ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. They will loose your parcel, then start asking STUPID questions like "whats the delivery address" when OBVIOUSLY they know what the address is ! They will make many more attempts just to waste as much time as possible, so you get tired of it and decide not to make a claim in the end. DISGUSTING PEOPLE. oh, 1 more thing: if you complain on their facebook page they will BLOCK YOU! dodgy con-artists and cowards - thats what they are !

Awful awful awful please stay away I read all the bad reviews and took a gamble hopefully nobody else does. If you do you will need photographic and video evidence of the weight of your parcel as once its gone they WILL steal money off your credit card telling you your parcel magically weighs much more than when first posted mine put on 6 kilos ?? I contacted them and they told me photographic proof was needed for them to return MY MONEY so I contacted the parcel company who confirmed it weighed 4.8 kilos not the 11 kilos they said it weighed hence the extortion. after putting this evidence to them theyve stopped answering my emails and still havent returned my money. To rub salt in the wound the parcel still hasnt been delivered 2 weeks after it should have been. GO ELSEWHERE PLEASE HEED MY ADVICE DOESNT MATTER THEY ARE TWO QUID CHEAPER THE GRIEF WILL KILL YOU...

ParcelMonkey does it again. Important parcel to a relative on Australia - arrived safely and cheaper than mail. Very easy-to-use website. Dont generally get on very well with comparison sites but this one is excellent.

surprised to receive e mail from south african courier company i had never heard about. further surprised that i was told i would have to pay more money for customs in SA?? Nothing mentioned to me in this regard from parcel monkey and a kind of ransom - if i dont pay they wont deliver the parcel and it is stuck 12000km away. Parcel monkey should make people aware that an other company will contact them and further money may be payable . . .

Very easy website to use for bookings. Straightforward drop-off system arranged with Royal Mail Parcelforce. COmparatively inexpensive. Minimum paperwork. So, well done Parcel Monkey, and well doen Royal Mail Parcel Force.

I was a bit sceptical at first. Posted a metre long 20x20cm parcel weighing 27kg for £15, fully insured, 48 hour service, Including collection
I was amazed. Brilliant service. Will certainly be using them again. Happy to recommend!

Excellent service, sending parcels to family in Israel.

I was very impressed with the service and would have given 5 stars except for one thing in the booking procedure. I was sending multiple items to the USA as Xmas gifts and you cannot put country of manufacture for each individual item, you can only enter one for all items, Then when you print off the pro-forma for customs every item has a country of manufacture beside it meaning that I had to write in the real countries manually. I have to hope this does not affect customs in the USA

Fantastic service each parcel has got to its destination in the time frame given
Thank you Parcel Monkey

Parcel Monkey does offer quite competitive price for courier service on the market; however, I have lost count that their couriers just didn’t show up for collection in several occasions. Especially when I booked for Air Express service, I really hope the goods can be delivered within the time frame they advertised and charged me for. It’s more like a hit and miss, just need to test your luck. The most frustrating thing is, they claim that they are the middle man, cannot figure out why the parcel is not collected. I really hope this management level of Parcel Monkey can improve their service by intergrating with their service provider better.

Supposed to be delivered in 4/5 days but its still not delivered. At least is possible to track it... Ill come back and update the review when (if) the parcel will be delivered.....
16/12/17 by Customer
Very straightforward online experience, no problems with tracking the parcel. It was delivered in the time given.
16/12/17 by John Hobbs
WOW this was cheap...... i mean the service not the price. Following up to my previous post the manager emailed me and passed me over to someone else who took days to reply. Just more evidence of passing the blame , i still havent had an acceptable outcome from the company for damaging my product. Seeking legal advice now . If you have money to waste and dont value your business stick to Parcel Monkey , but if you do, look somewhere else dont be conned like i have.

Quick efficient service!
16/12/17 by Customer
Easy to use, just selected the service I wanted and printed the label. They scanned it at the post office and that was it. The link to the tracking is useful too.

Easy, quick and a lot cheaper then going to the post office!

Sent a consignment to France weighing a total of 22kg. Got picked up by PF as arranged and was easy to track. Parcels were received in 3 days with no problems. A really good price - saved me £60 for same service if I took to P.O. can’t fault them at all.

All round excellent experience.
Easy to do online, reasonable price, promptly picked up and arrived as promised.

Easy booking for DPD, drop off at Sainsburys in Tunbridge Wells Sunday morning, delivered to Birkenhead Monday evening. Pretty good going.
15/12/17 by Alan
They were great. From the Uk to Southern Ireland in a couple days and way cheaper than Royal mail. All in one large box, under 20kg. Cheap, Cheap, Cheap!!! Will definately use them again.
15/12/17 by Colleen
I had to wait at home all day not knowing when my parcel would be collected. Eventually arrived at 5pm.

15/12/17 by jack frost
Terrible, failed to collect on Thursday tried to arrange a recollection for 2 working days later(4 days as there was a weekend)which was no use to me after much pressuring from me I was told collection had been arranged for the next day(Friday), still not collected so I contacted the courier(YODEL) directly to be told that no re-collections had been arranged for me so Parcel Monkey on line chat staff LIED to me , Yodel hung the phone up when I asked to speak to a manager. 3 to 5 days to get a refund when they are quick to take the money from your account. , The Royal Mail and Parcel Force may not be perfect but they are way better than this lot. I will continue to pay higher prices for the service. Overall a terrible experience.

Amazing service
15/12/17 by EMMA STUCKEY
I have used parcel monkey befor without issue but this time having chosen DPD (same as last year) I found that DPD had no record of my parcel & I had to chase things up to then find it was on parcel2gos site with their tracking number, totally different to the original. Also although parcels were delivered ok which granted in the main thing I only found out when both recipients contacted me as after a further 2 days from actual delivery the tracking was still showing as "in transit".
