Easy to use website. Local drop off point when it is convenient for yourself. Very fair pricing. Great communication via email which lets you know when your parcel will be delivered and again when it has been delivered. Would certainly recommend parcel monkey.

Well organised and kept up to date via text for collection. Posting a guitar is always a worry but it arrived to the buyer safe and sound. Good value too.

I posted an expensive sink through Parcel Monkey. It was couriered by Parcel Force who managed to smash it to pieces despite my very thorough packaging. Theres no insurance available for Ceramics/Porcelain so I am £180 out of pocket. Guess its not Parcel monkeys fault, as they arranged everything fine, but would you give more than one star after that?

Good prices. I will definitely recommend this to everyone

So very simple to use and it provides easy access to the most competitive options. I have recommended to friends and used many times...

Items end up being smashed up.

I booked a 48 hour international service, because I needed my package to arrive within 48 hours. After 48 hours my package had made it from London to Dartford. After 72 hours, the package hasnt reached its destination country, let alone been delivered. In the meantime, Parcel Monkey are not responding to my enquiries. After this utterly shambolic service, I will not be using Parcel Monkey again.

Really disappointing service - paid for same day express delivery. The parcel was picked up hours after the designated time on a Friday evening, which meant both the pick up and delivery fell outside of business hours, whih caused so many problems due to the urgent nature of the package. I wont be using Parcel Monkey again in a hurry.

My reason for such a low score is the parcel was collected on the 10 April @ 3.45 pm and so far one attempt to deliver thparcel has been made it is now the 22 April 2017

Excellent experience amazing service picked up and delivered door to door without any delays. Will highly recommended using Parcel Monkey any day.

Update: Despite Parcel Monkey asking for customers to email a manager on their contact system, and the acknowledgement from one of their minions that the request has been received, no manager has replied at all. 36 hours passed now. And to add insult to injury, they attempted to extortion payment for delivering the item they ****ed up with back to me, and then after argument, backed down on this cost but stated the parcel was to be with me yesterday, which it wasnt, and now I am being ignored again. At no point has there ever been an apology.

Getting it to the other side of the world was very efficient, but the time taken to get it from my local depot to my house was 6 days!!!! It was shown as being on the delivery vehicle for 4 days!!! That is the same amount of time it took to get from the UK to Australia!!!!

I paid almost £100 for a specific time slot and same day collection and delivery from a uk town (in the same town). This was extreamly important for me so fine with the price but they didnt collect the parcel in the timeframe at all - in fact its close of business now and nobody collected them! Im extreamly disappointed and will never recommend or use this service again - specially since I couldnt get a hold of anyone from their end straight away and the only advice the website says is to reschedule!

Excellent delivered in 3 days to germany from belfast no hassle and great price
21/04/17 by Customer Cathy OBrien
Amazing service my six parcels were collected within the time window they specified and I could track their delivery.
21/04/17 by Claire Furlong
Great price and quick shipping ...especially for international destinations. Goods always arrive intact. The only thing that needs improving is updating the tracking information so one knows (feels reassured) of whereabouts of parcel

First Class Service. Will Use Again.

If a company is only going to offer one channel for customer service, it should at least be good. Parcel Monkey only offer a live chat feature, no phone or email support. The live chat attendants are absolutely appalling- painfully slow to respond, and when they finally do theyre less than useless. After dropping off a parcel to a shop for it to still be sat there 6 days later, I had to suggest my own resolution of retrieving the parcel and taking it directly to the courier depot and the customer service rep couldnt even tell me that this would be ok. I will never be using this website again.

Excellent service

No problems at all. Delivered to Denmark in 6 days inclusive of Easter.

Parcel lost by the courrier. Courier only accessible via Parcel Monkey. Parcel Monkey claiming they cant refund me before they hear from courrier. Nightmare.
