Important
- Packlink will automatically charge additional fees using the same payment method you selected when you finalised your order.
- Packlink may charge a handling fee for all shipments with declared weight or measurements that are less than those audited by the contracted carrier (min £ 1). The surcharge (extra payment) will be 15% of the rate charged for weight or volume mismatch for amounts less than £ 20 and 20% for amounts over £ 20. This surcharge will apply in addition to any additional transportation charges that may be applicable. Example: you declare a weight of 5 kg, while the carrier detects 8 kg.
