“Your service to our Australian home from the UK was faultless. We received our package a day earlier, exactly what we asked you to order for us. Our 12 neighbours and more have your contact info. You’ll hear from us again, thank you.”

“I was skeptical about using (any) third party to take care of a purchase and delivery from Europe to Canada but I'm glad I tried Fowardvia. They were quick to purchase the items on my behalf, and once they received the package sent me pictures to ensure everything looked correct and quickly shipped to my attention. The website was easy to navigate, and payment was a breeze. A lot of reviews were disappointed with the cost but honestly, what do you expect? Especially when you are factoring in conversion and duty fees. Shipping isn't cheap anywhere! Forwardvia was priced fairly and I can't wait to use them again. Thank you to the team for there amazing work!”

Many thanks for taking the time to review our services, however, we are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the price paid. The shipping cost not only includes the transit fees, it includes the use of our UK address, the acceptance, processing, storing, and dispatch of your goods including any export documentation required, and full customer support for tracked services until delivery. The shipping cost depends purely on the weight, dimension, and shipping destination regardless of the item value, which is an industry-standard. Our rates are publicly available on our shipping calculator to enable visitors to check and compare prices. This helps shoppers to decide whether it is worth shipping or check if it is within their budget. We believe we offer the most competitive shipping rates, compared to other UK forwarders. Some forwarders charge lower shipping rates, but then some charge subscription fees, shorter free storage periods, package receiving fees, mail out, and other charges. Including other charges, the total cost can be higher. Feel free to check the shipping and service rates of some other well-known UK forwarding companies. We hope this information helps explain how shipping fees are charged. If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to get in touch. ForwardVia Team

“ForwardVia is efficient. Provides photos and description of items so that if you have multiple items in transit you know which is which. However, it is expensive compared with VPost for basic shipping to Singapore.”

Hi Barbara, Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased to hear you find our service efficient. In regards to our shipping rates, we are sorry to hear that you find our rates are higher than you expected. Our business relies on a handling fee, which is already included in the shipping cost. The price paid for shipping not only includes the transit fees, it includes the use of a UK address, the acceptance, processing, storing, and dispatch of your goods including any export documentation required, and full customer support. Our rates are available on our website shipping calculator to enable visitors to check and compare prices. This helps shoppers to decide whether it is worth shipping or check if it is within their budget. We hope the above explains a bit more about our rates and pricing, we look forward to providing you with our service should you choose to use us again in the future. Have a great day! The ForwardVia Team

“Forwardvia provides top-notch service. I have used Forwardvia so many times and it is perfect. Delivery speed is very fast considering the journey it has to take. Once it reaches the HK warehouse, delivery to AUS address is within 3 days. Amazing!! This service allows me access to so many more products.”

“I have used ForwardVia for consolidating and forwarding packages and had some exchanges with their customer support. I have not used any of their additional services. So far, packages have been sufficiently boxed and sealed (standard service) and quickly dispatched. Customer support has responded in a timely matter. With over 10 packages consolidated into 3 forwarded packages, I have had no issues and can recommend ForwardVia.”
