Paid for 24 hour service but pick up didn’t happen. On parcel monkey website they blame it on the courier and take no responsibility. You have to get into a web chat with them to get it rebooked and get money back but not worth my time.

We are a small trailer business that sends trailer parts out to customers daily.
We have been using Parcel Monkey now for approximately 6 months.
We cant fault the service that is provided. During that 6 months we have not had a single problem with shipments. Our customers are always satisfied to.
We are extremely happy with the service that Parcel Monkey provides and highly recommend the service.

Once again a superb service.

I like that all the courier services can be viewed and compared rather than having to log onto individual sites (especially as some of them are very user unfriendly).Good Range of postage options including insuring high value items.
I managed to reduce the price I was encouraged to pay by vendor using their preferred courier, by £20. (As an aside -thats the last time I order something from a well known High Street retailer who has now taken over most of the designer clothes shops I use. Only free return shopping from now on.)
Easy to see status of parcel on Parcel Monkey too.
Recommended. Will use again.

Reliable service.

Filled out all the forms, paid my fee, recieved documents which I forwarded to where the parcel was to be collected and that was the end of that. No parcel recieved, no information as to why I didnt receive it and no follow up to try and locate it. Same as everything these days, takes money and doesnt care about the customer after that.

Rubbish, inconsistent, poor customer service. Just utterly terrible. We are a business and ship worldwide, so our experience of Parcel Monkey is accumulated over many years. I recommend anyone wanting a stress free service to read this review 1. Waiting times on delayed parcel enquiries is just utterly ridiculous. sometimes left waiting 3 weeks, constantly chasing them, promised a reply within 48 hours. Bearing in mind eBay give businesses 3 days to reply to cases, this was useless & we ended up losing hundreds of pounds on several occasions. 2. On a number of occasions, we got extra charge notifications. This is 100% a con. I have no reason to lie about this, but when booking parcels in, we round up to the nearest CM & then add 1 CM per dimension, and also add 0.50KG and round up to the nearest KG when booking in and quoting, for example if its 30x30x30 2.32 kg, we book in as 31x31x31 4KG. Yet still, these con artists send over extras charges & blame the 3rd party courier. They offer no protection for us, their customer, and take the money regardless of evidence. They cant/refuse to send any proof of their alleged dimensions. On 1 occasion i was able to get a scan of an item we sent that was apparently matching dimensions length and width, but the scan proved this was around 60x20 as it was a long suspension fork spring kit. Each time i emailed i got a different rep, its just a nightmare & how theyre allowed to operate like this is beyond madness. We have now moved BACK to another courier who are equally as rubbish, but theyre less likely to send the extra charges. I stress, keep away from these con artists. Once they have your booking, theyre likely to do what they want. Yes, some deliveries make it there on time, no issue, but id say 50% of items sent (up to 5 a day) we had issue with. Theyre shocking. I promise you will regret using this clowns.

Boxes didn’t get picked up until 4th delivery attempt.

Absolutely awful service we had paid for two parcels to be picked up from our home address to be delivered next day in Birmingham for our twin daughter’s birthdays and no one came. If this wasn’t bad enough I got in touch for a refund and they only refunded me for one parcel I have contacted them on several occasions and now they won’t even acknowledge my messages. Be warned what a monkey business business. I have left the consignment number so hopefully they will refund me and finally put an end to this. PM10441756
