Took to Post office as arranged,the parcel didnt get collected until late PM the next day.The total length of time was from Thursday until delivery on Tuesday morning. Not sure where the advertised next day delivery comes into this. Be careful if choosing this company.

Absolute thieves! Purchased a courier service from Scotland to England for an item that somebody has bought from me for a few hundred Pounds. Obviously the buyer is taking a chance paying me for such a distant purchase. This lot have not even bothered to turn up from DX Freight despite the contract being for collection today. Constant phoning and chasing from my side when I shouldnt have to! Furthermore, no apology, just nothing. DO NOT TOUCH THEM WITH A BARGE POLE BECAUSE THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE AND DO NOT EVEN HAVE A PHONE NUMBER TO GET THEM ON. Stay well clear.

I was sending back a mobile phone. I clearly stated this at the time of making the Order. some days letter I was told that they could not deliver the mobile phone and then charge me to have it return !!!!!!!!!!!!. I contacted them and they said that I should have read the terms . I clearly stated that it was a mobile phone which making the Order, they should have declined it. Never use this service.

Best parcel delivery

Parcel was delayed on Greek side of the equation. Parcel Monkey found out who the delivery agent was in Kefalonia and advised me promptly allowing me to find and retrieve my parcel. Good job!

The parcel arrived even before expected and everything inside was in perfect conditions

Used PM to deliver via Parcelforce, item tracked to Sweden ok, then it disappeared RoyalmailbResolutions did what they could so did parcelforce, but as I used PM my claim had to be via them, no information on PM web site. Submitted claim with what information available why no phone number or proper form don’t think I’m going to see my £115 back but will wait and see will go direct in future.

Excellent service! Collected from my door and reached its Australian destination in less than a week! Cannot fault them

According to the information given on Parcel Monkeys web page, the courier would deliver in 3 days. Parcel was picked up a week ago and is currently still at the delivery depot, not even out for delivery. Any company is only ever as good as the partners they chose to work with. Rating was given based on this and the misleading information we received.

Absolutely shocking customer service. Our business will never use Parcel Monkey again. Paid for next day delivery, arrived with our customer 4 days later. Completely ripped off! False advertising by Parcel Monkey!

Parcelforce made a mess of delivery. The report a problem does not provide a send button.. online chat does not work

Im still flashed about the very quick (2 days), frictionless (from ordering until delivery no brake, delay, request or similar) of my delivery of 4 boxes ! And this with a very affordable Price. Thanks a lot to the team.
29/05/19 by Mark
Already recommended the service to friends.
Very transparent process. Felt like my boxes were safe at all times.
29/05/19 by Customer
Brilliant. Lots of choices for whatever service suits you and very easy to use. Love that i can keep tracking parcel at every step of journey and great customer service if you have a question/issue too.
Highly recommend them

Super service
29/05/19 by Kevin Fowler
The first and only time I have used Parcel Monkey will certainly be the last. I booked a collection and consequential delivery through them. The courier did not arrive, despite confirmation emails, print outs and tracking numbers assigned. I contacted Parcel Monkey who offered to rearrange the collection/delivery. The courier did not come for a second time (the courier company knew nothing of the booking). I contacted PM for a third time who offered a refund or a third collection. Naturally, I chose the refund. There was no explanation. No compensation for the bad service. AVOID this middle-man company.

Service was quick, place my order and my items was collected the next day mid morning. Was given a receipt with my tracking number. Was given updated via email when my parcel reached it destination.

I am very disappointed by the service I received. I sent a parcel via DPD express which got lost. I contacted them many times and have yet to receive a refund for the loss. I will never use them again, and neither DPD I must say!

Very easy to use and print off label. My only niggle, the price increased a little from what was initially quoted. But I’m sure that was the company. Luckily I didn’t loose money.

They tried to collect parcel but I didn’t hear them, they didn’t leave a card so I waited in all day not knowing they had been.
