Did I get my item(s)? Yes.
Was it easy? Enough, I guess.
Was it as I'd hoped? Barely.
Was it disingenuous? You bet.
Here's how their bait and switch works. On my UK - Australia ship.
Your items arrive and will be opened. They they are ready to ship! No, no actually they aren't. But they will sit there until you provide documentation for approval. Even when it's IN the box. They will then "verify" this information which will take a couple of days. Then it's ready to ship! No... no actually it isn't. You won't have the choice to ship it until - as they claim - it is ELIGIBLE to be 'repacked'. What does this mean? Well, it basically means they aren't going to ship your item, until you pay them, a COMPULSORY FEE, to repack it. Even though they leave it in the same packaging, you received it in. This isn't an option, as they claim. "To help save money and combine shipments". It is MANDATORY. For every package. A fee they will take, or they won't ship your item. But THEN. It is ready to ship!!! Oh no no, don't be silly. THEN. They put it into a QUEUE to be "repacked". And as they do it to EVERY package they receive, it will sit in a queue of hundreds. Maybe even thousands of packages. For another few days. But THEN, are we finally ready to ship?
Oh nope, nope. They will give you a freight quote range, ranging from reasonable to absurd. Whilst limiting what options and carriers you can choose. Then of course, this isn't an option range, at all. Once you select, the ONLY shipping method they will offer, it will automatically GIVE YOU the MOST EXPENSIVE absurd pricing quote that there is.
OK. But surely. Now. We're ready to ship?
HAH! Don't be silly. You then receive an INVOICE. For the shipping. To pay, with their fees on TOP, before it will ship. And once you PAY IT. It will take another few days of processing, before it actually ships.
And even then, for the absurd price you are paying for shipping, they will not offer nor honour, what the service actually is. IE: DHL Express International is 3 - 5 days carrier service. They will charge MORE than the DHL Express International rate, but knock it back to 7 - 10 days. Which is not what the carrier service is priced for. And of course, it'll be another few days, before DHL actually pick it up from F2M. And put it into their system.
So, all told, after a good few weeks of waiting from purchase to delivery. I did FINALLY get my item from DHL - which was delivered on a Sunday, kindly, following my delivery instructions. However. My 60GBP item, an artwork, cost 232GBP to ship. And didn't leave F2M for 5 days. I was happy to eat the cost just to get the item. But to call them transparent, good, and cost effective or even competitive would be ridiculous. If you had something that was even slightly heavy (this was only 3 kg) or large, you could be paying insane fees to ship it, or they simply will hold it hostage. O K as a one-off, would not use again.

The delivery was seamless but could have included more updates. When you live in a country full of thieves you would like assurance by your suppliers.
I selected DHL for delivery and they and the forward2me handover were super!
Will use again, and again!!

Many thanks for your lovely feedback.
We are sorry that you feel dissatisfied with the shipping prices that were offered to you for your package to your address in the USA.
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 with the couriers.
We also 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 have looked into your recent FedEx Connect shipment and we are confident you had been offered the most cost effective courier service option for your package at the time of shipping. I can see that you did not opt to request a repack service for your vinyl's prior to shipping but there would have been little volume or excess space that could have been saved on the original package and a combine and repack service would have not altered the original shipping prices offered to you based on the chargeable weight of your package. The FedEx Connect service is the lower priced service with FedEx and this service states estimated transit times of up to 4 business days. Please be aware that transit times stated by the couriers should only be seen as an estimate and the transit times stated only commence from the date of dispatch not from the date of payment. From the original FedEx tracking for your shipment, this was collected from our UK warehouse on Wednesday 31st May, please also note that business days do not include the weekends (Saturday and Sunday), your shipment had arrived in the USA by Friday 3rd June and was successfully delivered to your address by Monday 6th June in the afternoon. We feel the delivery service for your package with the FedEx Connect service was really fast and no unnecessary long delays incurred for your shipment through the network.
I hope the information I have provided to you is useful, we hope this issue will not deter you from using our services again in the future and that you will reconsider your current rating of our service.
Please do not hesitate to contact our customer experience team from info@forward2me.com if you do have any further questions or concerns and we will be more than happy to assist you .
Kind Regards
Hayley
