“Appalling company failed to collect my arss your a joke”

“Absolutely appalled, every parcel i have ordered through this company in the last month, has failed to be collected, resulting in me contacting them numerous times to put it right, they never apologise or admit the fact they have a rubbish system that takes the money and gives false ''order within**hours for collection tomorrow'' deadlines. An important parcel had to be collected today, and dx never showed up, contacted parcel2go, as i took a full day off work unpaid, so this collection could happen. No apology, i wanted to cancel so i could use a more reliable agent to book through, but ''ALEX'' decided to re-book the collection without my consent or request, meaning i now have to have another unpaid day off work tomorrow. I asked several times when the re-collection date was, and was ignored. I asked for the address/email so i can send a formal complaint, also ignored. Only way i found out the collection was re-booked for tomorrow was getting an email from them. Absolutely disgraceful service, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID !!!!”

“Many devices and belongings have been stolen,the expensive things up to £600.boxes re-pack with plastic film as it was and I realised the robbery too late for claim.via chat I have been jumping from one operator to another until the chat expired 2 times and start again with all the process. Shame on you parcel2go and palletways.”

“If I could give zero stars I would. They do not care at all about customer service. I had problems with delivery, they did nothing to help. I had paid extra for refund if parcel didn't arrive on time, I was told incorrect amount and only received half of expected money back. This is completely lost on them, all I am offered is a goodwill gesture of a prepay amount which is fine if you have another parcel to send or likely will in the future but I don't so this is completely useless to me and again, this has been lost on them.”

“I cancelled my postage a few minutes after I ordered and paid for it when I noticed an error I had made. I never received the refund!”

“The courier that I booked through Parcel2go failed on two occasions to collect a parcel, delaying collection by 7 days. I cancelled and opted for a competitor. Would not recommend using this company.”

“Due to their error and not sending a customs label the parcel cannot be delivered and is where no one knows? therefore I have lost money but they will not apologise or accept responsibility. They will not refund postage even though I paid more incase parcel did not arrive to be covered. They just say it is out of their hands. It feels like they have stolen from me and reading other people's reviews online I am not the only one. I hope someone takes them to a small claims court.”

“DO NOT USE - I used them to deliver a parcel, paid for extra insurance. They said the parcel was delivered but it wasn't, it was delivered the next day but damaged. Even though I paid for extra protection to cover the cost of the items they won't pay out as for pictures they only cover for non delivery not damage so obviously they know they can't trust their couriers not to damage items. They said they would refund the amount I paid to them but they have only refunded some of it. Will never use them again and wish I had checked the reviews first.”

“Sent a parcel with them on 18 September. On 5th October, I contacted them to ask confirmation that it had been delivered as it was clothes to return to a retailer for me to get a refund. They pulled out of the online chat saying they were having issues then sent me an email to say they were were on the case. On 8th October, there was no update and they said they were still enquiring. On 13th October, the same. On 25th October, I raised significant concerns on the online chat. They again opened an enquiry saying this would last 7 days - it had already been 20 days. Now it's been 23 days and STILL no response. Will they ever find my parcel? Do I just have to accept that I can no longer have my £233 refund for my clothes which I returned? They've lost my package and despite trying to talk to them about this for weeks, there's no resolution and no communication! P2G78162404”

“Do not use. Sent a phone that I sold on ebay. Payed for extras included guaranteed delivery and full protect. Parcel showed dropped off to shop and collected by delivery driver. Then all tracking information stopped. Reported is P2G and they opened a case. Almost a month later I am still trying get my claimed sorted and they just stall and keep asking for more and more information. Latest is I needed to blacklist the phone which I got ee to do ee sent email confirmation and now P2G will not accept the email from EE. Stay clear at all costs”

