Car TalkRe: Unending Delay: Please What Is The Issue With Grimaldi Line by Obarave: 5:09pm On May 15, 2020
We might as well expect Precious Ace to Berth on the 18th even though i have initially received this email as regards Hoegh Singapore (Twice) what makes this interesting is it is the first time for Precious Ace despite all the changes in date so i think it might just be right...not trusting them though. All we can do is be prayerful and hopeful.

Hoegh Singapore just arrived another port.
It was an error.....

Due to a recent internal system inconsistency, all vessels in our database reported port calls in port Lauffen. We are working on it to resolve it in full. We apologise for the inconvenience.

Update on Hoegh Singapore from my shipper

Dear Valued Customers


See below message from Grimaldi Lines:

We are fully aware of recent difficulties to timely discharge / release cargo in Lagos and we are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Due to pandemic and emergency period, several of our ships since end March have been obliged to observe 14 days quarantine outside Lagos before berthing. Despite these restrictions have now been waived by Nigerian Authorities, some ships have lost their priority in the queue and still waiting for free berth.

The overall picture has further deteriorated this week due to Nigerian Customs IT issues In the Port of Lagos with and consequent impossibility to resume with normal cargo releasing activity. Unfortunately all this, despite we are permanently in contact with local Authorities to boast the quickest return to standard, is totally beyond Grimaldi control and management .

This is affecting...

• HOEGH SIGNAPORE 0220 (HSI0220): as of today ETA = 05/25/2020

• PRECIOUS ACE 0120 (PRA0120): as of today ETA = 05/16/2020

• LAPIS ARROW 0420 (LAA0420): *** see below...

We wish to also advise that Grimaldi have worked incessantly and all disposal been taken to make sure that everything is back to standard in the shortest terms . On such basis we are very confident that within the next 2 weeks all vessels still waiting for free berth should be able to normally operate.

On the other hand we wish to advise that Grimaldi are obviously sympathizing with Nigerian receivers who in view of the lockdown imposed by Authorities to fight Covid-19 , have been struggling to get to the Port and get their cargo released. We are therefore glad to announce that extraordinary measures will be taken in account to assist receivers , waiving big portions of storage accrued etc . We will revert shortly with additional details.

LAPIS ARROW 0420 (LAA0420) ** Grimaldi has discharged all cargo in Cotonou and will advise vessel details that will load this cargo and ship to Lagos. We will send updates as we receive them.
Very correct. That is the same email i got from my shipper yesterday.

johnseno:
A week to the arrival of the vehicle in case if you have not gotten TIN number for the consignee name , but if you have registered before and is working ,no problem .You send me your document and the money three days to the vessel arrival.
Hi, is it not possible to use an agent even when a relative has been listed as the consignee? How does TIN come into play?
