Last week had some difficulties to overcome with a shipment to Belgium especially regarding the POA form. CustomsLink as usual pulled out all the stops for us and Michael saw us through from the start and took us over the line to the end. Big thanks to them and money well spent as far as we are concerned. Couldn't have done without CustomsLink since Brexit!!

This is without a doubt THE most friendliest team I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Every one of the office staff is extremely helpful and guided me through the customs process. Mel, Jess, Kate and Phoebe were especially helpful.
