Parcel got there in good time

Parcelforce were delayed by 2 days because they had the wrong details and were incapable of picking up the phone to get the right ones Good price though

Very good and efficient service however you need to improve on handling queries and process refunds where appropriate

I have not received my parcels as yet it was supposed to be a 48 hour service, I’ve called the parcel force depot every day in wales to see if they are picking up! We’ve been through the same story five days now, still not picked the parcel up, I haven’t got a clue how to contact parcel monkey to sort this out. Still awaiting my parcel, I will never use parcel monkey again and will never recommend them to any one nice, maybe you can contact me and help for a change this hasn’t been my first bad experience I’ve bought a car part 3 years ago and it was the same they never delivered it and I lost a £300 pound part and when I contacted them they said the delivery company went bust Total rubbish don’t be fooled by the cheap delivery prices

I have sent quite a number of parcels using Parcel Monkey and have always had good service. You get a variety of quotes back across a range of couriers and then just pick what you want.

Clearly priced. Everything exactly as it said on the tin.

Great service but I don’t understand why the two boxes were delivered on two different days.
18/06/19 by Sarah Morris
Had 2 parcels uncollected on the day they were booked for. Probably because our usual driver was on a day off because it seems thats when it usually happens.

Great find! Shows the cheapest, quickest and reliable delivery options. Sent my package to Cape Town South Africa and it arrived in one piece with no delay and cheaper than anything else I could find.
18/06/19 by Customer
The parcels were all picked up in the allotted time and for a very reasonable price. They then arrived on time. There were 2 hiccups; the tracking said the driver had tried to deliver and I was out, when I was in. And 4 parcels turned up without the 5th. But it all worked out ok in the end.

The service is really cheap and quick. The boxes arrived even 1 day before suppose to arrive. Only proble was one of the boxes arrived bit broken but things inside were fine

Easy from booking to collection , well done.

All was done as promised - only hitch was one picture had glass broken despite fragile stickers all over package - so somewhere someone was not that careful.

Selected DPD 2 day service to France as goods being sent were time sensitive. Took to drop off point on a Tuesday lunchtime. Wasnt collected until Thursday Morning and its now Tuesday of the following week and its still not delivered. Not directly Parcel Monkeys fault but using a partner with this poor level of service reflects badly.

Excellent service. I use Parcel Monkey all the time to send out my parcels over 2Kg, both to UK addresses and internationally (including China, South Korea, Japan, USA, Canada, Russia, and various EU countries). I typically use either Parcel Force or DPD, depending on cost.
18/06/19 by Elizabeth Johnson
Booked a collection service with DPD. On Day 1, the courier did not show. I re-booked for the next day and spoke to a customer service rep on live chat who assured me the courier would come for the re-booked day. Day 2, again, the courier did not show. Contacted customer service rep on live chat whos offered me a refund as a solution. What an absolute waste of time.
18/06/19 by Jon Nolan
Excellent! The courier service required, at a great price, was found and booked within minutes.
18/06/19 by JL
No issues whatsoever, straight forward process from start to finish. Parcel collected and arrived to me on specific date. Would definitely use Parcel Monkey again!
18/06/19 by Jason Bell
I’ve got to pick one star because it can’t be below that. 4-5 day service to China, 20 days if I’m lucky. How do these people expect businesses to operate when they give a service as poor as this. Customer service is a joke, just the usual we will be back to you, this dos not solve the problem, action does. The mark of a good business is that it recognises there is a problem, and secondly how they respond to it. Next time I will stick to Courier or fedex.

I am still waiting for my boxes to be delivered in Corfu 2 weeks after they were supposed to have been and Parcel Monkey have done nothing to sort this out other than giving me a phone number for the national postal service in Athens and said I should chase this myself! Very poor service and very poor customer support.
18/06/19 by Eleanor Bowen
The whole experience was totally effortless. I weighed, booked & boxed the parcel, which was a small counter fridge. The courier arrived on time and the parcel arrived at the destination safely.
Thank you very much. I’ll use your service again and will highly recommend

Great we were in England and had to get clothes back to the USA because our baggage would’ve been too heavy we really appreciated the service and it was delivered in three days and £150 less than royal mail

I have used parcelmonkey a few times now.
Each time sending things to myself from England to Germany instead of taking a suitcase on the plane.I used parcel force each time. Collected on a Thursday and delivered on Monday. Though you can forget the tracking with parcel force, the box still arrived 2 working days after collection which is the most important thing.
17/06/19 by Millie
easy to calculate the price and many options are given, eg to drop the parcel off or wait for the provider to collect it.
17/06/19 by Customer
The goods were thankfully all accounted for however the parcel which was brand new when packed was considerably damaged, split open on the side and had obviously been bashed about in transept. Will use again but will be securing even more in future and so having to use more tape.
17/06/19 by Sarah
very poor customer service
17/06/19 by Customer
Just a **** company... Avoid if you know whats good for you. Youd get so much more sense from Monkeys than you will from Parcel Monkey. Ill never understand how theyre still in business... Just take peoples money, promise they will deliver and simply dont! thats typical Rip off company at its best. If you only ever read one review, make it this one and save yourself a whole load of problems - avoid Parcel Monkey.
17/06/19 by Morgzplayz Legend
I am so impressed with Parcel Monkey. I send parcels to Ireland and they get there extremely fast, much quicker and cheaper than Royal Mail. Tracking all the way.
Will use again soon.
17/06/19 by Trudie
Everything was straightforward and easy . There was a bit of a glitch with the actually delivery as its a difficult address to find and the customer service team were so helpful and completely on the button.
Highly recommend
17/06/19 by Kaye
Simple to use. Great prices, tracked from pick up to delivery and it got there. What more can you ask for?
