper service.
When sample is collected and shipped by Maston fast vessel. The UPS inform the customer that the account is fraud account, they can't deliver the product.
Solution:
Zhiran compensate for all the sample charges($1229).
How to avaid such situation?
1. If you are a regular importer and you have EORI, VAT number. We suggest you to use LCL DDU shipment other than DDP shipping if cargo is over 2CBM.
LCL DDU is standard import method. you could get all necessary document and less risk.
2. If you have to use DDP special line. choose the medium or reasonable price. if someone gives you an usually low price. take care of this.
Anyway Zhiran will remind you the risk before shipping. and will bear our responsibilty if there is any issue.
