I booked this service after originally going with a competitor who were a lot cheaper but they messed up, so I turned to parcel monkey who saved the day it was easy to do, so many different choices available, you really do get what you pay for, I will definitely be using them again.

Organising the whole parcel pick-up was fine, but the time frame for that was a whole day, so it was impossible to go out in case I missed them! Plus, there was no text message prior to pick-up giving some time to make sure I could be in at the right time, unlike other delivery and pick-up services.

On the 2nd of February 2016 Ive tried to book a delivery, after filling all the on-line forms and paid ( £21.58) not a single email was sent to me as an invoice,parcel manifest, transfer number or labels for the Parcel. I tried endless times to get some information since it was my first and last time with these Parcel Monkeys. No phone numbers, the web page has a contact us now that doesnt work....the client log in is a complete joke because Id registered and tried to retrieve my password in order to check my parcel shipment...and *zero!! I will not recommend these company for multiple reasons,starting on their contact service/client service,waste of time and money. And 7 days later I got an email asking me...how did we do??? Cheeky Monkeys!!

Very poor tracking updates; this does not give very accurate information on where my parcel is.

Parcel monkey is great price wise, always deliver on time and give you emails letting you know where and when your parcel gets delivered.

I have been using Parcel Monkey for over 3 years now and I am really happy with them. This is why I book all my deliveries through them.

Booked, parcel collected by Parcelforce the same day, and delivered in 48 hours, at less than half the price. Great service.
11/02/16
Great efficient, hassle free and convenient service. Was able to choose service that suited me and drop my package to the post office with no problems at all. Will use again.

Pretty good service, a nearer collection point would be helpful

The service is really good. Cheap and really efficient. Parcel delivered in a few days from GB to Italy and in excellent conditions. Thank you!

Very good service, parcel not damaged, got to destination in 4 days.

Was given 3 to 5 days as projected delivery time to address in Philippines.It took 6 days to get to Philippines. So as of today, 7 days after collection, still not out for delivery or even at delivery depot. Am disappointed with service so far and hope my parcel can be delivered in next couple of days.

The wrong collection dates were given to me, then they were cancelled, then the driver arrived anyway, then another driver arrived a few days later for the same parcel which had already gone.... the customer service person had no idea what was going on, they were actually talking to me and booking a Monday collection when a ParcelForce driver arrived to collect the same parcel! What a mess.

The items were collected and delivered by DPD in no time at all.
11/02/16
Easy to use, fast, reliable service

I needed to urgently send a valued parcel to Germany. The service allowed me to get a quotation from different companies. I went for Parcel Force. I was able to insure my parcel and arrange for collection on this same day. Is it brilliant?! I was able to track parcel thought its journey.
Delivery time took 4 working days. I will definitely use that service again.
Thank you Parcel Monkey!!!
11/02/16
Would definitely recommend. Easy to use and you get to track your parcel down to the exact time it was delivered

If everything goes smoothly with this company then it is fine. If something goes wrong then the communication method - i.e. online chat is not adequate. I have had a couple of times when the person supposed to be chatting has just stopped communicating, usually because they appear poorly trained & dont know what to say so they just go away. Frustrating to say the least. A phone number please!!

Website very easy to use. Particularly cheap for international deliveries.
11/02/16
Service was great. Had a choice of carriers and was able to track shipment until it had been delivered.
11/02/16
Quick, simplistic, efficient, cost effective.

Ive sent three parcel in Italy with parcelmonkey.co.uk + parcelforce to the same destination address. One parcel is arrived without problem, the other two delivered in UK because of an address routing error (!?!?). - cheap: i had to pay twice to return the packages to the sender. - parcel: the two packages returned damaged and part of the content lost. - delivery: sure, one of three arrives! As a matter of fact these bunch of monkeys stole £80 to return my goods damaged. "Cheap parcel delivery", is it a joke?

Did their job as described at a great price.

I used Parcelmonjey to send a parcel to Australia, and it arrived on time with all formalities cleared. Great service!

Took my parcel to a DPD drop off point and found they had no tracker barcodes so couldnt take the package. Contacted Pacelmonkey and they had no way of solving it. Im still waiting to hear back despite getting fed up and taking it to another drop off point at my inconvenience (no car, unfortunately). Will use MyHermes whenever possible.

Fantastic service from start to finish ! Very easy to set up ... Collected my parcel the next day and delivered it to me the next day .... Fab service and would definitely use again.

The driver came at 9am and I had the parcel collected from work. I asked the driver to wait 5 mins so I can wrap it up as I hadnt had chance the night before. He said no he didnt have time and would come the next day and he never showed. Very unhappy with the so called service. Waste of money had to call another courier

Prompt response to customer queries and excellent overall service.
10/02/16
Found the search page slightly irritating in as much as 23 choices available, but only four were shown, the one that I provisionally chose, wasnt even shown on the day I needed it! However a more expensive option performed like clockwork, certainly beats struggling with bulky parcels. Will use again.
10/02/16
Parcel was delivered 9 working days late which evidently is perfectly acceptable in their terms and conditions and therefore no refund of costs. Do not use - use Collectplus instead - on time and better value for money.
10/02/16
I didnt receive the parcel yet because they believe that there is important stuff inside and is still undergoing checks..in the meantime I get all kind of calls asking me whats inside, and after telling them is still not clear if I will get my parcel
10/02/16
This is an excellent finder and easy to book carrier service, much cheaper than going direct. It works well but you must go to them for tracking and delays. They do help quickly with problems, but the carriers take their time.
10/02/16
Did not hear whats going on with the parcel even after 2 weeks from collection! No tracking information! nothing!!!!!!!!
