Parcelforce lost the parcel, I found it in Basingstoke (due to an airtag) - when it should have been in Manchester. Their customer services copuldnt contact their depot when I told then where it was. They just said wait 24/48 hours for things to update! Not much use when are paying for next AM delivery for a reason...never again

The website is easy to use and enables you to choose which delivery company to use by showing the prices and benefits of all. I received my label and dropped off my parcel with no trouble.

Be very wary, they now offer 2 payment options for sending parcels to the USA, DDP or the customer pays duties on receipt, but no option for customers sending gifts under 100 dollars. They will take you to the checkout page and charge you an extra 10 pounds for the UPS duties fee and ALSO attach a customs charge, even if you have marked the parcel as a gift on the previous page. Where that money goes to is anyones guess. Really weird, sneaky profiteering.

Good service all round

Great selection of delivery options on Parcel Monkey with print at home or print at point of collection, drop off or collection options offered at a variety of prices, with various couriers. I like being given such a wide range of options with the possibility of adding on extra insurance on the contents.

Parcel Monkey failed to deliver a parcel, misquoted their own terms to avoid liability, offered a settlement below what their own courier provides by default, and then stopped responding entirely. The parcel was dropped at a designated FedEx drop-off point as directed by Parcel Monkeys own instructions, with a timestamped scan receipt as proof. It was booked on a next-day service. Within days it was clear nothing was moving. Over a week after drop-off it remained unlocated. It eventually found its way into Royal Mails network despite being dropped with FedEx, and was returned to me two months later with a £7 charge I had to pay to receive it. I was not notified at any point that it had been found or was being returned. By that point I had already refunded my eBay buyer £17.90. Their response to this was to cite a clause requiring me to be physically present at the time of collection. This applies to home collections, not drop-off services. The same clause, read in full, explicitly covers courier depots and store locations. They quoted half of it. They then offered a refund of the £6.17 carriage fee on the basis that no additional cover was purchased. A delivery service that does not deliver is not an insurance claim. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, a consumer cannot be left with nothing when no service whatsoever has been provided, regardless of what a companys small print says. FedExs own published Conditions of Carriage set a default liability of £12 per kilogram for intra-UK shipments, a figure Parcel Monkey as the contracting party are entitled to claim on your behalf. Their offer of £6.17 sits below even that floor, suggesting either an unwillingness to pursue their own sub-contractor or an indifference to doing so. Two further formal emails have received no reply. Mistakes happen in logistics. A misrouted parcel at a drop-off point is unfortunate but understandable. What is not acceptable is a company that contracts to provide a service, deflects responsibility at every turn with selectively quoted terms, offers a settlement that does not withstand basic legal scrutiny, and then simply does not respond. Parcel Monkey positioned themselves as the sole point of contact and accountability throughout this process. They have demonstrated neither.

ATROCIOUS COMPANY DPD LOST MY PARCEL VIA PARCEL MONKEY, I BELIEVE IT WAS ACTUALLY STOLEN, BUT IT CAN ONLY BE ONE OF THOSE TWO. (CD PLAYER WORTH £150 ON TOP OF A REPAIR OF IT WORTH £140) I STARTED A CLAIM WITH PARCELMONKEY OVER FOUR WEEKS AGO, THEY ASKED FOR PROOF OF THIS, PROOF OF THAT , DESCRIBED WHAT IT WAS, WHAT WAS THE PRODUCT AGAIN , DESCRIBE THE BOX , DO THIS DO THAT , 30 ODD MESSAGES BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS. THEY EVEN ASKED ME TO GET THE CUSTOMER TO SIGN A SHEET OF PAPER SAYING THAT THEY DEFINITELY HADNT RECEIVED THE PARCEL ??????? THE TRACKING PROVED IT HAD NEVER BEEN DELIVERED !!!!! THE PARCEL WAS COLLECTED (AND SUBSEQUENTLY LOST/STOLEN) ON THE 14TH MAY , AND YES ITS NOW THE 24TH OF JUNE !!! AND THEYVE FINALLY GOT BACK TO ME OFFERING ME £10.36 !!!!! I WANT A DIRECT CONTACT FOR DPD NOW BECAUSE IM GOING TO TAKE THEM TO THE SMALL CLAIMS COURT , THEY PROBABLY WONT DO THIS BECAUSE ITS ALL DONE VIA MESSAGES , AND DPD WILL JUST SAY GO THROUGH PARCELMONKEY YOUVE LOST ANY CHANCE OF EVER GETTING ANY FUTURE BUSINESS FROM ME AND I WILL MAKE SURE I PASS THE BAD REVIEW TO AS MANYA PEOPLE AS I CAN AN ABSOLUTE JOKE AFTER OVER 4 WEEKS OF MESSING AROUND . ParcelMonkey wrote "Ive contacted you via this platform to request some additional information; if you could respond at your earliest convenience that would be much appreciated." EDIT: AS OF 25/6 @21:00 NO YOU HAVENT - DONT LIE , NO SUCH CONTACT/REQUEST HAS BEEN MADE. EDIT@ AS OF 29/6 @13:45 **STILL** NO REQUEST FOR MORE DETAILS VIA TRUSTPILOT HAS BEEN MADE. EDIT AS OF 30/6/2026 @10:45AM STILL NO RESPONSE FROM THIS PLATFORM OR DIRECT ON PARCELMONKEY PLATFORM I will be forced to claim via the small claims court using section 49 unless you respond with a more appropriate offer YOURE ONLY MAKING IT WORSE FOR YOURSELVES BY NOT RESPONDING You initially suggested that youd asked for more info via the trustpilot platform (you didnt make such a request) And despite several edits on my original review telling you this , you are now not responding at all (either here on trustpilot or the parcelmonkey platform) So well see how you respond to a 2nd 1 star review

I left my parcel in the InPost box, they recorded it - it is on their system, then nothing. It is still being prepped almost a month later. Really bad service. I contacted InPost who referred me back to Parcel Monkey and they promised to look into it. I called again and they have still not contacted me. I can only assume they have lost my parcel. It really isnt that hard guys, pick up a parcel from a locked box and deliver it. Not exactly rocket science. Perhaps the old adage applies, you pay peanuts so expect monkeys. Im very dissatisfied with them, particularly as InPost just refer me back to Parcel Monkey and they just do nothing it seems. A complete waste of space. I wont be using either again my present never arrived.
