“When I saw that the UK store of a famous French brand had an item that was sold out everywhere else I decided to give Forwardvia a try- I had only used a Japanese shopping service before so I was quite nervous to use another shopping service I am unfamiliar with. Forwardvia was surprisingly easy to use and there are constant updates about your order with pictures included which were helpful. If you are somehow unable to order an item yourself they do offer a personal shopper and if you have any additional wishes or instructions you can make a request (for a small fee). My order arrived quite quickly and overall I am satisfied with my experience with Forwardvia. I'd use their services again when the occasion arises.”

“The service works fine when there are no issues, but when there are then the customer service team is more interested with demonstrating the accuracy of their procedures rather than fixing the issue. In this case, the international delivery details included an address and a phone number but the phone number was not used by Royal Mail so the package was unrecoverable. Your customer service team thought that was not their problem.”

Thanks for taking the time to review our services however I'm sorry to hear that you are dissapointed with our service and the shipping option you've chosen. We can see our support team are in contact and assisting you. The package was despatched on 18 Oct, you contacted us on 6 Nov, the shipping option states delivery can take 8 weeks. We are unable to see anywhere that says or suggest the package is not recoverable. Kindly allow time for delivery. We can confirm the phone number and email address were submitted electronically when the shipping order is placed. This will not appear on the shipping label, as explained in our email. It is compulsory to include phone number and email for international shipping, else we will not be able to ship it. These contact details are made available by Royal Mail, should destination local post request it. However, even if contact details are available, local post have no obligation to contact receiver depending on individual local postal policy. A number of shipping options from budget without tracking to fully tracked, express delivery were available to choose. The shipping option you've chosen is without tracking, hence no further information is provided by the carrier once it is despatched. Unfortunately, there is no way to know the status of the delivery, not even from the carrier. I hope this information helps going forward. Feel free to get in touch with our friendly customer service if you encounter any issue using our service.
