Fast option to buy UK products in Canada. Note you'll have to pay the 20% VAT if you use their personal shopper service. Would be great if they could setup the personal shopper service with a Guernsey billing address.

Great service! I would just suggest on larger packages if able to provide some additional padding so items don’t move. This was a non-issue for my order but something I wanted to at least mention.

A great service to forward packages from UK to Europe. Easy to combine and ship several parcels. I like a possibility to choose a carrier based on the delivery price. It is also worth noting the work of the support service: it is excellent! I'll definitely use Forward2Me again.

Saw a few mixed reviews but their service from the UK to US was seem less and very affordable. I was just shipping one item but I received notification of it’s arrival at their warehouse right away and had it in hand a few weeks later.

Hi Forward2me staffs
First of all, I want to thank the staffs very much for their courteous and prompt service. This was my first time using an international forwarding service, and I was worried about a lot of things, but customer support responded quickly and provided me with accurate information, so my worries were put to rest. There was nothing difficult about the system, and the user-friendly interface made it possible for anyone to use the service as long as they can read English. The package I received had a few scratches on some of the outer boxes, but they were not a problem. In terms of price, it would be nice if it were a little cheaper, but considering the current state of logistics, I think it is an acceptable price. I will recommend Forward2me to my friends who want to buy sneakers and apparel from overseas using forwarding service.
I will use it again next time I shop overseas!
By the way, do you have Forward2me business in Japan? I am very interested in the service and would like to see the Job Description if there is an open position.

Hi Bruno.
We are sorry that you have only provided a 1* rating.
I can see that you have shipped from our Tax Free warehouse in Guernsey which does only currently offer the DHL Express service. We have experienced difficulties with being able to offer untracked budget postal services for our customers in New Zealand and Australia from our warehouses due to the additional GST requirements.
We do apologise for any inconveninece this may be causing our customers.
We are in the process of introducing an additional tracked courier service from our Tax Free warehouse to offer more flexibility to our customers who choose to use this warehouse for international shipping. Unfortunately we cannot yet confirm when the new courier services will be ready to go live from Guernsey but we will ensure all customers are notified as soon as we receive the green light.
Please be assured we are continuously working on sourcing more budget courier options for our customers, including Australia and New Zealand, and hope to have these additional services rolled out from all of our warehouse locations as soon as possible.
We appreciate your continuous patience and support of our service whilst we work on these improvements.
We hope that the issues you have highlighted in your review will not deter you from shipping with us again in the future and that you will reconsider your current rating of our services.
Kind Regards
Hayley

Overall an outstanding ship forwarder. Opens doors to many markets for me. When repacking packages, it would be even better for your UK office to keep all the product documentations for customer, just like your Japan office does.
Hi Owen.
Many thanks for your feedback.
I am sorry to hear this.
All documentation that is included within packages should be retained and carried over during repacks unless otherwise requested by our customers'.
Sometimes senders do not provide purchase documentation or receipts in the original packages with the orders and provide the purchase documents to the buyer via email instead.
However it is also possible that the repack team had failed to retain all of the original documentation during the repack service for your packages on this occasion.
If this was the case then we sincerely apologize for this error and for any inconveninece this has caused you.
Our Tax Free warehouse have been made aware of this potential error and they will ensure all purchase documents are being retained and carried over during repacks every time going forward.
I hope this information is useful and we would really appreciate it if you would reconsider your current rating of our service.

I’ve been looking for a way to purchase some items from the UK, that are unavailable for sale in the US, for some time. A quick Google search turned up the Forward2Me service. After looking into their process, and reading reviews, I decided to give their services a shot. From giving me my own UK ship to address so I could place the order, to receiving and repacking, to the super reasonable FedEx rates to me in the US, Forward2Me delivered, and delivered very well!
This was my first time using their services, and I certainly feel this is s wonderful start to a long relationship ahead.

Requesting consolidation won’t actually consolidate your packages - most if the time they claim there is no point in consolidating and auto cancel the request, even though 10 boxes can be made into two.
They don’t package your goods properly, most of my stuff was damaged in transit because of the poor packaging.

