Amazing service. They saved me when Royal Mail shut down international shipping. Delivered all my parcels to the States in just over a week and everything was fully trackable. Will be continuing to use them for International Postage :)

Whenever there’s a problem (which is often) this company has got to have some of the worst customer service reps I’ve ever come across. They literally don’t care and they make it clear they’re not going to go out of their way to help you. Shockingly rude - I’d give them a zero stars if that was an option.

I was very impressed with the prompt and efficient way in which my enquiry was handled by your agent Vanessa Mills. Due to a delivery issue my package was returned to the depot in Germany for it to be dispatched back to the UK. At every stage of the process Ms Mills kept me fully informed via email and telephone. Without doubt she delivered the best customer service experience which exceeded my expectations , an exemplar of how all customer services provision shoud be conducted , and it is for that reason I will be using your company again in the near future. Thank You. Mel de Lasti.

Beware, do not use it you value your items. I sent a package with transglobal on a next day delivery service. Paid for a premium service to make sure there are no issues. Further to that I paid additional insurance fees to cover the item as it was valuable. This item was due to be delivered on the 22nd. Its was not and has not since then. The last scan for the item on tracking was arrived at destination depot on the 22/12 and never updated since then. Clearly this was stolen by a member of staff. I have spent many hours and countless emails communicating with transglobal and it is clear they have no intention of resolving this issue. Excuse after excuse. Many times I was told that the item would go out for delivery but that never happened. Even worse when I asked for compensation and to be reimbursed for the lost item in on of the emails I receive the following response: "we can review this for compensation once this has been delivered.” Basically what they are saying is that as long as it has not been delivered I will not be compensated and so I will never be reimbursed under the insurance. What kind of backward policy is that? The whole purpose of taking out insurance is to cover you for the full value in the case of loss or theft. Transglobal have not delivered, nor have they returned the item to me. I have not been paid back under the insurance either. I am £1309 out of pocket plus on top of that the cost of shipping and insurance paid to them plus countless waited hours trying to get them to resolve this issue without success. Looking at previous reviews I see this now seems to be a regular occurrence at transglobal. Be aware and avoid them at all costs!

I have had 17 parcels go missing recently. I have now been told I cannot claim for some even though I first required within 30 days of collection. This company continually fobs me off to delay me being able to claim. Avoid this company else it will cost your business

Spurious overweight charges without any evidence Habit of sending additional handling charges from DPD without ever providing evidence, no mention of what the parcel weight was or pictures.

One star, only because no stars is not an option. Quite cheap but there is a reason. Unless you have a package which you don't mind getting lost and never arriving at its destination, I recommend you avoid this company. More details of the painful experience: They didn't collect from the London pick up as agreed as they failed to pass pick up details to the driver, which meant I had to take my envelope containing important papers to their drop point which lost a day. They then lost the envelope which I only found out about when I asked the recipient in New York if they had received it. When I phoned to ask where the envelope was I was told DHL had lost it. It turns out TransGlobal is a freight forwarder which means they don't actually do any deliveries, they just get a lot of packages together and use volume to get a discount from a proper courier company like DHL. It then took almost a month before they accepted that the envelope was lost. Apparently they have to give DHL time to look for it. Their excuse for the time it took was that Christmas came in the middle of all of this. They didn't accept any responsibility for losing the package. I had not taken out additional insurance as there was nothing breakable in the envelope, just legal papers which had been notarised at a cost of £270. I did not expect TransGlobal to lose the package. So when it came to compensation I received the standard £50 plus the cost of the freight. Nothing for the additional cost of second notarisations or my time in getting the papers renotarised, or anything for the opportunity cost of the delay. I am reminded of John Ruskin's quotation: There is hardly anything in this world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man's lawful prey. Do yourself a favour. Use a different courier

Customer service representative (Scott) was unhelpful and not humble enough in reply! Incapable to understanding the issue and trying to cover up with general excuses.

As usual, no problems whatsoever; will continue to use Transglobal!

A terrible experience with this company. My 4-5 day shipment took 8 weeks. Little or no help was provided by Transglobal Express. When I said I wasn't happy I was told (very sarcastically) that I should follow their internal complaints procedure. The shipping process is not made clear from the start and the delivery estimates are very inaccurate - but most importantly the customer service is appalling!

Arrived in good time. But the parcel seemed to have been tampered with - opened and closed. Luckily nothing was missing.

First time using this service, and I was extremely impressed! My package was delivered to South Africa from the UK in like 5 days, with multiple updates along the way. Will definitely use them again in future!

Having used Transglobal on two occasions, I can say that their service is excellent! Competitive prices, great and most helpful staff. It has been an absolute joy using their service.

The booking process on the website is simple to understand and if you have any queries you can call the helpline for in-person guidance. Unbeatable prices.

A very efficient service. I placed the order and my parcel was collected less than 2 hours later. I was able to track its journey and it was delivered safely to New Zealand, with my son getting notification of the delivery.

Collection almost a week late. Had to call repeatedly to get the collection done. No exception reporting with their couriers. Bad service. Need better systems as an online broker. Cust service person very polite on phone but kept telling me they don't have manpower to track missed collections. Then told me they only had about 1 missed collection a day..... really?

I paid £26.27 for next day delivery from UK to USA and the item took nearly 3 weeks to get there !! I could have used Royal Mail and that would have been £9.35 and taken 5-10 days. When I emailed about this and asked for the delivery cost to be reimbursed, you ignored me. Not very impressed .
