I can see lots and lots of claims for non-delivered parcels that AP will try to weasel out of, followed by lots of complaints to the PIO, followed by representations to the Government (the owners of AP), followed by the Government (hopefully) requiring their wholly owned subsidiary actually providing the service they (over)charge for. Admittedly after a concerted campaign in the media (if they're interested, but one should conceivably be able to find ONE).

If I ever have one go missing I will certainly go for the throat if I don't get satisfaction. As far as I'm concerned, when I contract AP to provide a service they, at least implicitly, are required to provide that service.
