Absolutely appalling

Absolutely appalling. "System Glitch" meant my pallet showed as collected when it wasn't. Promised collection next morning as a priority. Failed at that as well. First and last time i will use them. I have requested a refund and will be finding a different company who can actually do the job

I can't reply so adding my response to national pallets here: The number i gave is the correct one - this is the whole point, the pallet showed as delivered the next day but was not - you'll have the multiple call recordings of my conversations with your team. I can even supply the ring doorbell footage of the delivery about 5 days later if you want!

Good morning Graeme,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that your experience has led to a 1-star review.

I’d also like to clarify the order number, as the one provided appears to have been collected and delivered without any apparent issues. I'd be happy to look into this further if you could please confirm the correct order reference.

We are more than happy to look into this for you. To assist you today, we kindly ask you to provide your consignment number, which begins with "NAT" followed by 7 digits.

Hi Juan,

We're sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your frustration. After reviewing your order, we found that the courier attempted collection on the scheduled day, but the collection point was unaware of the arrangement. As a gesture of goodwill, we waived the charge. Once we were informed that collection could only take place the following day, we upgraded the service to a different courier to avoid further delays. Unfortunately, the second courier was also unable to complete the collection as no one was at the property.

Could you clarify where you feel the service failed in this process so we can look at improving in the future?
We sincerely apologise for the challenges you've encountered and appreciate your feedback.

Best regards,
Customer service representative.

Failed colelction, Incorrect delivery addresses, 'No-show' collections, False / fake tracking info, Lies and false promises....

Save yourself a load of hassle and avoid this company at all costs.
To sum up the experience, and I've experienced all the below on the only two pallets I've ever sent with them ...... (And will only send with them!)

Couriers turning up a day early (Than the scheduled collection date)when its not ready / no-ones around, then not turning up at all on the due collection date, Pallets being marked on the online tracking system as 'Cancelled' mid way through the delivery and no one knowing why, or the whereabouts of the item (Still to this day!),
Second pallet - being marked as 'collected' on the tracking even though 4 days later its still sat here on my yard not collected. The first pallet arriving at the destination of the second pallet (Delivered to wrong address even though the delivery stamps stated the correct address), around 150 miles apart.
Very poor communication - you physically cant get hold of them by phone, the line just dies after one ring. The online chat system just takes you in circles "we're very sorry for the convenience and will provide you with an update as soon as we hear back" and you get no update, so you try again the following day, except your greeted by another agent now and have to go through all the details again only to be promised fake promises and lies once again.

Save yourself a whole heap of hassle and unnecessary stress and just pay a bit more and send your items with a reputable, reliable company such as some of the larger pallet companies.

Hi Geth,

We're really sorry to hear about your experience, and we completely understand your frustration. After reviewing your order, we can see that the courier selected does not offer tracking, ETAs, or direct customer contact—only internal email communication. We always recommend choosing one of the couriers on our site that provides these features for a smoother and more transparent service.

That being said, due to the issues you faced, we upgraded your service as a goodwill gesture to ensure a better experience. We sincerely apologise for the challenges you've encountered and appreciate your feedback.

If there's anything further we can do to help, please reach out to us at concerns@nationalpallets.co.uk, and we'd be happy to assist.

Best regards,

Poor experience

This was a very poor experience, collection was a week late and delivery was 3 weeks later than scheduled, which is a disgrace. The only reason this is not 1 star is because the support staff (online chat) were prompt in their replies and the item did eventually arrive. This was a delivery from UK to Ireland.

Missing Pallet & Uncontactable

I currently have a missing incoming pallet delivery and no way to contact anyone or find out where it is. They have subbed the delivery out to a courier and say they can't get in contact with them, and won't tell me who it is so I can't make any effort myself to locate the pallet. The chat agents are worse than useless. Do not use this company.

Good afternoon, Chris,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that your experience has led to a 1-star review. I’d like to clarify a few points to help address your concerns.

We are a comparison platform, not a courier service. When booking, you’re presented with options from different carriers to choose from. It seems the issue stems from booking with two separate carriers, which has caused some confusion.

The pallet number provided has been successfully delivered. If you have further questions or need assistance with any orders you’ve booked, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at concerns@nationalpallets.co.uk, and we’ll be happy to help.

Kind regards,
Anna

Do not use this company. Booked a pallet for a special next day delivery service but it was never collected. Promised to issue a refund but will see if this happens.

Good afternoon, David,

Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear that your experience has resulted in a 1-star review. Before we proceed, I’d like to clarify that, while we aim for collections and deliveries to run smoothly on the booked date 99% of the time, occasional delays can occur. These may be caused by factors such as delays at prior stops, adverse weather, or staff shortages.

That said, I’d be happy to investigate this further for you. However, the NAT number you’ve provided does not match any of our order numbers. Could you please confirm the correct consignment number? It should begin with "NAT," followed by 7 digits starting with the number 3.

We’re here to help and look forward to resolving this for you.

Kind regards,
Anna

Pallets were not collected

Pallets were not collected - driver claimed that they were not there for collection which was simply not true as they were on a customers drive.
No contact number to use to report this or discuss resolution. It took 5 days for someone to respond by email and another week for the pallets to be collected. They demanded another payment in order to attempt a further collection. Absolutely abysmal service

Bad Experience

Then charged me £25 For an attempted collection acceptable pallet even though I paid for oversize from the service is quite disgusting

The worst parcel company on the planet

The worst parcel company on the planet, operates under various names such as parcel2go etc. You cant speak to anyone as its all done on Live Chat, the people on Live Chat are not interested in sorting there issues out. We were charged £30 for a failed collection even though there driver didn't turn up! When the driver didn't turn up again, surprise surprise another £30 explained we had CCTV and we are a secure site, not bothered either pay the £30 or lose your original money.....Eventually admitted they had made a mess but we had to email "Concerns" to sort it out, "Concerns" never even bothered to Reply
