Excellent chose parcelforce and collection and delivery were seamless

Parcel Monkey is the best as long as you dont face difficulties with the shipment; our experience shows that when you face an issue they will shift you to the third party (operating/forwarding company) which is nowadays a custom to western companies!? rather than that they are very good and recently better

My order was made at 12:35pm. I was told the parcel would be collected before 3pm that day and I paid for same day delivery. The parcel had still not been collected by 5pm meaning the delivery location would have been closed by the time the parcel was collected or delivered. When I told Customer Services the situation they ignored this fact and kept telling me "It will be collected soon". Due to the fact that the collection was over 2 hours later than I had been told at the time of making the order, I was forced to cancel and make the delivery myself taking time out of work in order to do so. The Customer Services department then proceeded to charge me a cancellation fee. I had to deliver the parcel myself and paid upwards of £40 for a service that wasnt provided and that the company should have known was incapable of being provided. Frankly, appauling.

I booked a collection which when delivered was badly damaged. I opened a claim and more than 2 months later it is unresolved. I get fobbed off with "its been forwarded to our department" etc etc. I went to the courier direct and they say no claim was opened and the time has passed for it to happen! They suggested taking legal advise against ParcelMonkey. Likely will end up in court now. Stay clear of this, deal direct with the couriers, its not worth the 1 or 2% saving not too. Lesson learnt.

The parcel was collected on time (I got notification of when to expect the driver) and it arrived safely at its destination (again, I got notification of when it was going to arrive).

Parcel Monkey is now my "go to" company for parcel delivery.
Ive tried and used several other companies over the years and Parcel Monkey have proven to be competitive and reliable.

I got an email from Parcel Monkey on 13th November stating that Parcelforce had been in contact with them saying that I hadnt weighed my package properly, that it didnt weigh 3kg as I had put on the order, but 11.5kg, and asking for an additional £9.77 charge to be taken to the credit card Id used, at first I thought it was an email scam posing as Parcel Monkey. As an eBay seller who has used companies such as Parcel-2-Go to arrange cheaper deliveries, Im used to double-checking parcel weight before shipping, ordering shipping for a higher weight than the package itself just in case, so I was very displeased to hear this. Currently waiting for them to take the payment, whilst Im over having to pay this, I should warn anyone to throughly weigh their package with digital scales or visit their local post office and ask for an accurate weighing, then write the weight on the package.

Tracking information is so out of date, you dont know where you are with your collections/deliveries. You lost my first parcel and seriously delayed my second and I have only used your service twice.

Excellent service

Compensation/insurance cover is unclear on what category of computer systems are fully covered. It would be useful to be able to specify when collection should occur e.g. I had to delay collection by 24 hours because I knew I would be out for the morning. In the event the parcel was only picked up at 4pm on the booked day. I thus wasted 24 hours

Great service,I would recommend this service to anyone.
