My husband ordered a gift for my birthday (Decmber 12th) on the 28th of november.
The vendor is in London, we are french, living in Paris.

It's been twice now that this parcel has been "lost" by OCS !!!
3 weeks that they have it at their warehouse, 2 weeks that the tracking says the same "Consignment details verified" and we've got no words from them for all this time !!!
Now I see their rating, I'm really not surprised!
My birthday present is ruined and I doubt I have any chance of seeing it before christmas for now...
Thank you OCS !!!

Edit after reply from "OCS" :
You know what?! I wrote to your support way before writing my review here, and you where faster replying to me here....

Very bad service

I ordered a package on November 22 on Boxraw.com and it said 5-12 days. I have been waiting for 12 days but I still have 0 information on the tracking of the package !!! On the OCS tracking website it saying ''Shipment prepared by customer'' since November 23.
Im so stressed because its a gift and I really want it to arrive before Christmas. I just want to know where it is... I have absolutely no idea.

Awful service.

Awful service.
I ordered some items on Amazon.it from a British seller. The items were expected to be delivered in 2/3 days. Now, after 10 days, the parcel seems to be stuck in Belgium since 5 days. I tried to contact both the seller and the shipment company, but none of them has ever answered.
Terrible experience, I wouldn’t recommend it at all.
I just hope that the parcel will arrive quickly, even if I’m very doubtful

This is the second time this company…

This is the second time this company has been charged with delivering my order and the second time it has not arrived.

My order was placed on the 25.10.18 today is 30.10.18, the delivery has not arrived from Birmingham!!

Having contacted An Post (local post) they confirmed , no parcel with my details was received.

As mentioned above, the second time experiencing this company, I will definitely think twice before ordering from a company whose carrier is OCS Worrldwide

I ordered a dress from a company I have ordered from twice before but this is the first time I am aware of them using this company for deliveries. My package spent 4 days God knows where before it finally arrived in Ireland. I would seriously reconsider buying from that company again if they continue to use this shipping company.

Hi Anita,

Sorry you feel this way. Would you be able to give us the tracking number so we can see what happened?

Many Thanks,

Placed order on August 1st

UPDATE: the package did indeed arrive within 7 working days.

I would highly advise however that the tracking give more frequent updates. There was literally no updates from the time it was packaged until the time I got a text that the package was waiting at the post office this morning.

No updates on my order

I made my order with I SAW IT FIRST on Friday August 3,2018. I live in the US so this was my first time using OCS. I got an unpdate on my order on Monday saying and I quote “
06 Aug 2018 01:26 Processed for Worldwide postal despatch. Please expect delivery within the next 7 working days” . It also says I have one piece when I ordered five. I have not got an update on my order since that Monday. It is now Thursday night and I am wondering if I made a mistake by trusting this service of delivery. I did some research and found out they work with USPS but I even tried searching my order on there and it still didn't work. I have decided to wait a week before I decide to email them about my order not being updated on it’s location and the error on the number of pieces I ordered.

Hi Alana,
Thanks for your feedback, unfortunately I SAW IT FIRST is an un-tracked service. This would be why you only got a confirmation of dispatch and then nothing thereafter. If you do not receive your items or an update by the end of the 7 days please call our customer service department on (+44) 0207 640 3900 or e-mail customerservices@ocsworldwide.co.uk and they will be more than happy to help.
Thanks :)

I failed to receive an item ordered…

I failed to receive an item ordered from a well-known British online clothing store that uses OCS WORLDWIDE. The tracking information stated that it was delivered at a date and a time when I was at home. I can say without any doubt that no courier came to my house and I am very curious to know where they ditched the order. Luckily the company refunded the goods I never received since they were no longer in stock and no replacement was possible. Personally I find the service disgraceful and I will notify the company that I want a different delivery option before ordering again.

Great service!

I have received few parcels via OCS, and have only good things to say.

In my experience OCS is the only courier in Finland who calls customers before delivery, and delivers the parcels to work if youre not home during the normal working hours.

Thank you!

" BRITAIN'S LEADING SUPPLIER OF NEWSPAPER SUBSCRIPTIONS"

If you think the service OCS provide for parcel post leaves much to be desired, you should try their performance with the delivery of newspaper
subscriptions !

I have been a reader of the Telegraph newspaper for a period of at least 50 years in all its various printed forms including daily, Sunday and weekly editions.For the past 40 years I have been working abroad in such far flung places as East Africa, India, Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand where the newspaper has been available from street vendors within a few days of printing. I now live in SW France, and rely on OCS for the timely delivery of The Sunday Telegraph.

