Not so! From their website:
What is the administration fee?
The fee for business customers is £10 or 2% of the shipment value,
whichever is the greater. The growth of Internet shopping has led us to
introduce a different administration fee for private individuals. This is
because net shoppers are usually buying infrequently and purchasing low
cost items such as CDs, DVDs or software. We felt that low usage such as
this merited a different fee structure. We charge £1.25, or 2% of the s
hipment value, whichever is the greater. This compares very favourably with
our competitors and we are, as far as we are aware, the only air express
carrier who has introduced a special rate for private individuals.
