Just Awful, had so many problems with parcel force over the last year that it fills me with dread if I am sent anything through them... the latest is an xmas present for a relative thats now a 160mile round trip stuck at they're depot! the delivery driver couldnt even be arsed to fill any details on the failed delivery slip just left it blank no tracking number nothing!!!! have tried twice on they're website to redeliver to new address and still nothing... this is 3 months after going through hell after they're driver claimed to have delivered and got a signature which was obvs fake, took over 30 phone calls and a month to sort!!!!

We’ve been waiting for delivery of a parcel for about a week now, still haven’t got it. Today they say they attempted a delivery but no one was in, absolute lie by the driver as someone was in all day actually waiting for delivery. Rubbish!

No warning of when this parcel would arrive so I was not in for the attempted delivery. Clearly did not try to deliver my parcel as my neighbour was in all day and we also have a safe place to leave it which is clearly obvious and every other delivery company uses it no problem. There were options on the card left to deliver to a neighbour, leave in a safe place or take to a local post office but instead my parcel was taken to a parcel force depot 40 miles away from my house (and 80 mile round trip!). Thanks very much for the huge inconvenience! Alternative is to pay £6 for another attempt at delivery which I’m not sure I would trust! Absolutely useless!

Poor is an understatement. They are thieves!!!!! I’ve lost £350 worth of goods because of their incompetence and they took 4 months to get back to me let me know they would not provide the compensation in entitled to. Royal Mail should not partner with this appalling company and they are also washing their hands. Truly disappointing.

Avoid parcelforce, I took multiple days off work to receive a package which never came, said they attempted to deliver which they didn't and said they left a calling card which they didn't and then told me my address is wrong! Royal mail have never had an issue finding my address. Why charge me when you cam delivery on your services, stressed out my pregnant wife and told her to come and collect item from depot as I no longer have any more days off work. Avoid avoid Avoid!!!!!!!! Please use ANY other carrier service and avoid these thiefs

Deliveries of goods from the warehouse to our shop did not happen several times and got delayed. Which means a lot of sales opportunities lost. Not acceptable but they just did not improve the service.

If I could give no stars then I would. Perishable goods sent to me with express 24 on 13/12/18. It is now 18/12/18 and they still haven't arrived. It's been sitting in a NW Hub for 2 days but customer advisor doesn't know where that is. Then it's been sitting in Aberdeen for 24 Hours. Still not arrived to me. One excuse after another - we don't deliver on Saturdays. We don't deliver to your area the next day as you are in the Highlands and Islands. Aberdeen - Highlands and Islands, really! Why sell express 24 when I clearly means anything other than a next day delivery. Dreadful service.

A complete joke = you pay £17.70 express 24 for next day delivery and they don't tell you the parcel is held over night in a central hub. IN the end you find out that it is delayed and they don't give you a reason about from the fact that they have thousands of parcels to deal with! So what, if you can't deal with the job don't do it. Don't use this stupid Christmas period as you constantly let us down all year round. I have decided to boycott once and for all royal fail and parcel worse. These shipping companies are a disgrace and constant let down!

I wish I could give less than one star! Rubbish service, full of liars, so unprofessional whoever is in charge should be ashamed! Getting my parcel from them was so hard and with several phone calls a day it took over my life for over a week. I will never order from a company who uses Parcelforce ever again.

Do not ever use this delivery company. Not by any chance. They have ridiculous rude and helpless costumers service, the delivery driver never leave delivery note so you actually dont know did he really attempt to deliver...I went to the industrial area of Acton myself because there was no other chance for me to receive the parcel. When i called costumers service or messaged them on Twitter they simply said the parcel is back to the depot you can come to receive it here but I did paid for delivery from 1 to 3 days to my house. The woman from costumer service even hang up the phone until I was talking. She just hang up for no reason!! I think they all feel super miserable with their job and are having satisfaction and fun when someone is worried about their parcel and call or messege them. Their complains team is even worst, so please always check which one is the delivery company before you ever purchase anything online. And if it's parcel force be prepared for everything.

Parcel in transit 4 weeks. within the EU. No customer service representative was able to correctly locate the parcel. Non of them tried to resolve the issue. For price of 80 pounds my parcel is still not delivered. I have been contacted by the customer service person today to tell me that they couldn't deliver it for a week now due to lack of contact details. They have the address on the box. i am not sure how come this could be an excuse for not delivering the shipment. they didn't attempt top deliver it to the address, never received a delivery note from the courier. SO Unimpressed.

Your tracking facility and complaints department are an utter shambles. Three days I have waited in the house for a delivery. Each day the tracking facility has said that the parcel is out for delivery. The company is a joke.

Appalling service. Customer services are liars when you complain. Waited 7 days for an item to be delivered !! After the last no show I was told “the consignment was down as a collection from the depot by the customer” !!! A truly shocking company !!
