I was extremely happy with the customer service I received in relation to a difficulty I was having with getting a package shipped from the U.S to Ireland. Jamie in the warehouse in Wilmington in Delaware was extremely patient, helpful, and courteous in helping me get the issue resolved.
I have always found Forward2me customer service staff to be extremely polite and helpful whenever I have needed assistance.

In addition to numerous great, straightforward transactions, I had a tricky situation where a pair of sunglasses shipped from the EU to the USA using Forward2me got stuck in customs, requiring an FDA approval form. Joyce from the UK Warehouse was able to help me with the forms I needed and submit them to FedEx on my behalf. Forward2me has been the best forwarding service I've used!

We really appreciate your feedback and are happy to hear that Joyce and our team could help with the customs process, ensuring everything went smoothly.

J'ai pu me faire livrer un parfum contenant de l'alcool depuis le Japon. La plupart des proxy n'acceptent pas de livrer ce genre de produits en raison des risques et des règlementations spéciales pour le transport, donc j'ai été soulagée de pouvoir le faire avec Forward2me. Le service client a répondu rapidement à mes questions et l'expédition depuis leur entrepôt a été très rapide également. Je recommande vivement.

Decided to go with them after reading reviews. First shipment from Japan was not bad, item did arrive, and wasn't damaged, props to them for that. Gave 4 stars because they said they shipped the item one day, but DHL said they didn't pick it up from them until 2 days later. Overall, not bad, shipment options are pricey, but get you your items faster than other options.

Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear your first shipment from Japan arrived safely and undamaged.

A sad demise of once one of the best forwarding companies.

I have been using F2me for over 4 years and always had extremely pleasant experiences with them. Their rates were reasonable and their customer service was very good as well.

Unfortunately in my latest experience with them, I have been subject to harassment and extortion by their malpractice and sheer greed.

A shipment of mine required no need to have "Combine & Re-pack" and usually easily goes through the Registered Post option suddenly did not have that option. Upon contacting them, I received several automated responses which were the same repeated again and again. After almost 3 weeks of this racket, in the end I had to succumb to their extortion and pay for the Combine and Repack with the cheapest FedEx option (quoted around 40-45 GBP). To my surprise and shock they conveniently added another 20 GBP for a total of a whopping 68.30 GBP for an item that was worth 10 and wasn't very large at all.

My issue with this entire experience was their lack of care or attention and their blatant extortion practices. In the past I never had any issues with their service but, now they are 100% fraudulent and can't be trusted.

Such a shame to beg for money like this.
forward2me

This was my first time using Forward2Me to ship a high-value item from the UK to the United States, and I couldn’t have asked for better service. Joyce was amazing — quick to respond, clear in her guidance, and she went the extra mile to update the commercial invoice and send details to DHL for smooth customs clearance.

If you’re shipping internationally through the UK warehouse, I highly recommend mentioning Joyce. She made the process seamless and stress-free, and I’ll definitely use Forward2Me again.

I had an incredibly frustrating experience with Forward2Me. I sent a complete table to their warehouse for repacking and international shipping. I selected “Combine & Repack” for everything in my account and was told the shipment was ready to go. When the delivery arrived, half the table was missing, including the legs, hardware, and instructions, and no one had informed me anything was left behind. It took over two weeks of slow, back-and-forth responses to get an answer, and the missing parts had been sitting in their warehouse the entire time. I was then told I had to pay extra to get them shipped, even though the mistake was not mine. In the end, I paid just to get it over with, but this whole process has been a nightmare. Very poor communication, no accountability, and very slow to resolve mistakes. I will not be using them again. UPDATE: Forward2Me acknowledged the mistake with my shipment and refunded the cost of the second delivery. I appreciate that the team followed through with a fair resolution.

The process for shipping to Forward2Me has been relatively seamless, apart from the payment verification at the end. I was impressed with the affordable rates, and after ordering something to the Germany warehouse getting the parcel to the shipping phase was simple. However, after paying the shipping fees via PayPal I received an email that looked like a Phishing scam from the Forward2Me customer support. It wasn't explicitly clear that I should trust this email from reading through the FAQs, in which there was only one page that mentioned the PayPal verification issue. To top it off, the email was written in somewhat broken English, and I was asked for my Passport/Government ID and proof of purchase, which raised major alarm bells.

To summarise, I think the process with Forward2Me is great, but you guys need to formalise verifying a PayPal purchase (if the email on the account is different) through your site, instead of asking someone via email to send pictures of their ID, which blatantly looks like a Phishing scam
forward2me
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m glad to hear that most of your shipment process went smoothly and that you found our rates affordable.

I’m sorry that the PayPal verification request caused concern and appeared suspicious. I completely understand how an unexpected email asking for sensitive information could raise red flags, especially when it’s not clearly explained in our FAQs. Your feedback is valid, and we take it seriously.

The reason we request additional verification is to protect both our customers and our business when the PayPal email address differs from the one registered with Forward2Me. However, we recognise that the current process could look like a phishing attempt.

We are already reviewing how we handle this to make it more secure and transparent. This includes:

Moving document submission to a secure section of your Forward2Me account, rather than via email

Updating our FAQs and payment confirmation pages to clearly explain when and why verification is needed

Improving the clarity and professionalism of our communications

Thank you again for highlighting this issue.

Update (2025-Sep-2): Update (Interim):

Forward2me have refunded me in full, which I appreciate. I also believe I’ve found a bug in their shipping calculator that may explain part of the confusion. I’ve reported this back to their customer service team and I’m waiting for confirmation.

Once they acknowledge and confirm, I’ll update this review again with the details — hopefully this will prevent other customers from running into the same issue.

