DO NOT USE we paid for 24hr delivery courier for our sons xmas present to arrive on the Friday prior to Xmas day on Monday and they did not put it through as a 24 hr service with parcel force and as a result we were charged extra for a service which we have not yet received and will arrive 6 days later than it should and NO XMAS PRESENT FOR OUR SON. POOR SERVICE. Will never use again! Be warned! I have never left a bad review about any company before but in this instance I believe Parcel monkey actually is taking the monkey out of everyone else with their poor service I will be in contact with you and expect a full refund for your dire service and the fact that you just ruined Xmas for my son who will now not have his present on Xmas Day. Explain that to my 4 year old .......Your poor service has a knock on effect!

Using partners parcel force, the parcel was delivered to rural southern France in three days and perfectly intact.

First time using, found it an easy process ( the drop off shop kindly printed info to put on box for me) good service and much cheaper than royal mail. Thank you

The only thing that could be improved is the printing of the label on completing the booking.
I spent some time trying to locate the label print option as it didnt offer me that option on the completion of payment

The parcel collection went smooth and on time, same as the delivery. A few items were damaged, but it was partially my fault because those were on the prohibited list and I should have wrapped them better. Overall a quick, affordable and reliable service.

Brilliant service and hassle free

Parcel got picked up, but over 2 hours later than scheduled. No phone call or update to say this was the case though. I had to call up the company who were picking up package in order to find out what was going on. I should have been notified that pickup time was going to be delayed.
23/12/17 by Customer
Easy use of website. Good range of options. Carriers have always picked up and delivered on time.
23/12/17 by Customer

Parcel picked up monday delivered to my daughter in australia saturday morning excellent especially at this time of year

My step daughters xmas presents where collected Monday 18th December -as of today saturaday 23rd December they’ve still NOT been delivered to her. I’ve have been trying to chase up daily what’s going on and have had no communication from parcelmonkey. Their “instant chat” option is appalling. No one replies to you even though it says support is live. All I got was bog standard responses “we apologise for the delay we’ll look into it” yet no one did. I’ve received a messsge from the courier today saying “good news your package will be delivered Wednesday 27th December” how is that good news to the poor 7 year old girl who thinks her daddy forgot to send her presents?? And why did we pay for a next day delivery service that’s taken over a week to get there??? Royal Mail managed to get the Xmas parcel from her grandparents there in time so I can’t see why a professional courier company couldn’t. Will never use parcekmonkey again and would advise everyone else not to either.

By quite some distance the worst customer service I have encountered. Firstly DPD did not collect on the day. ParcelMonkey inform me that they cant fix it, It is best to cancel and re-book for the next day. DPD do arrive to collect this time. They then keep it for 5 days before deciding they arent going to deliver it after all. ParcelMonkey have no idea why and cannot/cannot be bothered to fix it. DPD return it to ParcelMonkey who refuse to answer simple question of when it will be returned to me so that I can arrange someone to be in. It is now 17 days since DPD were supposed to have collected from me originally. If only it had been a Christmas present for the brother I dont like. Will be going to the Post Office if they ever get it back to me.

My parcel got to Portugal within 4 working days just before Christmas! Decided to use the service after being repeatedly disapointed with royal mail. It took 2 to 3 weeks for my Christmas presents to arrive... Very happy with the service will defenatly use it again!
23/12/17 by Joana Marques
Excellent service, we took ours to the post office rather than waiting in. Competitively priced and trackable. Arrived on time even in Christmas week. Used to send parcel to Channel Islands too, equally great. Would certainly use again and recommend. Simple easy to use good valueservice.

My parcel has been misdirected and has still NOT been delivered,absolutely disgusting
22/12/17 by Mr & Mrs A Cheeseworth
Courier did not collect on specified date and no notification received to this effect from Parcel Monkey. Support Centre dim-witted and lack of telephone interaction dissapointing. Have used previously to transport goods from Canada to the UK far easier than I experienced transporting goods within two UK locations this time.
22/12/17 by Customer
It was a really pleasant experience - ParcelMonkey told me what I needed for my shipping from the very beginning (i.e. a printer to print the labels) and the shipping was quite fast considering the period (international shipping during Christmas time!).
I would use it again!
22/12/17 by Chiara
Would never use Parcel Monkey again. A portion of the postcode was missed off the address that was passed on to the courier so my parcel sat in a depot for several days and PM never got in touch with me. I had to do all the chasing myself, when I spoke to Parcelforce they told me they had contacted PM to obtain the rest of the address but PM never got in touch with me (or checked their own records) to follow this up. I send parcels to this address several times a year, always without problem in the past, until this time when I tried PArcelmonkey.

Great selection of carriers and competitive prices
22/12/17 by Alex
Brilliant - quick, efficient and much lower cost than anywhere else. I 100% will be using only Parcel Monkey for my parcel needs from now on.
