Paid for 2-3 day service to Germany. 5 days and I still have the parcel sitting with me. Parcel monkey gave the wrong address to The courier and so my 2-3 day service has turned into an 8 day service. Never again will I use this bunch of clowns. No apologies, nothing.

The issue that I have experienced was: Hello We purchased at 08:38 a same day collection (as advised by Parcel Monkeys website we had 76 minutes to do so in order for it to happen), and paid the additional cost of doing so. Waited in all day for DPD to not bother to show up nor even phone to say they werent bothering to collect. Then at 22:44 we receive an email saying that we the customer had changed the collection date. We certainly did not and are unimpressed that DPD have put the onus on us. Why did we pay for a service that neither company had any intention on honouring? Just shows that we made a grave mistake in using DPD over Parcelforce. DPD are ignoring us as are Parcel Monkey who are refusing to refund for a parcel that never made it to the birthday recipient. Shambolic way of running a business. Regards

Excellent service again. Kept informed all the way delivery 2 days earlier than estimated date.

Efficient service. Quick to book, precise in the delivery and collections. Honest prices, and cheaper compared to competitors.
02/08/17 by Customer
Very good experience. Could only be improved by giving a timeframe in which the parcel pick up would take place

Easy and quick service. My parcel was uplifted and delivered when they said it would be with updates available online.
Highly recommended.

I wish customer service/live chat could be better

I paid for 24 hour service and collection was not made. No tracking was available. Customer service were difficult to contact and were then unhelpful and did not answer my questions.

parcel sent to Singapore on 20th. So far not delivered. no proper response from customer service bots ( or humanoids). P.Monkey knows nothing about the statusquo of the parcel. Nor do they know the contact details of the courier (DPD) to do follow up. Worst experiece ever in international mails.Royal mail would have delivered ordinary post by now (charging £3).
01/08/17 by Chandra
Terrible..no tracking available .supposed yupctake 3 days still hasnt arrived after a week
01/08/17 by Customer
A good way to send parcels overseas at a fair price. The only issue is smaller sizes under 1kg. They are charged at 1kg minimum so you could save money using Royal Mail small parcel rates which can be in grams !

As always fast and excellent thank you very much

We sent about 10 parcels a week via Parcelmonkey. Spent all day on Sunday Making a product for a last minute marketing job, as usual Parcelforce driver still has not shown by Tuesday. Easier in my experience to just waste a further 5 mins re-booking the parcel and biting the bullet than waiting on hold or in a queue to Parcelmonkey customer support several times to get this resolved. As usual disappointed by the Parcelmonkey system more than anything else. Think we are switching to another courier. While they are almost as useless on the customer support front they have tools to re-book failed collections yourself, meaning you need to talk to them less frequently. I cannot even put into words how frustrating it is to deal with the Parcelmonkey support teams, if i had to I would say about a 50/50 mix of not being listened to and not being at all understood.

Yet again they delivered to RURAL France in 48 hours. No damage to the parcel and communications on each side of the English Channel were excellent and timely.

never used before. Whole process was simple and costs using parcel force were 60% lower than going direct to parcel force. Goods shipped from Uk to The netherlands- arrived exactly as specified

I sent a parcel to Saudi Arabia and it has been three weeks and it still hasnt been sent. In the tracking information since 23rd of July, it says waiting in the depot. There has been no call or note to either recipient or sender. DPD is the courier company who I contacted and they said to contact Parcel Monkey. Parcel Monkey said they will contact courier and apparently its been waiting for collection. NO ONE KNOWS WHATS HAPPENED WITH IT BASICALLY. Parcel Monkey does not have a phone number and does an online chat where they do not "close" down issues until the end and relies on the customers frustration to keep following it up. I wouldnt recommend them to anyone.
