Eventually it was but collecting to be
I do feel compelled to leave a review as some of the reviews I have read online are horrendous, however my experience has been pretty good all in all. If you are not in a hurry to receive items and if you are on a budget, Parcel Monkey is definitely a good option. I did eventually receive all my items. The last parcel took just over a week to arrive instead of the 3 working days, not a massive issue for me. I sent 14 parcels in total in 2 shipments, via ParcelForce, from the UK to France, all personal items, no gifts or new items. A couple of parcels only were damaged but I think its my fault for packing the items improperly or it could be Parcelforces fault. The only annoying thing is you cant book a collection slot. You can end up waiting all day for the driver. But other transporters that offered collection slots were much more expensive. Also I ended up paying quite a bit of custom fees even though everything was used items, if you ship internationally, consider adding you own paperwork, I also used sendmybag for a couple of suitcases and did not have to pay any extra fees. Still once again it works out cheaper than sendmybag even after custom fees.
Online booking system easy. I use it mainly for sending abroad. All custom forms and labels are complete and only need to be printed. We select Parcel Force as it is a very competitive rate and makes it through French customs in about 2 working days. The only annoyance is there is no indication of collection time and this varies to any part of the day.
Easy to use.
Lowest price and fast efficient service. Would definitely recommend.
Parcel collected on time. Arrived in France and cleared customs fine took 1 day longer then I expected but very happy with service.
