The CustomsLink team were amazingly helpful recently on a very fraught and last minute request. Mel and Phoebe mostly dealt with me, and even though I panicked they remained calm and helpful at all times. I would definitely recommend.

I called this morning and spoke to Mel. I haven't sent a truck from the UK to France before and was in a dilemma as the documentation I was given did not have a GMR document. Phoebe put all my information together and produced the GMR. Thank you both for making a bad day better. Much appreciated. Thank you for your swift response and hard work. I will be using CustomsLink in the future. 5 🌟 Many thanks again.
