Absolute joke of a company, do not use. Your parcel will never reach its destination. Our parcel went missing with no trace. Customer service shocking. Informing police, when you read reviews happens all the time. Disgusting company. Needs investigating.

If I could give a Lower rating I would. Parcelforce have managed to lose an Anchor, yes a big ships anchor. This company should not be used at any cost, this was a sentimental valued gift for a very elderly person for their garden. Someone should tell this company that the whole idea of a tracking system is that at any point on its journey you can trace where your item is. This company should be ashamed of the way they conduct their laughable service and hang their head in shame. Never again will I TRUST. Parcelforce with any item for transport. CEO of this business contacted and should be embarrassed of the services he provides

Totally inept useless company. Waited all day for an urgent package which did not arrive. Tracking is a joke and customer service is non existent. They use temporary drivers who haven't got a clue and obviously are not competent enough to do their job. Avoid at all cost.

I ordered a shipment from the UK to Dubai. The shipment got lost and it took Parcel Force more than 3 months to declare my shipment as lost. I took out an extra insurance for my products and am now waiting since several weeks for my insurance money. Parcel Force is an absolute no go, staffed with unfriendly, unwilling and incompetent people - at least the ones I was dealing with!

My new driver to SW2, Jeff was a complete surprise. I was 10 minutes before go out to Post office with parcel after two days no show for pick up. He was very nice, treated parcel with respect and all apologies for mix up and would speed parcel on it's way to destination.

Never ever use this company. According to them, they tried to deliver my parcel once and it's obviously a lie as I work from home. They didn't even have the decency of leaving a card and I found it out accidentally. I rescheduled the delivery and they came on the wrong date and now the status of my parcel is "delivered". Obviously, I haven't received anything. It's impossible to speak to their customer service and I only managed to send a complaint by filling out a form. Waste of money and time plus dreadful service!

I sent a care-package from Ireland to my son, who has been in a hospital in the UK for months without any visitors due to the Covid lockdown. He never received it. Today, a month later it has been returned with a sticker saying 'No Answer" - Really??? No answer at 4 pm on a weekday at a HOSPITAL!!! Obviously, no attempt was even made to deliver the package. Abysmal and dishonest - another shower of cheating spivs who've captured an essential service. Shame on you ParcelFarce. I will lodge a complaint with the Irish postal service through whom I paid for this 'service'.

We have been working with Parcel Force as a company for over a year. Barely any of our deliveries have been fulfilled within the requested and paid time. We always had issues with nearly 90% of the parcels booked. Their customer service is extremely difficult to be reached and also the staff members are very rude and not helpful at all. Worst logistics company ever!

Awful service no customer service ... been waiting for a parcel in Spain for 2 months they handed over parcel to gls Spain and it’s been sat in their hub for 6 weeks and said they can’t deliver because parcel is to large.. why would parcel force take a parcel that was to large to deliver and it’s only a chair now no one wants responsibility for it and out of pocket by £200.... Would not recommend these companies to anyone

useless wont give any indication of when the parcel is due so you have to sit in all day and they wont leave it or give you to option to leave it if it requires a signature

Worst service ever! I had a parcel coming from the USA. They failed to deliver to my address for 3 times. On calling them, the answer was always "The delivery driver did not found anyone at home". I work from home and in two occasions I was at home all day. No one showed up; neither they left a card. Eventually, I had to go to ParcelForce depot to collect my parcel.

Delivery driver is rude arrogant and abusive to customer. Parcels damaged severely with broken goods. Parcels opened with foot prints on the inside of lid. And the outcome the customer is to blame According to management there without even considering the poor treatment from their unprofessional drivers. Would never recommend or use Parcelforce again.

On 22/07/2020 I sent an envelope size A4 containing 3 pages of letters not weighing more than few grams to ISTANBUL , Turkey with Parcelforce company. I was charged £42.18, promising to be delivered within 3-4 days. In fact It took 9 days. It would have cost me under £15 with Royal mail recorded delivery and less days. My advice is avoid ParcelforceI, they are useless. Note: I found out that UK Governments offices , such as HOME OFFICE , does NOT recommend people to use ParcelforceI for sending documents. I give ParcelforceI UNDER one 🌟.

On 22/07/2020 I sent letter size A4 containing 3 pages of letters not more few grams in weight to Istanbul (Turkey). and arrived on 30/07/2020. I was charged £42.18, promising that it will arrive to destination within 3 days. In fact it took 9 days. It would have cost me not more than few pound sterling had I sent it with Royal mail recorded delivery and would have arrived in less time. My advice، DO NOT USE Parcelforce services if you want your parcel arrive fast. Note: I have found out that the UK Government official offices such as ( HOME OFFICE ) DO NOT recommend sending documents with Parcelforce.

Don't even bother sending parcel internationally with parcelforce. It will be extremely delayed and damaged.

Shame in the name of Shipping company. Worst shipping company i ever deal with it. First and last time. Pvbi8552203001 was my tracking number. First day they failed to deliver the parcel. When i spoke with them they agreed to redelivery the parcel on next day. I wake up 7 o'clock and waited whole day but unfortunately didn't came up i phoned them and they said sorry due to size of parcel we couldn't deliver today and again promised me to deliver next day. Again same things happen unit i get my parcel after one week. Honestly worst company ever.
