Blunderbust Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) Where did the extra £17000 come from as when it was dispatched it would have been dispatched at a set value?

bruno22rf Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 If the courier was DPD or Nightfreight im amazed that the container got there in one piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickS Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I am pleased things worked out ok for you - as they should have done since you did nothing wrong. Years ago, we used to ship high value items with accelerometers installed in the packaging. It was shocking what these showed at times - exceeding the standards for shock loading equipment on warships! Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun4860 Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 If the courier was DPD or Nightfreight im amazed that the container got there in one piece. See my previous post "As an addage when I did a bit of work for nightfrieght, I picked up a very large control panel, roughly 7 ft x 4ft by 1ft, I had it strapped securley inside the trailer, got back to the depot, backed on dock, was walking alongside it to enter the building when CRASH, I heard it topple and smash on the floor, When I got inside, 2 blokes were trying to pick it up, I said " good job it was you two that did that and not me", I never heard anything else about it."

mikky Posted September 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Interesting that's an area I want to try and get into cool stuff glad you are not being blamed how did they manage to knacker the drives in transit tho? the steel outer cases were bent and the handles smashed off and the drives had been ripped off the brackets ,it must have taken some force...if i had hit them with an iron bar for a couple of minutes the outcome would be similar mikky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheatingRabbit Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 its to rewrite all the software,all the harddrives were damaged cant retrieve the data,the kit is virtually obsolete,which means we have to get new hardware and software,its to run a command and control centre,apparently no one backed up the data Depends on the value of the data, but has your boss thought about using a professional drive disaster recovery company. Not cheap at all, but they may be able to save the important data! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
