Good service, plenty of options

Very disappointed. The only benefit is that they collect from your home. Then it all gets into the poor area. 1. The sheer complexity of measuring, weighing, getting a quote, filling out their customs declaration forms, printing off and fitting labels in waterproof envelopes etc is unnecessary iny point of view. If I take the parcel to a post office, I have already wrapped it and, because I send stuff overseas regularly, I fill in a tiny customs declaration form and stick it on the parcel. 2. Parcel Monkey collect, take your parcel to a central point from where they pass it to Parcel Force! You can achieve that yourself by going to a post office. 3. They claim to deliver in 5 working days. No they dont. 10 days to Australia. 4. A parcel to Thailand incurred taxes (for two calendars and a strip of cloth) far exceeding the actual value of the contents and, more galling, A HANDLING CHARGE! I paid for door to door delivery. Why then does the parcel incur additional handling charges? 5. Two weeks after delivery Parcel Monkey emailed me saying that they were taking another amount from my credit card because for some reason they miscalculated the fee they were charged by Parcel Force. Not my problem and whats more its a bl**dy cheek to do this. It amounted to about another 5%. My advice is pack your parcel, address it, make a list of the contents, individual value of contained items and their weights, if you have a customs declaration form at home fill it out, otherwise the post office will help you, take it to the post office, they weigh it an give you delivery options, pay, get your receipt and leave. Its far, far simpler and guaranteed. And it means that the item IS delivered to the recipient, no additional handling fees, and tax, if applied, is fair. I wont touch Parcel Monkey ever again. They made a monkey out of me.

Excellent service. I’ve always been impressed when I’ve used them to send parcels to Australia. They are reliable, collect and deliver when they say they will.

I am thrilled with the service received from Parcel Monkey and highly recommended them. I was wary at first due to the only company to provide an affordable option but the service was first class. Parcel picked up as stated, able to track all the way to Australia and delivered in good order. It took 10 days which is brilliant given the current situation and reduced flights. Thank you Parcel Monkey.

Great service over all, fast delivery to island.
Tracking could be improved, as it’s not clear.

I used Parcelmonkey for the first time and was really impressed. The website was easy to navigate and I was able to send the parcel with my favourite carrier DPD for a fraction of the normal cost. After convenient local dropoff it arrived in Ireland within the promised three days. When using Parcelforce it often takes 2+ weeks as it gets handed over to An Posta in Ireland which takes forever. I will be using Parcelmonkey again in the future. Highly recommended!

My parcel was picked up 9/11 by Courier should have been next day delivery. After many days of emails back and forth my parcel was eventually delivered 19/11. I never received an explanation as to what went wrong. No apology or even a good will gesture. This is the first and last time Ill be using Parcel Monkey or Courier.
