A 15kg 450mm square parcel made it to Switzerland in 8 days … longer than the quoted x3 days but totally fine as it was only £34. I think it got held up a little at customs.
Would use again no issues …

Horrible! Never picked up, tried to reschedule and again never came but just changed status to "thanks for letting us know your package no longer needs collecting"! I did no such thing, but rather wasted a day staying in waiting for a driver that never arrived.

Load of rubbish! Sent a ring back to company in wales, the email confirmed the address and it had gone back? Then I received it this morning at my home address from the parcel locker?

My first experience with this company was simply a disaster ! I sent a very small package to Namibia and inside the package was my Garmin smar****ch and the USB cable (without the retail box). My measurements and weight were correct and i kept also a picture with my package (for evidence) and its dimensions could be seen very clearly. The package had below the dimensions required to get the cost of 63.10 EUR. I measured it 3 times and its dimension were : 14.5 cm x 10.0 cm x 6.0 cm Few days after the package has been delivered, i saw that ParcelMorkey charged me an additional 37.99 EUR. I got in contact with them and I asked why i was charged an additional cost. They said that the package had 28.0 x 6.0 x 31.0 cm, which is crazy and totally wrong, as long as i have the picture with my package near the measuring tape. I asked them to show me an evidence that my measurements were wrong, but i got no response.... They simply stolen me and i am not the only one !!!! I am prepare to make a complain to Ombudsman and i will share my store everywhere i can, on the internet. This company should be avoided as much as you can !!!

Parcel Monkey do not honour delivery dates. Paid extra for 24-hour delivery and had a timely order arrive 4 days late, but they will not provide any refund or compensation as they have the following terms and conditions: 2.6. Compliance with the estimated time of collection or delivery is not guaranteed and the company shall not be liable for late deliveries unless there is valid evidence of a period of 5 working days from the date the goods were scheduled to be delivered on. I contacted the carrier and they say as it was booked with Parcel Monkey I have to take it up with them. Closed loop. Wish I read the reviews first.

Terrible service, terrible customer services, they shrug you off time & again if you have an issue. My parcel was refused at the click & collect shop due to no fault of my own, so it was sent back to me, but instead of going to my home address it went back to the ParcelMonkey depot in Preston. Why?! After numerous emails asking when it will be sent back to me, 2 weeks later the returns department finally email to say I have to pay an additional £17 to have it delivered back to me! Even if I pay the £17, I doubt it will end up coming back as they are simply useless. I will only book direct with Parcel Force from now on, as they are much better at customer services & sort any problems quickly & without all the hassle.

***DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY *** PARCEL MONKEY Are the worst couriers brokers you can use they quote you a low price and once they have collected they send you an email stating the previous day they took almost double what they first quoted you. i don’t know how it’s legal?? also there isn’t a number to complain it’s a online chat that take forever to get a reply. they will ask you for evidence although they don’t provide any evidence that the parcel was to big or heavy it’s just their word. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY

Easy to follow instructions, efficient service

Simply didnt turn up, after telling me to wait in between 8am and 6pm, and me paying £35. There was also no indication of time prior to payment, no ability to track the courier, and no ability to hone down the collection time (which didnt happen anyway).
17/02/25 by JW
Saved loads of money, hassle free. Will definitely use again!

Its a good service. The drop/collection points are everywhere and with longer hours they are more convenient than a post off8ce.
The costs are reasonable and delivery times are good.
