Great for microbusinesses

I've always found Fiona and her team to be as helpful as they can be whenever I have had to contact them. The service is easy to use and manages to keep costs to a level where a one-person operation like mine can afford a courier, when contracts and minimum package turnover are out of the question. The fact that Pharos uses world-renowned UPS means that I can have confidence that my parcels, however frequently or rarely I send them, will arrive in good time, having been treated professionally along the way.
For one-off, affordable parcel services, I would be hard pressed to find better.

Excellent shipping solution.

We have used Pharos for several years now and virtually never have any problems. On the rare occasions that things don't go like clockwork (mostly due to customers mistakes or demands) we love the fact that we can be talking to a real person on the phone in just a matter of seconds and the problem is solved. Thanks Pharos

Absolutely outstanding customer service

I have been using Pharos Parcels for the last 2 years and book all my UPS shipments through them as I don't have a UPS account.Pharos act as a broker for UPS and can organise same day collection if booked before 12.00
Its a brilliant service and the most economical I have found.I've seen a couple of negative reviews on trust pilot of Pharos with people blaming them for damaging their items..If you don't package it properly this can happen but you can't blame Pharos who are simply a booking service.
I have found their customer service first class and just to be clear I have absolutely no connection with this company..I'm just a very happy customer who thinks it right to sing someones praises when its due!

Dear Luke,
Thank you very much for your kind words.
We do try hard to provide a good service and you are right, packaging is everything.
On a next day service within the UK, on average 7 people will handle your parcel and it will travel down multiple conveyor belts all under really tight time constraints. UPS will still get your parcel from one end of the country to the other in many cases in under 12 hours, so a bit of thought in packing items goes a long way to ensuring it arrives in perfect condition. We use UPS because I do find they rarely damage parcels if they are packed in strong double walled cardboard boxes and properly packed and cushioned inside.

Arrogant, obstructive and dishonest.

This company subcontracted the delivery to UPS. I paid the extra insurance. My parcel was crushed. Over a month later I have had nothing but lies and excuses. I have lost over £250. I am writing this to warn others, do not part with any money to this dishonest company.

Dear Mr Graham,

We are sorry your motor part arrived damaged on receipt.

It is a very rare occurrence that items are damaged in transit but in the case of heavy large items which may not have been packed in a strong enough box, this can occasionally happen.

We have been chasing with UPS to try and find out why the inspection of your item has not taken place, and I spoke with your local depot yesterday who confirmed when they contacted you to arrange inspection you stated that you had disposed of the packaging.

As you know when you reported the damage we immediately sent you an email where we very clearly stated' you must NOT throw the box or packaging away, any claim is automatically voided if you do this.'
This is the reason we have not been able to process this claim and that UPS had not arranged to collect your item for damage inspection.

To process an insurance claim we have to provide evidence that the item had been packed correctly in a box suitable for the weight and size of the item.
We did state a claim may not be upheld if your item has not been correctly packaged in a strong box suitable for the weight of the item but if UPS cannot see the box to check this, the claim is automatically voided.

Vehicle parts are a prohibited item and we do ask you to check our list of prohibited items before you can complete your order.
Obviously when booking online we do not have visibility of the item you are sending and therefore are unable to advise you.
Therefore we do ask you to check before you can complete the order, that you are not sending a prohibited item and that it is packed correctly.

We have sent you an email this week asking you if you have as per our instuctions, kept the packaging for inspection and since then we have not received a reply from you, only this review.

From this we can only conclude you did not adhere to our requests regarding the claim.

Yours sincerely,

Fiona McLellan

Outstanding !

I have no connection with this company. The combination of low price and truly excellent customer service is outstanding. The service is very reliable and on the very rare occasions things go wrong they do everything possible to put it right.
I recommend them 100%

PAR EXCELLENCE !!!!!

From my experience with this Company I would have no hesitiation in recommending them. Customer Service was brilliant. I e mailed them in the evening and had a response first thing the next morning. On line booking was very easy. On telephoning the company they were very accommodating as to when the parcel would be picked up.

The price was very competitive for an 18 kilo parcel too. It was delivered the next day without any problems.

I have no hesitation in recommending this Company. The staff were brilliant from start to collection. There are many companies out there who should take a leaf out of their book !!!

Broken items. Extra charges.

