We would like to provide pods, but we regret to advise you that it is not possible. We therefore must decline ALL responsibility for non-delivery or missing pods. In future, we will enter the following final status for all shipments to TUNISIA: "Onforwarded to contractor - pod will not be available".
Thank you for your understanding |
