I have been a regular Forward2me customer for quite some time and have already spent a substantial amount of money on their forwarding services. For that reason, I was disappointed with how this particular case was initially handled.
A very small parcel unexpectedly arrived at the Forward2me Germany warehouse several months after the original purchase. Since I was going to be in Germany anyway, I asked whether the parcel could simply be sent to my mother’s address within Germany. I even purchased and provided the DHL shipping label myself.
As a long-standing customer, I had expected this small exceptional request to be handled as a gesture of goodwill, especially since Forward2me only had to prepare the parcel and hand it over to DHL. Instead, the process became unnecessarily complicated and required repeated follow-ups from my side.
What concerned me most was that I was initially charged more than €150 in storage fees, even though I had only been notified about the parcel around two weeks earlier and the original Forward2me notification itself stated that storage was free for 30 days.
These storage charges were not identified and removed proactively. I had to point out the issue myself before it was reviewed and eventually corrected. I would have expected such a substantial charge to be checked before the invoice was sent to me, rather than leaving it to the customer to notice and challenge it.
I also had to follow up several times throughout the process to get updates and move the case forward. That is probably the biggest area where I think Forward2me could improve: more proactive ownership of unusual cases, better internal checks before invoices are issued, and less need for the customer to chase progress.
That said, I do want to acknowledge the positive side as well. Jus remained polite and helpful throughout the communication and ultimately managed to arrange the domestic shipment and have the incorrect storage fees removed.
After I raised my concerns further, Aimee from the Customer Experience Team also handled my feedback professionally, acknowledged that the case should have been dealt with more proactively and helped restore my confidence in the company.
So while the process itself was more complicated and frustrating than it should have been, I appreciate that Forward2me ultimately took responsibility for the issues and resolved the matter properly.
I hope the company uses this case to improve its internal processes, especially for loyal customers and exceptional situations. The final resolution was good, but ideally the customer should not have to push so hard to get there.
Firstly, I’m sorry that this case took longer to resolve than it should have and that you had to follow up several times to move things forward. In hindsight, we agree that the storage charges should have been reviewed and removed much earlier, particularly given the circumstances of the late delivery and your long-standing relationship with us.
We understand that exceptional cases sometimes require a more flexible approach, and this is an area where we can improve. Better internal communication, more proactive ownership and earlier review of unusual situations are all things we continue to work on.
That said, I’m pleased that Jus was able to assist throughout the process and that Aimee was able to address your concerns and help reach a positive resolution.
We genuinely value your continued support and appreciate both your patience and your constructive feedback. Reviews such as this help us improve our processes and ensure that we provide the level of service our customers expect and deserve.

I purchased an e-bike that was delivered to Forward2me completely unpackaged. They took care of everything and professionally packed the bike into two separate packages—one for the wheels and one for the frame.
Since it was an e-bike, the shipment had to be handled as dangerous goods due to the battery. Forward2me handled the entire process very professionally.
The packaging was excellent—extremely secure, carefully done, and clearly prepared with great attention to detail. The bike arrived safely and everything went smoothly.
I’m extremely satisfied with the service and would definitely use Forward2me again. Highly recommended!
Our warehouse team takes extra care with shipments like e-bikes, especially when the battery requires dangerous goods handling, so it’s wonderful to hear that their attention to detail gave you confidence throughout the process.

My experience with Forward2Me has been good overall. My package arrived at their warehouse quickly, the paid photo request came back fast with clear shots, and I got timely email updates as my package moved through their repack queue.
One thing I'm hoping gets sorted: my package needed their mandatory "Combine & Repack" service after the original packaging was flagged as poor quality by their specialists. I chose "Repack for Safety" specifically to stay eligible for Protect+ insurance — but once the repack was done and the package showed READY, Protect+ was blocked with the message that it's "not available for this request, because it contains a parcel that our specialists advised to be repacked."
I've checked their Terms of Trade and their own "Shipments NOT Eligible for Claims & Protect+" article and can't find this listed as an exclusion anywhere, so it may just be a system glitch rather than intentional. I've emailed twice about it and tried calling, but haven't been able to get a direct answer yet.
Everything else about the process has been smooth, and I'd genuinely like to give this a higher rating — just hoping someone from the team can take a look and help get it sorted.
Update: they have responded and worked on my concern. Thank you forward2me.
Update: issue fully resolved, Protect+ now applied
Updating this after a few more days. The core problem — Protect+ being blocked after my package was flagged for repacking — turned out to be a genuine system glitch on their end: my original repack request had gotten stuck, which was blocking insurance eligibility even though nothing was actually wrong with the package. To their credit, once I pushed on it with documentation, they investigated properly, reproduced the error themselves, escalated it internally, and fixed it. Protect+ is now showing correctly on my shipment.
It took a few days of back-and-forth to get there, and the early support replies didn't always match what I could see on my own account, which was frustrating in the moment. But Jamie on their Customer Experience team stuck with it, kept me updated, and saw it through to an actual fix rather than a brush-off.
Bumping this up because the outcome was right in the end: a real problem, taken seriously, and properly resolved. Would use them again.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and, especially, for updating your review after we were able to work on your concern.
We’re really pleased to hear that your experience has been positive overall, and we genuinely appreciate your patience while we looked into the Protect+ issue. Your feedback is also valuable to us, as it helps us identify where we can improve the process for our customers.
Thank you again for choosing forward2me and for giving us the opportunity to put things right. We really appreciate your support!

