Received tracking updates and proof of delivery. Excellent service and much cheaper and reliable than Royal Mail who failed to deliver to the address last year.

Two bad experiences with a competiter.
Ease of service.
Only comment was asking for my buyers mobile number and email address.
I contacted the buyer to say l gave my alternative email and mobile number and you sent me the pic and delivery.

Clear messaging and a straightforward means to compare prices and arrange the posting of a parcel.
Will use again particularly when sending a large package.

I eventually had my parcel to Portugal returned following a failure by UPS and a screw up with the customs. Parcel monkey not at fault for this.

My parcel hasn’t been received after nearly 2 weeks. There has been no update and I can’t speak to a human being about this. Worst service ever.
23/01/26 by Jordan Carr
First time using and found it very easy. Will definitely use it again.

Parcel Monkey’s customer service has been extremely disappointing. I have a parcel currently being held in Germany, and despite multiple attempts to get help via their live chat, I have received no response for over 8 hours. There has been no update, no explanation, and no guidance on what is required to release the parcel. For an international shipment, this level of silence is unacceptable and very frustrating. I would not recommend Parcel Monkey based on this experience unless their communication and support significantly improve.

I originally approached DHL directly who wanted £250 to send my parcel. I had a look on Parcel Monkey which is easy to use, especially for large bulky parcels and you can get the cheapest quote quickly. The initial price quoted was just over £100 with courier DX but was incorrect and it ended up being £30 cheaper at the checkout! Super competitive!

It seems this company is a scam . Im asking all people who have had their parcels lost or stolen to go direct to your bank or credit card company to get a chargeback i have had a very bad experience with this scam company and it also seems some of the reviews they have paid for ..so contact your bank or credit card suppliers and request a charge back ASAP They are scammers im having to do all this while grieving my mum who has just passed and no empathy from these scammers

All went well. Easy to do, and compare costs from various suppliers.

Dont ever use this service for the sake of your mental health. Its been 2 weeks since I shipped my package and I havent received it. I have sent multiple emails and nobody is replying. DO NOT USE PARCEL MONKEY. They dont have good customer service, I have been chasing and chasing at this point I would have to escalate

Professionalism, knowledgeable & kind MAUREEN

I always use PM for parcels as the set up to order and print a lable for within the UK and also abroad is very easy.
I had tried quite a few others for deliveries before PM and running my side line of supplying specialist vehicle parts when not touring with my non animal circus.
All different sizes and weights, collection or drop off, all sorts of providers and all at a brilliant price.
Over the years I have had to cancel a few lables and never had any problems.
Problems are answered/ resolved quickly and I recommend them, at least give them a try, its worth a punt as we say.
Dated 25/12/2025 as an Xmas present for PM.

Parcel monkey did well then parcel force decided to turn a 48 hr service into a 72 hour service so I didn’t get what I paid for
21/01/26 by Customer
My parcel was not picked up and I dont know how to either contact them or get my money back. Is this fraud?

Bought my PARCELFORCE 48 label from Parcelmonkey on the 30th December. Posted on the 30th December at my local post office. Tracking shows 3 weeks later the parcel has not been delivered. Fault is with Parcelforce . Its not with Parcel Monkey

Bought an item from Ebay and used Parcel Monkey to arrange the shipping. I paid for next day delivery, fully tracked and insured. It was supposed to be collected from the vendor today 20/01/26 and delivered to me tomorrow 21/01/26. It is now 8 pm on the 20/01/26 and my parcel still hasnt been collected. The vendor is going overseas tomorrow morning and I now have a problem. I cannot recommend Parcel Monkey. I made numerous attempts to contact them, all fell on deaf ears. I am only glad I paid on my credit card as I suspect getting a full refund will be like pulling teeth. I wish I could give them zero stars, because thats what they deserve. I will put my reference number down , but frankly I am not interested in their excuses or utterly dire customer service. The clue was in the name I guess......monkeys.
