“I am waiting for a parcel that should have been delivered today. The tracker has not been updated since 06.32 a.m today. Not being the person that placed the order on you originally, there seems to be no way of making contact and the reviews are not encouraging about the outcome. Also the tracker is extremely unhelpful, just a list of arrival and departure times, my parcel could be in Mongolia for all I know.”

“Absolute disgrace. Did not deliver goods despite having missed thee delivery dates. Had to re-book four times and still did not receive goods. Customer service nonsense - have no intention of resolving the issue. This is the worst company I have EVER dealt with! AVOID”

“This company is a scam. you have to chase up yourself and they hardly come and collect on the right day. If you don't chase them you will be waiting for days still with no grantee they will collect the parcel. It's been the fifth occasion and yet the still fail to collect the parcel. Awful service”

“Shocking. Do not use this dreadful company. As mentioned before, they accept that they have lost your parcel but then in order to get a refund of postal costs I have to prove collection, provide proof of non-delivery and proof of contents value - even though I am claiming for postage only. They say Don’t worry, though — we’ll still issue a refund on the cost of delivery should your claim be successful. Why should it not be successful? YOU LOST THE PACKAGE! Shameless”

“Shocking service would never use again ...their next day service is not as advertised....took 5 days. Customer service is just as poor, lack of ownership of issues and no corrective action.”

“A company that asks what your package is worth, charges you for lose then loses it and asks you to prove value of the item , prove that it has been collected, prove the item has not been delivered , even though their own tracking shows collection and non delivery, in fact try to make it as difficult as possible to claim. no customer services you can talk to , just emails if you have problems, USELESS”

“This is the worst thing ever! DO NOT TRUST! I paid for tracking, but when the parcel was lost I could not get any help from their rude customer service OR I could not get any money back EVEN THOUGH it was insured. I will never buy from there again. I lost my parcel and never got any money back from it even though I paid for insurance.”

“They lost my parcel and here we are 10 days later still repeating all the numbers and dates just for them to come back with details of the wrong parcel. You cannot contact this useless firm the telephone is ALWAYS engaged and if you select a ring back function it does ring you back but you get the ringing tone until the phone gives up and shuts off the call. The only way to get them is by live chat and that's worse than useless as they don't read what you send back leaving you to endlessly repeat everything. I don't particularly want compensation, just the parcel delivered! Clearly they hope that I will just give up from complete frustration! They did deliver the previous parcel without any problems so I guess they stand at 50 50, but IF you have any sort of problem they don't believe you and will not talk to you etc etc. I always used Royal Mail before with absolutely no problems, but they are expensive - however if you cost in the days I've spent trying to get these cowboys to do anything to help and my blood pressure, perhaps RM not so expensive!! My advice is don't use them or if you do make sure they pick up from you (costs a little more) AND GET A RECEIPT and a photo of van and driver would be good as well and keep copies of everything for at least a month. I don't usually complain but I have never come across a company so anti customers - it not the mistakes, everybody can make them, it's how (a good company) would correct the problem. Cheap company - cheap service and no principles - AVOID”

“Currently in a battle with Parcel2go - they are trying to get out of paying a claim after mistreating the parcel I sent. The item sent is not on their no compensation list yet they are trying to twist their categorisation to avoid a relatively small claim. Really disappointing and at the moment I'd really recommend avoiding them like the plague. P2G if you ever want to actually provide a decent service review P2G48074501.”

“My parcel containing many sentimental items was lost. No attempt was made at all to try and find it. They refunded the cost of sending parcel but the items were irreplaceable. The parcel was never tracked and when I raised this as a concern I was just told this is how it works. By the time they accepted it was lost it was then probably too late to find it. Awful customer service-just a live chat with standard responses.don't use this company”

“Theyh dont have any contact details to get support or help... they simply do not want you contacting them in any way shape or form. You have to get their email and number from complaints forums where people let you knwo the number... but really should you have to hunt around like this. This is the first issue but the second comes when they refuse to refund you or compensate you if they lose or damage parcels. You were warned”

