Had to send a parcel to Sri Lanka and Parcel Monkey provided much cheaper options than going direct. The whole process was straightforward and easy.

They picked up parcel when they said they would and delivered on time and they kept in touch with me when they picked it and let me know when it was due to arrive and it arrive slightly earlier so very impressed

No fuss whatsoever.
Dropped it off at Halfords. Was given a card to track the parcel.
Next thing it was delivered in Spain within the 5 days.
No mention of any damage either.
Thank you Parcel Monkey

excellent value for money and a really easy website to navigate

The service was actually excellent initially and provided a very easy way to post my parcel. What I didn’t love is the extra charges on top of the original quote and they were automatically taken from my credit card without authorisation. Also the reason for the extra charge seems incorrect as I personally weighed the boxed item at 1.6kg and paid for a parcel under 2kg and they told me it weighed 2.5kg which I know for a fact is incorrect. It seems a minimal charge but a dishonest one nonetheless.

Day 53 of claim and same nonsence from Parcel Monkey. They claim to have no telephones. A simple phone call could have sorted this weeks ago. Treat customers with utter contempt. I note others via social media have had exactly the same awful experience. I was told you raised a claim with Parcel Force but never told outcome. We even paid for extra insurance. Pay up now. Never again!

TURNED UP TO COLLECT AS PROMISED EXCELLENT SERVICE
28/03/19 by Dave Bewley
Parcel Monkey themselves were fine, however the two collections Ive ordered through them for DHL have been terrible.
The first took 3 attempts for collection - they couldnt find the house on the first attempt (its not difficult to fine but I received no phone call for directions despite them having my telephone number), the second attempt the next day similarly failed in that apparently there was nobody at home (despite me waiting in all day). Collection was finally made on the third attempt on day 3.
I put this down to bad luck and tried another collection with DHL, also dreadful but an improvement in that it only took two attempts over 2 days for collection!

If i had to rate zero star i would, very bad service especially communication. They have no contact details except live chat and its very annoying when you are stressed about a parcel missing or lost. Very very bad

completed all info before it had a wobble about my postcode and could find no reason as it said the area was not covered but the poscode for the neighbouring street worked. selected DPD but when arrived at the drop off destination they didnt have the necessary paperwork to complete my order. I had to travel to a different location. Not the fault of Parcel Monkey but to pay parcel monkey then be unable to complete the process was frustrating. Luckily the nearest drop off point aside from this was not too far but i nearly missed collection.

Great & easy to use

Only problem was that they are unable to give you an hour or two window for pick up, so I had to spend all day waiting for courier to turn up, and when you call customer service they advise you “any time between 8am and 6pm” and ask you to remain on the premises at all times during that time because once the driver left the depot they don’t have contact with him.

Spot on as usual.

Always happy with this service. The tracking system appears to have a gap between leaving UK and going out for loacal delivery. The first part is fine, the final delivery unbelievable, as you can watch the van trundling down your country lanes with your parcels! It’s jst the bit in between where there is a need for improvement. Still happy though!

Terrible customer care, I run a business these guys would ruin you given half the chance, There enhanced compensation is a total joke they wont pay out trust me , My advice go elsewhere there not called Monkeys for nothing! I have sent 100 of parcels with them them , They do not value their customers!
