Used parcel monkey twice now and everything went smoothly both times. Clear instructions on what to do and delivered within the timeframe advertised once the package had been dropped off. Really great service for international mail services. Im a Brit living in the States, grateful to finally find a solid international postal service.

Sent a parcel to Thailand through ParcelMonkey using Royal Mail ( in UK ) & EMS ( in Thailand ) . Royal Mail was quick and reliable as normal .... but EMS in Thailand was a nightmare , took ages and then dropped the parcel off in a courier agents office in a different town ( although they had an office in the delivery town ) , then made my girlfriend find someone with a car to drive her the 30 miles to pick it up - with the threat off , if not collected within 5 days , would be sent back to the UK .

AVOID, hopeless, you only save a couple of quid, they were late, cant contact to change address as we wont be still on holiday by the time it arrives a week late, the Expert Customer Call Center are useless, you wont get a number or any useful help.

I asked Parcel Monkey to collect two parcels and deliver them to my home address. The order was placed with Parcel Force at a very reasonable rate, the parcels were delivered as promised.
Im very happy with the service and I would use Parcel Monkey again.

Reliable to date. I use parcel monkey regularly and my costs are very reasonable. I recommend this service.

Parcel Monkey is so easy to use and have a parcel collected. I would have given 5 stars, but UPS wanted fees and taxes paying, and said they did not receive payment, but I only found out the payment was needed when I tracked the package. Why did they not notify me as they had my contact details.

It’s been almost a full month and they still haven’t delivered my package. Choosing to work with the company was clearly a huge mistake. First, they told me the package was damaged. Then they said it actually wasn’t, and that it would be delivered. Multiple times, they told me—after countless messages and calls—that the package would be delivered to a specific location on a specific date. Every single time, that turned out to be a LIE. NOTHING was ever delivered. I WASTED my time and energy going back and forth for absolutely nothing. Then, unbelievably, they told me the package was “LOST.” they told me to follow up again, which I did—and for the past two weeks, I’ve heard nothing but the same empty excuse: that the package is still MISSING. To this day, nobody can even tell me where it is. How can a logistics company just lose a package and have NO CLUE where it is? It’s outrageous. And then they have the audacity to tell me they “contacted the carrier but received NO update”? If they cant even get information from their own carrier, maybe they shouldn’t be in this business at all. Stop wasting people’s time and stop causing this kind of stress and damage.

Had an emergency in Norway (I live in UK) and had to have an insulin pen sent from my home address to the address which I am staying at in Norway. On Monday, I needed this pen by Friday as my insulin pump was due to expire and I had no others to wear - hence why I needed the pen as I had insulin here in Norway. I had doubts I could get a parcel here before that time, but I was shocked to see Parcel Monkey state they could get it from UK to Norway in 3 days. I paid for the UPS Express Delivery through Parcel Monkey for £21. After it had been collected from the UK address, I could then track my parcel online, which was reassuring as it said it would be delivered at some point on Wednesday 30th. However later that evening I tracked it again and it said it would be delivered by May 6th. Not to sound too dramatic, but I wouldnt be alive if I had to wait that long. I contacted UPS and gave them my tracking reference given to me by Parcel Monkey and they got back to me saying that number isnt a tracking number. Now, when I try to log in to Parcel Monkey to track again, it doesnt recognise my account anymore. I havent got the log in credentials wrong as I have it saved on Google Passwords from the moment I created the account. I then select that Ive "Forgotten my Password", enter my email to receive the reset link and... nothing. Fortunately I was able to purchase a new pen from a pharmacy, which costs me £40 plus a train fair through Norway. I still have no idea where my parcel is

Fantastic quick and easy service

It would seem that the information given is totally incorrect in that your detail does not correspond with the delivery address therefore ebay state they need the correct information to be given to them to close the account detail before releasing payment. please get a representative to ring me on 07770870988 to resolve the matter. Regards Stewart Shonk.

Cheaper than Royal Mail and works

I had left them a glowing review even though I was suspicious of the other positive reviews (I wish more was being done about fake reviews as rogue companies instead of improving focus efforts on more bad conduct instead!) Those commenting on a smooth process etc (like I had!) clearly haven’t had anything go wrong.. I am sure their reviews would also turn into one like this. So things have gone wrong with latest shipment which is entirely out of my control and the UK courier used is refusing to help or do anything about it. Not only is PM not helping either but they seem well rehearsed in showing a complete lack of empathy or interest in helping also. They can’t be bothered to read the details provided so you have to keep repeating the same information and still don’t get anywhere. There is no complaints or claims process and that to me says EVERYTHING about a business - they couldn’t give a hoot about their customer, their goods, doing the right thing or even abiding by the law. They are only interested in your money. I will be researching a shipping agent (or going direct with a courier) that at least has a complaints/claims process to use in future. Will not be returning to PM!

From start to finish..... amazing

I searched for a company who could deliver a small package to Malta. Parcel Monkey gave me a quote and confirmed UPS could do this. I completed all the necessary documents and paid the fee. Less than 4 minutes later my order was cancelled. The reason: we cant deliver to this destination. So far I have received no reason for this cancellation, I am still waiting for the refund.

Extremely easy to use and allowed me to get a very competitive shipping price sending a bulky item to the USA which I was unable to get elsewhere.
The customs form was automatically generated and clear instructions were provided on how to display them on the parcel.
Would definitely use again!

The service was excellent from the time of collection to the recipient receiving the parcel. I would definitely use the service again and recommend to family and friends.

Everything went really smoothly. The booking process is easy to navigate. I needed a next day delivery for an event and everything arrived on time and was easy to arrange for collection and next day delivery back after the event. Highly recommend and fantastic price too.

Charge me twice for the same delivery. Currently going through PayPal to get the money back….

Wheres the no stars button? Ive waited in two whole days so far for a collection. I paid £57 for a 24hr express delivery. Today is day three. No explanation, no compensation. Last week I cancelled a collection and the driver actually turned up ... Never again ... AVOID
