Excellent process to get ordered stuff to the Netherlands when the webshop doesn't have this option to do so itself.
The service is fantastic. When having any questions they respond very quick even during evening hours.
The process from arriving at forward2me until receiving it at home is fast, well packed and decently.
The only thing that shocked me were the shipping costs. And of course the customs costs since the UK is out of the EU.

Very bad experience! I ordered a backpack ( 35 £ ) from a store in the uk and paid for it to be sent to forwardtome, also in the uk (20 £). That took 2 days. Then I had to pay 50 £ for it to ship from uk to iceland which is not far away, im in europe and just across the sea. One would think that such a hefty sum would include domestic shipping but oh no I had to pay 35 £ extra upon arrival.
When I order from independant stores like etsy usa or from big companies like amazon.co.uk I usually pay 16-30 £ for shipping to iceland. Amazon does not let you pay domestic shipping instead. Basically I had to pay additional 105 £ for a small 35 £ backpack...
Thats not all. They advertise fast service but I got my package after 27 days!!!! 22 of those days it was stuck in the uk. I haver never in my life had to wait so long, not even regarding packages from china. They can not blame covid or the ukraine war since I ordered other packages from usa and uk at the same time and the usa package took 2 weeks and the uk one took a week, both very standard time.
Btw forwardtome sent me a message on this same review on trustpilot asking for my info to assist. Don't bother sending it again because what for ? You know what you are doing and its not like im going to get my money back.

Hi there,
Many thanks for your feedback.
We are sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with our services.
I do clearly recall responding to your previous review in Trustpilot that was relating to this same issue, however, your previous Trustpilot review provided insufficient customer account or shipment information, which is required in order for us to be able to locate your account details with our service and enable us to look into your issue in more detail.
I am pleased that we are now able to evaluate that the previous review in Trustpilot was in relation to your account.
I have now be able to check your account and communication history with our services.
I can see you were querying the shipping costs and service options available to you with one of my agents. I believe you wanted to send your 2 backpacks with the untracked Royal Mail Budget service but this courier option was not showing for your package from your account when you clicked 'Ship Now'.
I must make you aware that the untracked Royal Mail budget service is for a package with a weight of less than 2 kg, overall dimensions of less than 90 cm and a value under £20. Unfortunately the stated package limitations and requirements for the untracked shipping option are not specified by us as a forwarding service, these are specified by the courier service Royal Mail and because your package, conta8inbign the 2 backpacks, was over 90 cm in dimensions overall and over the maximum value of £20.00 this is the reason why you were not given the untracked shipping service option for your package. We do advise customers to always send their goods through one of our available tracked services to ensure the stated movement and location of their packages through the shipping network. The Royal Mail budget service, although is a cheaper shipping option, is classed as a standard untracked postal service, there would be no way of locating your package once it leaves our facility, the delivery timeframe can take up to 6 weeks to be completed and there is no cover for loss or damage of your package through this Royal Mail service.
We have done some calculations on your original package and we do feel that you were offered the most cost effective courier service for your package with the fully tracked TNT Economy service. The chargeable weight of your package was being based on the volumetric weight (size of the package) for the shipping prices with the courier services and if you had chosen to send your package from a combine and repack service to attempt to make the size of the backpacks in the package smaller and reduce the overall dimensions of the package this would have not altered the shipping costs with the available tracked courier services much more, TNT Economy service would have still been the more cost effective courier service option for your package and you would have ended up paying an additional £2.00 repack fee unnecessarily.
Our shipping rates are reviewed each year, with each of the courier services, to make them as cost effective as possible based on the volume of packages that we receive and we do also apply our service charge to the overall shipping prices, with the couriers, as a percentage. Please be aware that it is a service that you are paying for through our company as well as shipping.
All courier transit times stated on our website can only be seen as an estimate due to transit times being subject to any unavoidable transit or connection delays with the couriers or local customs clearance. However I have looked at the tracking link for your shipment with the TNT Economy service and I can clearly see your package was delayed in the network for 3 weeks. I cannot see that any of the delays were linked to customs clearance delays which is usually the main reasons for shipments taking longer to move onto delivery in the network especially if there is a backlog for the couriers at destination.
We apologize for any frustration and inconveninece this long delay with your shipment has caused you.
I have immediately submitted a query to TNT, in relation to the continuous delays for your shipment, to try to determine the cause and to also evaluate if it is possible for us to raise a claim with the courier for the 3 week delay, as the original shipper, and try to source some compensation for you.
I will be back in touch with you via direct email to reiterate what has been discussed with you in from this review and to further update you on the status of the query I have open with TNT in relation to your shipment as soon as I have received a response from the courier.
I hope the information I have provided to you has been useful, we hope this issue does not deter you from using our services again in the future and that you will choose to reconsider your current rating of our services.
Kind Regards
Hayley

TOO EXPENSIVE SHIPPING COST SO THERE IS NO NEED TO USE YOUR SERVICES AGAIN
Hi there.
Many thanks for your message.
We are sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied.
Please note that all of our shipping rates are reviewed each year, with each of the courier services, to make them as cost effective as possible based on the volume of packages that we receive.
I can see that you chose to send your package with UPS Express service due to this being the most cost effective courier option, at the time of shipping, based on the greater chargeable weight of your package for shipping which. in your case, had been based on the volumetric weight of the package (size of the package) rather than the actual weight of the goods.
If you had chosen to submit a combine and repack request for your package, containing the pair of shoes, it may have been possible for our repack team to reduce the original dimensions of the box containing the pair of shoes or simply allocated the contents to a smaller box. However, please note that, it is more difficult to fully reduce the overall chargeable weight or volume of packages containing shoes if the original shoes boxes are to be retained. Shoe boxes can cause a lot of unnecessary excess space within a package and does mean that the overall size of package that is containing shoes in shoe boxes cannot always be successfully reduced.
Volumetric Weight, sometimes referred to as dimensional weight, is a measure used by couriers like DHL and UPS to set the price of shipping items which are large in volume but relatively light in weight. In a case like this, Volumetric Weight is what determines the price of the shipping service. Volumetric Weight is calculated differently by service. Combine and repacking may be a better option dependent on the size of the packaging and if there is a lot of room for it to be decreased as this will mean the volumetric weight has been reduced. Where the Chargeable Weight has been determined by the Volumetric Weight it is a good idea to combine and repack your items into fewer or smaller packages to reduce costs and eliminate the risk of individual boxes going missing. We do provide information to assist you in making this decision. when you select 'Combine and Repack' option from your account.
I hope the information I have provided to you is useful, we sincerely hope that this issue does not deter you from using our service again in the future and that you will reconsider your current rating of our service.
If you do have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to get in contact with our Customer Experience team who will be more than happy to assist you.

This was my first time using an int'l forwarding service. I was skeptical I'd be scammed, but was willing to take a one-time risk. Forward2me was customer-oriented and utterly professional through the entire process. I received my item on the day forward2me projected it to arrive. Thanks, Aimee, for the help you provided in the transaction.
