Sorry folks, but I had to delete the link.....:NoNo:

As I was looking for balikbayan forwarders addresses on the forum, I clicked on your link and my antivirus went into an hyperactive overdrive....:CompBuster::doh

Apparently it contained a trojan.:NoNo::omg:

We've used Forex Cargo UK Ltd in Hayes, Middx for several years without any problems. One large box & a free bulilit box to Neg Occ was £100.

Hi Andy

Out of intrest did you use the tracking on the website and was it any use?

With it taking a while be nice to keep an eye on when the parcel is likely to be delivered.

I haven't tried the tracking page yet, as it's too early. The box is due to arrive in the RP early Dec, so I'll look in a few weeks time. I assume if I try now it'll say "at sea"!
