Great experience and excellent service.
One small suggestion: It would be great if the driver collecting the parcel could give the customer a quick ring, early in the morning, and say the time approximately when the parcel would be collected.
It would save the customer sitting in the house all day

I was recommended to use Parcel Monkey as a secure quick and responsible company, yes the price was ok and yes they collected on time but unfortunately after waiting 3 weeks, I still have not received my parcels, have had no notification from them and worst us that the parcels contain personal belongings of my late brother who passed away only one month ago so I am very upset, and now have no clue as to where my parcel is.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! UNRELIABLE! I placed my order online for my parcel to be collected at my address and delivered to an address in the UK. The transaction was quick but no information regarding courier pickup times just that Courier will collect the next day (yesterday) between 0800-1800. I was unable to go to work due to the time slot. Not only did I lose a days pay but I wasted the WHOLE DAY waiting. MY PARCEL WAS NOT COLLECTED NOR DID I RECEIVE ANY UPDATE OR INFORMATION REGARDING THIS HUGE INCONVENIENCE. I contacted Customer service via live chat but again service was ABSOLUTELY USELESS. Staff have no idea nor do they have any interest/concern about the ridiculous service they provide. I DEMANDED A FULL REFUND BUT WHEN I MENTIONED LOSS OF EARNINGS MY MESSAGES WERE IGNORED AND NO RESOLUTION HAS BEEN OFFERED. NO COMPENSATION FOR LOSS OF EARNINGS. ALL THEY OFFER IS ANOTHER COLLECTION WHICH AGAIN IS NOT GUARANTEED AND MEANS I COULD LOSE ANOTHER DAYS PAY SITTING AROUND FROM 0800-1800 FOR ANOTHER NO SHOW.

Awful experience. Parcel Monkey take your money and dont provide the courier service you pay them for. No way to speak to anyone by telephone at parcel monkey (no customer service number). Never again!

Good service all went well

Nothing to say, except just the usual praise for the excellent Parcel Monkey service.
05/01/19 by Iain
Reasonably priced, easy to use service if you need a package picking up. It would be good to know pick-up time but if you can be in all day its a minor quibble.

Only one parcel of two arrived on time. The first parcel arrived from the UK to Thailand very quickly but the consignment ended up being split and caused great concern for the customer. Finally turned up after two weeks
04/01/19 by Leon
No problems’will definitely use them again.
04/01/19 by Chapman
Polite on time and reasonable price.

Been using now for over 2 years, 5 stars all the way.

They maybe just the agent, but they still take your money and you enter a contract with them, not the delivery company. However, they do not take responsibility when something goes wrong and are no help, their customer service is a laugh. The parcel I sent was was never delivered and Parcelmonkey did nothing apart from apologising. They did not even offer to fulfil their contract after I myself!!! found the parcel, which was missing. It took a whole month of my time and effort, not theirs. I had it delivered back to my address as the only option. I then had to send it to its destination using another courier, which was a success, though I paid twice for the parcel being delivered. I am still waiting for a refund from Parcel Monkey but judging on reviews, I am not hopeful. They have a customer service which is the worst, its non-existent, they are only good at writing apologetic emails and shifting blame, despite your contract being with them and them having happily taken your money. NEVER USE THEM, its fine if all goes well, but there is no help if it goes wrong. There is no phone number, only their message service and they only reply if you persistently write to them, however, never with constructive help. Totally unacceptable and useless. AVOID

As a business we use ParcelMonkey 2-3 times a year at the most as they have unbeatable prices especially with Parcelforce for bulky parcels abroad. We never encountered any problem until recently. One parcel was overcharged as apparently the length of our parcel was 10cm more than declared ! Now, we ship parcels everyday (with a different courier) so we know what we do and we do not have time for this sort of games. We contested, replicated the bulky parcel to prove the dimensions. We were told that unless we have pictures of the original parcel with the label attached, we cannot prove our case. So people, beware, make sure before you dispatch, you take pictures of your labelled parcel with a tape measure nearby, do the same with your scale. This is the only way apparently you can contest that either ParcelMonkey and/or their shipping partner, ie Parcelforce in this case, got it wrong. In the meantime, we sent them an official claim but we only get the same answer that we do not have the pictures of the original parcel so we referred this case to the Trading Standards as clearly it is a common practice if you google "ParcelMonkey overcharged", etc. Beware, be ready, until they get officially investigated.

04/01/19 by Vicky
parcel dropped at parcel force no problem
easy to pay for parcel

04/01/19 by MR MIKE HOWARD
Probably because Christmas and New Year got in the way, but the Parcel that should have taken 3-5 Working days eventually arrived at the destination 14 days after it was sent
04/01/19 by David
Great service

Fantastic as always!!! So reliable and affordable! Thank you!!

Easy to print the label. Parcel was picked up from Horwich and landed in the South of France in no time. £15 for 30 kilos - bargain.
04/01/19 by Damian Mellor
The search is efficient and it is easy to book. I really like that they highlight if you need a printer or not. Knowing that the parcel is going to be signed for is useful.
I had to chat with the CS to get the right tracking number but it was very quick.

My go to place for finding the appropriate courier services for my needs...