--------
Here’s exactly how my experience with forward2me went (Parcel ID: US-61-1753878944484100):
1. Step 1 – Shipping calculator: I entered the exact dimensions and weight into their own calculator — FedEx to Hungary showed around $60, with cheaper options starting at $28.
2. Step 2 – Forced repackaging: Once my package arrived, they forced me to repackage it without any proper explanation — only generic copy-paste replies. During this stage, they gave me an “estimated” shipping cost of $84, already about 40% higher than the calculator’s maximum FedEx rate.
3. Step 3 – After repackaging: They claim repackaging is to save cost, but after it was done, the only option left was FedEx at $106 — another 26% increase over the repackaging estimate, and over 75% higher than the calculator’s original FedEx price.

I contacted customer service three separate times to get a specific explanation for this price jump. Every single time, I received the same generic “volumetric weight” explanation — none of which addressed the actual discrepancy between their calculator prices and the final price shown in my account.

At this point, my only “choice” was to either pay the inflated price or have my package destroyed.

This is a very sneaky, misleading, and completely non-transparent pricing tactic. Be warned: once your parcel is in their warehouse, you may be trapped in a pay-or-lose-it scenario.
forward2me
Thank you for your feedback.

We’ve noted that your shipment contains consumer commodities. When using the pricing page, you may have entered the full shipping address and selected Perfume, as these types of goods are categorized under consumer commodities.

Please note that for all consumer commodities, there is an additional fee of $28.75 applied as surcharges for the courier for the US warehouse.

The chargeble weight is the volumetric weight of the goods which is 3.9 lbs.

Here’s the calculation you can use:
Volumetric (dimensional) weight = (L × W × H) / dimensional divisor
For 10 × 8 × 8 in:
Volume = 10 × 8 × 8 = 640 in³
Using a 166 divisor: 640 / 166 = 3.86 lb → 3.9 lb

Couriers use chargeable weight instead of just the actual weight because shipping costs are based not only on how heavy a parcel is, but also on how much space it takes up in the aircraft or vehicle.
Actual weight = 2.15 lbs
Volumetric weight = 3.9 lbs (using 166)


All items classified as Consumer Commodities must be repacked in line with IATA (International Air Transport Association) regulations. This is a mandatory requirement for safe air transport and compliance with international shipping standards.

Because of this, our system automatically enforces repackaging for such goods to ensure they meet the necessary guidelines before shipment.

We appreciate your understanding.

Kind regads,

i'm a full-time traveler and needed items sent to me.

before signing up, i confirmed with their support that they ship to my current location, they said yes. after my package arrived at their facility, they asked for an invoice (which i provided), then my passport, and finally rejected the shipment outright.

it felt like getting hit by a train, lost time, lost money.

i strongly advise avoiding this company.

My last experience wasn't perfect because of the prepaid tax duty policy however I managed to postpay them at door.

The courier at door asked for only 30$

My package arrived in safe and perfect condition.
Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback.

We would like to inform you that, due to repeated issues with duties and taxes being billed back to the shipper when using DAP (Delivered At Place), we will now restrict all FedEx shipments to Saudi Arabia to DDP (Delivered Duties Paid) only, effective immediately. This policy applies to shipments from all our warehouse locations.

We do apologise for any inconvenience.

I entrusted Forward2Me with an express shipment on July 3, 2025, and paid over $400 for fast delivery (4 business days). Three weeks later, the package still hasn't even left their warehouse. They admitted that my parcel was mistakenly sent to another customer — a massive internal error — but since then, they have done absolutely nothing to resolve it.
I've written several official complaints and demanded a refund and compensation. They stopped responding. This is totally unacceptable for a company that claims to offer insured and professional international shipping.
I lost over $1,600 including the item and delivery costs. If you're considering using Forward2Me — DON'T. Their support is unresponsive, and they take no accountability when they mess up.
I will be filing complaints with UK Trading Standards and financial authorities.



UPD (August 2025):
I originally left a 1-star review after my experience with Forward2Me. Eventually, the company tracked down my package — it had mistakenly been sent to Japan instead of Georgia — and they managed to deliver it to me safely after a month’s delay. To their credit, they also refunded the full delivery cost and provided additional compensation for the inconvenience.
While the initial handling of the issue was extremely frustrating, I appreciate that they did ultimately resolve it and made an effort to make things right. For that reason, I am updating my rating from 1★ to 3★.
forward2me
First and foremost, I want to sincerely apologize for the mix-up with your shipment at our US warehouse. We fully understand how frustrating this situation has been, especially given the express service you entrusted us with and the significant costs involved.

Please know that we are taking this matter very seriously. Our team is actively working to improve our processes and ensure this type of internal error does not happen again. We deeply regret the delay and the inconvenience caused by your package being mistakenly sent to another customer.

We acknowledge that our communication with you has fallen short, and for that, I am truly sorry. We value your trust and business, and we are committed to resolving this issue as swiftly as possible. I will personally escalate this case to our senior management to review compensation and the best way to make this right.

Thank you for your patience so far. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our service for all customers.

Gestione vergognosa della mia pratica nonostante ripetuti solleciti. Acquistato ricambi auto in UK avevo deciso di affittarlo a forward2me per semplificare la gestione delle pratiche doganali.
Errore fatale, dopo quasi 3 settimane sto continuando ad inviare email di solleciti con risposte superficiali, probabilmente sono boot.
Mi hanno chiesto 53 Sterline per gestire la pratica, alle quali andranno sommate oneri doganali, eventuali dazi e gestione pratica del corriere.
Probabilmente non pagherò e perderò la merce. VERGOGNA!!!
