Do not forward luggage with this company

We sent a suitcase of personal belongings from Heathrow airport to our hotel in France. Excess Baggage did all the paperwork and now French Customs via DHL are demanding a further €800 before they will release our suitcase. Excess baggage have provided no assistance and cannot be contacted. We are now having to buy replacement clothes and ski gear for our holiday. Very expensive mistake using this company.

Indeed a 5 star

Indeed a 5 star. When you cone to the Stansted airport, there are 2 wrap stations, make sure to look for the one where Gaby is stationed. Very accommodating!

Fantastic advice and customer support…

Fantastic advice and customer support from Mohan Poudel and team. I had to get luggage delivered to another airport and then stored for a few days. Dependable and communicative through the whole process.

Under performing

Fighting to get my Apple AirPods back from Lost Property (Excess Baggage) at Helsinki Airport. They’re geolocating to the premises for over a week and are being used by someone. Very disappointed by the complete lack of engagement - am escalating until I get them back.

Charged twice and left feeling scammed

First time using Excess Baggage at London Bridge and had positive expectations after booking and paying online.

When I dropped my bag off, the staff member incorrectly asked for my QR code and scanned it.

When I returned to collect my bag, the different staff member on duty told me the QR code had already been claimed, and forced me to pay again in order to access my bag.

This was despite me explaining to him what had happened, showing evidence I had paid online and my bag still being there, clearly unclaimed until now.

When I challenged this, Security were called. It was a stressful and unpleasant experience, particularly as a lone female traveller.

There is no manager available at weekends to resolve issues, and I found today (Monday) that there are no customer service staff available, the manager is working from home, and appears to be ignoring emails.

I would have expected the issue to be resolved onsite on Saturday, however the staff member told me he would be made to pay for my case if I didn't pay again.

If this is true, this did not seem to me to be a fair way to run a company for either customers or staff.

I will use alternative services in future.

Indifferent service and far too costly

Being honest, and newly unemployed, I was appalled to be charged £20 for two bags (£10 per bag) and for just 3 hours' storage but there was no way I'd be taking my suitcase up Calton Hill to its café. I kept two lighter handbags on my person. In London the last quote I saw recently was £6 per bag.
The first staff were rather indifferent. There was a wait both when dropping off and picking up. And I was relieved nothing had fallen out of a shopping bag as they didn't seem to take the most care.
The man who dealt with the return was much more friendly and professional but overall this was disappointing.
