The delivery is so so expensive
Hi there,Many thanks for your feedback.I am sorry to hear you feel dissatisfied with the overall shipping price you paid for your package from our Japan warehouse.Unfortunately we are limited with the couriers and shipping services we can offer to certain destination countries especially now due to the effects that COVID has caused at borders and countries globally.We do try and advise all our customers where possible to always ensure that their goods are sent with a fully tracked service and we understand that this would mean paying that little bit extra in shipping costs overall.I can understand that even the shipping price that you paid will not have appeared cost effective for you because you were only shipping one single package with a very small weight. Therefore we would suggest that you consider ordering more packages to our Japan warehouse for onward shipping and would mean your overall cost of shipping would be more justifiable for you because you would be receiving more items together rather than paying a higher shipping price to only receive one single package.DHL shipping prices are always based on the chargeable weight being calculated from either the volumetric weight or the actual weight- whichever is greater- which means you could be shipping a lot more items for the same shipping price you paid for one single package which would make the overall cost for shipping more effective for you.I hope the information I have provided to you is useful and that you will reconsider your current rating of our service. Please feel free to get in touch with our Customer Service team at anytime if you have any further questions relating to our service.Kind RegardsHayley

I have used this service for about a year now and I do not recommend using them. The shipping fees are VERY expensive, which wouldn't even be that big of a problem if their service made up for it, which it definitely does not. At least 60-70% of my shipments with them have had some sort of problem. Some of my packages have been lost after arriving at the warehouse. Many times the price you have to pay does not match the quote you get when combining packages for shipment (even though it says it will be between these two amounts it's often even higher). There have been way too many "system issues" that have caused them to cancel shipment invoices and "fix it" so that when it is regenerated the price is higher to ship the same packages. The biggest problem I have had through all of the time I have worked with them is that not once has the company paid the price difference for any mistakes made. Every single time I have been stuck paying the difference. You waste, sometimes a week or more, going back and forth via email only to give up and just pay the difference so you can get your shipment. Often times the responses you receive from customer service are a complete joke and are no help at all. Overall I would recommend trying a different company for any freight forwarding services you need.

I ordered a ski bag and skis. First time using the German address and it was just as smooth as the UK experience over the years. They were able to combine both things and ship. Customer service was great in getting the packing just how I wanted it, and was very prompt with communication. There is one downside. The ski package was over their length limit and was considered special and therefore cost me more to ship. The box was somewhat long (under six feet) but very skinny and volumetrically small. It could have fit in the smallest hatchback auto with no issues. I do not consider that package to be special in size, but maybe there are parcel restrictions in place the company can’t avoid.

I was disappointed with the final quote. When I entered the measurements I received a reasonable quote. However, when I received the final quote from you it was 3 times the amount. Plus when you opened up my package it wasn't repackaged how it was delivered to you.
Hi there,
Many thanks for your feedback.
I am sorry that you feel disappointed with the final shipping quote for your package.
I have checked the final shipping price you would have been quoted for your package with FedEx from our pricing page on our website and this does match the shipping price you paid for with FedEx from your account but the pricing page shipping quote would have not included the additional Australian GST-the pricing page only shows +GST. This is because GST has to be calculated from 10% of the total purchase value of the goods and 10% shipping cost and this cannot be added on until the final shipment has been processed for your package from your account.
Please be aware that we are required to recover GST on behalf of the Australian Government from all customers who are shipping goods to Australia that are less than $1000 AUD total value.
This information is also available from the FAQ's section on our website.
I have also checked the status of your package and this was not requested for a repack service by you from your account prior to shipping which means the package will have been shipped out to you exactly as it arrived to us from the original sender.
If you do have any discrepancies with the final shipping price you have been quoted from your account in comparison to the shipping price you were provided from the pricing page on our website or if you are experiencing any issues with anything from your account please do get in touch with one of our customer experience team who will be more than happy to check these details for you and clarify any questions or concerns you may have.
I hope the information I have provided to you is helpful, we hope these issues do not deter you from using our services again in the future and that you will reconsider your current rating of our services.

Product purchased (a car headlight) from Lithuania and forwarded to your German warehouse. Arrived in Australia broken in several places. Probably poorly packaged by the original forwarder, but I would have thought - for what I paid - that forward2me would have inspected the parcel and made a decision about whether it was adequately packaged to survive the rest of the journey. It clearly was not, and I feel very let down that forward2me made no attempt to ensure that it was better packaged for the onward journey.
Hi Angus,Many thanks for your feedback.I am sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with our services and that you have received your car part in poor condition to your Australian address.All damage or loss claims must be notified to us via email as soon as the shipment has been received so we can request the relevant images and documents from you that are relating to the goods in the shipment, so we can then proceed to determine liability for the damage and ensure we are still within the stated timeframe to be able to submit a claim to the courier if needed. All damage claims must be notified by us to FedEx in writing within 21 calendar days from the date FedEx accepted the shipment, failing which no action for damages may be brought against FedEx. I have checked the date that your shipment was dispatched from our EU warehouse up until the date of delivery and we should still be within the 21 days timeframe to submit a damage claim with the courier for your shipment if needed, once we have assessed the images of the damage to the packaging and to your goods in more detail.I believe one of my customer experience agents has already reached out to you via email to request the required images and documents for a damage claim ready to escalate this issue to the FedEx couriers as soon as possible. Please keep an eye out for our email.I hope this helps you further.Kind RegardsHayley

