Many thanks for your feedback.
I'm pleased to hear that you are happy with the overall service however the cost of shipping was more than you would have liked.
The cost of shipping is generally calculated by the amount of space that your shipment occupies, rather than the actual weight. This is called the volumetric weight. All couriers (examples: DHL and TNT) use the volumetric weight to calculate their shipping prices. However, if the actual weight is more than this volumetric weight then the shipping price is calculated using this actual weight.
I see that although your package weighed less than 0.5 kg the actual shipping price was based on the higher volumetric weight. When sellers ship within the UK couriers charge on the actual weight of the goods rather than the volumetric, like they do for overseas shipping. We tend to find that because of this many UK retailers ship in much larger boxes than necessary for the goods enclosed in the package.
For this reason we do offer a combine and repack service, when chosen our warehouse team evaluate the goods inside the package and see if they can reduce the overall size of the package ensuring that the goods can be shipped so they are safe and secure for international transit. This process ensures that the customer obtains the maximum value for shipping. You can find this option from your inbox when you go to ship your packages.
Many customers do look to purchase a number of items then consolidate them into one shipment to ensure they are making the most of our service.
For shipping options, we do usually have some more budget options however due to the limitations for air freight down to the problems related to the pandemic, many of these options aren't viable at the moment. We are hoping that in the coming year as the pandemic passes, we can offer more budget services for our customers.
I hope this information all helps going forward however if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to get in touch with our Customer Service Team.
Kind Regards,
Tracy.

I'm sorry to hear that the packaging on your shipment was poor, I see that you opted for shipping the item in the retailers original packaging, we do try to make goods as safe as possible on dispatch however always recommend that our customers choose the combine and repack service when shipping to ensure that additional packaging is added when required to ensure your goods are safe and secure for international transit.
The combine and repack service is available for you in your inbox, you need to choose the service for the packages you are shipping before going ahead with the ship now button.
I hope this suggestion helps going forward however if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to get in touch with our Customer Services at info@forward2me.com and they will be very happy to assist you further.

Many thanks for your feedback.
I'm sorry to hear that your shipment has been delayed due to an item being classed as dual use in error. It can be difficult for us to determine if an item would be classed as dual use in some circumstances however we need to always ensure that we are sure we can ship your goods legally from the UK.
I do also apologise that the process took a little time, due to the parcel being with our German warehouse it can take time to communicate with them then refer this information back to you. We are working on new communciation systems so we can get answers quicker for our customers so hopefully in the coming year communication will be speedier.
I hope you will continue to use our services going forward and the process will become smoother as we improve our systems.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch with our Customer Service team if you require any further assistance.
Kind Regards,
Tracy.