“Continued vandalism and do not collect when promised!! Do not use!! Over the past two months I have sent two parcels, both of which have arrived damaged and parcel2go have accepted no responsibility, and done absolutely nothing to support resolution. The first was a spice rack for a wedding present, with jars of spices and foodstuffs, the parcel was clearly marked as fragile, had ‘this way up’ signs on all sides, and was packaged with plenty of precautionary packaging. This parcel was delivered upside down (!!!) with the contents smashed. Parcel2go said I could have £12.14 returned, and did not look to investigate at all or resolve further. The second package, sent last week, was for my sisters birthday, and was a handmade coffee table. This was packaged in cardboard to prevent scuffs, as I’m not sure what else it could have been packaged in without using an enormous box filled with insulation and foam - in reality, I should have used a shipping container!!! As for collections, on the agreed date, the courier did not turn up, not word as to why, the only thing parcel2go would say was ‘they’re not guaranteed, so you can either book again for two days time, or have your money back’. By this point, any idea of having the parcel delivered on my sister’s birthday was gone, but parcel2go did not care in the slightest, no offer of expedited delivery, no offer of any other resolution. Begrudgingly I booked for two days time. I received a wealth of emails from Hermes saying they were and were not coming, and I needed to book again. Eventually they came and collected the parcel, then I received an email saying they weren’t coming and I had to book again. The next day, someone then turned up for the parcel which had already gone the day before - utter shambles. Complete embarrassment on the behalf of Hermes and parcel2go. However, at least the parcel had gone. On arrival at destination, both I, and my sister, were met with severe disappointment and horror. The table has been smashed in two, with only the top arriving and the legs were somewhere between Bristol and London. Having made the table myself, at a cost of c.£300 excluding labour, I can confidently say the piece of furniture was extremely sturdy and fit for any kind of couriering - except that provided by parcel2go and Hermes! There is not a doubt in my mind the parcel was subject to malicious damage. The table top was affixed to the leg section with four coach bolts, one of which had been severed and the others had been torn from the legs. The table must have been smashed up with extreme force, knowing what it was, with the view to destroying it. Why? That’s anyone’s guess. On consulting parcel2go, they said they could refund the courier cost, and nothing else. They have no interest in furniture that is damaged, only furniture that is lost....! In this instance, they have lost half of the consignment!!! For a collective of people who’s job is to courier parcels from one place to another, both Hermes and parcel2go do an appalling job! Whilst understanding there may be human error, bumps and scrapes in the process, there is a minimum duty of care to the parcels that must be afforded by these people, and on two occasions (100% of the time) they have not even come close to meeting this. Customer service and resolution is non existent. From companies that have done extremely well out of a difficult year, it is troubling to see such abuse of power and blatant disregard for people’s possessions. If you care at all about the contents of your parcels in these difficult times, use a reputable courier company such as UPS or TNT, or support local business. Go to them directly as well, cut out parcel2go! Horrible company.”

“Bunch of crooks - paid for guaranteed delivery to Australia, Parcel was playing ping-pong between UK depots when it should have been delivered. Finally arrived 10 days after guarantee date. Refund of carriage agreed but subsequently rejected. No reason given and all communications ignored. Ombudsman cannot help as own 'insurance' not covered by Financial Services Act. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!”

“Would rather give no stars a bunch of crooks! Sent revision materials to Botswana on 8.9.20 with gaurenteed delivery on 11.9.20. The parcel has remained in Gaborone for 5 to 6 weeks! All they do is give you excuses from a script. I am now demanding a full refund of the approx £50 delivery and insurance costs plus £50 costs of revision materials. It is 22.10.20 and exams have started today so these materials are now redundant.”

“Absolute garbage. "Attempted collection of the parcel failed" because the customer (aka.me) wasn't at home apparently. While I was monitoring the front door and next to my phone the entire day and NOBODY even attempted to get in touch or come near the house to collect it. The worst thing that the collection time for today hasn't ended, and yet they refuse to try pick it up again. They don't give a damn if it is their fault, that the time-sensitive parcel won't arrive in time. never using this company again.”

“I paid extra for a package of value £259. They lost it. Took 2 weeks for them to admit they lost it. Then they declared that despite me paying for insurance they're not insured themselves, they underwrite this service themselves, and asked me to prove that the item was not delivered. Despite their own tracker showing it was not delivered. They then stated that there is no timeline for them settling the claim. And two months on I'm still waiting.”

“Unreliable - don't use for anything precious or expensive that you cannot afford to lose About 20% of my parcels have gone missing over the past few months, affecting the profitability of my business and no compensation received from Parcel2Go.”

“Use this company at your peril. My parcel has been missing for two months and I cannot contact them by any method. The package is insured but I've no idea if the have even thought about making a claim. I'm rapidly giving up hope of ever hearing from them again.”
