Damage to two parcels, one compensated for but not the other despite paying for insurance. Failed to collect on one occasion, informed that collection was rebooked for 2 days time and was actually collected on day in between

Package delivered in tact, on time.......great
but, I received 2 emails
one, before the package had been picked up from my home saying it was on its way.
and
two (after the driver had picked it up) stating the driver had tried to pick it up from my home but that I was out.
Confusing at the time

Parcel monkey was far cheaper than going direct to Parcelforce for a recent shipment to Europe. I have used Parcelmonkey in the past and so far no real problems. It can be difficult to contact them if you have an issue, but so far they have always responded, even if this has taken a day or so.

It was a pity it was a holiday weekend better next time.

Parcel arrived 24 hours late and damaged. No contact details for Parcelmonkey. Easier to deal with the delivery companies direct.

The consignment was easy to book, the price was good and the service reliable. Cant ask for anything more.

Booked and paid for on Thursday last week fro collection on Friday. Now it is the following Thursday and Im still awaiting a pick up.

Delivery was completely fouled up by DX resulting in us paying for the service but having to pay again for an alternative courier. No point of contact with Parcelmonkey apart from an email address leaves us high and dry.

If you are reading this review please do not use parcelmonkey, or for that matter any couriers, they are awful & constantly offer nothing but bad service. Ups, parcel force & Myhermes are the main culprits, constantly delivering broken items or simply reading the contents and keeping them for themselves, after stating the parcel has "gone missing"! I have online shops and am unfortunately forced to use them. This week, 5/5/2015, I have sent two large items. They have both been smashed to pieces in transit. They were wrapped to withstand couriers abuse but obviously the drivers/depot workers have no regard what-so-ever for customers parcels and these parcels have been thrown around! Awful service & what customers are not told is that if you receive compensation you will not get back any PayPal (or other) fees. If you really have to use a courier please over insure everything, at least try to make a profit from the couriers, it will teach them a lesson in the long run!

When it works Parcel Monkey is great but the test of a good company is how things work when the unexpected happens and how they treat customers. Parcel Monkey is reliant on their couriers and I would like to see them being more pro-active much faster when things arent happening as they should. With timed collections and deliveries theres no point attending to a complaint or inquiry the following day.

I had issues with their website not displaying the country that the parcel was going to on the page asking me to confirm that everything was correct. When I used the chat software to ask them what was going on the first person didnt really understand and then signed off. I then re-connected and chatted with someone else who was a little more helpful. In the end if I had clicked "proceed" on the confirm screen then I would have seen that the country was correctly displayed on the next screen. However I didnt want to confirm an incomplete address. Especially when they say that if there are any errors then youd need to cancel and re-book, with additional charges. With all the uncertainty about what the website was saying and the online chat, it took me nearly 2 hours to arrange delivery of the package, which is obviously way too long. I feel that they just need to look more closely at the customer experience using the website. The package arrived fine using DPD.

Parcel monkey excellent site, easy to use and quick results. Unfortunately I choose parcel force who although gave a date to uplift .. No time. So it meant hanging about all day. Uplifted at 14.50 on Thursday for next day delivery . One box arrived all in order but the other box did not arrive until today (Wednesday ) and was completely damaged. Still waiting on update from buyer as to the condition of goods .

I have always gone to the post office to post my parcels, which was proving very expensive. This service is so easy and more than less than half the price. I will and I have recommended to my friends And family.
