I can tell you it was not easy to get a person on the phone, he went through a lot of recordings before he made it to someone live!!

Thanks for the info. Even though I mailed off end of Nov I know they still have a lot of packages going that way. So I guess we will have to wait. I found a web site http://www.customs.gov.ng/ but I don't know if we should call like your husband did or juss wait.

We were waiting on a package from China, same thing 7 days in customs, when my husband finally got a customs agent on the phone(I was amazed!! He is persistant ) the agent told him that things are taking longer to clear because they have a high volume, due to the holidays, there are alot of packages. Good news is, once it was released we got it the next day.

well after all this time the package still has not been deliv. it has been in naija for about 60dys as of this week. when i called USPS they say they are going to have me fill out a claims form as they look at it as a lost packg. I'm not happy at all!!! They did an investigation and Naija did not reply back. they give them 23buss days (so they still have until feb 3 to reply but i doubt that they will). but USPS said to call them in 24 days of the start of the investigation and thats when they said they think its lost. As last scan from dec 1 08 says customs.

Then on top of that my papa soon to be father in law gets in a bad accident and he will be in the hosptl a VERY long time. I'm NOT happy with the care he is receiving!!! The type of accident he was in we are shocked and but VERY happy it did not take his life! I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER mail USPS again!

Well I dont know as my fiance went to customs/post office today and he said they were not nice and not willing to help at all. He has the tracking number & I emailed him when I first sent it out, the scans from USPS for the pkg. It has been 70days since I mailed it on Nov 24th & 63 days in Naija! I have had it with them. I told my SO it takes the joy out of sending something. Plus I did not add a month ago I sent him another package. lol I have not even looked for that to be deliv anytime soon! Why hold it? That is what makes me angry. Like I told my SO if they want to charge a duty fine tell us the price and we will pay juss get the pkg in his hands! We dont care.. I have the mind that they are not going to hand the pkg over.. I don't know

My papa is getting better but I worry about him and have shed many tears for him. He was hit by a car! But I ring his phone often and send him lots of messages to let him & mama know I'm always thinking of them! I encourage my SO as much as I can b/c he took papas accident very hard! We all did! But lots of family from the village have come to offer support! I spoke to one of my uncles the other day That was nice! Thanks again!

Thanks for your kind words! Well after 80days in Naija he finally got the package. He had to pay for it but nothing we can do about that now. He said dust was on the package. lol So package number one down. Then last sunday he received package # 2!! That took about 1 month 2 weeks for him to receive but he did not have to pay anything for the 2nd package. I included a 90min tape (in the 2nd pkg) with me talking to him. He sent me a text then he called me and said baby I'm listening to the tape I cried and laughed at the same time. In the first package I did not tell him but I had a letter for all the siblings 7 of them and our parents along with some other goodies they all loved! He has started using some of the meds already.. so I'm happy he has had use of the things already & wont have to spend $.

Now he is sending me something. This will be the first time I have received anything from him. Seems like my 2nd home is taking a long time to ship it out. He mailed out over a week ago. But I'll have to wait. He says he had something handmade for me, I'm so Excited!

I am glad your papa is feeling better!! All your prayers and love that you are sending is working

Well I received my package in only 12 days! He had a guy he knows of who has his own business make a medium hand made card for me. It was BEAUTIFUL!!! He wrote me a letter, had some other goodies in it but best of all.... He mailed my ring to me! I love it!!!!! Everyone else is in love with the ring as well. The ring had to be made as I wanted silver vs. gold. I know it was a great cost to him to ship my package. I did not ask him to send it but he wanted to. My package of love is Priceless!

What is strange though.. There was a tracking number to the package. The scan always said it was leaving Naija. After a week the same scan. It made it seem it never left there. Then it was delievered to me in 12 days the scan still says the same. I was very happy to receive it so fast!
