Excellent service. We use them regularly to send parcels abroad. Parcels never get lost and are always delivered on time.

Id never heard of Parcel Monkey until a friend recommended them to me .. I had a large /heavy parcel to send and to be honest didnt know where to start to find a company that would do it for me or any idea of how much it would cost ...
Parcel Monkey solved the problem by giving me a list of companies and the various prices available to me..
Ive already told other friends about Parcel Monkey and Ill certainly use them againthe next time I have a parcel to send

Lost my parcel so goes without saying that it was an unacceptable experience. I should have just left my parcel where it was to save the money it cost for them to professionally lose it. Thanks for nothing.

booked at 8am Monday 27th to be picked up same day, did not happen, next morning was told could not be picked up today but will be tomorrow, was eventually picked up late wed, was told it will be delivered tomorrow thurs, didnt happen, finally arrived late Friday afternoon, paid £17.00 for this service, not impressed. Not only did it inconvenience myself, but for four days my poor mum had to wait in.

If i could give no stars i would! Parcel was returned top parcel monkey as the courier couldnt find the address apparantly, even though the address was correct. sent a replacement using another courier to the same address and it arrived. parcel monkey wanted to charge me for the return!!!! they have now "disposed" of my parcel, so not only have i lost the cost of the item, i have the replacement cost and additional courier costs involved. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! THEY HAVE ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS!!

Very easy to use your service thank you.
Delivery took longer than expected but that may have been due to a weekend in the middle.
Certainly cheapest rate to South Africa I could find. Will use again.

I arranged a next day collection last week, had to phone them to chase, they eventually collected. Yesterday I came home from work to find they had redelivered my parcel to me instead of returning it to the business it was meant to be delivered! **** service will not be using again.

So first time user. Less than half the price of Royal Mail to post uk to Swiss. Did exactly what it said on the tin. I’ll be honest I measured my parcel generously so no arguments on size and weight. Filled in the very easy to follow instructions and it could not of been easier. I’ve been raving about it and telling all my friends I’ve found a fix to the crazy expense of postage. Well done and thanks.

The service was brilliant but instead of waiting at home for the whole day so the parcel could be picked up, it would have been good to have an approximate time for pick up.

100% service

I have used parcel monkey since 2014... Spectacular service each time. Courier has never failed to turn up and they always come in time.
05/12/17 by Customer
In general very good prices for sending parcels. However, the main gripe that I have with this company is that I have to wait some time before the labels (parcelforce) are emailed to me. Usually it takes up to 15 minutes but the last order through parcelmonkey took over an hour. PM states upto 60 mins I could be waiting for the labels which I just do not understand when other companies allow the label to be printed instantly after purchase. When I complained through the live chat, I was told that there was an IT problem as the cause for the delay. As a customer it would be helpful if the company posted the issue on the homepage so that potential customers would be made aware before making an order. Most people would like to print off their labels ASAP once they make a purchase.

Very pleased with the service will use you again!

Perfect. Nice and quick
05/12/17 by Martin Thoroughgood
No notification parcels werent being collected. Took agent ages to reply to me on live chat. Shoddy service
05/12/17 by Customer
Appalling! They did not collect the parcel, offered no apology or compensation. Will never use again.
05/12/17 by Lauren
fast efficient service and easy to use

International parcel sent by Thursday and delivered on Tuesday!
Hassleless during the whole process, I will definitely recommend others.
05/12/17 by Customer
Unfortunatly unable to track once it had left the uk so dont know if parcel has arrived or where it is
05/12/17 by Mr Mccarron
Absolutely terrible. Lost our parcel. Noone to contact. When someone does get in contact they ask the same question over and over again. Avoid at all costs.
05/12/17 by Customer
Job well done: fast and efficient, best ever experience. 5 star reccomendation.
05/12/17 by Customerfeatherstone
This is a service I can really recommend and Im usually too lazy to rate services. This is easy to order, price is unbeatable and you know exactly where the package is. Well done guys.
05/12/17 by Customer
Ripped off. First and last time I use you. Quoteca price to lock you in then debit more money from your account after delivery with no redress
05/12/17 by Ripped off customer
Very easy service, fast delivery! Spot on. Will use again. Highly recommended
05/12/17 by Emma
Everything went as promised regarding collection.
05/12/17 by Judith Coote
Monkey is certainly correct when it comes to these guys, arranged 12 parcels to be collected payment confirmed and receipt for payment received. Parcels not collected, spoke to several people via live chat no apology for explanation offered apart from saying i hadnt paid??? Sent proof f order and payment and they refused continue to answer my query.
05/12/17 by Matthew Garner
It would have been a five but the details on my parcel should have been given to the driver all the driver had was the postcode of the industrial estate but on the parcel it had all the information where to pick up the parcel from
05/12/17 by Peter smith
