Good Afternoon Elizabeth,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to see that you feel disappointed with your experience, and we would like to clarify.

Our records show that on 13 October we received your deposit and sent confirmation advising that full documentation and payment would be required prior to collection being booked. Following this, cartons were delivered to you on 17 October to allow you to complete your packing.

We understand that you later advised of an update on your shipment and additional cartons were requested for a separate consignment. However, we do not have a confirmed collection date on file, nor evidence that the outstanding documentation and balance were received to enable us to schedule collection. As per our standard process, collection cannot be arranged until all required paperwork and payments are in place.

From our records, it appears we were awaiting further confirmation and documentation from you in order to proceed. We certainly would not intentionally delay a shipment, and we regret if there has been any misunderstanding or lack of communication along the way.

We would welcome the opportunity to resolve this for you. Please contact our office directly so we can review what may still be outstanding and assist you in arranging collection as soon as possible.
Kindest regards

Poor quality service & additional charges at my expense

I contacted PSS for an air freight quote before the Christmas holidays. I was not informed of potential delays because of the holidays. I paid PSS International Removals a significant premium for their air freight service because I was assured delivery would take an estimated 14 days. I paid 1764 GBP promptly on the day the payment was requested.

My belongings were collected on 22 December. Part of the consignment arrived, but one item — a chair — was not forwarded. I was later told it had been rejected because it was not wrapped or boxed correctly.

What makes this particularly unacceptable is that I was charged an additional fee specifically for the handling and packaging of that chair. If PSS are professional removal specialists, and I paid them to package the item properly for international air freight, how was it not prepared to the required standard in the first place?

As a result of this error, the shipment documentation no longer matches the items received. Customs clearance has been delayed, and I have been left without access to my belongings. This has caused real disruption to my work and daily life.

Worse still, because no one is accepting liability for the packaging failure, I am now being told I must pay an additional £935 to have the chair delivered separately. After already paying a premium for air freight and additional handling fees, I am effectively being asked to pay again to correct a mistake that was not mine.

I paid for speed, competence and professionalism. Instead, I have experienced delays, documentation errors, additional unexpected costs, and a service that now resembles sea freight timelines — at air freight prices.

I am still awaiting a meaningful proposal for refund or compensation.

Based on my experience, I would strongly advise others to think very carefully before paying a premium for this service.

Good Morning Nikos,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly understand the frustration and disruption this situation has caused, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify the steps we’ve taken to resolve this matter.

I want to acknowledge the inconvenience caused by the chair not being shipped with the rest of your belongings. Upon review, we found that the chair was not adequately boxed for air freight, as per DHL's requirements. Although we arranged for export wrapping of your office chair, DHL has the right to refuse items they deem improperly packed, which led to the chair being returned. We were not made aware of this refusal until it was flagged by DHL and then communicated to us.

We do acknowledge that the process has been slower than we would have liked. We have been working to get the chair to you as quickly as possible, but due to the size and volumetric weight, we were unable to offset the charges from the original shipment against the additional delivery. As you’ve now agreed, the chair will be dispatched separately, and we’ve ensured that everything is in place for it to be delivered to you.

We understand that the additional cost is frustrating, especially given that you were initially charged for packaging and air freight. However, the discrepancy in dimensions and weights was something DHL raised when finalising the shipment.
Kindest regards

Disaster service, I wouldn't say 'specialists'

I've had a nightmare experience.

I provided PSS with the weight and dimensions of my 3 parcels for my quote. Once they had picked them up they said I had to pay an additional £173 as the parcels weren't within 'guideline volumetric weight dimensions' ?? What's the point in providing all the necessary measurements, indicating the contents of the parcels themselves to still be held hostage with no explanation as to why there was an increase.....

My boxes arrived all torn and squashed with my 2 bikes all scratched to pieces and screws missing with one having a problem with the wheel. Over the phone the handler was appalled with the delivery service and aplogetic but then followed up with a robotic email that had been run past her hierarchy pointing to t&cs and fine print that I agreed to when paying the deposit.

For now the blame has been deflected to DHL and I've been reminded "there is always a risk when transporting goods internationally".

Well, not so much a premium service in my eyes...
Shame I couldn't add the photos for visibility

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about your negative experience with PSS. We always strive to provide a high level of service, and I regret that we have not met your expectations on this occasion.
I understand your frustration regarding the additional charge for volumetric weight, however as noted during the quoting process, we provide an estimate based on the information you supply. Once the items are physically measured and weighed at our depot, we sometimes find discrepancies that require adjustments to the original quote. This is a standard procedure and was outlined in the terms and conditions you agreed to prior to confirming the booking.

Regarding the damage to your parcels, we are equally disappointed that your items were not delivered in the condition we would expect. Please note that the claims process is designed to ensure any damage is investigated thoroughly. The £50 admin fee for claims is mentioned upfront and was highlighted when you submitted your valuation form. We understand it’s frustrating, but this is a necessary step to process and assess claims properly.
I also want to address your comments regarding our communication. While I understand that our response may have seemed formal, please know that we do take such matters seriously and aim to resolve them fairly.
Kindest regards
