Sent parcel from UK to Thailand and was glad it arrived. Was a little worried though because the tracking only seemed to track from my house to the parcel monkey warehouse. I was unable to track my parcel after it left the UK making this service not good enough for me. If something did go wrong I couldnt track my parcel, luckily nothing went wrong and the parcel was delivered fine, fast and cheap.

Charges was really high and £6.29 charged extra
05/10/16 by Customer
Our Response: Dear Customer
We do not make additional charges these are made by the couriers and based on the dimensions provided being inaccurate at the time of booking. The courier will charge us and then we pass this on to the customer as it is there responsibility to declare fully accurate measurements at the time of booking. If you are unhappy with this please raise a support ticket and put FAO Manager and we can raise this with the carrier.
Kind regards

I had multiple parcels to ship back from my vacation in the UK. For almost the same amount that Royal Mail wanted to charge for one I was able to ship 3 through Parcel Monkey. They arrived ahead of schedule and in great shape. I highly recommend their service

Have to say what a fantastic service I have just had with my last parcel.sent with Parcel Monkey. Picked up in Devon UK on Monday and delivered to middle of France 13.00 hours Wednesday. Absolutely brilliant.

They follow through every step of The way

The pick up time was excellent, they gave one hour slot and they came within that hour. However, for the delivery they only said the day, which is really inconvenient. My box arrived in perfect condition.

Tricky situation - large parcel/box; fragile; urgent; from West Midlands to Scotland. Collected from our location, delivered to theirs the next day at a very reasonable price. Easy to sort out on-line. Good, clear comparisons and easy to navigate the choices (of which there were many). VG!

I booked DX to collect a business parcel. 1st collection attempt they didnt turn up, 2nd attempt they didnt turn up and yes you guess it 3rd attempt they didnt turn up!! I cancelled DX and booked with Parcel Force who I have to say were excellent. My parcel ended up being delivered over a week later than my first booking, very embarrassing for my business and I guess Parcel Monkey.
05/10/16 by Customer W&W
Our Response: Dear Customer
I am very sorry to hear about this issue with DX if they fail to collect please contact us on Live Chat and we will be happy to assist and get this booked in and raise the problem with the carrier directly.
Apologies for the inconvenience caused on this occasion
Kind regards

happy with service, parcel delivered on time
05/10/16 by Customer
Pleased with service although I beloved I choose next day but when money was taken from my card confirmation came as 48 hour service.
05/10/16 by Malcolm Jephcott
Booked in service for same day collection. 1 hour later they told me they had to cancel the order and rebook for tomorrow. I paid more for a collection as the parcel needed to leave that day. I would of dropped it off at the post office if it wasnt going to leave until the following day. Didnt give me the option of changing the service to drop parcel off an refund for the difference. Messages from company no sorry, and they had the cheek to say that I booked it in for collection the following day when I have the message where they say they cancelled and re-scheduled. Use to use them 2-3 times a week. Never again. A good company resolves a problem.

Absolutely fantastic service this is the third time we have used parcel monkey to deliver to austraila,& the package arrived in four days which is quicker than a letter,reliable & very good value for money

Having recently used My Hermes, I was adamant I would never use them again whenever sending out parcels. It was due to this, I searched the net for other courier companies and thankfully I came across Parcel Monkey. Their fantastic customer support throughout the booking process really put my mind at ease and the process seemed so much easier. Will definitely be using them again to send parcels. Thank you!
04/10/16 by Mirza
Fantastic service, no problems, no issues and no hidden fees or instructions. Very easy to use

Used parcelforce 24 and they collected on the correct day but the parcel was not delivered the next day. Recipients of parcel waited in all day and were very unhappy.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused by the carrier

Had no problems sending a parcel. The quotes were much cheaper than parcelforce. Saved me about £10 for euro shipping. Would use again!
04/10/16 by Calvin
Dont know why im even doing a review for a service i havent recieved. Parcel still isnt lifted. The collection date keeps get puttimg back without my request. Couldnt actually be a worse service as there is no service at all despite getting in contact and making their customer service aware of my issue. Would not use again not even if i was paid.
04/10/16 by Customer
Our Response: Dear Customer
Sorry to hear the item was not collected, we at Parcel Monkey do not make collections as this is handled by the couriers themselves, we offer a Live Chat service on our site so you can speak with our team for assistance. We have contacted DPD on this order and will provide all updates on your Parcel Monkey account.
Apologies for the inconvenience caused

Parcel was collected midday Wednesday (great that I did not have to wait in all day) and delivered in France two days later. 19kg, increased insurance level and all for £17.26p. Could not be more impressed and would definitely use this company again and recommend to others.

Excellent, from pickup to delivery.

A great service to use for sending presents etc back home to Uganda with the only problem encountered at Kampala where unscrupulous members of a company charged with delivering my parcels wanting bribes or unexpectedly add taxes to a particular delivery for no particular reason. Everything works out really smoothly in England but its just at the other end in Uganda problems are encountered!!
04/10/16 by Kate Rachel
The total weight was 42Kg, the price I paid was very cheap:less than 40 Pounds. Both boxes arrived safely in 4 working days. I definitely raccomend parcelmonkey for your international deliveries and I will certainly use parcelmonkey again.

04/10/16 by mark
There is friction at the post office , they cant issue me with a receipt as there is no barcode on printed off label. They suggested having item collected from home in future. This could be a problem if I am not at home.
04/10/16 by Tony hurst
Great comms. Excellent service, Used a pick up and delivery service arranged through Parcelforce 48 and all ran very smoothly including being able to track your parcel. First Class, on my contacts now and will certainly use again.
