A little delayed at Romania end, sadly recipient had to pay significant VAT on it, despite being a gift. Good tracking with DPD

Used Parcel Monkey for a few years now and arranging collection and delivery is so easy. Couriers Used UPS and DPD have never let me down, very reliable. Excellent service and stress free.

I had a box of glass plates my Nan gave me before she died and had them shipped over with parcel monkey. I put the whole box in fragile tape and put a hell lot of bubble wrap in the box. The box was late and when getting the box it was ripped, wet and soggy. I reported it and they don’t want to pay any damages at all. No number and really bad service. I wouldn’t use them at all. Even Courier said they are not a great customer service. Broken trust and a broken heart due to the plates.

Booking on a mobile was a bit of a faff but all in all service was good. Was able to track parcel via a link. Dropped off parcel smoothly. Great.

Excellent price and service. Quick parcel delivery to Germany despite postal strikes in the UK.

Package was collected when prearranged and was delivered to final destination within the timescale quoted. I was notified by email with picture attached of delivery drop off. Having seen negative reports about Evri (Ex Hermes) I was rather concerned but would totally use and recommend Parcel Monkey for the options made available and would certainly use and recommend Evri due to the positive experience.

Booked 5 day courier service for 8 customers a week before Christmas. No delay shown at booking. Tracking showed delivery after Christmas so sent duplicate item via another courier and advised Parcel Monkey in order that a refund could be arranged. Advised to wait for delivery for a refund to be arranged. Both courier services arrived the same day. No refund. Out of pocket and depleted stock.

Happy with service and delivery.

Absolutely appalling customer service, parcel sent using Parcel Monkey website so I paid Parcel Monkey for a 48hr Express tracked service via Parcelforce. Sent on the 9th December finally arrived on the 21st December!!! Customer service shrugged off my complaints blaming it on the post office and who ever they decided would deliver my parcel!!! I would never use Parcel Monkey again and advise anyone thinking of using them don’t, read the reviews first if they publish this!!!

Put my parcel into a drop off shop a week ago still no information on the DPD tracking site.

The parcel was delivered on time but left at the wrong address. Luckily, the parcel was dropped along later in the day.

You are always professional and pick up and deliver on time at a rate that is affordable.

Booked through parcel monkey for a next day delivery of a Christmas gift on the 20th, due for a pickup on the 21st. Sat in the house all day waiting for the courier to come which they never did. Checked the tracking the next morning to see it said “collection attempt unsuccessful” even though they hadn’t gone anywhere near my house. Had many troubles getting in contact with DX Express where they eventually told me that they had not received the booking from parcel monkey and to get in contact with them. Was offered a collection date of the 29th and upon asking for a sooner pickup date my order was cancelled. Had a nightmare booking it due to poorly laid out website and even poorer experience trying to sort out the delivery. Terrible service all round, will not be using again. 0/10

It all worked well, good tracking, good delivery and collection
23/12/22 by customer
Despite following the many complicated instructions about which labels to place where, having the customs forms in a clear plastic walled so it can be removed etc etc…. The parcel was due to be delivered on Wednesday… no word. On Friday morning I received an invoice from Courier for an additional €20 for some sort of tax. Now won’t be delivered until the 28th… after Christmas and with absolutely no progress updates from Parcel Monkey. Expensive, complicated. Unreliable.
23/12/22 by Kerry Moores
Smooth transaction via UPS , other lesser companies I would never consider, all good delivered intact and on time , great 1st class
23/12/22 by m p
Next day delivery took 6 days!!! Between them and Courier an absolutely shambles. Tracker not updated, long wait on customer service calls and no offer of refund/compensation despite me incurring over £70 in costs to rectify matters
