“Superb service”

Ignatius T.
3/23/24

First time using a freight forwarder to ship a package from US to Australia. The website was relatively easy to use, I could track my package and make payment with no fuss as the website was user friendly. They were very quick to ship out my package after I made payment for shipping on the same day it arrived. Was a bit hesitant at first due to reviews I read online but in my experience, they have been excellent and am glad to go with them over the other competitors. Rates were also good as I expected double of what I had to pay in the end.

“Worst shipping experience”

I've used many international shipping companies in my time and this has to be the worst I have dealt with. The website is terrible and confusing to use and the hidden costs are ridiculous they will force your parcel storage time to laps and keep your parcel

Avoid this company!
I found a poorly built web site, poor customer service, slow to respond to emails and issues, and a final point to note -- a post on their own web site forum that talks about how they wish customers that ask too many questions would go away. This post was from their own employee, on their own web site!

What they fail to realize is that if Shipito provided the service as stated people wouldn't be sending them emails and demanding answers.

One final item to note if you are even considering this company is that when I called after a week of trying to solve a problem with their web site and services, and I asked to speak to a supervisor, they told me she (Lindsay) does NOT take customer calls because "she's too busy doing other more important things". Really? Amazing!

Here's the quote from their employee named John from their ShipIto archived forum:
If the text below describes your actual behavior please pay close attention. We honestly wish that you switch from Shipito to some other competition. We would tell you that in your face, but we just don't know how, so we don't hurt your feelings. I am willing to offer you refunds even for non-refundable services. I will help you to make the switch! There are certain things we are really tired of. It is not usual for company to saying something like that to customers. I just hope it helps. There are people who really abuse the system and make our job difficult. We want to focus on good customers and give them our best. We don't want to spend majority of our time with extremely difficult customers."

It goes on from there and you can read the entire diatribe he wrote at:

Working with shipito from 2011 - so today is 2017 year - looks like need to find another forwarder! Clue in relation!
My parcel came to shipito warehouse in Hawthorne, CA, ******* at 21st of december by tracking info 1Z601V*******816, but didnt enter in my acount (a lot of users know that in this case u need to open an issue, not later than 10 days after item came by tracking, in your account and u will get reply in couple of days MAX).
I've written few mails and opened issue at 27 of december and repeated in chat!- so, main complain is! Today is 6th of january and still no answer on my issue - besides i\ve written two more times to chat for push the process and written mails to *******@shipito.com and *******@shipito.com - support agents lied me at 31st of december that item will come in 2 days and that stuff will reply me about my problem - i have still no reply from shipito and a lot of empty promises, and item is not entered account for sure.
For now - the 1st problem is - i don't know what to do next - who to write, who to call - all adresses that in charge don't reply, so looks like company executives have been changed recently and who in charge now - they don't care about processes and just trying to get profit out a name that established for years.
So now it is getting down - and i know that customer complains about shipito in 2016 end increased widely!

It's kind of my fault I didn't check the review carefully and fall for 5 stars review...

On the 10th of January I ordered my first package from a well known company in US and got it sent to shipito Hawthorne warehouse. I advise shipito my package is on the way and will be there in 3-5 business days. They respond to my email and asked for proof of purchase and identification. I submitted to them straight away with my passport, proof of purchase and a bill which have my name on it. After the package arrived at the warehouse, usps have sent me a notification said they delivered. I follow the website instruction and waited 24 hours for package to enter into the system and nothing seem to be appear. I contacted Nikki from support team and she advised me to wait 48 hours for package to show up in system. I waited another 48 hours and still nothing. I contacted the company again and speak to Jared he put in a request for missing parcel and get the warehouse to have a look. He asked me to contact them in 24 hours if I didn't receive any email. After 24 hours I reported to shipito I haven't receive any email. Another support agent advise me to put in a support ticket for parcel lost in warehouse. The next following day my ticket got respond from Joanne and announce my parcel is completely lost and can't be retrieved, she have sent my claim to claim department for reimbursement.

Today I speak to Jared again and he said reimbursement of $200 will go into my account and can be use for next shipping, if I want money my back then I have to give them my card detail and submit a form for refund, however Jared stated clear he don't know if it
Possible for me to get a refund it's all up to shipito claim department and they're very strict in handling refund.

This is my first time using Shipito.com and I don't expect it to happen. No parcel, lost $200 and have to wait and wait. I've also contacted PayPal and the seller, sadly they can't do anything because I asked for the parcel to delivered to shipito.
