very useful service but seemingly restricted carrier options - carriage expensive when insurance added
21/04/23 by Mr David Gladman
Absolutely terrible service. Got charged over £100 for shipping a pair of boots, £60 initially and then an extra £40 later, after they said I had put the incorrect dimensions in which was nonsense. Since when did a show box measure over 1 metre!! Then they said I needed to provide photographic evidence of the packaging dimensions and weight which they knew I couldnt do as the parcel was the other side of the world at this point. Very poor service which has left me very much out of pocket.

Although it was next day, and I got thr to the drop off point in good time before 10:00, it still took 3 days to arrive

Unable to pass vital information on the carriers to keep parcels from being returned to sender.

Pathetic service no customer preference 2 out of 4 parcels were lost and they said they cant help. All of my other parcels were delivered smoothly. Courier says that you should contact your sender which is parcel money on record so its. just useless. Will not recommend it ????. just buy the service from the shipping company itself instead of these third-party useless services.

On ordering, the page offered £60 of free cover to the USA, but when my items were DAMAGED in transit, they refused liability.

I spent about an hour today booking a parcel to be sent to New Zealand, via FedEx through Parcel Monkey, including filling out all the customs descriptions for codes required. I paid and received an order confirmation from Parcel Monkey telling me my shipping details would be sent within 30 minutes. When nothing had happened after an hour I contacted them via Live Chat and was told that courier service did not deliver to my destination. No further explanation was forthcoming. I asked for a refund and was told it would take 3-5 days. Absolutely terrible and untrustworthy service - do not use.

Not happy with the service and so expensive I’m really I don’t advise this delivery company

Parcel returned to me after 1 attempt to be delivered! No help from DPD helpdesk, no help from parcel monkey helpdesk. The lady I webchatted to couldnt have been less interested in helping me. Told me shed send me more info later that day and didnt. Parcel turned up the following morning, quite battered, despite being insured and handle with care written on the side. Would not recommend to anyone and never use again.

So, I needed documents to arrive in as short as time as possible...and I wanted to save money ( who doesnt?). I found Parcel Monkey, got the price and expected delivery I wanted. And guess what? My documents arrived a day earlier than expected... how brilliant is that? Thank you to Parcel Monkey & DHL driver.

I really like Marcel Monkey, my first port of call for parcels either Sending or Collecting. I cant think how I might improve it as it works perfectly for me.

Sent a letter from UK to Cyprus. Size and weight correct at time of booking. Paid £23.67 for the item to be sent, 2 pieces of paper in a A4 envelope. Item took to DPD drop off point. Letter still has not been delivered to addressee in Cyprus. This letter has been travelling for nearly 2 weeks. Parcel Monkey are charging me an additional £5.67 for additional charges. Not sure what for I have wrote to parcel monkey and no positive answers. Would not use again.

Really fast delivery to the Seychelles from the the UK. Fast collection from home. Would absolutely use again
19/04/23 by Nicola
Paid for 24 hr service which didn’t happen 48 hrs they attempted delivery but no one was home because there tracking service didn’t up date received my parcel 3days later because it was weekend, tried to claim a refund which they declined because I didn’t opt to have my 24 hr service guaranteed so all in all quite a misleading and poor service which I won’t be using again.

First class service
18/04/23 by TC Lowestoft
Processed my parcel return via UPS. Heard nothing, when I called I was told I would have to pay extra for collection. When booking, it asked for collection address. An additional £5.00 to be picked up from house, utterly ridiculous ????
18/04/23 by Jonathan Lambert
Well pleased top class service the delivery drive was very polite and helpful
18/04/23 by Stephen John Peirson
Delivery undamaged which now days is a rare thing,even though the delivery was delayed one extra day it got there in one piece.
18/04/23 by Eric
They said my parcel was delivered. They delivered it to someone who was not even the recipient and they dont know where it is. So you did a terrible job
18/04/23 by Sasha
Very easy to follow instructions and the rest was easy.
My vinyl record player was returned to the supplier swiftly and fully tracked throughout its journey.
Excellent service.
