We’re happy happy happy to be out of the sandpit, and I’m pleased to report that I’ve discovered a department in EK who know what they’re doing, respond to emails/phone calls and are completely pro-active! You too will discover them upon resignation...
On a far less positive note, I would caution anyone against using allied Pickfords as a removals company. They have been an absolute disaster from start to finish and despite our container arriving in our home country 3 weeks ago, it’s still not been delivered to us and there is no confirmed date for delivery. The entire mess stems from the Dubai office who have been indescribably, laughably neglectful. Save yourself the biggest stress of your life and go with anyone else
