Take your money but do not deliver service. DX Freight courier supposed to pick up between 8am and 6pm today. No pick up, no explanation. Total waste.

Damaged delivery, rude customer service and took longer than expected because I wasnt a "premium" service but no explanation of this on website.

Easy, straightforward transaction. DPD cheapest courier quoted for our parcel to Europe. Collected from our home address 12 noon Tuesday - arrived France 11am Thursday. Able to track parcel all the way.

Used Google to find a courier to offer same day collection of a parcel from Scotland to Lancashire to be collected on the 23rd August, all went well Parcel Monkey offered a Parcel Force 48 hour same day collection for £39.79, I arranged and paid only to receive a confirmation email stating my item would be collected on the 29th August some 7 days after the booking date I had selected and paid for. I contacted Parcel Monkey via their live chat function which is more like an email service as it takes about 10 minutes between messages to get any response, I finally got them to pick it up a day later than I had intended . it was delivered then within the 48 hours. the company who I purchased the item from contacted me today to say a courier had gone in yesterday the 29th August to collect the package, the company contacted me as they were worried I would be charged a second time for a courier

Honestly, dont use this company. Total shambles from beginning to end. The delivery was handled by 3 different companies; not sure what Parcel Monkey do at all, they havent even managed to update their "Tracking" info from day 1 (which was also wrong!) Online support was shocking, it was left to me to chase the other suppliers (who, to be fair were helpful). However, PM failed to update me at any time at all. Every question was met with pages cut and pasted from their "standard response"manual.... Waste of space. Save yourself the stress and use a reputable firm to start with.... In future I will be

I am truly so very disappointed and angry with parcel monkey Twice I have been given dates to another courier Twice no one has collected Now despite my constant emails I am told they "have to cancel the order as its past 5 working days" .... its only day 3 since the last dated given to me ...so not only are they incompetent but they cant even count I have paid in full for this service (one hundred and twenty five pounds)

I was moving and had some books that I wanted to take with me. I packed two boxes, weighed them and did a search on parcel monkey - simple. I picked a supplier and price that suited me. Paid by card, printed the labels and had the packages picked up the following day. One day later they arrived at destination. Great! Completely worth the £17.00 not to have to drag them through the city, onto trains, etc.

Very Easy to book a collection for when you live too far away to collect it yourself.
29/08/17 by Nigel
Worst company ever would not use them, stay well clear dont even bother covering your parcel as they wont pay out!!! Please put your money somewhere else as customer service shocking and dont care
29/08/17 by Lewis Edwards
As I booked Im made a mistake and put the wrong house number on the collection address. I emediatly went on to your chat line where the operator thankfully, or so ithought. ! amended the labels and sent a new labrl email to me with the corrected number on. Unfortunately same correction was not sent to update the currier!! And today tried to collect myparcel from number 22 not no 70. It was only buy chance the people at twenty two new my brother lived at 70 Thus the parcel was collected but only buy luck . Not an effective booking system. This could have been disastrous. And I am not happy. In the Knolage that If I was to use your service again. And there was a simular situation I would have no confidence that the problem would be resolved.!! Graham durrant.