The service was good. I did have bit of a problem inputting the address since its new to me. Ended up switching part of it but it seem like it did not matter. If i could say that one thing is missing is that in some other service they take photos of your box so you can desided if you want it repack or not.

F2me continues to be my 1st choice when it comes to send parcels from UK to Portugal. Again, in my last experience, the satisfaction was VERY HIGH!
I really hope (and I mean it) that the relationship between the company and the customer may stay this healthy. While it remains healthy, I will ALWAYS be a customer, no doubt!
A BIG "Thank You" to F2me team for all attention and availability!

Hi there,
Many thanks for your feedback.
I am sorry to hear you have experienced certain difficulties with completing processes for shipping your packages through your account and that you feel the shipping costs were not within your budget.
I have calculated that, based on the type of products you were shipping, the shipping price you were offered, for your 4 packages as a multi piece shipment, was one of two best available courier prices, excluding the additional Australian GST, from our EU warehouse. FedEx International Priority would have been the more cost effective courier service, excluding GST, by approximately €9.50
Furthermore if you had chosen to repack your goods for shipping as one piece rather than sending as a multi piece shipment this would have actually increased the overall chargeable weight for your shipping price, you would have ended up paying a much higher shipping rate and you would have also had additional repack charges to pay on top of the base shipping price excluding GST.
The documents you would have been asked to upload from your account, prior to shipping, were the relevant proof of purchases for the goods in the stated packages that you required to ship. This is how our system works out the relevant Australian GST (Goods and Service Tax) which we are instructed to pass on to the Australian government for every shipment we send to Australia through our company. The Australian GST is calculated at 10% of the total value of the goods and also 10% of the shipping costs and this is applied to your total shipping invoice when you process your packages with the required courier service for shipping. We are required to charge 10% GST on all goods with a value of $1000 Australian dollars or less being shipped via our services and 10% on the shipping service provided. Shipments over the value of $1000 will be charged on import. We understand the additional GST charges would have also increased your costs for shipping overall however the GST charges are beyond our control because due to us being a registered international forwarding agency we need to account for GST on sales of low value goods to consumers in Australia.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
If you are already a registered Australian Business account holder which is approved for GST, you can register this account number on your forward2me profile and GST will not be charged on shipping via your forward2me account. The transaction will need to be declared during your usual return to the Australian Tax Office.
I hope the information I have provided to you is useful and we hope that the issues you have faced will not deter you from using our services again in the future and that you will reconsider your current rating of our services.
Please do not hesitate to get back in touch if you should require any further assistance with anything else.

Hayley

Many thanks for your feedback.
I am sorry to hear you feel dissatisfied with the shipping price for your package from our Turkey warehouse.
I have calculated the original chargeable weight of your POLO package and this would have been based on the volume of the package (12.61 kg) rather than the actual weight of the package 5.95 kg which would have meant you would have paid €156.27 for the shipping costs. Most couriers, including DHL, will base their shipping costs on the greater of either the actual weight or volumetric weight for a package.
I can see that you did request a combine and repack service for the package which successfully reduced the chargeable weight of your package by almost 8 kg which in turn lowered your overall shipping cost down with a difference of €48.69. Our combine and repack service enabled you to make an overall saving on the original shipping price for your package from our Turkey warehouse.
I can understand that even the discounted shipping price that you eventually paid (€107.58) may not have appeared cost effective for you because you were only shipping one single package. Therefore we would suggest that you order more packages to our Turkey warehouse for onward shipping and the overall cost of shipping would be more justifiable for you because you would be receiving more items together as one shipment rather than paying a higher price to only receive one single package. For example, if you shipped multiple packages from the Turkey warehouse that had a similar combined total volumetric weight as your POLO package was (12.61 kg) you would still only be required to pay the same shipping price that you would have paid for the single POLO package originally (€156.27) because the DHL shipping rate would still be based on the greater chargeable weight being the volume rather than the actual weight which means you would be receiving more items for the same shipping price.
I hope the information I have provided to you is useful and that you will reconsider your current rating of our service. Please feel free to get in touch with our Customer Service team at anytime if you have any further questions relating to our service.
