Re-look at customs charges for items bought from outside uk gift or no gift.
I am sick & tired of been ripped off on custom charges
Customs charges are out of date especially as we now have likes of ebay etc.
Custom Charges need to be scraped on postage which you can't ask the sender to post for free. Also gift charges need changing/scrapped right now no charge under £39
It's unfair we are charged customs on postage costs. Our relatives can only spend £39 as a gift or we get charged on our own presents if over! In the usa it's set at nearly £600 before charges as a gift, so can spend a good amount on my aunty in usa, why are we being ripped off in the uk?
I was told once customs apply because in usa items are cheaper, this is no longer the case. eg Shop Disney sell same items as ours prices converted are equal to ours! Things Needs to change ASAP!
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We understand you'd like changes to customs charges, but it's not clear from what you've written exactly what you'd like those changes to be.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
