Great service.

An easy service to use and bag was picked up in the morning of the collection day which was helpful, as they dont give you a time slot or even indicate if it will be morning or evening pick up. Had to email to ask how to track the bag (sent internationally) as they use a different system. The bag was then meant to be delivered within 4-5 days but took a week.

Booked for next day collection nobody turned up.cant speak to anyone from parcel monkeys via phone. Instead they ignore your complaints on the online chat.will never ever use again. Paid for a service that I clearly didnt get within a specified time. Fuming was a understatement. I guess you get what you pay for. Its in the name "monkeys"

Really bad and unprofessional and unacceptable response and dishonest approach towards investigation, after being claimed just £60 liability cover which they have offered, despite third party involved through eBay and papal they didnt accept the claim, the decision was ended based on argument not based on justice. no investigation has been taken......

My title says it all, posted on Monday, emailed recipient to say it is on next day delivery, its now Thursday.! I posted two parcels through Parcelmonkey via DPD for next day delivery didnt arrive. I posted three parcels on Monday for next day delivery via Royal Mail at the same time, the post office and DPD drop shop are next to each other. All three Royal Mail parcels were delivered the next day. I have, on a couple of occasions over the years, had next day deliveries by Royal Mail delivered a day late, it happens, however in the circumstances Royal Mail re funded the postage quickly and in full without quibble which is a great gesture. Will Pacelmonkey refund me?..............I doubt it I suppose Parcelmonkey CS will now post a reply asking me to raise a ticket for both parcels. No need to ask me. I raised one for each parcel on the 12th asking what was happening and asking for a refund. Ive had replies to both, however, though it is exactly the same problem for each parcel, oddly enough, the replies to each ticket are different ! Why is that ? The parcels eventually were delivered. So Parcelmonkey, I paid you, you paid DPD, DPD failed. Where is the problem in Parcelmonkey refunding me and claiming the money back from DPD ? There does not need to be an inquest, which appears to be going on at the moment, between Parcelmonkey and DPD to resolve all the details. As far as the customer, me, is concerned the parcel wasnt delivered on time, I neither want to know, nor care why it happened, I simply want a refund. Its not too much to ask...................is it? EDIT Amazing..........not............I have already got tickets going for both parcels and now Im asked to raise further tickets, see Mikes reply below !! Why do I need to raise further tickets Mike ?

Yes, very happy with Parcel Monkey, though I think you have to be careful in selecting the carrier. In my opinion Hermes & Yodel have been at times frustratingly unreliable.

It was easy to book, print labels and drop off parcel. Device and tracking was excellent. But unfortunately it came damaged. I packaged and used a bubble wrap, but content inside leaked. Will still use your service in future, if need it.

My first time using PM, after a string of poor performance by a competitor, and with a lot more business to come I need a reliable courier service. So far not so good. The booking went OK, though the courier was a day later than I was advised in collecting. After that it all went dead. The tracking didnt work, the tracking number I was given said to be invalid, no info on if the delivery has been made or not, so left wondering.

Didnt get a text with the 1 hour collection time as per the info On collection the driver refused to sign the receipt provided by Parcel Monkey and was somewhat rude when asked to do so!
16/07/17 by Customer
I am very impressed by how easy it is to use Parcel Monkey.
My parcel to Spain posted on a Monday arrived on the Wednesday, how quick was that!
Thank you Parcel Monkey

Very good service, driver collected parcel and it was delivered the next day. What more could you ask for? Tracking worked, price was reasonable.
It would be nice if you could have a delivery time window, that may depend on who the carrier is though.
Overall very happy with the service

I always use parcel monkey and would highly recommend them, competitive prices and great service x
15/07/17 by Natalie Stringer
Theyre happy to take your money for extra insurance, but wont payout when your parcel has been damaged by a courier. The parcel had a big hole in it but they refused to accept the claim, Ive used them for years and didnt expect such ****py service. Needless to say I wont be using them again.

Just do well what it says on the tin!
Thank you

I am their every day customer and they never let me down.
They are the best and most important affordable. Definitely would recommend it.

Overall good service. But incorrect information given regarding dpd. As of july 2017 halfords DO collect on behalf of dps. Your website said they do not. Which nearly resulted in me not using their service.
