This ended up a little more wordy than intended but hopefully it will help our EU customers and give a little insight into how NI micro businesses are dealing with Brexit

@BillMorris9 Weโre only a very small business Bill - so no employees in Republic. A few of our EU customers are getting hit with these charges when there should be none. Unfortunately. Hopefully it will improve ๐ค๐ป
@SaraONeillArt Either lies with rogue customs officers in receiving countries or Royal Mail perhaps arenโt separating GB mail from NI as theyโre meant too ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ there should be a special sticker of some sort imo! DHL Ireland & NI Parcels best bet for me. But prices restrictive for smaller orders
@SaraONeillArt Yeah was going not to bad altho not foolproof - til recently but had 4 in last month returned. Even put stickers saying itโs NI Parcel with NI EORI number. So frustrating that we canโt take full advantage of our position! Interested to hear if any other NI companies in same boat
@SaraONeillArt Iโm so surprised youโre getting no issues Sara - Iโve had to stop shipping to certain EU countries because some orders are getting returned saying incorrect customs documentation. Itโs a nightmare ๐ญ
We've held off as long as we could but the most recent Royal Mail price increases have meant we have had to bite the bullet and increase our flat rate postage costs. On the upside there is now FREE POSTAGE over ยฃ40!
Finished my first giraffe skirt ! Shown without a petticoat and with a white patent cinch belt from Banned to cover up my dodgy sewing on my elastic ๐ ๐ฆ
