Recently, I visited a DHL representative at Skymart, located at 1816 West Broadway, Vancouver, BC…read more After waiting 15 minutes for her to finish a phone call, I asked about the cost of sending four PR cards to an Asian destination. She initially quoted $256, but after I hesitated, she recalculated and offered a discounted price of $192 due to her employee discount. However, she didn't mention that taxes would be added, which brought the total to around $218. I then inquired whether FedEx or Purolator might offer a better rate. She told me that Purolator doesn't deliver to that country and that FedEx is unreliable, with a price likely similar to DHL's. Despite my reservations about the questionable service, I decided to proceed with DHL. Later, out of curiosity, I visited another DHL location 11 blocks west at 2900 Broadway, where they quoted me $120 for the same shipment. I was shocked by the significant price difference. I returned to the original store to request a refund, but the representative told me their policy does not allow returns. Even though my items were still on her desk (despite her efforts to hide them), she refused to return them, citing store policy. She also claimed to have sent me a tracking number, which was not true--I received the tracking number only about 20 minutes later. I am perplexed by the large discrepancy in pricing for the same service from the same company. I contacted DHL to address this issue, and this is the response I received: "Based on the response received from our retail management team, we would like to inform you that the cost structure for our services is established through confidential agreements with our retail partners and DHL. Unfortunately, we are unable to disclose specific details regarding this arrangement. The rates may vary between the DHL website, retail partner locations, and DHL-owned service centers. Rest assured, we have shared your feedback with our retail partner and have emphasized the importance of staff training and maintaining the highest level of professionalism to prevent similar issues from occurring in the future. Your concerns have been taken into consideration, and we will ensure that Skymart adheres to the necessary regulations. We deeply regret any inconvenience or frustration caused by this recent service lapse, and we are committed to learning from this experience to enhance the quality of our service in the future. As all your concerns have been addressed with the relevant departments, we will be closing the complaint at our end with no further follow-ups. Please consider this matter resolved from our perspective. Once again, I apologize for any delays or inconveniences you may have encountered during the handling of your shipment. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we appreciate your understanding. If you have any further questions or require any additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly. I am here to assist you. Thank you for your patience and cooperation throughout this process." I was shocked by this response and will definitely avoid doing business with DHL or Skymart in the future. I might expect this kind of business practice in countries I associate with corruption, but not here in Canada.

He didn't leave his vehicle or anything. I thought he must be busy or something so I decided to wait for him to ring my door bell. Guess what, he drove away and an hour later I get a message saying tempted delivery and "Customer Not Available or Business Closed Recommended action: Delivery will be re-attempted the next business day" WTF. I was really upset. I called FedEx right away. I told her to add a note and she promised that it won't happen again. So Amazon worker are able to find the house. Canada Post is able to find the house. UPS is able to find the house. DHL is able to find the house. But not FedEx. Wow! and he parked right in front too. Sounds like FedEx employee just drives around not trying to deliver any package. So incompetent. DO NOT SHIP WITH FedEx.

Worst delivery carrier in canada hands down . Zero accountability. Zero customer service…read more I used them to get a delivery done for a TV. Making it a high value item. It was told it would be delivered on Tuesday but here i am told the package is delayed cause I'm not home . Its Friday now and iv been home for 4 days straight waiting for them to call the buzzer. Each day they dont bother coming up to the buzzer or call. Instead everyday they tell me the driver rang the buzzer thou we have a camera as well as a log of who buzzes us at home . What kind of delivery service are they even running here in canada . Should be ashamed when they charge so much and dont even want to make an effort to rectify the situation . The worst and stay away . I would give them a zero if i could .

The two hired movers arrived at 8:35AM (5 mins late but not a big deal to me) and my studio apartment move into a one bedroom was completed in a timely fashion. The two movers were professional and I would hire them again and recommend Home Run Movers to friends and family. A nice little bonus was that they collaborate with BungoBox so I got 10% off my BungoBox rentals. They took apart my bed and put it back together.. they also wrapped all fragile items and my shelf which is prone to getting scratched. Highly highly recommend this moving company!

The second time was a nightmare, with them showing up with a 3.5 ton truck instead of a 5 ton truck, as was clearly communicated beforehand. Since we had to make a ferry reservation, it made everything morse stressful than necessary, with us having to deal with literally last minute solutions for left over stuff, turning over the old place to our landlady, loading remaining items in our own car, and helping the movers on top of it as some furniture had to be dissembled to fit in the truck. Although Ty brought anything they could not bring the first time, a couple of days later, there were too many damaged items due to the puzzle of trying to get everything into the small truck. Most damages were just labelled as 'can be easily replaced by going to the dollar store, or having a table top refinished locally, etc.' But Ty never followed up on it, instead mentioned that we had not bought the proper insurance (which was never offered in the first place). He gave us $500 off, but that does not make good for all the trouble we had. and all the damages, with some of them discovered after the move. The damages were: a broken high quality fan, a completely scratched dining table top, damaged artwork, two damaged standing lamps, one damaged storage unit, a broken antique pendant light, and almost all furniture with some new scratches, dents, and other minor damages, including damages from the tape that was not properly used. Having said this, the movers were friendly, and Ty is a nice person; but this was not handled as expected and with the care needed, also with never following up on him promising us the needed repairs. Even if only some small plastic parts (e.g., a wheel part, a fastening ring) are broken, it does not mean they can be easily replaced at the dollar store. If we had to repair and replace everything, it would easily exceed the $500 offered. I have moved over 20 times in my whole life, but this was by far the worst experience ever. I can only hope that they will handle your next move better.

Prepaid label with overnight shipping ready to be dropped off. The young staff lady at the counter accepted it and I was out in 2 minutes. She was already in the middle of helping another customer filling out paperwork for his packages but helped me out as well. She immediately offered a receipt to confirm my parcel was shipped out at the time. Fortunately, my parcel was safely delivered to Fedex on time since I made it before their 3pm pick up time. The day after my Fedex overnight delivery parcel was sent, I checked the tracking status online and it was already in Ontario. As a frequent skytrain transit user, I like the location since it is conveniently located a block away from Oakridge-41st skytrain station. I will definitely come back if I ever have a Fedex package that needs to be dropped off. Really have nothing bad to say about this place. 5 stars.

They are definitely worth the drive here.
