I booked with Parcel Monkey for my delivery with Parcel Force 24h. Unfortunately Parcel Force sent my parcel to the wrong hub. Parcel Monkey were very helpful at chasing this with the courier. Ultimately the parcel was delivered 11 days later, however, the experience with Parcel Monkey was great, they chased the courier, provided updates, and chased them for a refund, which is far better service than had I gone directly to the courier (which I had in the past). Parcel Monkey are like your personal support team who respond much better than the courier themselves.

The collection process was fine - but I was told it would be 3 days from collection to delivery in China. My parcel (containing an important document) was sent on 21st September, and my client still has not received it. Apparently, it is still being exported, and it was still sitting in the export depot on 29th September. Also, this morning I have been charged a mysterious £8.70, which I now have to query.

Excellent service.
Kept full informed as to when my parcel was to be delivered and delivered within the time scale advised.
I was also surprised at the value for money of the service provided.

Despite constantly checking tracking it was delivered without saying out for delivery. Was left beside bins - not happy as would have asked neighbours to take parcel in if i had been notified

I have only used Parcel Monkey once from needing to shop around for a couple of boxes to send to my son at uni. It was easy, quick and reliable from my experience.

I am disgusted and disappointed. I sent a parcel as a surprise gift. I used a trusted courier… and the person I sent the gift to had to pay €11 to receive the parcel. Please explain why. I will NEVER use your service again.

Parcels get collected so I guess they’re doing what they say!
Lose 1 star for constantly asking for reviews after every parcel dispatch.
Getting tedious.

Posted a gift via Pforce to rural Kenya.
Arrived at local Post Office in under two weeks. Import duty had to be paid and was more than expected but the delivery was a success.

False advertising of delivery dates for courier services , booked and paid for an international courier that you stated would take 5-7 days to be delivered , 2weeks later parcel still not arrived and no one can tell me where it is and no one bothered to try and track it down . Awful will never use service again .

Was more than pleased with Parcel Monkeys service. Collected on time, and delivered even before I expected it to be. Could not have done better.

I would say its a good service, it gets let down by couriers and thats the same with Amazon I find. I only book parcels for parcelforce and drop at the post office, then its ok. Why I dropped a star is because EVERY time I book a parcel this stupid thing comes up and stops me telling me to check. Also this time I had to fiddle about with payment, its been automatic up til now. So getting fiddlier one step at a time

Electronic item was working when left for collecting. Recipient stated item wasn’t functioning and remote control was cracked. This was not the condition it was packed.

You Asked me how you got on, well the parcel late and your tracking update is unclear . You did ask. Epic fail
01/10/22 by Mr. Andrew
Absolutely awful company. Took insurance out for an expensive gift I sent . Parcel got lost and the delivery company took full responsibility for it. However parcel monkey refused to pay out. Now I’m £800 down and they don’t care

Still waiting collection 2 weeks on and no reply to previous message.

1st class. Can not fault it

Difficult to find a carrier for extra long packages. Parcel Monkey came up with a great deal and delivered on time.
01/10/22 by Customer
2 weeks after dropping off my parcel its nowhere to be seen. Turns out it was never collected but Parcel monkey cant help me after 3 days of contacting them and asking for it to be escalated. Its a high value item which is a complete loss. If you are considering using their service dont. Their customer service when things go wrong is non existent and you will be left out of pocket.

Posted a parcel to my parents in France and it has not arrived and they have no idea where it is we were told it was in France now it’s back in the UK they are very good at taking your money but absolutely hopeless at delivering on any of their promises if you notice on their Facebook page they have to say put comments because of the level of customer dissatisfaction
30/09/22 by RD
Quick and easy to use, courier turned up within the time specified and delivered at the correct time!
30/09/22 by Lisa
If i could leave a no star review i would. Absolute dog dump. If you ask them to do anything after the initial collection of a parcel their world falls apart.
