International move from Adelaide, SA to Liverpool, Merseyside

Great price, safe for valuables

Sent 3 boxes and a guitar internationally from Australia to the UK. Provided with the boxes by the company (very durable, better than the ones I had bought prior at Bunnings) and my things arrived safely in 3 months without any issues. No broken glass (I had packed a lot of delicate candle holders) and guitar was in perfect condition. Very happy with the service.

International move from Melbourne, VIC to Guildford, Surrey

Made a big move a lot less stressful

Seven Seas were brilliant, very clear and prompt, easy to contact and surprisingly cheap. I actually regretted only sending two boxes with them rather than three when moving to the UK from Australia. Would absolutely recommend them. Moving internationally is very stressful and they made it so much easier.

International move from , UK to , GRE

Stay away, deadful performance and terrible customer service.

The big thing you worry about when sending all your possessions off with some man in a van is whether you'll ever see them again, and whether they'll be damaged on the way.

With Seven Seas you don't have to worry about this! They'll most likely never even show up to collect from you in the first place (but they'll make sure to charge you regardless).

From shocking customer service, rude and unpleasant staff, misleading websites and hidden charges, Seven Seas has everything you could want in a moving company.

Seven Seas is never wrong! It is always the customers fault when things don't work out. And they'll add extra charges for everything they have to fix for their stupid customers.

Of course, Seven Seas staff are very busy (writing excellent reviews for themselves) and can't be expected to answer questions or explain how anything works. They'll promise you everything when you call to book, but don't forget to pay attention to the small print (hidden in size 0 font on an invisible page on their website) that explains all their extra charges they'll add on when they forget to collect your boxes, or decide that everything must be repacked.

Move size: Partial Move Service cost: $200

Official company response

Hello, we would like to remind you and everyone reading your review that Seven Seas Worldwide have spent over twenty years working hard to perfect a reliable, affordable and secure relocation service. If you would like us to investigate your case further, please provide your job reference number. Thank you.

Be very wary using this company as their staff steal and they use every excuse not to deal with the.

As other reviewers have mentioned if Seven Seas paid as much attention to customer complaints as to the amount of online rave reviews they post about themselves they probably wouldn't have such bad service.

We have used this company a few times when travelling between countries but the last time their staff had the audacity to go through our boxes and STEAL whatever they liked. When we reported this matter as well as broken items to customer services their response was dismissive even though we had taken extra insurance on our belongings.

Their response is that because the items were stolen in transit, they don't know who stole them so we are not covered. If you do take the extra paid insurance it only covers you for non-delivery of the entire box and not for when their staff STEAL your belongings.
They have no intention of sorting out this issue as they know there is nothing you can do!

Please be aware of them and check your different options when sending your stuff home! Terrible experience and shocking how they can get away with theft with no repercussions!

Move size: 2 Bedroom Home Service cost: $1300

Official company response

Dear Anthony,

Your shipment arrived within the transit time you were quoted.

We conducted a thorough investigation in both our South Africa operations and our New Zealand operations and found no evidence that your shipment had been tampered with by anyone.

You had taken out Basic Insurance which, as you say, covers you for the loss of the entire shipment or boxes and bags within. However, your claim listed contents that were not listed on your insurance inventory.

We are sorry we could not assist you.

Regards,
Seven Seas Worldwide.

International move from Melbourne, VIC to , NOR

I sent 5 suitcases from Australia to Norway.

I sent my stuff from Australia to Norway after moving back to my home country. This company is not trust worthy at all.
I paid what I was suppose to pay when I booked the shipment. But after they had picked up my stuff, they order me to pay much more then what the agreement was in the first place. The value of my stuff was not worth the price of the shipment they were asking for. I only had cloths and shoes and few books. They asked me to pay total of 4400 AUD for my stuff. This is really ridiculous because I used exactly the same company to ship my stuff to Australia. At that time I payed 2000 AUD and I had MORE stuff. This company is a scam. I got my lawyer to deal with them as they kept ignoring the agreement over and over. Please DONT USE THIS COMPANY! They were sooo nice in the beginning but as soon as they oick up your stuff, then they keep asking for more money for you to get your stuff back. STAY AWAY FROM THEM!

Move size: Studio flat Service cost: $4400

Official company response

Dear Janette,

You shipped 6 boxes and bags from Cairns, Australia to Oslo, Norway. The shipment arrived on time and in good condition.

The charges you mention were on the quote you would have received from us and these were explained to you when you called us. You used our service to send 2 bags by air from Hungary to Australia in 2016. We are sorry that you were unhappy with our service but all our charges are as they were quoted to you when you first ordered.

International move from Sydney, NSW to , UK

I would NOT recommend this company!!

I sent a box from Australia (Sydney) to the U.K (Glasgow). It was a very bad decision to use this company as the package was not actually sent to the address I had requested. I told them how important this box was and that I needed it ASAP.

I called them after the supposed delivery date to find out where my box was. They said it was stuck at border control and they would get the box to me as quickly as possible as I had my kilt for a wedding in the box. After waiting and not being able to wear my clothes for the wedding (having to rent one and pay for it), I called them back.

My box had in fact been in Glasgow for two weeks but the automatic system had not worked and I had not been notified!! At this point I was very unhappy and annoyed at what had happened. This is exactly what I paid the company for but yet they had not delivered on promises. The only reason I found out the box was in Glasgow was due to the fact that I had called them.

I eventually got the box delivered to my house, (after having to lift the box up my stairs and it being in very bad condition).

