Cannot get anybody to answer the phone. I live in Hyderabad and am desperately trying to get a package stuck at Mumbai Customs.Someone please help!

All you people who are saying that EMS status update is 'Handed over to Customs - Mumbai'. PLEASE FORGET ABOUT YOUR PARCEL, IT IS AS GOOD AS STOLEN BY THOSE PEOPLE. YOU WILL NEVER GET IT.
I was to get a package from China 2 months ago which is still stuck with those bstds at Mumbai. I live in Chennai. tonnes of calls, Numerous mails etc. nothing. I have forgotten about it as a bad experience and moved on.
The seller Mcbub.com is also a thief as they know that DHL/ FEDEX is safer and reliable for us, but for their internal cost cutting they sent it via EMS which is the same as dumping it in the Ocean, especially when it goes over to Mumbai Customs which is pretty much owned by Dawood Ibrahim.

I like to add here after long last, my package arrived at the local post office. Get ready for this...
I had to pay a customs duty of 10, 000 INR which is close to 250 USD ! That is literally double the cost of the damn tablet! which i could have used to buy an IPAD2

To add further insult to injury: The customs people had ripped open the package to "see" the contents inside and have damaged the tablet glass in the process. SO basically after paying close to 500 USD, i am left with an exotic tablet from Mcbub that may end up being a wall hanging.

Let this be a warning to all of you who order from Mcbub and who live in India.

Please if anyone can help me with the situation of things...i will indeed be grateful.

I sent a parcel from Australia on December 12 2011 and till date there is no information from anyone on what happened to it in India. Paying $50 is a waste. Better to use professional services like DHL/UPS/FEDEX. They give timely tracking of the consignments. If this continues then the business to SPEEDPOST will drop down and eventually the employees will be chucked out. Hope the employees of Indian Post understand the importance of timely services to the mass and improve their attitude. India cannot be a global player with such pathetic public services.

receiving parcel in India by EMS is tooooooo hard sometimes it takes a month or more then that also they charge extra tex, mess up almost stuffs, rarely steal some stuff, no resposibility about service. even if u ask about your parcel to India, they will tell u that tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, and next week...
Unfortunately no sending parcel to India by EMS is the best way...
absolutely wasting money, wasting time, wasting energy.
