Well I chose one of the couriers and they stated that the International Parcel would be delivered to the Netherlands from the UK within 2-3 business days… 8 business days later still not delivered!!
Must remember that saying in the future… Don’t believe everything you read!

Arranged a collection, waited in all day for it, heard nothing from them to then check my account to see if maybe there was an update why my collection had not been picked up just to find a message on there saying "Thank you for letting us know the parcel no longer needs collecting" ???????? What, why the hell would i wait in all day if id canceled the collection!!! Will not be using again.

I have had numerous successful dealings with Parcel Monkey over the years. They have always been cheap and efficient. My latest shipment on the 12th, was subject as everyone else - to a ridiculous £64 fine for being over weight. I looked into this and they had claimed the weight was 10 KG not the 28 KG that I had declared. A simple error I thought, how can they charge me for my parcel weighting less? When disputing this problem, I have been informed actually the parcel weighted 48 KG. Massive difference to 10 KG that they had originally claimed. I have now been asked to prove that my parcel didnt weight 48 kg, after the box has been chucked away. It seems this is a known scam Parcel Monkey do to its customers and I will now strongly advise to stay away from this company as you will notice it has no telephone number to contact and it saves your card details to add these fake fines. A ridiculous business model which I have been stung by.

Shocking service. Parcel was booked and supposed to be delivered within a 2-3 day international service to Denmark for a birthday gift for my 5 year old goddaughter and after 5 days it still hasnt even left the UK. So upsetting. I would normally use another company who always deliver as specified. Thought I would try this but will never use this service ever again!

Great service ever, thank you for always being on time.

Parcel Monkey did great! They collected my boxes on the day arranged and even made it a bit earlier so that I could get my stuff out of the storage space. I received everything within a week despite sending things between two non-EU countries and having a lot of customs checks. Would definitely use their services again :))

I have used parcel monkey once and I wont use them again. They managed to lose a huge 32kg roll of fabric and all they can say is "sorry for the inconvenience". Appalling.

delivered on time with good tracking information, thank you.

Not used parcel monkey before but our first experience has been very impressive. Clear and having listed all contents for Australian customs despatched box through post office. It got to Melbourne very quickly. Will certainly use them again,

Fantastic service never had any issues/simple and convenient.
But my last parcel I paid £18+ for next day delivery.Collection was Monday and took 5 days to be delivered.
Would also be so much better if there was an option to download a QR to your phone and scan at the post office so save printing out the labels
Overall highly recommend great platform will continue to use

Great service, went with UPS rather than Parcelfoce this time and the delivered to the US in 3 days. Parcelforce/ US Postal was more like 7 days. So will definitely going with UPS in the future.

My parcel wasn’t collected and I’ve not received an email explaining why. This is why I’m giving it this rating. I’ll be asking for my money back!

Worst experince ever - never collected, in end I had to take boxes to post office and then they never came for them there either! Absolute Clowns both them and Parcelforce - a farce made in hell - well matched - avoid these jokers! Parcelforce have a cheek to to go on strike for more money! Absolute goons

Jesus , this lot must be run by 5year olds , I’ll never use these ever again. Booked a parcle to Mexico months ago , all they kept saying was we need address names passport info , we done this all 3 times over! Now it’s being returned and they want me to pay ???? Small claims court for refund if we don’t get it. And a bank charge back AVOID AVOID AVOID !

Do not use this company for your own sanity It is mentakll health week and I am in the process of losing my mind on a £250 parcel I bought which I booked through parcemoneky for DPD to collect from Manchester. Its two weeks and they dont know where my package is. I have provided proof it was collected from the site. Yet this company cannot provide a status on the location of my parcel. DO NOT USE < PARCEL MONKEY IS A FRAUDULENT AND INCOMPETENT COMPANY.

So easy to book and so much cheaper than any other service! Was bit worried cos i sold bulky item on ebay and it weighted way more than my estimate, though Id be paying twice as much for postage than i charged but then found parcel monkey and it was even cheaper. I dropped the parcel in post office and it was delivered 2 days later. Thank you!

Awful company using even worse sub contractors (Dpd). I paid for a 2 day delivery service from the UK to Ireland. I was posting the contents of one of our suitcases home due to not having much storage space where we were staying. The parcel never arrived even though we were also charge VAT on the parcel. So we now have no belongings and have spent money on absolutely nothing. Lucky us though.... Theyre refunding the measly £16 it cost to send the parcel. Never mind the cost of our belongings!! I was given a 7 day window to claim for my belongings but unfortunately did not have access to my emails during that time. They couldnt care less though. Never mind that they had a 2 day window to deliver my belongings and failed!! Will never use again. Shocking customer service.
