Having been recommended to Parcel Monkey by the Jacobs Well Appeal to whom I was donating a consignment, I was very satisfied with the service provided and competitive pricing compared to other carriers. In particular I like the arrangement to be able to take the consignment to a designated collection point, which overcomes the problem of having to wait at home for collection. Would recommend.

Pick up time was very precise, service excellent, easy to follow instructions, labelling. Arrived in the period stated 3_4 days. Would definitely. Use the service again.

Parcel Monkey have no direct contact number, and with the mistakes they have made this ends up being very frustrating and almost nothing is done. They recently lost a parcel going to Dubai (one of many) and we still await any sort of compensation, when you try to email they are extremely unresponsive and give nothing at all back. I do believe they try and prolong the problem in the event that after a certain amount of time they say there is nothing that can be done. Overall there has been far far more bad experiences, i am currently still waiting for anyone to get back to me once again.

It was the first time Ive used Parcel Monkey and found the whole process quick and simple. It was also good value. Would definitely use again.

I used the drop off service as it was more convenient for me to drop my parcel off at a time suitable for me, rather than me to wait for someone to pick it up. My parcel arrived the next day!! Highly recommend this service plus it was cheaper than Royal Mail

Parcel Monkey made sending my parcel a complete doddle. It worked perfectly. Many thanks.

Great Service, found the tracking facility useful due to the urgency of the job.

I used the service to send to France. Everything went fine, although I did have a panic when I got an automated email to say that my parcel was enroute, when it still had to be collected from me

Chose this service as no printer was needed and I was arranging a collection for something purchased from eBay so needed to keep things simple. Cheaper than the same service direct from the post office, dont know how they do that! Had some reservations due to cheaper price but they were unwarranted. Everything went smoothly. Only thing I would change would have been to receive a text message on collection day with a time window.

very good services i recommend to anyone.

I sent a document to the Philippines with Parcel Force Global Priority. The tracking says "delivery attempted" but the receiver has not received a card with instructions as Parcel Force claimed to. When I called them they told me to call a number in the Philippines which costs a fortune and the staff on the other end dont seem to speak English very well. Still trying to resolve this.

Everything went extremely well. From organising the collection to delivery....first class and for a very reasonable price. Will definitely use again.

I used Parcelforce 24 hour service. The parcel arrived in the time allocated, but to the wrong address. The recipient managed to track it down to a neighbouring business unit, so no harm done, but she was annoyed when she thought the delivery was taking more than 24 hours and didnt actually receive it until the following day.

I needed to send a parcel from UK to Bahrain and using parcel monkey made it so straight forward and easy. When I had queries the customer service was very quick and efficient, will be using again soon

I have been using parcel monkey for over 3 years now. And their service is utterly TERRIBLE. I have had parcels lost, damaged, mis-delivered and returned for no reason. This time was no different. My item was to be sent to Sweden. I opted for the fastest (most expensive) service, but a week later, my parcel hadnt arrived to my cousin. Parcel monkey didnt know where it was, their local Swedish contracted courier didnt know where it was either. I know it seems absurd, but I only stay using parcelmonkey because they are the cheapest way to send goods. I know theyre the cheapest, and they know it too (which is why they are ok to privde such a diabolical service). They know bargain hunters will keep coming to them).

Used these a few times, my normal delivery method was/is collect plus, so far I have had parcels arrive late or not collected on the day of drop off and one parcel being a £300 PC was damaged, but because parcel monkey only cover me for loss there is nothing i can do, So considering I have had zero damages with collect plus and they insure for loss and damage, then I will be sending with collect plus from now on, not only that with collect plus they seem to treat customers items with a little more respect, rather than just throwing them about. Wont be using parcel monkey again for my expensive items, not worth the hassle, also always paid to ship with dpd via parcel monkey, so I guess dpd are not any better considering they were the ones who damaged my customers computer.

Im maybe being unfair rating you as a 1* but my parcel has not been delivered yet. This is not giving me faith or hope in your system. Either its been delivered and youve not updated the system or its not delivered and you dont know.

Excellent service, easy to use, best price & delivered on time.

Posted a guitar half way across the country for £13, the parcelforce courier arrived for collection bang on time, and within 24 hours it was delivered to one happy customer. Excellent service
13/09/15
Didnt turn up to collect. Re-booked for the following day. Message mid-day to say cancelled, can not collect until after the weekend. Unacceptable!

The price we paid and the efficiency of the pick up were superb. I wish other products were so simple and straightforward.
13/09/15
