The Post Office is full of crows

Reported on January 30, 2011 from Mumbai , Maharashtra  ι Report #28699

I was enforced into paying bribe at the MFPO for receiving my item. The MFPO held my shipment for more than 10 days in customs. The shipment consisted of a computer part and they didn't even notify me about that. I had to call them and then only got to knew about that thing. I was hoping they would ship the item within a few days but that was not the matter. I then had to go to the customs for clearing the item and there they won't give me the item until i had to pay them an extra. Note that i did pay the duty invoice cost of the shipment according to the rules but they just won't release my item. Almost all the people there seemed as if they wanted me to pay them an extra. Even the peons who packaged the item were begging.
