Seamless, fair pricing, easy.

Beware of other carriers offering cheaper rates (scam) that then hit your credit card for overages. I thought my cc was hacked! 1 year later still in legal tussle with F**Ex.

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for sharing your experience — we’re sorry to hear about the frustration with the additional charges.

We haven’t seen a message from you directly yet, so we haven’t had the chance to review the shipment details together. When UPS applies an adjustment, it’s based on their own measurement scans in transit. If we can obtain photos of the box and dimensions, our team is happy to submit a dispute with UPS on your behalf, which often helps resolve situations like this.

We know unexpected charges are frustrating, and we’d really like the opportunity to look into this for you. If you’re open to it, please reach out to our support team ( [email protected]) with your shipment number so we can dig in and advocate for you.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Easy to use service

It was easy to complete the on-line form, I was able to forward the emailed packing slip to the bike shop that packed my bike, and it was delivered earlier than estimated. Thank you.