Their service which was initially reasonably efficient, is now pitifully poor.

Since renewing my subscription in March 2017 their performance has deteriorated to the extent that several editions arrive in my postbox on the same day (the record is three), and at least four editions have not arrived at all. Perhaps worst of all, it is not uncommon to find that the supplement containing the crosswords is missing !

I do have to say that my complaints to OCS have been met with great courtesy. The postal standard of my subscription (First Class post) was upgraded to a superior level free of charge for the reminder of its tenure, an upgrade that I will have to pay for if I renew my subscription in 2018.

Unfortunately, having started out well for the first few weeks the upgraded service is proving to be as unreliable as ever.

Good afternoon,

Really sorry to hear you have some rather distressing issues with our service.

My colleague Kirstie Simmons has emailed you today to launch the investigation into this.

Kind regards

Liars and cowboys that essentially steal money because the public is misinformed.

I was receiving a parcel from abroad.

They calculated charges Import Duty. This was correct as they can't cheat this and it is a declared amount as on the paperwork.

They also add on 20% VAT but here's the thing you need to watch out for. They make up the carriage charges. They lie through their teeth. There is no paperwork or trail supporting any carriage charges that they add on.

I ended up paying more for the entire parcel in Duty + VAT then the parcel was worth.

I would suggest to anyone having the same problem to send them an official complaint and then to complain to the Ombudsman.

Don't let them get away with this. They're breaking the law.

Hidden costs

As per previous reviews, we have been subject to additional charges via Parcel2Go after selecting OCS as our carrier for items to the USA. If OCS know that there is an issue with the P2G site not calculating the correct price, then why are they still appearing? This problem needs rectifying ASAP before even more negative reviews are posted. Our company selected OCS as our carrier from those offered by P2G as the shipping costs were favourable. We have now had to stop selling larger items to our customers in the US as it is no longer the cost-effective route we originally thought. Misrepresentation.......

I got overcharged although delare the correct size and weight

I send a parcel 84904015221 to usa via ocs, BUT i recieve an email saying parcel weighed/measured more than was declared when it was booked on paecel2go website. The parcel was declared as 5.00kg, and size 47cmX47CMX16CM on the parcel2go website, the price is 23.05 via OCS.I actually weight the parcel in the postoffice, and it is definitely 4.8kg.

Ocs reply with the actual size of the parcel, which is 47 x 46 x 15 , it is exactly the same as I declare on parcel 2go website!!!!!! if you do not believe, you can check the record of my parcel. How you can overcharge me if I am tellling the correct weight and size of the parcel!!!

Today I use 5kg, size 47 x 46 x 15 to get quote on parcel2go website, it still shows 23.05 poundsby ocs

I think it is an technical issue between parcel 2go and OCs since parcel2go does not work out the correct weight!

It is not my fault since I declare the correct size and weight !

I send a parcel to USA via OCS

I send a parcel to USA via OCS with tracking P2G45556503 , they lie about the weight and ask for a surcharge of 28 pounds, which is more than the cost of the original price 23 pounds. They did not provide any evidence to justify the surcharge at all.although i weigh the parcel at the local post office in advance. I will also report this issue to trading standard!!

But I have declear in the parcel2 go website the correct size, which 47x47x16cm, 5kg and pay the correct postage!!! How you can overcharge me if I am tellling the correct weight and size of the parcel!!! TOday I use 5kg, size 47 x 46 x 15 to get quote on parcel2go website, it still shows 23.05 pound?

Dear Suiseng Lee,

We have had to increase the charge as the item was rather large and bulky
All international courier companies use a formula for calculating the size of items. Your delivery was actually over 6kgs in volumetric weight as the dimensions were 47 x 46 x 15
Apologies that no one informed you of this, we incorrectly assumed that Parcel 2 Go would have let you know.
Please do call us if we can help you in the future with sizes and weights before you ship.
Kindest regards
OCS Worldwide

Unfortunately it seems that the P2G website does not update volumetric. We will endevour to request this change from them.

Again please accept our apology

From hand holding us through the beginning of the process to following up to see how they can aid us in growing our business and becoming more efficient, we feel their ‘nothing is too much trouble’ attitude is perfect for our ongoing partnership. OCS really has been instrumental in the growth of our company.

Don't use these cowboys

Lied about the weight of my box, it remained in Heathrow for over a month, instead of being delivered to Oklahoma City.
This company have no backbone , and will be shut down soon , I am contacting trading standards first thing tomorrow.
They have no phone number to contact them , they hide away from their customers .Ignore all emails , they are a disgrace.
DO NOT use this company ,YOU WILL regret it if you do use them .