“1. Parcel2Go is a middleman connecting you and courier companies and making a hefty £50m+ a year for no work done.Period! 2. If you send parcels via their website and select UPS Express Saver or UPS Express, you are eligible for a refund as per the terms of UPS UK which can be found by searching "UPS Money-back guarantee", however, Parcel2Go will deny you any claims. Guess who goes back to UPS to make the claim for themselves? Parcel2Go. 3. UPS Express for inland deliveries is a guaranteed service, both time and day-definite, however, Parcel2Go will issue a UPS Standard shipping label and claim that they do not guarantee delivery or pickup, when you have paid for Express service. In effect, you are being ripped off. 4. If possible, go directly to the courier companies themselves. You will get a better deal. DHL, FedEx, TNT, Parcelforce etc. 5. For the love of mankind, avoid Parcel2Go, as they take all the benefits from the courier companies and leave you with all the liabilities!!! Update 20/12/2017: 1. It is absolutely bull to claim that courier companies require individuals to send £50,000 worth of goods in order to open an account. DHL does a good job of opening accounts for individuals, likewise UPS, myHermes, TNT and all the others. There are no limits to these accounts. You can send one package a year, or 10,000 a year. No limits. 2. 24 hour customer service? Who needs that anyway when courier companies have manned customer service desks during the day when deliveries are being made? What does your customer service do at 11pm in the night when a courier company has failed to deliver a package and the receiver is upset? Does your customer service send a team of sympathisers to the receivers address to comfort them? You add no value to the delivery chain. You are just in it to make money; another company putting profits before people! 3. You assertion that you do not guarantee deliveries (when the courier companies whose services you are piggybacking on do) is also bull. You know why you don't guarantee your deliveries? So that you can make the claim from the courier companies yourselves and keep 100% of the proceeds from the claim, in case they fail to deliver. This is how to rip off UK consumers 100%. Kudos for that!! 4. With 75% of Christmas deliveries being delivered outside of promised time-frame, I believe consumers should be given their money back for failing to uphold your end of the contract. 5. I sent a UPS parcel to a receipient in Italy on December 18th via UPS Express Saver, which is supposed to be delivered on the 19th December. Due to a mechanical failure on a UPS truck, my parcel was not delivered until 20th December. I had to refund the customer and contacted Parcel2Go for my money back, as UPS Express Saver is a money-back guarantee service. Parcel2Go denied my refund however, as a logistics industry veteran I am more than certain that Parcel2Go will contact UPS and claim the refund from UPS and not pass it to me. I have chat transcripts in my possession denying me of my right to a refund, whereas Parcel2Go will in turn make use of the UPS money back guarantee to seek money back and keep it to themselves. Parcel2Go are well aware of this hence, they have no telephone numbers on their website to call when dealing with them. It’s the worst company I’ve come across in the UK managed by amateurs!!! If you want Proof of Purchase, this is your reference number P2G46868123 and don’t tell me service description is incorrect when it is clearly stated on the UPS website that UPS Express Saver is a next day delivery service with a money-back guarantee!! A simple google search will confirm my assertion.”

“Worst experience ever! Skipping the fact they didn't pick up the parcel on time (I had to change it to drop-off), my tracking wasn't updated since Thursday last (a week now) and the parcel was meant to be delivered the latest by Tuesday gone. No communication from anyone, when I contacted them I was simply told they had to open an investigation with the courier (@[103705176332482:274:DPD UK]) that will take up to 10 WORKING DAYS! In 10 working days the person that was waiting for his birthday present will be back in London! And even worse the very unhelpful 'customer service' girl that I spoke to (bearing in mind this was the 3rd person I was talking to about the issue) decided to insult my intelligence by telling me that my parcel wasn't lost when they said they couldn't find it - I don't know about you but that, for me, is the exact definition of losing something! No offer for refund or compensation what so ever - how can a company with such affiliations only have 1 way of communication with them? No direct numbers, nothing! "We've emailed them and they'll get back to us soon" isn't a solution to a problem that can be solved with a phone call - and possibly employ people that can actual do their job properly other than give your customers stupidly aggravating excuses for attempting to provider a service - note that I say attempting because you are failing majorly at what you're mean to be doing! Sort your company out before starting to get a reputation for being unreliable and borderline scammy!”
