Probably because Christmas and New Year got in the way, but the Parcel that should have taken 3-5 Working days eventually arrived at the destination 14 days after it was sent

Easy to print the label. Parcel was picked up from Horwich and landed in the South of France in no time. £15 for 30 kilos - bargain.

The search is efficient and it is easy to book. I really like that they highlight if you need a printer or not. Knowing that the parcel is going to be signed for is useful.
I had to chat with the CS to get the right tracking number but it was very quick.

My parcel still has not been delivered nearly one month after collection. The address it is going to is a shop and does not have a code to enter, which is the reason given for non delivery. Absolutely shockingly bad service.

Prices are great, but tracking information did not upload which caused some issues for me

Its been 5 and a half months and still nothing, customer services are awful with no information and never reply when they say they will. Would rather throw my next parcel away than let them near it. Do not use if you want your parcel to get delivered. Al Hayes

When ParcelMonkey works its a really great value service. This time it did, UK to USA over the Xmas holidays and it took 5 days, cant ask for more than that.

Used parcel monkey before and they have always delivered a great service, the most recent time which happened to be Christmas time, I notified them my daughter had not received her parcel, they chased the Australian couriers and got straight back to me - problem resolved. would definitely recommend

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU NOT... I hope you go bust!!!! please DO NOT USE THESE W*&@£RS!!!!

Happy with the service.

Really great courier, would use again only reason not five stars is that you couldn’t specify a collection window only a whole day with no indication
of what time your parcel would be collected. A text with even a AM or PM or between 11-1 etc would have meant a whole day wasn’t wasted waiting in.

Package picked up 21st December for next day delivery. Not delivered until the 2nd January. When I tried to contact customer services to ask where it was through chat (as there is no phone number) I just kept getting fobbed off with no answer. We will get back to you soon or, asking me my tracking number for the 10th time. Maybe the parcel was not meant to come until the 2nd January (which would be surprising given that it was picked up on the 21st on a next day service), but just to be told would have been nice as it was my childrens Christmas present.

The collection has already failed 3 times Terrible Im going to look for another company

I have used Parcel Monkey 19 times over 4 years, mny latest experience has been dreadful. Whilst I accept that they are the go-between they have not reacted like I would expect when this time DPD let me down. Here is what happened. I placed an order for collection on the 19th December using DPD. It was not collected, nor was I told that it had not been. So it was rescheduled for the 27th December. They failed to collect then, saying the shop was closed. The collection point is a tenpin bowling centre and it was open. The driver had to walk past the parcel to get to the shop in the bowling centre. So, it was rescheduled once again for collection on the 28th December. They did not collect and the shop was open all day. Rescheduled for collection on the 2nd January. They failed to turn up. Now I have had to cancel the order and start again hoping that collection will actually happen tomorrow Friday 4th January. I think that DPD owes me some compensation for the distress this has caused me. I have had to let people down that were expecting items they were going to be giving as presents. Parcel Monkey only say sorry for the inconvenience. No indication that they have been in touch with DPD letting them know how poor their service has been.

Terrible experience. They were supposed to have a pickup on the 2nd day. Waited in and it didnt happen. On the 3rd day they text me to say it will be picked up that day. I contacted support and they said no that actually they shouldnt have texted me that, instead it would be picked up on the 4th day. Support never answered a direct question and the entire thing is a mess. Considering you cant get a pickup window and they dont pickup on the days they say they will, what is the point?

Parcel supposed to be picked up on the 28th of December but it’s now the 3rd and still not bee. Picked up, phoned the depot that’s picking it up and they have no record of my parcel, WASTE OF £25

I was apprehensive at first about using a new service but the website was easy to use. Christmas collection was very, very busy so unlike other less frantic times, I didn’t know when the postie was coming. But come he did, and it was better than going to the post office with a set of golf clubs!

Id has been scheduled twice for pick up now and still not lifted
03/01/19 by Customer kurtis
Always reliable and much cheaper than using Parcel Force who collected the parcel.
03/01/19 by Forgan Distillery Ltd.
Don’t bother! I used this service twice and the courier never collected the item on the day it was arranged! on the second time around I called the courier company (DX) after the 2nd day of not collecting the parcel, they told me that Parcel Monkey will try and group more than 1 collection together to save money so it will never be collected on the day and it will most probably be the 3rd or 4th!. if you have a next day delivery Parcel Monkey will turn it into 3-5 day to save money for them! AVOID

Great service and never had any issues. I send parcels regularly abroad and I only use Parcel Monkey UK :)
02/01/19 by Sandra
Very impressed with service. My parcel was picked up from my home address and it was delivered within 24 hours. As the contents were mostly glass was a bit apprehensive but had no need to worry. Would not hesitate to use them again.
02/01/19 by Willy Nilly
They did not collect. I rearranged collection for the 2nd as a result and I have now been informed that this had been cancelled and that they will collect on the 3rd instead. That has resulted in 3 unpaid days of work.

Easy to book, easy drop off and parcels delivered promptly.
