He should give him time as he begged for.

If he defaults, he can then use law enforcement agencies.

Every day the container spends, close to N40k is generated in demurrage. This morning, he has sent N300k in additional demurrage with more still coming. This is aside the N565k in demurrage that I have already paid. So tell me whether this person is not evil.

Send me evidence of payment of terminal charges is what I have been asking since Tuesday... its one story or the other.

oliverjiad:
Goodmorning every one.

I am oliverjaid, a clearing and forwarding agent. i am not a new face and i have been on Nairaland since 2013.
First i want to apoologise for my recent out bursts and ill mananered responses. it was unproffessional.

In business the customer is king, we hold all our dear clients in high regard and i want to tender an appology specifically to amdman.

Govt policies and shiping protocols have a major part to play in processing clearing of containers and cars in our various terminals. There are times when all systems will be in perfect sync and in 3-6 days the container or car is out, sadly there are times when they stay much longer.

Poor/timely comunication of sensitive documentation required for container processing is key.
I will not be passing the blame to anyone but my self. i should have ensured i had all the tools required to clear the container before giving out an expected time. I own up to my faults and mistakes and promise to make amends going forward.

Your monies are safe, and container is not lost. current protocols require that the container steps down at the port, if not it will be moved to a bonded warehousing facility sadly i cannot influence or speed up that process even if we are to pay extra for it. i know there is a lot of apprehension in certain quaters due to the nature of the transactions, but i can assure you that Mr amdman is an upright business man and your products are safely on nigerian soil.

Kindly bear with me, as i will sort this out and by next week you will all be driving in your freshly imported cars while we put this phase behind us.

once again my appologies to the house, i have learned from my mistakes and i will do better, and serve you better.


kind regards

oliverjaid

After Customs exit note is obtained, shipping and terminal charges are paid within 24hrs and container is out in 48hrs tops. You have obtained the Customs exit note since January 28. You did not pay shipping line charges until February 6. Till now, you have not paid terminal charges. I sent you additional money to pay demurrage since Tuesday and today is Friday and you have not done anything.

Now you are saying container will be out next week. Who will pay the demurrage charges from now till next week? What is going on?

How did I go wrong by choosing you?

This is the character of who am dealing with

This is email from Maersk asking me when the container will be picked.

They confirmed it arrived on January 4. So what are these lies your are spouting?

You did Customs examination since January 22 and 14 days later container has not been cleared despite receiving more than 100% of your quote?

Are you really trying to tick me off?

oliverjiad:
bros abeg spear me all this jare let him talk about the delay from the transfer to bonded terminal.when he gave bi.laden o 4th of January after vessel berthed on 27th and it's over 6 days of free period for.me to run step down or transfer

So I should blame myself for believing you? As at when I sent you the bill of laden on January 3, I told you it appears it has already landed. You promised in our voice communication and in this chat that you can deliver weekend of January 11. Today is February 7.

oliverjiad:
u keep giving urself praise were u not aware that we waited for about 3weeks for the container to be transferred,I'm I the terminal holding the container for transfer after making sure its should step down in was it already on transfer list

Baba know what ull say here bcus ure tagging me wrongly after u knew container is on transfer list and terminal operators delayed till almost a month is that my fault

Every statement you make is in preparation for the next lie. Does it take a whole week to make payment at the bank?

oliverjiad:
now that you're quoting me all are u all aware that currently all shipping company are having issue since the beginning of the year to get 7.5 vat rate to their service charge implemented by federal government

If I am at fault would I be able to get the customs exercise done from the day the container was positioned for examination that's after alot of back and forth to the shipping and terminal with complaining for the container to be transfer because all vehicle container are automatically on transfer after to bonded terminal and if u dont want it to be transferred u have to step the container down at second gate tincan that's with the bill of laden and it has to be done before the arrival of vessel,these delay occur due to late bill of laden giving to me by amdman,please kindly call out I'm the man to explain how we transact I want him to illustrate that

Oga, server is not down again... it is now VAT.

You got exit note on January 28. Up till this moment on February 6, you have not paid the terminal. Why? I have sent you more money than you need, but you are still giving stories because you are not at the port and you don’t know what’s going on there. Between Tuesday and now that I sent you additional money, you have not done anything.

The most painful part is that I took you into confidence and gave you a breakdown of how my transactions work and what my customer’s expectations are. Yet here we are. You are an enemy cloaked as a friend.

Today is February 6.

You were commissioned for this job on Jan 2, and the container arrived on January 3.

Your request for valuation was received on January 22 – clear 20days after you were commissioned

Customs examination was conducted since January 22

Customs payments have been concluded since January 28

Shipping Line fees were only paid today February 6 (after uncovering your lies), despite the fact that you have been issued invoices since January 6 and 17. You have no explanation for this as we already paid you over 90% of the agreed amount

Terminal charges have not been paid as at this moment despite the fact that you received their invoice since January 20

The terms of our agreement were:

Container will be cleared in 7 days – today is day 35. Your claim is that you were not able to step down the container for faster processing because you were commissioned late. However you never mentioned this at the time you were commissioned. You had all the facts and you said there would be no problem

No additional costs aside what was agreed because our business model does not give us room to ask our clients for more funds – Aside our agreed amount (N2.2m), we have paid an additional N565,325 and you are still saying there are more payments outstanding

Personal Attention to this transaction – Rather you sit in your armchair waiting for whoever to send you feedback in their own time, leading to your lies and delays

Your lie over the last 2weeks has been that the server at the shipping line is down. You were shocked when I uncovered that lie for you today with facts. Your lie is particularly heartless when you know that about N40,000 accrues as demurrage for everyday the container is still in the port. But you are not perturbed because you think you have the yam and the knife.

As at today, we have paid you a total of N2,585,325. Total payments you have made based on receipts provided is N1,511,022.50 leaving a balance N1,074,302.50 (yet you are requesting for more!). While we understand that a small portion of your expenses would be unreceipted, where is the rest of our money?

Oliverjaid… where is our container?

I must confess, amdman customer service Is very poor. One can easily have high BP after sending him money and him not replying to messages on WhatsApp for days.

It is not possible that we have collected money from you and you have not heard from us for DAYS!

1. We prioritize responses to those that we have already bound ourselves to by identifying the car and ACCEPTING payment. If you send us a message, you will receive feedback within 24hrs

2. When we have accepted payment, we buy, ship and send you tracking details, so you can tell how your shipment is progressing without needing to ask us

3. To find the best deal, we review hundreds of offers, drive long distances, conduct inspections and negotiations, finalize purchases, deliver vehicle to shipper, negotiate with clearing agents and conduct post-shipping activities; while all the time communicating with the buyer. All of these activities take time.

4. Our promise is to respond to all enquiries qualitatively within 24hrs. When we fail to do that, please bear with us... it is not because we do not value you. Rather, it is because we are deluged with requests and are working hard to get to your request.

5. As is normal with every serious online business, we receive and respond to hundreds of enquiries daily, including those that are saving to buy a car in 2022, looking for outrageous discounts or merely trying to benchmark prices in the market. An example is an individual we have sent 48 vehicle choices over the last 3weeks, and he is still asking for more options.

6. As we prefer to spend quality time with customers, there is only a finite number we can attend to daily, hence we do not run any adverts or list on any other social media platform for now. However, if we collect your money, you have our attention and it is not possible that we will ignore your message for DAYS!

Please Between the yaris and the matrix which is more fuel efficient?

Matrix shares same engine with Corolla, so fuel consumption should be similar with Yaris
