  4. Hello. I shipped my box from Miami, Florida last Nov. 7, 2012 via StarXpressForwarders. I called their agent here in Manila and they told me that my box arrived in Manila last Friday, January 4, 2013, and they are just waiting for the Customs to release it. As far as i know, it only takes 2 to 3 days for the Customs to release it, but why my box has not yet been delivered. They are not replying to my email, as i am willing to personally pick it up directly from their office. Hope you could help me. Thanks

  5. I also sent a box to Starxpress in Canaveral Florida last Nov. 14 2012 and haven’t received as yet. I called the contact number in Manila and I was told that they are no longer connected to starxpress. I also contacted starxpress and send an e-mail but no reply. Their website is also not working. As of now, I am already in Manila and I have no idea where to make a follow up and what happen to my box. If anyone can give me their contact number is greatly appreciated.

  11. Is Genex Cargo still in the blacklist? I’m planning to send a package from China to Manila and as of now, they are the only shipping service that I can find that are directly in contact with a Filipino staff here in China.

    Or do you you have any suggested shipping company from China (Shenzhen) to Manila?

    Thanks!

    • We’re forwarding your inquiry to the Philippine Shippers’ Bureau, the agency that regulates freight forwarders.

    • I’m wondering why Gen-Ex is included in the list because I and my friend tried sending each box of super jumbo last year – Nov and it did arrive in Dec.

  12. Pls Lisa kindly update the list particularly Gen-Ex Cargo because I tried their service and there was no any problem that incurred. It was my first time and my friend said she usually send her package through it during her stay in H.K.

    • Thank you for your comment. Please note the list was supplied by the Philippine Shippers’ Bureau, the government agency in charge of monitoring freight forwarders, and not by PortCalls. PortCalls only picked up the list from PSB.

      I suggest you get in touch with PSB to clear this issue.

  13. Why is it Genexcargo is in blacklist? I have tried the service from BKK thailand and they delivered on time and never had any problem. We have been using this forwarder for many years.

    thanks

  14. My in-laws are expecting a package from London and the receiving company here in Manila is YASASA International Cargo Services included in the blacklisted cargo companies. They have been waiting for the Package since it was sent last December. We we’re told by someone from that Company that they will have it delivered by first week of March pero April na ngayun and we can no longer contact anyone from their company…Please help us. Thanks

  15. can you tell me if genex forwarder out of cambodia is legit or fake please im expecting a package through them and they want me to send money to them via westernunion to ship the package help please

  16. Hi,
    Your information is very helpful.
    Do you have blacklisted forwarders in London or in United Kingdom.
    Thanks.
    Regards.

  17. I was supposed to receive a package from Genex Forwarder 2 days ago but it never came to my country and they keep asking for additional payments and claim to be having problems with customs. The package is coming from my boyfriend who is based in Iraq. Can you follow up on this for me please.

  18. I sent a Balik box from Horizon PH store in downtown Ft Louderdale FL USA on March 9th, 2013. I have not receive the box yet and now I’m leaving the Philippines to go back to USA. Delivered of the box is in Mendez Cavite. Any assistance wil be Greatfull

  19. I sent a balikbayan box from Horizon Filipino Store in Fort Lauderdale last Feb.2013 via StarXpress forwarders
    but its been 3 months since and I have yet to receive it.
    StarXpress is not responding to my email anymore.
    Please advise what to do.

  20. I think that PSB should look after those Forwarders that is not
    accredited by the PSB.
    There are many Domestic Forwarder who are not registered in the Philippine Shippers Bureau.

  21. To maximize complains either forwarders are illegitimate or real,
    before sending your boxes, please consult with PSB either PH agent
    is accredited or blacklist agent. This way, everyone has to avoid
    future complains.

    Thanks,

  22. I send my cargo package to gp express last sept. 19 2013 until now my package has not been arrive.Is there anyone knows about the contact no. of gp express in manila?

  23. Hi. Can you please verify if United Philippine Express Cargo (UPEC) because I’m trying to search possible website for them but can’t find none.

  24. Hello! My husband has just sent his package through Fil-Asia Cargo Forwarder in Saudi Arabia last day. But I just found out today that they have been blacklisted by PSB. What are we going to do? Please help us! Thank you so much!

    • Hi!

      Tanong Ko lang po kung na receive nyo po yung Cargo niyo sa Fil Asia. Kasi Mommy ko po kakapadala lang this september. I wanted to know lang po kung legit ba sila when it comes to transaction.

  25. Hi…may i know how long it will take for a cargo to be cleared in custom?
    cause according to Gp Cargo Express my packages are still in the custom since april 5, 2014.

    thank you

  26. Ms. Liza Almonte,

    Why Black listed Freight Forwarder still running the Business abroad? Though with the technology today there are still OFW’s doesn’t have access to the internet or being informed thru media regarding this matter so they still become a victim of this scam. Why not completely close their business?

    • I’m sure the government would like to get rid of all fly-by-night forwarders but it needs the help of the public to do so.

      Complaints should be filed with the Department of Trade and Industry so the agency can, in turn, warn the public of unlicensed forwarders.

      Complaints may be lodged directly with the Philippine Shippers’ Bureau at 2nd Floor, DTI Bldg., 361 Gil Puyat Avenue, Makati City or faxed at (02) 751.3305 or emailed to dti_psb@yahoo.com.ph. Other numbers to call for assistance: DTI-Direct (02) 751.3330 or 0917.834.3330.

  27. Hi, is there someone here knows the contact number of Fil- Asia Cargo Forwarders in Manila. I have cargo from them sent July 22, and its been 2months now. Been hearing news that this company is one of the blocklisted cargo forwarders and I am worry about my cargo. Hope to hear from you. Thanks.

    I search their Manila Office and its in Paranaque but there’s no contact number at all

    • I suggest you call the Philippine Shippers’ Bureau at (02) 751.3330 or 0917.834.3330 to inquire if Fil-Asia Cargo Forwarders is a licensed freight forwarder. PSB may also be emailed at dti_psb@yahoo.com.ph.

  28. Hi there! I was wondering if the ATLAS SHIPPERS INTERNATIONAL INC in Kansas has any bad records? It is our first time to send balikbayan boxes and we are very hesitant since there are lot of things going on esp it is Christmas season.. Thanks so much!
