Can you leave feedback for said Shipley twat or contact Shipley about his business methods?

He has been reported and shiply have credited me the deposit. Shiply are the biggest money grabbing cunts in the world though as their cut is 320 quid out of a 1270 job

They seem to just be a modern take on the old-school transport "clearing house" where back-loads were submitted for hauliers to pick up and the bloke in the office with two phones got a cut on each job.

The weight is 890kg and at the moment it looks like I am going down in my mates 7.5 ton truck if anyone has anything that needs transporting between Essex and Toulouse let us know. I am hunting through Leboncoin to try and find some other shit to bring back, but it might end up being a spaz chariot at this rate.
That’d fit in the back of my L3H2 Renault master with appropriate planks.


Less annoying tag line.
Just when I thought I was out they dragged me back in.

Well the car was collected on Wednesday and I got stung for 210 euro storage due to the first shiply wanker who has now had negative feedback. (not that it will get my 210 euro back). The new shiply transporter seems to be taking my car on a bit of a holiday apparently it has been dragged around France and is now having a weekend in Germany. They aren't allowed to drive trucks there over the weekend so it will be in the UK hopefully on Monday and delivered to me on Tuesday. I should of gone and got it myself really as it would of been quicker and cheaper but it's done now. I just hope there is no extra damage on the car as it has been in storage for years with at least one window down so I expect it will of been soaked at least once on this little jolly.

For reference if you travel eurotunnel you can just claim you were in germany and you didn't stop in France then you wouldn't have to quarantine.

Also the policing of quarantine is that 25% of people who should be quarantining may get a call or text to check they are doing it.

Not suggesting that anyone break the rules of course but your only realistic chance of any issues if you go to France and don't quarantine is if your neighbours know where you've been and grass you up.
