Then the support team turned it around completely. Joyce took ownership of the case, storage fees for the whole waiting period were waived without me having to fight for it, and the Delaware warehouse team agreed to a custom request: unrolling the screen and folding it, so it fit within normal courier limits. Shipping cost dropped from $3,872 to $272, and the package arrived in Austria without issues.
Thank you Joyce, and thank you to the Delaware warehouse team.

Unknown Shipment Details
I had a parcel containing an empty e-cigarette atomizer that I wanted forwarded to France. Before ordering, I checked their published prohibited and restricted items lists, and this type of item was not listed as prohibited.
After the parcel arrived at their warehouse, they refused to forward it.
When I called customer service, I was first told this was because of a new rule introduced after they had problems shipping these products to the US. I pointed out that my parcel was going to France, not the US. I was then told that they had also had problems within the EU.
When I asked which regulation prevented them from shipping it to France, the representative then told me that there was actually no regulation preventing it and that this was simply an internal Forward2Me rule.
I explained that if this is their internal policy, their website should clearly reflect it so customers can know before sending goods to their warehouse. When I asked when this internal rule had been introduced, she told me she didn't know.
The whole conversation gave me the impression that explanations were being made up as we went along rather than there being a clear, documented policy.
The result is that I have wasted both time and money. The retailer does not accept a return in this situation, and Forward2Me's proposed option is essentially to destroy the item.
What made the experience particularly unacceptable was the customer service. When I asked the representative how Forward2Me intended to make the situation right, she told me to “contact customer service.” I pointed out that I was already speaking to customer service, and shortly afterwards she hung up on me.
I understand that a forwarding company is entitled to have its own restrictions. What I don't accept is taking delivery of customers' goods while those restrictions are not clearly disclosed on the published prohibited items lists, then giving contradictory explanations once the parcel is already in their possession.
Edit/Update:
After posting this review, I escalated the issue to management. Head of Global Shipping personally reviewed the case and responded very quickly.
She confirmed that the item itself was not prohibited from being imported into France and clarified that the issue was related to carrier restrictions rather than French regulations.
The prohibited-item restriction on my parcel has now been removed.
I still think the initial handling of the case and the contradictory information I received from customer service were poor, and it should not have required escalation to management to get a clear answer. However, once the issue reached the right person, it was handled quickly, professionally, and with a satisfactory resolution.
I originally gave one star because of the initial experience. I am leaving the original review below for context, but I wanted to add this update to fairly reflect how the situation was ultimately resolved.
We have reviewed your shipment and the specific item in question, the Wotofo Serpent Elevate RTA. We can confirm that this is an empty atomiser component and does not contain e-liquid, nicotine or a battery. We have not identified a specific French import regulation that prohibits this particular item.
The issue is instead related to carrier restrictions. Some of the courier services available through our platform restrict electronic cigarettes and their components, and these restrictions can apply to components even when they do not contain a battery or liquid. This was the basis for the restriction initially applied to your parcel.
We accept that this distinction was not explained clearly during your telephone conversation, and we apologise for the contradictory information you received. We have therefore reviewed the situation and offered you two options: we can remove the restriction and allow you to proceed with shipping, subject to the selected courier accepting the item, or we can arrange the return of the item to you free of charge.
We have also taken your comments regarding our published restricted-item information and the handling of your call seriously. We agree that customers should receive clear and consistent information about restrictions before sending goods to our warehouse.
We hope the options now offered provide a fair resolution and that you will reconsider your experience with us following our review.

Started a great experience. I sent them my MSDS and types of shipping for my product after I had with all Authorites that my products were not hazardous goods and it was confirmed by them I could use any shipping types they had. Ordered my product got it shipped for it to be marked hazardous, I sent an email and after a few back and forward hazardous was removed. But I sent another one after that response and nothing as it won't let me send it the way that was told I could. The time for return has passed and now I need to pay about 60.00 more in shipping than I thought or lose 120.00 in purchases and dispose of the product but I need them. Still no reply to my email 5th Aug asking why I was told I could use the service I asked about.

Update: It has been over three days with no response from them. They had asked me to arrange for a shipping company to pick up the product, but I have heard nothing since, resulting in yet another financial loss for me because of them.

