oof. I've had this exact same problem with DHL. There's DHL, DHL International and DHL Express, each with country specific branches. I once had a package of business cards "destroyed" because DHL Express will not deliver to a DHL Packstation.
I can only assume it's a natural artifact of organisations getting so big and inefficient, which seems to be a common factor in the mail industry, and packages literally falling between the cracks of the organisation.
