I was recruited through Crossworld Marine Services for a tanker assignment. The crewing office required a new medical examination even though my previous one was still valid for another nine months. After one month, we were told that the vessel would call at Russian ports and all Ukrainian crew members would be replaced, but our wages were not paid. The crewing company said it was not responsible and told us to resolve the matter with the other companies ourselves; the payment issue is still unresolved.
I have been working through Crossworld Marine Services since it opened. My experience has been positive: the staff are kind, responsive, and understanding, and they help when problems arise. The crewing services are free of charge, and I consider the company reliable.
I joined Crossworld Marine Services for a second time. The office staff and managers were kind and responsive, there were no agency fees, and the company covered the medical examination. If a seafarer is willing to work, they provide jobs without problems, and I planned to continue working through them.
I left my position through Crossworld Marine Services before completing the contract and was due to return home. The vessel was in poor condition, the salary was low for a rating, and wages were usually paid between the 10th and 15th of the month. On the positive side, the company did not charge for placement and paid for the medical examination.
I currently work through Crossworld Marine Services and have generally had a good experience with the office and its treatment of seafarers.
I worked through Crossworld Marine Services for one contract. The office treated me very well, and I may work with them again in the future.
I have completed five contracts through Crossworld Marine Services and currently have no plans to leave them. There are no extra charges, the office staff are communicative, and they handle matters clearly. Shipowners vary, so conditions can be different from one vessel to another, but I have no complaints about the crewing company.
I am currently working through Crossworld Marine Services. The vessels vary in age and condition, but the office treats seafarers well and everything has been handled clearly and on time. I am satisfied and hope to continue working through them.
I have been working with Crossworld Marine Services since 2018. My experience with the office has been very positive: they offer good companies and salaries, and arrange departures quickly.
The crewing manager offered me several vacancies and was very responsive. However, two positions advertised at a salary of USD 3,800 were later offered at USD 3,500 after confirmation, although they were with different shipowners. I ultimately did not join through the company.
I had the opportunity to work through this crewing agency. The employment process was smooth, and the managers are professional and experienced. The shipowners are mostly Greek, and they will find the best option for you based on your knowledge and capabilities, with no complaints. One downside is that they share a database with several shipowners, so if you need a starting position, this is not the place, as multiple companies will see your application and there won't be much room for maneuver afterwards.