I recently used forward2me’s Germany warehouse to ship a large, complex order of automotive components to Abu Dhabi, and the experience was absolutely outstanding.
Because my order contained delicate paper engine filters alongside heavy structural steel car parts, I was very concerned about shipping damage and volumetric weight optimization. The warehouse team did a flawless job repacking my items. They completely discarded the oversized transit boxes to save me money on shipping space, removed restricted grease packets to clear aviation rules, and packed the fragile filters perfectly safe from the heavy metal rods. The final actual weight and volumetric weight were a perfect, cost-efficient match!
I want to give a massive, special thanks to Nica from customer support. When my dashboard temporarily locked me out from making changes, Nica stepped in immediately. She was incredibly professional, handled my complicated customs invoice consolidation seamlessly, and double-checked all safety compliance questions to make sure my package wouldn't face any airport delays. Thanks to her quick communication, my shipment was released for dispatch with fully pre-paid duties, giving me total peace of mind
This was my very first time using an international freight forwarder, and forward2me made it completely stress-free. I highly recommend their service and will definitely be using them for all my future automotive shipments!
We're also glad that Nica was able to assist you promptly and professionally, helping ensure everything was arranged smoothly for dispatch.
We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to supporting you with your future automotive shipments!

We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the shipping cost.
From your comments, it appears your shipment contained perfume, which is classified as Dangerous Goods for air transport. These shipments must comply with strict IATA regulations, including the use of approved packaging, additional hazard labels, and specific documentation. In many cases, parcels also need to be repacked into a larger carton to ensure all required labels can be displayed correctly and safely.
We understand that these requirements can significantly increase the shipping cost. To help customers make an informed decision before shipping, we provide a dedicated perfume shipping quote on our website, which includes the additional Dangerous Goods handling charges.
We'd also like to clarify that we do not add a markup to courier charges. The shipping costs we quote reflect the courier's fees, along with any mandatory Dangerous Goods handling required to transport these items safely and legally.
We appreciate your feedback and will continue looking for ways to make our pricing and shipping requirements as clear as possible for customers.

What I appreciated: the flag was explained rather than just asserted, all costs were disclosed before anything was invoiced, and the replies were prompt and clear throughout. Shipping anything bulky to Iceland is normally painful and wildly expensive — this was neither. Parcel is booked and awaiting collection now.

Be careful with the estimated shipping costs; when I received the quote, I was told it would cost around €50.
When the item arrived at their warehouse, they forced me to repackage the package, increasing its size and weight, placing me (without the option) in the highest price bracket.
The customer service is very friendly, but they procrastinate a lot, responding to important emails after a few days...
Excellent service, but customer transparency ABSOLUTELY needs to be improved.
Attenzione ai costi stimati di spedizione, al momento del preventivo mi è stato comunicato un costo di circa 50€.
Arrivato l’oggetto al loro magazzino mi hanno costretto a re-imballare il pacco, aumentandone dimensione e peso, facendomi scattare (senza possibilità di scelta) nella fascia di costo più alta.
L’assistenza clienti è molto gentile, ma tergiversano parecchio, rispondendo a mail importanti dopo alcuni giorni….
Ottimo servizio, ma da rivedere ASSOLUTAMENTE la trasparenza verso il cliente.

I’d like to clarify why the **repackaging option was required**. Repackaging is not intended to create an unnecessary additional step or charge. Our warehouse team assesses parcels based on their dimensions, packaging condition, and whether the existing packaging is suitable for international transportation. If a parcel is flagged as having an irregular size or packaging that cannot safely accommodate the outbound shipping label, the system may require it to go through our repackaging process.
Repackaging allows our warehouse team to:
* Check that the contents are securely packaged for international transit.
* Reduce unnecessary packaging or excess dimensions where possible.
* Ensure the parcel can be safely labelled and processed by the selected courier.
* Potentially reduce the **volumetric weight**, which can affect the shipping cost.
I completely understand your frustration after seeing that there were already **426 parcels ahead of yours in the repackaging queue**. We appreciate that this is particularly disappointing when you were expecting to send a single item that was already packaged and ready to go.
Regarding the shipping price, international courier rates are unfortunately not directly comparable with what a private sender may pay when shipping through a different service or account. The price shown in your Forward2me account is based on the courier service available to us, the shipment's origin and destination, the parcel's actual/volumetric weight, and the applicable courier surcharges. That said, we understand why the cost may have come as a surprise.
We also apologise for the delay in initially registering your parcel. We understand that having to contact us to report the parcel as missing, followed by the subsequent repackaging requirement and queue, made the overall experience much more frustrating than it should have been.
We genuinely appreciate your feedback, and I’m sorry we did not provide the smooth first experience you expected. We will also review why the parcel was classified as requiring repackaging, as well as the handling delay, to make sure the process was applied correctly.

We sincerely apologise for the delay in sending your Japan shipment and for the inconvenience this caused, especially as the timing meant your friend had already travelled by the time the parcel was dispatched. We also understand your concern that the returned parcel has still not appeared in your account. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.
We would very much like the opportunity to investigate both matters and understand exactly what has happened. If you could please contact our Customer Experience team with your account details and any relevant shipment references, we can review the history of the missing Guernsey item and trace the returned Japan shipment to determine where it currently is and what happened.
We’re genuinely sorry for the frustration and disappointment this experience has caused, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.
