Been using this company for a while now and so far its very good. Had to chase a few delayed shipments and they were good at contacting me and resolving any issues.

Parcel was not collected when it was stated and took 5 days for collection. This happened to us twice in the same week. Cheap but Rubbish !

Extortionate insurance prices - even charge to cover up to £50 with Parcelforce when it is free. Very poor at attempting to resolve issues if items are un insured. They dont even get a response from a driver at Myhermes when they say they have delivered something when the GPS clearly shows they were no where near the address. I have a failure rate of about 3% with them mostly through Myhermes.

Excellent service, could not be easier. Swift, efficient, no problems. Best way to send a parcel abroad.

Parcel Monkey UK now 5 months in - I have since been offered £100 for the damage to the bike, which was covered for £500 - the bike is damaged beyond repair and unsellable, although the aluminium experts at Parcel Monkey seem to think it is safe to ride, so it must be I guess! Parcel Monkey have well and truly blow the competition out of the water in the worst experience of a company I have ever had, category. Please do not use them to send anything of value - even spending the extra money to insure it to get peace of mind is a complete waste of time and just extra money in their pocket.

Documentation confusion which the courier failed to acknowledge was their issue - resulted in parcel being held at customs in Australia

Parcel never collected and no means of direct contact to ask them why. Paid nearly £80 for a and waited in all day for collection of parcel an no collection. Not acceptable. The courier company who was assigned my parcel collection says there is nothing in their system regarding my parcel. So therefore parcel monkeys truly are MONKEYS!!! In this business.

Brillo all round

Nightmare getting compensated for lost items. They also charge extra for items even when the items have been correctly weighed. They then blame it on the carrier & so you have no.leg to stand on because they want evidence that the item was the weight as you said. I use parcel monkey out of neccessity. There prices are generally lower & there really is not much alternative for international orders..

I sent a parcel to China in November 2018. It was never delivered. Practically every week since December 2018 I requested updates - all I got was robotic replies. Eventually they admit that it has been lost and email a claim form. However, I couldnt fill it in within their 7 day time scale because it took me a while to find the receipt. So now they are saying that the time for compensation has expired! I find this as totally dishonest because they took took my money but never delivered. Really this is criminal activity.

A parcel I dropped off at drop off point was sat there for nearly a week without being picked up. I collected it and was told it wouldnt scan. Ive sent it with another courier service. Im hoping to get my money back. Sue Robinson

Rub...bish Booked 24 hour delivery. Got call on day of pick up to check if package ready?? of course its ready how do you think we had weight and measurements !! Then told good we can collect tomorrow. So 24 hours gone to 48 hours and people both ends have been GREATLY inconvienienced. Messaged via twitter and ZERO response.

Seemed to go smoothly. Still waiting for the confirmation that the items were received but they have been signed for so assume all is well.
