i had 9 packages yesterday, 3 or 4 of them came in a document casing form ( seemed very small) those weren’t opened ( thought they were documents where they weren’t )

noticeably, one of the package written on it HANDLE WITH CARE IN BOLD FOND looked like been used as a football by customs employees..

I think they are robbing us in broad day light! and I am definitely going to join DHL! I have been using Aramex for about 7 years and i order online through them on a monthly bases but this increase in shipping charges and now handling and custom tax is ridicules! and they have lost me as a customer till they fix their charges and their delivery timing! I received 5 packages yesterday from Aramex and here are the details:
first package KD3 (0.5lb)
second KD1.7142 (0.4lb)
third KD1.2857 (0.3lb)
fourth KD19.3389 (8.15lb)
fifth KD4.6271 (1.95lb)
