Not against the seller, as he may well have been dupted , but fastways know the score and are blantantly flouting the law.
Totally agree.

I sincerely hope the animals turn up totally fine however even if they do I feel its imperative to keep the parcel box and have the relevanyt body investigate.

They are telling people they can trasport reps when they blatantly cant!!

After a quick google this is the company that own the building Fastways use: Brimar - Contact Information perhaps someone there can help you get in touch with someone at the couriers?

Or going back to the Fastway contact page, see if you can find the details for James Headifen or Mark Rea in your local phone directory.

Heres the thing with fast ways,
If the seller had to use a white ticket to send your animal its not going to arive via fastways at all it will arrive via dhl tnt or such like.
They do deliver on a saturday yes but i doubt very very much your going to get them now
Call up the sellers and make sure they know its illigal to send via fast ways.

Thanks Faith, I have just contacted Marc at Dartfrog and he said that he has used them without any problems in the past and that he would just have to have people pick up from him from now on.

Id still be inclined to call the welfare in transport there are a fair few members on here that had a lot of trouble with them last year they cant be allowed to carry on.
Please keep the box and take photos of the labels etc.
