jaysonandsarah Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Hi guys Visa granted and flights booked for 15th September 2013. Now have a couple of quotes from shipping companies. Quote from ******** £4100 and £3300 from Pickfords. Obvious price difference, but wanted to know peoples' thoughts on which company was best. Many thanks Jayson and Sarah Gilbert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blossom Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Welcome to poms in oz. Some companies have asked for their names to not be allowed on the website, which is why one of them has changed to stars. Personally I wouldn't trust a company who doesn't want people to be able to discuss how good they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones who have asked not to be mentioned the forum automatically removes the name. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Go with the cheapest. Assuming those are two household names, there is nothing I have seen over the years to indicate that any of the main players should be avoided at all costs and conversely nothing to suggest that any of them is better than any of the others.

jaysonandsarah Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Many thanks for your replies. It's strange that some companies don't want to be mentioned....I wonder what they have to fear/hide??? We've decided to go with p1ckfords. Will update on our experience. Hope you all have a trouble free migration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
