OF COURSE, I DO NOT DENY THAT FORWARD2ME HAS BEEN VERY EFFICIENT IN DELIVERING PARCELS INTERNATIONALLY AROUND THE WORLD WHICHEVER OPTIONS WHICH ONE CHOOSES. THE SAME GOES WITH ME WHEN I SELECT MY SHIPPING OPTION WITH FEDEX ECONOMY.

HOWEVER, THERE IS LACK OF COMPETITIVENESS IN TERMS OF PRICING AND LACK OF FLEXIBILITY IN ITS SHIPPING OPTIONS.

BY COMPARISON, TIPTRANS.COM OF U. K. OFFER ROYAL MAIL AND NOW EVRI AS THEIR SHIPPING OPTIONS WHILE FORWARD2ME DO NOT, MAKING THE OPTIONS LOOK VERY LIMITED OTHER THAN THOSE MORE EXPENSIVE OPTIONS.
I CERTAINLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY, STRANGELY, ROYAL MAIL IS NOT INCLUDED IN THEIR SHIPPING OPTION BECAUSE IT IS THEIR NATIONAL COURIER AND THEREFORE FORWARD2ME SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD OF IT.

THE OTHER FAILURE IS THAT IN TERMS OF FLEXIBILITY FORWARD2ME LOOSES OUT TO TIPTRANS BECAUSE TIPTRANS U. K. OFFER VERY FLEXIBLE COMBINE AND REPACK OPTIONS EVEN TO THOSE UNAFFORDABLE.
IN FORWARD2ME THE COMBINE AND REPACK OPTIONS ARE MADE TO CATER TO THE CONVENIENCE OF FORWARD2ME RATHER THAN TO ITS CLIENTS OR CUSTOMERS, BECAUSE IF MY PARCEL WEIGHT IS BELOW 1 KG, COMBINE AND REPACK OPTION IS NOT ENCOURAGED EVEN THOUGH THE MULTI PIECE SHIPPING OPTIONS LOOK ATTRACTIVE.

EVEN IF THE CHEAPEST OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE (THERE ARE TWO IN FACT) IT DOES NOT SERVE MUCH PURPOSE UNLESS ONE HAS ONLY, AND ONLY, 1 PARCEL TO SHIP, MINUS THE OTHER COMBINE AND REPACK OPTION WHICH IS ONLY LESS THAN 1 KILOGRAMME AND WHICH FAILS TO MEET THE CRITERION. ON THE WHOLE, THE WHOLE COMBINE AND REPACK OPTION LOOKS WHOLLY UNATTRACTIVE COMPARED TO THOSE OFFERED BY TIPTRANS U. K. IRRESPECTIVE OF THE WEIGHT AND SIZE OF THE PARCEL.

THUS, IT LOOKS AS THOUGH FORWARD2ME LOOKS MORE ATTRACTIVE TO THOSE WHO CAN REALLY AFFORD IT RATHER THAN TO THOSE WHO REALLY CANNOT AFFORD ITS SERVICES.

I was a little hesitant to pay for an item and have sent to third party. I was very impressed after how efficient the process was. Received package very quickly and was notified each step. Well worth the cost if getting items from UK

Although there were troubles such as the item being returned because it did not reach the destination in Germany, it seems that the purchaser and the destination were able to coordinate and it arrived safely.

Delivery was very quick, 4 days to Australia. My only issue is the proce quoting, where they have different postage prices depending which UK warehouse (mainland or channel island) you ship from. I had a quote for £40 on the website but the actual price was £60 because I used the channel island website. So double check what warehouse you are price checking for as its not clear on the webpage. I guess they think that because people save VAT by sending it to Guernsay they can raise postage by 50%.

There are two inbox addresses (UK (non-EU) and DE (EU)) in the company for a customer. A customer can have the primary shipping address is in EU. The service does not match the personal shopper locality and the customer delivery address. For example, EU to EU, and non-EU to non-EU. It would be better that forward2Me will match or request the matching to reduce tax costs.

Hi Aleksandr,

Many thanks for your feedback.
We are sorry to see that you have only provided us with 4*.

Unfortunately our personal shopper service is only available for purchases to our UK warehouse. If you require to purchase a product from an EU retailer then you would be responsible for the purchase of the goods and if your planning to ship the order within the EU through our services, it would be advised for you to use our EU warehouse as the delivery address from the retailer to avoid additional tax costs. We cannot currently offer the personal shopper service from any of our other warehouses but we are hoping the personal shopper service is something that we could look to introduce to our other warehouse locations in the future.

I hope the information I have provided to you is useful and that you would consider amending your current rating.
Please do not hesitate to contact our customer experience team if you should have any further questions or concerns in the meantime.

Kind Regards

Looking for a forward packaging service was a little daunting…till I found forward2me! I actually signed up for another service but took one look at the site then bounced. LOVE how user friendly the site is and it's just fun to login and see package status. Plus great updates and customer service!

I wanted to order something from a shop in UK which does not deliver to Germany.
With Forward2me I found a solution to get the goods delivered to me. Everything went very well and I can
Only recommend Forward2me in such a case.

I wanted to take advantage of the exchange rate and price structure luxury brands have outside the United States. I was nervous to use a forwarding service because I had no experience with it before. I am so glad I chose Forward2me! It was quick, inexpensive, and easy. I could not recommend them more.

Ordered product from Italy and shipped to forward2me Germany. Systems seemed automated and I received notification when the package arrived in Germany. Unfortunately when I logged on to choose my shipping method they had for some reason classified my package as hazardous goods. It took over a week of back and forth including finding and providing documents from the manufacturer that show the product is not classified as hazardous goods. Ultimately it went to the warehouse manager for a decision and he released the package. I never got an explanation of why they classified the package as hazardous. So it turned into a 10 day unnecessary shipping delay. Package arrived successfully with FedEx Connect which was the cheapest option. So end result I was happy but would like to see them improve the process.

Hi Darin,

Many thanks for your feedback
We are sorry that you can only provide us with 4*.

Your capacitors had been identified as hazardous or dangerous goods initially by our processing team to prompt you to contact us so we could complete further checks on the specification, voltage and watt hour capacity of the items and to also ensure that we would be accredited for shipping the capacitors under our export license with the couriers should the items have been classified as restricted for shipping. I understand that the additional checks did eventually conclude that the capacitors were not classified as hazardous as per the product specification documents provided from you and we were happy to release the package from your account to allow you to proceed with shipping these as normal.
We apologize if you felt the additional checks carried out for your package were unnecessary and our processing team may have been overcautious, however, as a forwarding agency we have to ensure we are completing country specific checks for items and abiding by the rules and regulations of IATA if handling and shipping any products that may or may not be classified as hazardous or restricted for international shipping.

To try and assist with reducing the delay times for these additional checks, if you are ever uncertain whether your item (s) may or may not be classified as restricted or problematic for international shipping, we would advise you to contact us prior to purchasing. We are prepared to discuss the possibility of handling and shipping the items and if we can agree to do so we will be able to discuss any additional conditions applicable to our handling and any additional charges that may apply.

We apologize for any further delays or frustrations caused to you.
We hope the issues you have highlighted will not deter you from shipping with us again and that you will reconsider your current rating.

Kind Regards

Hayley
