Urgent Warning re Shipping Company

By cazei

This is an urgent warning to everyone who lives in Qatar! Please share widely.
Do NOT use Agape International to do your shipping! I have nothing but trouble because of them. THREE months ago they came to my house in Doha to pack my things, take them away and receive the payment from me. They were on time that day but had to be supervised and all calculations had to be double checked, as they made a mistake that would have cost me more than 1,000 extra.
Since then I haven't received any documentation or even an ETA. Nothing. Despite many phone calls, visits and emails by myself, friends in Doha and even a lawyer, I only got a couple of emails promising me I'd receive something the next day but then again nothing.
Please, if anyone is moving out of Doha any time soon, make sure they don't use Agape. They seem professional enough until they've got your money but after that - hallas - you never hear from them again. I don't know if I'll ever get my stuff. I think the next step is to call the police. But please share this to save others the trouble! Thanks.

Did you get hold of any shipping documents from them my pal? If yes, then you have a case against them. If they were shipping your consignment by sea, you may be able to find out the status of your shipment by contacting the agent of the shipping company or the airline if you were getting the shipment through air my pal. Have any of your colleague or friend in Doha call on them to find out the status my pal. Hope this works out in your favour my pal.

Thanks for the heads up .. Sorry to hear of your plight. Hope someone from Agape reads this and responds ...

"They seem professional enough until they've got your money but after that - hallas..." - applies to many companies here ;O(
