I booked a delivery on-line and delivered my parcel to the local PO The next day (Friday) without any problems. It was delivered to my family in the Netherlands 3 days later, on the Monday. A good service but quite expensive - over £13 which seemed a lot for a small parcel.

First time I had used a service like this. I found the website easy to use, process straight forward. Dropped off parcels at my local post office (Parcel Force) and they arrived swiftly to their destination. Would recommend.

I booked collection and paid for next day service. Parcel wasn’t collected - had to get in touch with customer service and they advised that parcel will be collected on next business day - they failed yet again to collect. Contacted their CS again and finally it was collected in the 3rd day - they also refuse to refund the amount they charged for next day service. So basically they charged for next day collection service and provided 3 days collection service. Not a professional approach though.

Arranged pick up on Wednesday for the next day -waited in all day it was collected at 16.14, Delivery was supposed to be next day delivery Friday but it didn’t arrive At destination until Monday 12pm!! No communication and unable to track on Courier website-complained on online form but have heard nothing from them So i would have to say Courier are letting you down parcel monkey i would have expected some sort of compensation on the cost too very bad service .

1. I paid extra for 2 day delivery, Parcel Monkey put it through as 3-5 day 2. The driver dropped my parcel off at the wrong depo - no one can tell me when to expect my parcel - no apologies - no help - i had to miss my flight - my parcel is a week late and i’m still waiting with no update 3. Parcel Monkey has no contact number, so there is no support in emergencies Overall bad experience will not being using them or the courier again!

Parcel collected from my local Post Office on Monday; delivered to Bordeaux in France on Thursday morning. No fuss, no hassle. And the price was very reasonable. Just make sure that your parcel is well wrapped, and that you put TWo of the provided labels on it, in case one is defaced. I always cover the labels with wide, clear tape to protect it from rain.

This was my first time using Parcel Monkey and I have to say I am very Impressed. I used it to send my daughter kitchen equipment at uni, the box was picked up from me at midday in London, and was with her by 10.30 the next morning in Manchester, all at a very reasonable price. I shall be using this service again,

I wish I found this website first. It would have saved me a lot of stressful hours.
Booking and completing all documentation was so easy and quick. Collection and delivery was as advertised. We had a bit of an issue with Customs in Zimbabwe but that is through no fault of Parcel Monkey.
I would definitely recommend Parcel Monkey to friends. Thank you.

Process was reasonably quick and painless. If there is any area that caused concern it was where to place the 2 labels that we printed off - as an infrequent shipper, I was uncertain if they needed to be together or perhaps placed top and bottom. That issue is probably a reflection on the sender...

Easy process and quick delivery. Sent two boxes from the UK to Ireland on Thursday with Parcel Express (through Parcel Monkey) and arrived on the following Tuesday.

Parcel delivered to the USA for half of the price which I was quoted by my local parcel store! Parcel Monkey uses well known companies like Parcel Force and FedEx at great prices.
What’s not to like!

I arranged a pick up from my home. i called before the collect time and cancelled my collection. I had asked that my money be returned to my bank account. No one has bothered to contact or email me. I still have not received a refund to date.
16/09/20 by Customer
Super fast , easy to use , very good price! Will definitely use again

This is possibly the worst parcel delivery company I’ve ever used. I waited in all day for my parcel to be collected. Courier the courier never showed. I complained to parcel monkey and they gave me no other explanation accept that it will now have to Be booked in the next day for collection. That’s now two days in having to wait for it to be collected. No apology or reasons why and just expect me to be ok with it. A disgusting service and reason why they’re cheap is Cus they don’t deliver!!!! Avoid them like the plague

I sent a coffee machine with parcel force via parcel monkey, machine arrived wrecked, pictures and statement from recipient sent to parcel monkey. I had paid for £400 insurance, after weeks of argueing , parcel monkey deliberatly trying to close down claim, they sent me £150 , they are an awful company, no phones just email, take your money and run. DO NOT send with them, much better firms out there, these are scammers pure and simple, you have been warned.

I chose them three weeks ago to ship a guitar from the UK to Spain. The carrier was supposed to be DPD, a reliable company. Unfortunately my shipment was subcontracted to SEUR, almost certainly the WORST shipper in Spain. Needless to say, my guitar, which was supposed to come in 3-4 days did not arrive at all in spite of several delivery notices. Weeks later, I managed to have it held at a Seur partner across town, where I wasted several hours to pick it up. With three companies involved in this fiasco, who’s to blame? I will say Parcel Monkey responded to my requests in a timely fashion, but after this experience, I would hesitate using them again.

The recipient said he didn’t sign for the consignment and now tells me 4 days later the awning had been dragged along the floor by somebody putting 3 holes in the roof this was a brand new awning costing me over £500 now it’s useless.please answer the following questions please 1)what is the policy for delivery.2) why would someone drag a parcel across the floor when it clearly states handle with care.Regards Ron Edwards

Absolutely brilliant, super easy and makes your life so so much easier!

I like Parcel Monkey for value and ease of use. However what was advertised as a 2 day service took much longer. Maybe it was the fault of Parcelforce but when I booked the service it was then clear it was an economy service and 2 days to get to a customer in Ireland was never going to happen I felt let down and annoyed that the claim in this instance for delivery was wrong.
15/09/20 by Smith David
I have never used this service before and hadn’t even heard of it. I was very impressed. Cheaper and faster than Royal Mail. Excellent service and very easy to use.

Parcel Monkey delivers most of the time is the courier that doesnt deliver.
