Delivered great

The entire experience was synergertic and the delivery was on time and in good condition. Considering I was sceptical about using the service, now I cannot recommend it enough. Try it and if your experience was similar to mine, you will be a regular customer just like me.

If there was a Negative button, or a button for 0 stars then i would have clicked it... STAY WELL AWAY from these guys, their customer services is shocking... we have had a parcel due for delivery to a customer in Europe, the item has been delivered damaged, and returned to us - despite paying over the odds to have the parcel covered for damages, we are still waiting for this parcel to be covered, with no response, and no answers from them... Their customer services is awful.. Cheap carriage but you get what you pay for, dont use them and definitely do not pay for the added insurance as it is simply not true... will be seeing them in the small claims court for sure.

A friend had left her Handbag behind, we needed to get it to her quickly. ~Parcel Monkey were collecting the parcel from our home address within a couple of hours of the Booking. and delivered successfully next morning.
Thank You Parcel Monkey

Choice of carrier etc was good but the carrier, DPD, smashed the parcel and totally destroyed the contents.

I paid for Courier next day as it was important to get it there the next day ... it took two days to arrive ... not good

Works very well, only one time the packages took longer by a couple of days than predicted, well worth 5 stars

Beware!! First and last experience with this. Our parcel was a failed delivery (one attempt) then immediately returned to sender. Sender apparently is no longer the sender but Parcel Monkey themselves who have it delivered to them in the far south of England with 3 options for the actual owner. 1. Pay more than you did to send in the first place plus £5 admin + vat to get your parcel back. 2. Collect from depot free of charge (Southampton). 3, They will dispose of it. One redeeming factor is that we had it returned to us free after complaining we had no time to clarify their inability to deliver and contact recipient to see what went wrong.

Easy to use and best price options.

Ive had the WORST EXPERIENCE ever with this company. My overseas parcel was collected but never sent on. Courier (the courier they used) proved they had sent the package back to the Parcel Monkey Depot for them to return it to me (signed for by M Roberts & have proof of this). However Parcel Monkey keep giving me contradictory responses. Awful customer service! Still no package, I just want my parcel back, with a tracking number & return date & Im owed a refund #6114445 PM7374408

Communication is appalling. Online system doesnt respond to queries- the staff just churn out automated-style sentences that offer no solutions. There is no phone number and no complaints procedure. The only help is the online chat. Useless. I filled in all the requested documentation and attached it all to the parcel. I was told it would be 5 days until it reached its destination. But no. Once collected, suddenly there was a need for more paperwork. ...Documents that had to be uploaded in a certain format...formats that were declined as unacceptable when I tried to upload them... documents that changed after Id submitted them- suddenly a new version was required (but I was provided with an old version to complete...again). This farce has continued for a month. And now they are claiming that because I havent provided the form they requested in the format they want (I have sent it to them in every format known to man- doc docx xls txt jpg png pdf) that they are going to be forced to return it to me. I will be charged for this return, of course. They attempt to blame the courier- so I have contacted the courier directly for support. The courier were lovely, but they had not heard of me or my parcel and the issue I was telling them about was nothing to do with them. If special forms are required, why do Parcel Monkey not provide all of these at the time of purchase. I had to download 3 labels to go on my parcel in various wallets- another would have made no difference at that point in time. But waiting until they have the parcel in some depot at the other end of the country and demanding documentation it is impossible to provide is just insanity. I repeatedly asked them for a workaround to help me provide them with the info they needed, but I only got bog standard replies back which offered zero assistance. My parcel still hasnt made it to its destination 1 month on. I dont know if it ever will.

This was excellent service, i had previously tried with other parcel carriers and found it all to difficult. Parcel Monkey was the clearest and easiest application to use and my parcel was international. They collected when they said they would and delivered when they said they would. I could track the parcel all the way. I will definately use this service again without hesitation. Great service and extremely competative, best price i could find. I would definately recommend Parcel Monkey. Many thanks guys

I arranged a next day pick-up through Parcel Monkey with Courier ... it took THREE days before the parcel was collected and there was no contact number available to speak about the problem. Courier sent me an email to track the parcel that hadnt been collected. So we werent best pleased with the service :-(

The company only interacts with Parcelforce via Emails. Therefore any issues you get via Parcelforce are dealt with in a very lack lustre way. For what its worth, its probably best paying Parcelforce the extra pennies so you can deal with the problems regarding your package directly.

Great service
25/06/19 by Customer
The delivery was collected on time and arrived at the destination early the next morning. Cannot fault the service.
25/06/19 by Customer
Collected when specified, parcel easily tracked, delivered on time and at about one third the cost of other couriers. Will definately use again
25/06/19 by Allan Swift
Faster delivered as I imagined and way cheaper. Excellent reliable service.

Parcelmonkey is the cheapest Postal service I have found. They are very reliable and had my parcel in Australia within a week. I wont use anyone else for the speed and price of shipping overseas.
25/06/19 by Paul Lawrence-Jennings