For your parcel, the optimisation request was submitted on 12 September at 10:49 and completed on 16 September at 12:07. Please note that our warehouse is closed every weekend, so weekend days are not included in our processing time. Excluding the weekend, the request was completed within approximately 2 business days.
We understand that the wait was frustrating, and we appreciate your patience while our team worked through the increased volume. We’re continuing to work on reducing the Combine & Repack backlog and improving processing times.

We appreciate you highlighting the additional time involved compared with direct shipping. Our forwarding service does involve an intermediate step, but we’re pleased that you found the process clear and the overall shipping cost reasonable.

We understand that some items may be accepted by other shipping companies without being classified as dangerous goods. However, dangerous goods regulations and carrier acceptance criteria can vary depending on the product, its contents, packaging, destination, and transportation method. This means an item that another company accepts may still require additional checks, handling, or documentation through our service.
Regarding the shipping cost, dangerous goods shipments can incur additional carrier surcharges and handling fees, which can sometimes make the final shipping cost significantly higher than the item's value. We appreciate that this can be frustrating, particularly when the shipping cost appears disproportionate to the value of the item.
We also apologise if our response times have been longer than expected. We’re continuing to work on improving our response times and appreciate your patience while we review these queries.

I chose different ways of packing - from packing for safety to packing to save cost. NONE of the items were damaged (they are all wargame miniatures) and NONE items were lost.

In my case, I accidentally used Forward2Me's previous warehouse address when placing an order worth more than USD 1,000. The mistake was entirely mine, and I openly acknowledged that from the very beginning. The package was successfully delivered to the old warehouse location. The current Forward2Me warehouse is located only a short distance away, and according to Forward2Me's customer service, packages delivered to the former facility were still being collected and forwarded until recently. Despite this, they refused to provide any practical assistance whatsoever.
I was not asking Forward2Me to accept liability for my mistake. I was simply hoping for some help from a company that has local knowledge, local staff, and experience dealing with deliveries to the former warehouse address. Instead, I was repeatedly told to contact the courier or the seller, even though it was obvious that neither party had any realistic way of recovering the package.
What disappointed me most was not the mistake itself. It was the complete lack of willingness to help when help was needed most. Customer service should be about solving problems, not just pointing to terms and conditions.
If everything goes smoothly, Forward2Me may work well. But if something unexpected happens, do not expect any support. In my experience, you end up losing a significant amount of money even in a situation where a practical solution exist. What makes this particularly frustrating is that Forward2Me's customer service confirmed that misdelivered packages sent to the former warehouse address were still being collected from that location until recently. Despite this, they were unwilling to provide any practical assistance or even make a reasonable effort to help recover a shipment worth more than USD 1,000.
Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Forward2Me and will not use their service again.
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We sincerely apologize for the frustration and disappointment you experienced while trying to recover your package. We understand that using our former warehouse address was an error on your part, and we appreciate that you acknowledged this from the beginning.
However, we also recognize that you were hoping for practical assistance rather than simply being directed to the courier or seller. We understand how frustrating this must have been, particularly given the value of your shipment.
As soon as you shared the details of the recipient, our team committed to contacting them directly to coordinate the recovery options. We will continue exploring the most practical way to have your package returned to the correct address.
Your feedback also highlights the importance of reviewing how we communicate and support customers when deliveries are made to a former warehouse address. We will take this into consideration to improve our approach in similar situations.
Thank you for your patience and for working with us toward a resolution.
Kind regards,

UPD : The company contacted me, offered a cheaper shipping option, handled the repacking at their own expense, and gave me a 20% discount on shipping. Nevertheless, the underlying issue remains—it’s a matter of how business is conducted. If the company wants to charge £3 for order processing, I have no problem with that; they need to make a profit. I also wouldn't mind if they added a few pounds to the cost of the shipping method I chose. But they need to be honest and transparent about it, rather than causing unnecessary stress and forcing an exorbitantly expensive shipping option on the customer. Run your business honestly, and you won't get reviews like this. Good luck.
We’re sorry for the frustration and stress caused by the repacking requirement, shipping options, and communication delays. We understand that from your perspective, the process felt unclear and unnecessarily difficult.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding transparency around shipping costs and processing requirements. We take this seriously, and your comments will be shared internally as we continue reviewing how we communicate these requirements to customers.
Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to resolve the issue and for taking the time to provide detailed feedback.

Ich war nur von den Zollkosten geschockt. UPS Versand 30€ bezahlt, soweit so gut. Zollgebühren 63€!!! (45€ Zoll und 16€ UPS Gebühr, 2€ MwSt). Obwohl Warenwert der Sendung 128€ war...
We understand your disappointment regarding the additional customs costs. Import duties, taxes, and courier handling fees are determined by the destination country's customs authorities and the courier, and unfortunately, these charges are outside our control.

The warehouse packing team took my instructions incredibly seriously! The packing was next-level: using high-quality honeycomb cushioning to completely immobilize the item. It was dead silence when I shook the double-box, and everything arrived in pre-departure condition.

This entire experience highlights the perfect harmony between front-facing support and back-end execution, which signifies a company running in tune.
