I have used Parcel Monkey UK previously and, as before, I was not disappointed.
Online booking is very straightforward, I was advised the following day when collection would be by DHL and this was spot on. I was able to track my parcels journey and delivery.
Just one blip in that I received an email saying the driver delivering had been delayed but on checking the tracking and speaking to the recipient (my choice to call them) I knew the parcel had been delivered.
I will use Parcel Money UK again and have already recommended their services.

Selecting a courier via Parcel Monkey couldnt be more simple.
Very straightforward and user friendly web pages and instructions.
Only 4 * instead of 5 because the nominated courier didnt collect on time and the delivery to destination confirmation was initially ambiguous.

Ive now used Parcel Monkey several times, and on every occasion it has been simple, straight forward and efficient. I would DEFINITELY recommend Parcel Monkey, and have no idea how we managed without them!

Where to begin... First and last time will use this "Service. Never arrived on chosen day it was booked for Thereafter made contact with PM and they booked for following day. I chose to select parcel 48 which I stupidly thought ( as implied) 48 hours delivery. Also as one of the most expensive options thought would work.How wrong was I with that! Item was sent to wrong Depot and after a string of emails took over a week for a small parcel the size of a crisp box to arrive. PM then simply said couriers at fault and all within their small print ! In future I will go directly to couriers for quotation as PM simply abstain their responsibility. No compensation entitlement despite catalogue of errors. Truly awful service. Caused me no end of grief with my client who was waiting for delivery.

I had two parcels collected and only one delivered. No contact numbers provided by parcel monkey to follow up directly. All communication via chat line and have contacted almost daily for last 4 weeks and no explanation provided they are passing buck on to the courier DPD who have indicated to me that it has not left UK, my parcel was being sent to Australia- my grandchildren did not receive their Christmas presents - so disappointing! My contract is with parcel monkey and therefore they should have an agreed timeframe for providing information on my missing parcel but do not appear to have any control on feedback from courier!

Collected Monday and delivered Tuesday

Great service. I sent two backpacks for a very reasonable price, to save carrying them on the tube and train. I got a great price through Parcelmonkey, much cheaper than going through Parcelforce directly.
A Parcelforce van and driver came and picked them up the next day, so the only difference between buying through Parcelmonkey and Parcelforce was the price (and I was allowed a larger size of parcel booking through the former).
People giving this site bad reviews seem to be mostly conflating the aggregator site (a middleman) with the parcel companies themselves. Use this site to get the discounts. If an order doesnt turn up its because of the mail carrier. Its like people giving bad reviews on Amazon because of delays in the postal service or because of a bad seller.

Biggest issues for me are that on a couple of occasions so far, items booked for collection arent collected and updates on the site quite often are wrong. Ive got parcels that have been delivered weeks ago shown as waiting collection still. On the plus side, it does take the hassle out of shipping larger items and collection issues aside, Ive had no major problems so far.

Do you want me to tell why I gave this rating? If i could I would give 0 star.I paid to be collected 2 parcels. Nobody came to collect the parcels. I spent 3 days staying in the flat waiting for them to come and countless hours to the phone.I was said they came and I was not at home which was not true. Customer service with no purpose for this problem. Always transferring me to nearest depot, saying I have to speak with them. I was said they will send the van back in the 3rd day. My husband spent 2.5 hours outside of the building waiting for them, until 7 oclock in the evening.Nobody came. I still wait to receive the money back. Are 10 days and still I dont have it back in the account.

Well done !!!
18/01/19 by DAVID Grant
Easy to use and affordable. The only downfall is when I went to the drop off point, they only could accept 6 parcels a day and I had to come back the next day to drop it off again.

I am an online seller and sometimes RM cannot handle specific weight and size parcels so I need another courier that can handle this. I tried Parcel Monkey and it works smooth and even cheaper than going direct to the Courier. I must say I am impressed and their online account is super easy to use.
Thank you Parcel Monkey!

went to order parcel service- it was not available, old sites still linked- poor service
18/01/19 by Chris
Avoid these scammers they have hidden charges after you send the parcel!!!! one week after sending the parcel they made a lie about the weight of package eventhough I had a digital scale and put the weight correctly and they charged my card without my permission.
18/01/19 by Azizi
All good. Smooth transaction, no problems.
17/01/19 by Customer
I wont be using this company again. Just a really non responsive company. Sometimes it is better to pay the extra and guarantee the better after service. This lot wouldnt know a customer or what to do if they cam face to face with one. ****FAIR WARNING**** **DO NOT USE, PAY THE EXTRA AND GET THE BETTER SERVICE!**
17/01/19 by JAMES GORING
My parcel reached its destiny in 3 working days. They picked up the package as scheduled. All well. Rg
