No real feedback from a shipment to Nigeria. Not the first time I have had to cause them and it’s always someone elses fault…….

I’d not heard of Parcel Monkey before, but so glad I found it! I was returning an order to China.
The cost was going to be more than £70 at the Post Office. Luckily the member of staff recommended Parcel Monkey - so glad she did, as it saved me more than 50% compared to using EXACTLY THE SAME service at the Post Office.
I’ll definitely use the service again - thank you!

Shocking parcelforce have made a complete mess of our delivery and your doing nothing about it and expecting us to pay more money to have our own property returned, to be honest what is the point of a service that does pretty much nothing for you, happy to take your money, but not to sort out issues.

Worked well and I’m pretty sure I saved money.

You responded to my poor review of your service in a typically unprofessional and inaccurate way. My complaint has not been dealt with and you have not furnished me with the telephone number or the call back I requested; not even with the complaints address I asked for. What the contact log does show is the numerous errors and pathetic excuses you came up with. The parcel has been cut open and things have been stolen from it. The driver tried to hide the cuts and explained it as being down to the fact that I packed it badly. You have since told me theres no insurance on it and the loss is all mine. The support tool of parcelmonkey is not helpful either in that you cant upload evidence pictures as the file limit is too small. Lastly, what gives you the right to assume you can call me by my first name and then sign your response "the team"? We will settle this in the small claims court and I promise you, the entire progress will be posted on here (and other social media sites) for all to see. All service companies are defined by the level of service when something goes wrong! You have been defined by your appalling customer service! OH, AND YOU ARE STILL DISPLAYING THE INCORRECT POD DESPITE BEING TOLD BY ME AND Courier.

Sending from UK to NZ 2 parcels and these were the most cost effective company. Quick pick up of parcels, really nice pick up driver. Items made it there in a week, one item delivered first and the second a few days later but all in good condition. Will use again!

Absolutely excellent service from booking, collection to delivery and quick response from customer services. I sent a box over to New Zealand which arrived in 8 days, quicker than the Royal Mail. Would highly recommend as I had such a great experience.

I needed to return a base unit and hadnt used a courier in a while so did a quick comparison online and Parcel Monkey were the cheapest out of the few I checked. No issues with placing the order and collection. Thank you.

Always the most affordable quote, used twice now and both items have arrived safely and on time during lockdowns.

I would give fewer stars if I could. I started using parcel monkey a lot recently for my work. Ive had 2 (one very expensive) parcels lost in the past 3 weeks. 1 has been lost for nearly a month and the other lost for almost 2 weeks. I made Parcel Monkey aware of this, and they insisted they could not call the courier and was waiting for a response to their email. Parcel monkey is supposed to be the liaison between you and the parcel company but seeing as they refuse to speak on the phone to the couriers or me, I proactively made calls to both couriers to get a search for the parcels moving. It took a further 2 weeks of me consistently calling the couriers to get the issue resolved, and all the while, Parcel Monkey did nothing. Once I had confirmation the expensive parcel was lost from the courier, I had to go back to Parcel Monkey, who wanted proof of purchase of the item inside and a note from an already annoyed customer confirming that he had not received the parcel. Since this, I have been told it will take an additional 7 days to be reviewed. Regarding the other lost parcel? Nothing, and now my emails are being ignored. Use Parcel Force or royal mail directly - a bit more expensive but worth it to avoid this.

Collected on the 7th delivered on the 10th. 2.2 metre parcel. Arrived intact and efficiently. Will use again.

easy to schedule at a very reasonable cost. Parcel Monkey is a more than excellent company. The Website works well including the bit where you have to create a proforma invoice. The whole customs declaration is a very easy process which is important since the UK decided that alone you stand strong.
For the rest you are dependent on the selected transporter.

Very bad service without any responsibility. I have send an international parcel worth 700 pounds on 16th of May.Till now that hasnt been delivered. They dont have any idea where is it and where has it gone.No updates at all.Eventhough its not a commercial parcel asking for bank statement.They said its been handed over to Courier and gave me a contact number which is not answering at all.When i contacted them from the number which is in Google, they are telling the from adress is not mine for the waybill number they have provided. Very disgusting and i am totally disappointed.

Dont use them. I went on their wecbsite to book a collection and the item weight is 11kg but I couldnt shrink wrap it back into the box. The supplier agreed that I can tape the bag and return it to them. K then contacted Parcel monkey to say that the weight of my parcel is the same but the dimension is different - should I cancel my collection and rebooking? They said the courier will tell me the price different when collecting the item. The courier arrived and just picked it up. I showed him the box that it couldnt fit in with weight and dimension and he just said its fine! A week later, Parcel Monkey wrote to tell me they charged me extra £53 because the new dimension means that the weight is 25kg. I forwarded them the email from the supplier confir ing the weight of 11kg and they still insisted nothing can be done!

Provided a number of options for parcel delivery which met our needs. Drop off on a Sunday and delivery by Tuesday. Great service thank you.

Really impressed with the efficiency of the service. Had to send equestrian products to a friend in SA and it got there relatively quickly despite custom issues. We were kept in the loop and highly recommend this company.
