Guest kman123 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 DHL usually wont pay it for you. You'll get a call from customs in most cases. If your tracking shows an exception or some other problem call DHL right away, otherwise dont be surprised if no one bothers to call you for 3 days. DHL really sucks sometimes! Thanks a lot for your reply. Wasn't sure why Google only asked for the money without vat. When I got delivery from DHL in the past they were ok, they paid for the tax and brought the package with the invoice, and if no one is there to pay/sign the package they ll leave the invoice and a note for u to rearrange a payment and delivery. I thought they are rather reliable from my past experience.. Thanks for ur reply also.I dnt have much experience with them but they recently dropped a slip in the door asking for me to organise a re-delivery of something or to come and collect it,bit their depot is in the middle of nowhere! Would prefer to have them drop it off at the nearest post office sorting centre (although obviously they're nothing to do with royal mail) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hinz Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) OK, this is now down the road at Heathrow ... exciting ... Very lucky, you might be the first to get one in the UK. Still waiting for mine to ship, even though i ordered it after a few hours after the announcement, very annoying :) Edited January 7, 2010 by hinz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest joners Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 The Telegraph online has highlighted the cost of purchase for a UK phone. "Consumers who do not want to wait for an official UK launch of Google’s new iPhone rival the Nexus One can order it, unlocked and sim-free online via google.com/phone, and pay $519 (£324) plus $29.65 (£18). Import taxes would come to approximately £60, too, so the total cost would be around £400, subject to fluctuations in the US to UK exchange rate. " It matches up with what people seem to be saying, so thats good! Source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/goog...an-get-one.html Id be interested to see who gets theirs first and what they pay in taxes etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jkay1 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 I just recieved mines about an hour ago, ordered on release day. And i must say, this thing is very fast. and the build quality and screen are just amazing. The speech recognition works very well aswell. Dont know how much tax i will be paying, as dhl always send the bill a few weeks after recieving the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Iggy82 Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 (edited) I ordered mine yesterday at 19:02! Still waiting for mine to change from Not yet shipped I even phoned my credit card company in case they'd tried to call me due to fraud protection but they've confirmed that the payment has been approved and that its just Google not taking my money!! GRRR!! I'm on business all next week, it'll blatantly turn up while I'm away!! OK mine has finally shipped, now constantly checking the DHL status as it still hasn't left the Cincinnati Hub, wonder what the chances are of recieving it tomorrow!? The DHL website says that the International Express Delivery used is 'next business day delivery', that should be tomorrow!! Fingers crossed! Yey! Mine has shipped (not engraved) with UK power supply. 1/7/2010 1:45 am Processed at DHL Location. Cincinnati Hub, OH Looks like mine must be next to yours joners as my tracking status says exactly the same time!: 1/7/2010 1:45 am Processed at DHL Location.

I m surprised (and pleased) if that's the case, they usually hold up the item until the tax is all settled. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
