Shiply Reviews

"No point in contacting the customer support team. They offer NO help. I have been scammed out of £200 because Shiply didn’t vet the transport providers properly. Customer support offer no help and suggest seeking legal advice or calling the police. They are forcing me to take a court action against Shiply to try and recover my money."

"Never pay the Transport Provider money up front. I used 'Weedazza', who wanted £ 300.00 tranfered before delivery.. He then never showed and was unconnectable. Shiply should not have this type of transport provider working for them..Shiply needs to get on top of this problem..he had done it loads of time before"

Hi issa,

Thanks for your review.

I am sorry that you feel this way, however I feel you may have misunderstood the the Shiply platform.

Shiply is an auction based platform, and therefore we do not allow users and transport providers to communicate outside of the bidding process and until a bid has been accepted.

I think you will find that this is how most auction based platforms operate, and for good reason.

If communications were open prior to accepting a quote from a transport provider there may be exchanges of personal and private information, which could potentially open the platform to fraud and unwarranted exchanges which would be unsecured.

Once a quote has been accepted you are free to communicate with your chosen transport provider as much as possible.

I hope this has clarified the issue for you.

Kind Regards,
Anne

"Used a courier via Shiply who broke the chair I had bought from ebay. Accepted liability and were supposed to be insured but then failed to refund even though they promised within messages. I have no comeback as Shiply allows cash in hand payment methods so I cannot get my money back apart from the deposit paid via PayPal which I have submitted a claim for. Do not pay via cash using Shiply as they do not intervene in disputes with couriers that use this site. Also will automatically give couriers positive feedback if you do not give your own feedback within a specific time frame which if you do not check emails daily you would not know. So some feedback scores for bidders will be skewed."

"(From BC, Canada) Please avoid using Shiply if at all possible. While their rates are certainly cheaper than other couriers offering car shipping, their website/bookings are incredibly misleading, and honestly not worth the extra savings. When creating a shipping booking (for a car), you need to have at least 3 days available for pickup. I made a booking well in advance, and paid a deposit on the total I was given. Their website states you will be contacted at least 24 hours before from your shipping courier. At the end of the second day with no word from anyone, I reached out to Shiply. They responded (early the next morning ~3:30am) saying they would send an urgent message to the courier. The next day (last day available for pick up), I still had not heard from anyone and continued to reach out to Shiply to no avail. They never supplied me with contact information for the company supposed to doing the shipping, never gave me notice that the shipment was not going to happen, and only got back to me after the pickup was supposed to have been completed. They said that this was not their fault, but the shipping company’s, and that my only solution was to make a new booking. While I understand that they operate as a third-party, the time in between answers was long (apparently they operate out of London) and they did not provide any assistance with making alternate arrangements, or with making a new booking. While I did receive my deposit back, I made multiple attempts (during and after pick up window) to receive the shipping companies contact information as I was wanting to contact them directly. They refused, until more than a week later, saying that they no longer had this information, (despite them saying they had contacted them for me!!). They were very clear in their messages to me that they have no liability as this agreement was between me and this transport company and they were purely a neutral venue, however they never supplied me with even the name of this company that my agreement was apparently with. Despite me asking multiple, multiple times, they did not, and the only contact I did have (Shiply) refused to come up with any solution. In the meantime, I had to make a new shipment, and pay a new deposit. AGAIN, near the end of my pickup window, I had to contact Shiply as I had not been contacted by the shipping company. Shiply responded saying that this shipment was not guaranteed and if I needed this delivered I should make alternate arrangements? What? On the website it clearly states that when you want to make your shipment, you can “Book Now”. After inputting all your contact information, addresses, and payment information, you pay your deposit, see your total price, and then your shipment shows that it has been received and says that you will hear from your shipping provider 24 hours before. At no time does this specify that this is not a guarantee, and on 2 separate occasions, Shiply failed to reach out to me before the expiration of my “scheduled” pick up dates. Once I finally heard back from the courier on my second consecutive booking, the company reached out via email (less than 24hrs before) saying that both my pick up and delivery addresses were not accessible for their trucks. While I realize this is not necessarily Shiplys fault- both of those addresses were made with my original booking with Shiply as they advertise "door to door" service. So less than a day before my pickup, I had to scramble to make alternate arrangements for both the pickup and delivery locations. Working with Shiply was a huge headache, between the misleading website, extremely unhelpful customer service, failure to deliver on their service, and huge hassle they created for me whilst in the middle of move- is why I would absolutely never recommend to work with them. Despite the lower rates, their lack of transparency, appropriate communication, and unwillingness to follow through on their services ultimately cost me significantly more money. There was much time wasted, and between the money necessary to make alternate arrangements multiple times in limited time periods, it was filled with much worry and disappointment, and was not at all worth it."

"Falsche Versprechungen, die Kosten wären wesentlich preiswerter, da Unternehmen leere Ladefläche nutzen können..... Für zwei Motorräder von Nähe Nürnberg nach Korsika (nur die Mopeds!) wurden 4000.-- Euro veranschlagt. Die Spedition war sehr bemüht, hat auch sofort geantwortet, aber die Versprechung der Seite ist nicht in Ordnung. Sehr schade. Wieder einer, der nur absahnen will."

"Won't be using Shiply in future. Paid over £200 to a provider that was a fraudster. Shiply failed to inform me that they had suspended said provider the day before collection of vehicle by them was due. Left with having to chase provider for a refund as Shiply washed their hands of all responsibility. Contacting Trading Standards to discuss - appalling service. In my opinion - don't go near them..."

"I will never use this company again, organised for a Transport company to pick up vehicle Job didnt get done, took my deposit. Very disapointed wasted my time waited a week no response from anyone, very misleading company would not reccomend to anyone! If you want to see honest reviews take a look further on Google. looked more into this company and they are not as reliable, people are not getting there items picked up or delivered to them especially the vehicles. NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER, I dont usually write reviews in this case i felt i needed to let people know you are better off not relying on this company for Transport services."