The company failed to do what I had paid them to do. Deliver a box from A to B so I contacted them to make a complaint and ask for some sort of compensation. I was rudely told that I was not entitled to anything. Very poor service for the money I paid.

Move size: Partial Move Service cost: $250

Official company response

Dear Calum,

Your shipment arrived at our depot in Glasgow but we failed to contact you and it remained undelivered until you contacted us. Please accept our apologies for this delay.

The shipment still arrived within the quoted time frame. You used your own box and we can therefore not comment on its strength and quality, we always recommend that our boxes, which are free for our Baggage Worldwide service, be used to ensure there are no issues.

Regards, Seven Seas Worldwide.

All my stuff were damaged and dented.

This is the worst nightmare ever. We have shipped a lot of big boxes with this company. When they came picked up the boxes, the boxes were in perfect condition. And I had packed all my stuff very nicely and protectively with ton of bubble wraps, padding, boxes inside boxes. But when the boxes were delivered to my place in the U.S., they were all completed crushed and torn open. All the stuff inside were damaged and dented even tho I had put a bunch of bubble wraps around them. The condition were unacceptable. And some of my stuff were lost because there were huge holes and openings on the boxes. I had no idea what they had done to my boxes? why the boxes were torn like that?

I am so disappointed. I spent so much money on the move and now all my stuff are ruined. My worst decision ever to have gone with Seven Seas Worldwide rather than other companies I have used before.

Service cost: $1400

D not use Sevenseas Worldwide!!

I had ordered a shipping service to China on 9th August. After I have paid the deposit, I was then informed of extra charges of 442 yuan/£45 in China. I received the e-mails and waited at home. No boxes arrived. I called the call center several times. The service was shoddy and unreliable. The staff at the call centre does not really care, and kept blaming the customer. Finally speaking with a supervisor, he said to me that I have to pick the goods in person in China. Since I cannot do it therefore there is no need to send the boxes to me anyway. The deposit is un-refundable. Again he finger-pointed the customer. At the end, he put down the phone rudely.
If I could rate the service to zero, I would.
What a poor, unreliable and pathetic service that I would never recommend to anybody. Be careful.

Service cost: £200

Official company response

Dear Freda,

We have investigated all job under the name "Freda", shipping from China to the United Kingdom. We have also investigated all jobs book in or around August 9, 2016 from China to the United Kingdom and neither search has revealed a job which fits the description you have provided.

Do Not Use This Company.

We moved from HK to UK in August 2017, after numerous disasters with Seven Seas Worldwide we received our shipping on 5th June 2018. Multiple items missing and multiple items in our boxes which are not ours.

Here's a rundown of everything from start to finish.

My husband arranged the shipping with HK office with Adzim. We wanted to pay by bank transfer, which Adzim advised yes we could. She delayed giving bank details until day of collection where she changed her story to "cannot do bank transfer. Leave the full cash balance with your boxes for shipping." Ludicrous I know. But with my husband leaving that day he felt this was his only option. He trusted Seven Seas Worldwide. I know he should not have done this and he knows too. But he did. He left $3000HKD cash in an envelope with the shipping papers on top of one of the boxes.

September 2017 (we're now in UK) we receive an email advising we have not paid our balance so our shipping is still in HK. My husband called HK office, not surprisingly they have no recollection of such a conversation. Call UK office, they will investigate. No option but to pay again. Pay £276GBP via credit card.

Receive our shipping 5th June 2018. Notice lots of items of baby clothing which are not ours. Notice we have a lot of big items missing. These include;
Kids scooter and helmet 
Kids plastic table
3 designer coats
Large toy car carrier filled with cars 
Bubble mower
Shapes for VTech shape sorter toy 
Etc..etc..

Husband called company. Not much help. "Take pics of stuff you have which is not yours and list items which are missing." 

All in they have "lost" more than £1000GBP of our belongings and they being no help.

Been in contact with UK Tranding Standards and HK Consumer Council.

Cautionary tale. 

Avoid this company if you can.

Move size: Partial Move Service cost: £300

Official company response

Dear Nicole,

You were shipping 8 boxes from Hong Kong to the United Kingdom.

We have reviewed the notes on your account and recordings of your calls with our Business Centre Advisors.

Our worldwide policy is that the driver is never paid cash; this is to safeguard the driver from mugging or the vehicle being broken into whilst the driver is away delivering or collecting shipments. We can also not guarantee that it will be our driver, there may be an accident or breakdowns which delay our driver and in such instances, to minimise delay, we draft in a contractor to cover.

When you told us what you had done during one of your calls with our Advisor, they asked you when you were told to leave cash and by whom but you were unclear. You instead said “the landlord had probably redirected the cash”.

We are mystified where the amount of HK$3000 as the final amount to pay. The Advisor would not have been able to provide you with an exact figure to pay for Shipping and Transportation charge. Your shipment is not invoiced until after the collection; to confirm how many boxes there were to be sent, confirm the destination address and what insurance you wanted on your shipment. Since you decided not to take insurance you may have thought to use the value of your quote for shipping 8 large boxes which is HK$3,295 but you paid a deposit of HK$700 which would have left HK$2,595.

You were, by your own admission not present when your shipment was collected by our driver, we therefore cannot confirm what happened prior to our arrival. Your shipment was held at our Hong Kong Hub until payment was received then shipped to the UK where it remained within our secure storage unit at our main hub outside London. It was then repositioned to our Glasgow depot, where it was again held in a secure environment, before being delivered to you by our driver. Your shipment was signed for as in good order.

Regards, Seven Seas Worldwide.
