Kept up to date with progress of parcel.

Used these a number of times.
99% of the time no issues. Really hard to get in touch with people if something out of the ordinary happens and the “computer says no”

Avoid. Parcel arrived damaged to end destination, we paid extra for the damage insurance which was also a waste of time. We were then refused any form of compensation. Very disappointed.

Collection by DPD was prompt. But despite paying for next day delivery parcels were delivered 3 days after promised day.

Terrible. Parcel was booked with Courier through parcel monkey. I receive a text from Courier of the morning of collection (Tuesday) with a 1 hour time slot. Once they were 2 hours late I messaged parcel monkey and they said leave it until 6pm in case they are just running late. I messaged parcel monkey just after 6pm as no collection. As they are open until 8pm I expected a response. Nothing. At 10pm I messaged them and said are they going to collect following day (Wednesday) and I received a response Wednesday morning saying it couldn’t be done that day and would have to be collected Thursday. (This would be 2 days after initial date agreed). I explained that was unacceptable and went through another source to ship my parcel that same day (Wednesday). After I had done all that, which took a while I received a text from Courier giving me a time slot for collection that same day (Wednesday). It seems to me that customer services at parcel monkey don’t communicate with courier companies and just make up their own replies. My assumption is that something went wrong Courier’s end on Tuesday and they decided to collect on Wednesday. They could have communicated with me a bit better but Parcel monkey should have contacted them to see what the problem was.

I sent three parcels with them. One was picked up, never tracked, and ended up completely lost. The second—an expensive guitar—arrived at French customs and then became impossible to track. It was probably stolen by customs or who knows who. Their customer service was useless: they didn’t investigate, didn’t track anything, and didn’t reimburse me. I strongly advise against using their shipping services. It’s better to pay a bit more and make sure your items actually arrive.

Used Parcel Monkey on Saturday 22nd November to organise a pick up on Monday 24th November. They dont provide a pick up window, only that pick up time is between 8am and 6pm, so ive sat in all day waiting for parcel force to come pick up my parcel. No one has arrived. I spoke to parcel monkey on the chat twice today (24th) and each time, cant provide a pick up window and would need to contact after 6pm if nothing happens. Logged on now at 6pm and the chat window is nowhere to be seen on either my desktop or mobile. Ill be immediately asking for a refund tomorrow. Would not recommend this company. Sitting in and waiting for something that never comes is just a waste of your life. I can only thank parcel monkey for wasting a day of mine.

My parcel was easy to send to the US when other methods I tried were made complicated.
Easy instructions to send.
Good value, cheaper than other methods.

A bit slow but got here in the end with no damage

Booked and paid for a parcel collection via DX. Waited in, and nobody turned up. No notifications via email, text, or call - just nothing. Asked for a refund, but have to wait until Monday to hear back. Potentially lost a sale. Wont be using again. Next time I will go directly to the parcel company, at least they might get in touch if theres a delay or a problem.
