    Courier: UK Mail

    Does anyone use UK Mail (ipostparcels) to post goods internationally, specifically the US? It is hard to compete with their £10.80 price for a small packet to the USA but my customers are finding it frustrating (and filling my inbox) that there is essentially no tracking. Every parcel gets...

    Transferring revenue to LTD company
