List of postal services that will be performed by the postal services performer and the area where the postal services performer will perform postal services

BOX NOW will perform other postal services (as defined by the Act) namely postal services of reception, routing and transfer of postal items for the senders (legal entities and natural persons – consumers), as well as services of delivering postal items (packages) via access points - package machines in internal and international transport, whereby delivery of postal items (packages) is made to legal and/or natural persons (consumers). The list of package machines is published on the website www.boxnow.hr.

 

Method and conditions of performing postal services

BOX NOW can perform mentioned postal services with its own resources or via any licensed subcontractor.

In relation to the Traders, postal services will be performed in such a manner that the sender selects the size of the postal item he wants to send, fills in the information on the sender and recipient of the package and selects:

a)      delivery of postal item from a specific access point - a package machine to a specific access point - a package machine from which the recipient will take over the postal item, or

b)      delivery of the postal item from the Trader's address, that is, from an address that has been specially agreed upon with the Trader, to a specific access point - package machine from which the recipient will take over the postal item;

c)      delivery of postal item from a specific access point - package machine directly to the recipient's address.

Postal services will be paid on the basis of the invoice issued to the Trader by BOX NOW. BOX NOW will issue invoices to the Trader subsequently, as a rule, at the beginning of the month for the previous month, unless BOX NOW and the Trader enter into a special agreement regarding the dynamics of issuing invoices. As a rule, payment will be made once a month, but different payment dynamics can be determined by a special agreement with an individual Trader. The obligation to pay the fee for providing postal services arises at the moment when BOX NOW takes over the postal item from the Trader (regardless of the subsequent cancellation of the order and/or return of the postal item).

In relation to the Other senders, postal services will be performed in such a way that the sender via the website www.boxnow.hr. selects the size of the postal item he wants to send, fills in the information on the sender and recipient of the package and selects the delivery of postal item from a specific access point - a package machine to a specific access point - a package machine from which the recipient will take over the postal item.

Postal services in relation to the Other senders will be paid in advance, via the website www.boxnow.hr.

The sender will be given access to the selected access point - package machine, in such a way that, after submitting the order, a password is generated which allows the package to be deposited in the selected access point - BOX NOW package machine, according to the sender's choice, whereby access to the BOX NOW access points - package machines is ensured from 00:00 - 24:00 h every day of the week.

After the sender is permitted access to the selected access point - package machine, the sender places the postal item in the selected access point - package machine of BOX NOW. BOX NOW, after taking over the postal item, will deliver the postal item to the selected location - package machine or to the selected address of the recipient in case of Traders.

Trader has the right to choose whether the postal item will be delivered to the recipient via another selected access point - BOX NOW package machine, or directly to the recipient's address. In the event that the postal item is delivered to the recipient directly at the recipient's address, BOX NOW takes over the postal item from the access point - package machine and hands over the postal item to a licensed subcontractor for delivery to the recipient, or independently performs the delivery service directly to the recipient's address. The postal item is delivered to the recipient personally, or to a person other than the recipient designated by the sender, or to a member of the recipient's household. The stated persons confirm the receipt of the postal item with their signature.

In case of delivery to an access point - package machine, the Postal service performer will  send the recipient a text message to the mobile number provided to the sender or in other messaging applications (including but not limited to Viber, Whatsapp, and the like), or to the e-mail address with a six-digit password when the postal item is at the selected access point – package machine, and another message at least 8 hours before the time for leaving the postal item at the access point – package machine expires. By entering the mentioned password at the access point – package machine, the door of the access point – package machine opens and the postal item can be taken over.

The recipient accepts and permits BOX NOW to use his mobile phone number and e-mail address to send a special security code (password) related to the delivery, i.e., receipt of the postal item, to be informed about the status of his postal item, as well as to send an invoice for the performance of services in case of cash on delivery payment.

In the event that a postal item is received or delivered using BOX NOW package machines and a special security code (password), the use of a special security code (password) sent to the mobile phone number and/or e-mail address of the recipient confirms that it is the recipient that used a security code (password) sent to his/her mobile phone number and/or e-mail address, i.e., that that security code (password) was used on the behalf and for the account of the recipient.

The recipient is responsible for not disclosing the password to third parties, otherwise, use by a third party will be considered as use in the name and for the account of the recipient. BOX NOW will not be responsible for damage caused to the recipient as a result of the use of postal services by a third party.

The identification of the recipient is done through the recipient's mobile phone, in combination with a password, so the correctness of the recipient's mobile phone number is essential for the delivery of the postal item. It is the sender's sole responsibility to provide the mentioned data correctly to BOX NOW.

Tracking of items is done through BOX NOW's system, which enables tracking and tracing of postal items at all stages of their movement. BOX NOW will enable the recipient to log in to the BOX NOW website from a mobile phone or computer in order to have an overview of the delivery status of the postal item ordered by the sender.

Only in relation to the Traders, BOX NOW offers the option of paying for postal items by cash on delivery, that is, the possibility for the recipient to pay the price of the postal item upon delivery, by paying with a credit or debit card. Payment is made in a secure banking environment, using the services of an authorized payment service provider, whereby BOX NOW will send an email to the recipient with payment instructions. In the case of cash on delivery, the return of the amount to the Trader from BOX NOW is made within five (5) working days after payment of the total value of the postal item by the recipient. In the event that BOX NOW has a claim against the Trader, BOX NOW is authorized to unilaterally set off its claim against the Trader's counterclaim, which refers to the amount that, as a result of cash on delivery payment, BOX NOW is obliged to return to the Trader.

An additional cost is charged for the cash on delivery service, as stated in the price list published on the BOX NOW website. An additional cost is calculated when the recipient pays the price of the postal item upon delivery. Failure to collect the price of the postal item caused by an incomplete or otherwise incorrect order of the Trader will not establish BOX NOW's debt to the Trader. In addition, in case of failure to collect the price of the postal item for which BOX NOW is not responsible, i.e., in case of failure to collect the price of the postal item caused by an incomplete or otherwise incorrect order of the Trader, BOX NOW is only liable to the Trader up to the amount of the surcharge for the cash on delivery service, as stated in the price list. BOX NOW is not liable for cases when payment for cash on delivery services is not made due to reasons attributable to BOX NOW, but due to reasons on the part of the Trader, recipient, or a third party for which BOX NOW is not responsible. In the event that it is proven that the failure to collect cash on delivery was caused by negligent or illegal behaviour of BOX NOW, and in the event that the price of the postal item cannot be collected in another way, BOX NOW is liable up to the value of the postal item.

After delivery of the postal item by cash on delivery, BOX NOW does not accept subsequent complaints.

-          72 hours, in the case of delivery of postal item from a specific access point - a package machine to a specific access point - a package machine from which the recipient collects the postal item;
