It was easy to compare couriers. Once booking the print label is provided by Parcel Monkey directly.

Needed to send a heavy box of old magazines. Tried ParcelMonkey for the first time and got a price that was about half anywhere else. The box went via parcelforce, so I guess the experience is largely of parcelforce. The parcel seems to go as if sent by parcel monkey, so Im unclear what happens if it gets lost or whatever. But as my parcel was delivered perfectly Ill definitely look to Parcel Monkey next time too. On a much lighter, smaller parcel Parcel Monkey was not the cheapest (Royal Mail was) so always worth checking different sites for each parcel

Despite paying for customs using this site, a letter was sent to the recipient asking them to pay more money for the parcel. Terrible. Awful experience.

Excellent service. Arranged pick of of item late evening, picked up following day & delivered the next working day. Used Parcel Monkey twice in very short period. Would definately recommend.

Used Parcel Monkey many times to send various things inside and outside the UK. Easy to compare the service + price to choose the best courier.

Advertised delivery was 3 to 4 days. It took 10 days. Granddaughter disappointed on her birthday.

Great Service the only downfall is the big time slot 8am-6pm. Would be good to get a notification half hour or so before delivery/collection.

I needed to get a 20Kg bag of Plaster of Paris from Birmingham to Edinburgh in a hurry. Parcel Monkey collected it and delivered it the next day without a hitch. Excellent service at a very reasonable price.

I arrange courier service to pick up and I got the customer to stay in all day and they didnt come but marked it as the have been so re-book it for the next day available and they didnt come again not happy. So the customer dropped it off at a drop off shop so his time and his petrol ,and parcel monkey do not even care and Ive paid for it to be collected I didnt get a refund

Sent some books to myself ahead of my move to Portugal. Tracking was completely broken. Selected the parcelmonkey by road option and the tracking was claiming delivery before the package even left the country. Also, pretty sure it was sent by plane and not road. Ended up having to interact with one of the subcontracted companies a submit documents parcelmonkey already had for customs purposes, as well as paying some customs charges on personal goods.

Easy to use at much reduced rate than if you buy direct. Do beware though as I bought next day delivery on a Thursday and, whilst it was collected on Friday, the parcel was not delivered until Monday. This was not notified during my purchase. Otherwise a good service.

WORK WITH THEM IF YOU WANT TO RUIN YOUR BUSINESS. One of the worst companies, no different than others, they lost my parcel and did not even bother to help. I am really shocked about their customer service, they are unexperienced, rude and not helpful. Now i have lost my parcel, my customer and my money, all because of this company, Why i am responsible for your fault? I will take you to the Court, i want my parcel back!

OMG, how do I begin to describe the absolute shambles that is Parcel Monkey? In the final week of June I sent some golf clubs over to Italy to use whilst there this summer. I shipped them to a friend/neighbour with an estimated delivery of 7-10 days. After 2 weeks that hadnt arrived & I chased, after 3 weeks they had not arrived & I chased. My neighbour left to go on holiday. After 4 weeks they arrived with a 280€ bill (apparently Italian VAT & customs fees) & my neighbours son, knowing nothing about them, rejected the request to pay so much cash for an unknown item. At this point they were to be returned to the UK. After 2 weeks we heard nothing. They were last tracked after 3 weeks in the wrong depot. That was 7 weeks ago. I chase every week, if I didnt nothing would happen. Parcel Monkey standard response is: We will rechase the courier. Despite having insurance, they refuse to start a claim until the courier (who theyre chasing) confirms that they are lost. And so it goes on. Avoid.
