Having put on the weight and size paid the price asked to be messaged a week later saying you had undergarments and would be taking another £2.80 was bad enough of lying to hearrange from the parcel recipient that item arrived broken

actually booking on the internet and pick up - great but was not advised of further custom charges in new zealand and now struggling to get this parcel through customs and with time difference this is very difficult - also on top of this DHL are now suggesting they might charge storage fees - very disaapointing this is not part of your information

Very slick service. Was the best price I could find. Really pleased with Parcel Monkey and will be using again.

I use Parcel Monkey for large or heavy parcels that are outside the range of normal parcel services or for overseas shipments and they usually come up trumps.
However recently they gave me a low estimate a couple of times based upon initial information while the actual cost based upon full information was higher. Hence only 4 stars.

Le service parcelmonkey en soi est correct, mais nutilisez surtout pas DPD !!! Jai annulé, Le colis nayant pas été retiré, après 10 jours dattente ! Inacceptable et incompétents total.. Avoid DPD when you choose the company that will collect your package. 10 days waiting to collect my goods so I canceled because never picked up!!

My first experience with this company and all went well

Arranged for parcel to be collected on 05/07/17 and paid for next day delivery as there was an urgency for the parcel to arrive asap. The courier did not turn up, I contacted them by web chat and they said the courier would attend the next day 06/07/17. Guess what, they didnt. Again I contacted them and they said the courier would attend the next day 07/07/17 fininally they did. Owing to being the weekend the parcel was delivered on 10/07/17. The was late and cause great inconvenience and financial loss. The web chat is rubbish and there is no contact number to speak to anyone. Parcel monkey - bunch of monkeys - would not recommend.

All good and parcel arrived on time. Ive used them a few times before and will continue to do so.

Worst company I have ever used for booking a parcel. They make fake promises and mislead the customer by giving wrong delivery date information on their website. If you speak to courier directly, they would say there is no such service available. They dont have a phone helpline only email. May be 1 star is for email customer service team who were quite quick to respond otherwise nothing good about this company. I advise you to speak to courier company directly before you book parcel with parcelmonkey so you know if that service exists which Parcel Monkey is offering or they are just trying to trap a customer for money

Excellent service at reasonable price.

ParcelMonkey in themselves were great. They delivered as far as the UK side of matters were. The only feature that takes a bit of getting used to is that any contact is via a virtual internet enquiry service (i.e. no contact telephone to speak to someone). However the consultants were quick to respond & reply. The reason I didnt give ParcelMonkey 5 stars is because of an issue that arose on the recipient side (in South Africa). The agent there acting for DPD (the UK agent I selected) made an error which delayed the delivery of my parcel by one week in South Africa.

Excellent service and certainly good value. Will definitely use again.

I bought an item off ebay and the seller didnt want to get involved with posting or printing out labels. I received my item a day later for a very reasonable price.

Llevo dos años usando Parcel Monkey y nunca he tenido ningun problema, hasta hoy. Habia contratado un envio desde Reino Unido hasta España con tiempo suficiente para que llegara con dos dias de antelacion. Deberian haber recogido mi paquete hace dos dias y no se ha presentado nadie a recogerlo, aun habiendo reorganizado otra recogida para el dia siguiente al original. Recibi dos franjas horarias en las que hubiese tenido que ser recogido y en ninguna, ninguno de los dos dias se ha presentado nadie ni han contactado conmigo en ningun momento. La recogida es de una oficina asi que no es posible que no me hubiese dado cuenta yo o mis 29 compañeros de que llamaban a la puerta. Siendo asi intente contactar con Parcel Monkey para averiguar que es lo que pasaba y la unica solucion que me podia dar la borde del chat fue volver a organizar otra recogida para el dia siguiente. Esta solucion ya no me es valida ya que no llegaria a tiempo asi que he pedido la devolucion del dinero y la chica del chat ha dejado de contestar. Me parece increiblemente poco profesional la forma en la que se trata a los clientes en esta compañia cuando hay algun problema. Aun habiendo usado la compañia por tanto tiempo y sin problemas (a parte de la rotura de una de las maletas que envie con ellos) siento decir que despues de este desplante tan grande no volvere a usarlos para enviar nada.

My experiences are mostly poor. They will do whatever they can to not pay out for damages for well boxed items. I would advise that you go direct to a parcel services web site and cut the middle man to prevent any bother sending items

Yet again courier never turned up making my delivery late, consequently have unhappy customers. This is the last time I will use ParcelMonkey. They should at least offer to deliver my parcels free as some form of compensation for such poor service!!!!!!!!
