“Total scam. Booked a delivery with ParcelForce through them. Nobody ever arrived to collect the item and I can't get hold of anyone to complain and request a refund. Please do not use them!”
“This is the worst company, I have ever had the misfortune to come across . I booked a collection for my place of work ( Dental Surgery ) which has staff there from 8 am to 6 pm 6 days a week .
My parcel was not collected by (Parcelforce) the tracking said customer not in at 2.30 pm !!. which was rubbish . after contacting parcelcompare I was told basically they dont believe me and no refund could be made . I had CCTV to prove no courier attempted to make the pick up / no card was left by them as evidence of an attempt to collect. Don't use this company they have no customer care at all ..”
“Lack of support and service, I'm disappointed with the company. I wasted a lot of time and money with the lack of company information. In the end my bag was returned and I had a charge 3x higher than the shipping cost.”

“Reading these reviews scares me because my percel has been stuck in their warehouse for over two weeks. No phone contact and nobody answers emails. Looks like am waiting for a shocker here to hear other people have been charged to have percel returned.”
“Guys these reviews are real, They said delivered but nobody received the parcel and no signature.
This company takes a picture of the floor as proof of delivery. Further more will not repay for lost parcels.
Scam artists most likely keeping your parcels and selling online.”
“I am still in the process of trying to get something delivered urgently (after paying extra for it to be a 2 day delivery abroad) and 3 days later I cannot get hold of Parcel Compare for love no money. There isn't a phone number to call and they are not responding to emails! Reading below it scares me as to how this will end!”
“Absolute nightmare of a company. Delivery went through them and selected UPS, they dumped my delivery on the driveway and drove off without acknowledging us. The “fragile” package was smashed to pieces, and had to be skipped!! They then offered a measly £15 off voucher to use them again. Said my insurance only covered loss not damage!!! Cost me £50 for the delivery then 4 weeks later I find they have charged another £50!!! £100 down and a whole lot of hassle. Stick with other companies this one is definitely the worst in the Uk.”
“Fraud! I tried to send 2 different parcels with this company (I spent £100) and they did not delivered the boxes, I tried to ask for my money back and instead they charged me another £100 to return my boxes in a very poor condition. I felt robbed!! £200 for nothing.”

“What a shiiiit... Do hire them never! They dont have a phone number, and answer your emails too late. I hired them because they offered me next day delivery. I lost my money and time. Disgusting.”
“If only i could give less than 1 star .. Please just avoid this company for your sanity sake. If anything goes wrong that's it and i can assure you things are very likely to go wrong with ParcelCompare. They are just thieves with license, i have no idea how that is possible in a lawful country. Their customer service are practically toddlers without any clue what Customer service is all about. They don't have a contact number to ring. You can only write on their website and hope to God they will respond. My item was lost, after wasting my time for over 2 months they closed the case with no compensation. The courier (UPS in this case another company to avoid) told me they have paid compensation to ParcelCompare but ParcelCompare will not pay the compensation to me. Absolutely disgusting
.... For those who find their comparing site good, please just use it only as a search engine don't buy from them. If you find a good price with any courier on ParcelCompare you must go directly to the courier company and buy directly from the courier ( price is usually the same) because if anything goes wrong the courier company will not deal with you if you buy through ParcelCompare.”
“Trust the bad reviews: AWFUL, HOPELESS SERVICE.
No communication on where the parcel is or how to get it to reach destination, appalling customer service (when they bother replying) and embarrassingly they blame the shipment companies.
A month later, and 15-20 conversations later, with customer support, the parcel came back with an EXTRA CHARGE CHARGED ON CREDIT CARD without authorisation.
Pay the shipping companies directly!”
“Like others, this company failed to deliver my parcel, as they didn't text or email the recipient in Europe regarding customs.
Then, without informing me about whether I wanted the item returned and whether there were costs involved, they returned the parcel to my neighbour and charged me automatically for the 'return costs' which amounted to even more than the initial delivery cost-which I have still not been refunded for!
They have breached the law and their own terms and conditions. Beware of this company, they're running a complete scam.”
“Absolute scam.
10 days after UPS collected my item Parcelcompare emailed me to say that the parcel had been audited by UPS and the weight was infact double the weight i had quoted. I had to provide photogrpahic evidence of the additional weight or they would charge me an additional £56 (original cost only £20).
Clearly i could not provide a photo of me weighing the item but semt them a screenshot of the product details thay clearly should the item in the package being slightly less than the packaged weight i had quoted.
A few days later after i appealed, they came back and said the item was also 3.6m long rather than the 1m i had quoted, and again demanded a photo of the item with a tape measure next to it.
How the UPS driver who collected managed to pick up and put in his truck, all on his own, a 3.6m 40kg item is beyond me.
I can only assume that this is nothing more than a scam. Wow a low delivery cost and then take out of your account a massive surcharge later when holding your parcel hostage.”
“I had to send a parcel to Romania. £35 to be pick up by TNT. I've printed the labels and the invoices, all good so far. What I spotted was that the address on the delivery label doesn't match with the delivery address from the shipper's copy and customs invoice (the building number was missing from the delivery label), fact which is so doggie as I put al details good. So I've cancelled the shipment but even though with the shipment cancelled the driver arrived to pick up my parcel. I'm waiting for refund.”