Great service. Never had an issue with any of the services proposed. Don' t get me wrong... Its expensive to ship to my country. I do recommend them to find a solution for smaller packages as most of the time prices seem too much for a package if a few grams. Other than that i am satisfied with services and interactions with the staff also. Cheers guys.
Hi Kervin.
Many thanks for your feedback.
We are pleased to hear that overall you are satisfied with the service that we offer for our customers.
We understand that everyone is facing financially challenging times worldwide and the fluctuating fuel surcharge rates with each courier service are causing increases in the overall shipping prices we are currently offering. Some courier companies review their fuel surcharges once a month and others review and amend the fuel surcharges on a weekly basis and the courier services' are also having to apply additional emergency surcharge fees in relation to COVID restrictions from country to country.
We apologize for any inconvenience or difficulties this may be causing all of our customer's.
I hope the information I have provided to you is useful and please do not hesitate to get back in touch if you do have any
further questions or concerns.

I would recommend forward2me. I have a fantastic book about the abacus that I wouldn’t be able to obtain because the seller wouldn’t ship outside of Japan. I have not seen this book anywhere else. I now am motivated to learn the Japanese language. I’ll start with OCR/machine translation but I really am interested to learn at least reading and writing. This would not be except for forward2me. One more comment. The book arrived FAST. I am pleased.

I was super worried at first since what I had ordered was a pre-order that was a long way out, and making sure I'd be on top of everything, being unsure how it would 100% get to the right place and attributed to me. I had some contact with customer service and they explained fully how it would be under my account, and when my package showed up it was super easy to get everything on it's way to me! Very happy with the ease of it all and the low fees for a proxy service!

Was forced to have the package re-packed, this added delay and minimal reduction in size. Was promised a choice of shipping companies, but was forced to use FedEx Express at a a very high cost.
Hi there.
Many thanks for your feedback.
I am sorry that you feel dissatisfied with the shipping rate that was offered to you from our UK warehouse.
We understand that everyone is facing financially challenging times worldwide and the fluctuating fuel surcharge rates with each courier service are causing increases in the overall shipping prices we are currently offering. Some courier companies review their fuel surcharges once a month and others review and amend the fuel surcharges on a weekly basis and the courier services' are also having to apply additional emergency surcharge fees in relation to COVID restrictions from country to country.
We apologize for any inconvenience or difficulties this may be causing all of our customer's.
I can see that your package was marked as requiring a a combine and repack service prior to shipping. The concept of the combine and repack service would usually refer to removing or reducing as much unnecessary excess space or voids in order to consolidate as many times together as one piece to reduce as much volumetric weight as possible but this would be dependant on the type of items being repacked. Because your package was containing fragile car parts your package would have been assessed and carried for safety purposes rather than to reduce excess volume and this does not always guarantee potential savings on the original shipping costs. Furthermore because you had chosen the FedEx courier service for the combine and repack service from your account this would have been the only available courier service for you to select from your account at shipping stage although we do have the ability to open up the courier options after a repack has been completed by request.
We had managed to reduce the overall chargeable weight of your package by 1.02 kg which lowered the original shipping price with FedEx for your package by almost GBP 6.00.
We must make you aware that we will always assess packages for repack for safety as well as volume for onwards shipping and we cannot not make any guarantees that a combine and repack service will always assist with reducing the overall chargeable weight for the shipping price.
If you should have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to get back in touch with our Customer Experience team who will be more than happy to assist you further.
I hope the information provided to you is useful, we hope this issue will not deter you from shipping with us again in the future and you will reconsider your current rating of our services.

Happy with the service provided but very expensive.
Hi there.
Many thanks for your feedback.
We are sorry that you feel dissatisfied with the total shipping price paid.
The Australian Government introduced the charge of GST(Goods and Service Tax) on 1st July 2018.
We therefore need 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 at the Australian border.
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. We have to recover GST for the Australian Government on all shipments less than $1000 AUD if not GST registered, this a mandatory requirement for us as a forwarding agency and because we are offering shipping services to Australia and our revenue for shipments to customers' in Australia being over the maximum stated threshold we have to be GST registered.
We understand that everyone is facing financially challenging times worldwide and the fluctuating fuel surcharge rates with each courier service are causing increases in the overall shipping prices we are currently offering. Some courier companies review their fuel surcharges once a month and others review and amend the fuel surcharges on a weekly basis and the courier services' are also having to apply additional emergency surcharge fees in relation to COVID restrictions from country to country.

Without an excellent package forwarding company, in this post pandemic era, it is nearly impossible to get goods from overseas. Forward2Me is reliable, fast, reasonable, I already had several packages ranged from 10$ to 1000$+ value sent over via F2M. I'm now here writing this review to support good business.
Other forwarders I used in the past were a nightmare and extremely expensive.
I wouldn't hesitate to user Forward2Me again or recommend their service to others.
