Always overcharged on GST because commercial invoice does not have the freight rate included.
By William B on 27/12/2023
I try to use Parcel Monkey often. My packages almost always get delivered to Singapore with no issues. The problem is that I always get massively overcharged on the customs GST because the company with the brown trucks and uniforms uses their list shipping (full retail) rate for calculating my GST. This rate is literally 4x what I paid for shipping and adds another 8% to my shipping costs. This happens because Parcel Monkey does not include the shipping rate with the commercial invoice. Singapore customs tells the delivery company to use their list shipping rates when no shipping fee is included with the commercial invoice. I've tried to explain this to Parcel Monkey but they don't seem to have a way to fix this.

Inaccurate delivery times
By Lindsey on 22/09/2023
What's the point of giving a delivery range if it's no where near accurate. I know customs is involved but that should be taken into account when giving a delivery range. I usually pay for more for expedited shipping and there's just no point because it's always a week later.

Dear Lindsey,
We appreciate your feedback. Please note that our delivery estimates don't include weekends, as shipping carriers typically operate on weekdays. Regarding customs delays, while we strive for accuracy, these delays can occur and are beyond our control. We value your business and are here to help with any questions or concerns you may have.
