Greyhound will not get my business any more. Aquapin also sent me rocks through Greyhound in the summer time. They lost the package, tote was destroyed. They then denied having shipped it express, Try putting a claim in... It's like trying to get free health care in the states. I have tried calling all types of places to get to the bottom of my claim no one has heard or seen it. Unbelievable non-customer service. I would love to meet the SOB in charge of the courier division I would have some choice words and recommendations for that company.

OK, Now I feel better...lol

Haven't dealt with greyhound for yrs due to shipping issues sent a package to Red Deer and for some unknown reason it ended up in St Johns NFLD and took 3 weeks for the package to find its way from there back to Red Deer and yes zero help from Customer service online or in person.

I personally deal with Purolater never had an issue with them yet.

The last batch of frags Russell sent me in spring, it ended up being 3 days before I finally received it after a supposed 6 hour day trip. Fortunately, ever frag was fine even though some water surrounding the frags was cold. So, take some hope in that the frags may still be fine.

Well apparently they made it there finally. Cold water is all I know at this point. No more fragging and shipping for me anymore. Not worth the stress.

Yes its pretty stressful. I've generally done well with Greyhound and even most of the late packages have still arrived alive. I probably have about a 90% success rate. FYI at this time of the year you can buy 20 hour heat packs at Princess Auto.

Yup they're dead. Thanks for the info Russel but nope i'm done shipping.