I guess there is nothing more to add... My items arrived broken (telling me some cheap excuses to avoid pay for them) and They charged me near 50 pounds for the box sizing!!! How can I prove that I measured correctly 3 times the box? They say that they calibrate the laser every day... So now is my word against them but the only one who pay it's me!! Next time I should call a friend and he will record me while measuring to keep the video as an evidence. What a sight!!!

Dear Mr Espero,
I am sorry you are disappointed with our service.
We are sorry you sent an oversized box because of this we have been charged a considerable amount extra for this shipment.
UPS our carrier in this case are very generous in the sizes we can send, It is important to pack your items correctly and make sure you are using a new strong double walled box suitable for the weight and contents. It is very rare that items are damaged if packaged correctly.
Yours

Excellent Customer Care and Speedy, Safe Deliveries

I've used this company several times now to send parcels both within the UK and to Spain and have always had a great experience. Parcels have been delivered safely and within the time scales advertised. Any queries I've had have been dealt with professionally, efficiently and more importantly by a person at the other end of the telephone line.

I would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of sending a parcel whether within the UK or outwith.

Fantastic service and competitive pricing, highly recommend

As well as running a software business that requires us to ship documentation all over Europe, I also own a property in Portugal.

I found Pharos Parcel online but as they are fairly local I thought that would be useful. In reality this has been irrelevant as they collect from my office or home. Their customer service has been outstanding and when sending items to Portugal they have advised what I can and can't send.

I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to ship a parcel within the UK or to Europe.

Thanks,
Alan

will not use again, extremely dissapointing

I had to return and basin and a basing cabinet to a bathroom supplier. As they did not have their own collection services my builder arranged the return of the Items through Pharosparcel. Pharosparcel completely broke the items to the point that the bathroom supplier has refused to refund me the money for the items. My builder contacted them and Pharosparcel told him that these items are restricted and are transported at our own risk. Therefore, Pharosparcel has a wild card to charge me a fee and treat items carelessly and them disclaim any liability. I basically paid a fee for Pharosparcel to break two expensive items. As a result, I have written to them requesting a refund of my fees plus compensation for the damaged items. They have not replied to me so far and I might need to take them to Court if I want to recover my money. Very frustrating experience. As a result, I WILL NOT USE THIS COMPANY OR RECOMENDED IT TO ANY ONE.

Cheap Prices - Uncomfortable Website

In my mission to find the best / cheapest courier oiptions I have tried many sites - and this is up there with most of them.

Site makes me feel like I am buying off a guy named Terry who works out of his garage - pehaps his parent garage.

Prices are good, but once my above opinion was formed I cant see any way to keep using. Its just not very good, and that surprises me as the market is so competitive now. Didn't have many reviews so perhaps they are new and just starting out - will check back to see if they improve.

A VERY GOOD SERVICE.

YOU CAN TRUST IN THEM. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION OR DOUBT, ITS DEPARTMENT OF CUSTOMER ASSISTENCE WORKS WITH EFFICIENCY. IN MY CASE, ALL MY DOUBTS WERE SOLVED. ITS VERY EASY TO WORK WITH THEM.
AND ABOUT THE SENDING, BE SURE THAT ITS SERVICE IS SO FAST, CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT MY PARCEL ARRIVED IN ONLY TWO DAYS FROM UK TO SPAIN? WHEN I NEED TO SEND A PARCEL, I WILL CONTACT WITH THEM AGAIN.
I RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY.

MARCH, 22:
FOR THE SECOND TIME, I HAVE CONTACTED WITH THIS COMPANY.
MY PARCEL ARRIVED TO MY COUNTRY (SPAIN) FROM UK WITH THE SAME QUICKNESS AND SAFETY THAN WITH THE PREVIOUS SENDING. SO, IT IS EASY TO SUPPOSE THAT I ONLY CAN RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY AGAIN.

Excellent. Low Price, Detailed booking system, Prompt Collection/Delivery and genuinely helpful staff.

I'm a student, I shipped two boxes of personal belongings to central London from Scotland using standard delivery. I chose Pharos over the well known "UniBaggage" company and I feel vindicated having done so.
i) PRICE. £11.75 for boxes up to 30KG - 50% cheaper than the big well known company.
ii) FLEXIBILITY. Pharos afford a bit of flexibility RE the 30KG rule. Some companies will refuse on collection. What's more, in the booking section, weight increases in intervals of 0.5KG meaning a lower price for slightly heavier items.
iii) ATTENTION TO DETAIL. The booking process takes into account needs on an individual basis. Customers enter their own descriptions of contents and weights, which appear on the label. There are no fixed, and often inappropriate "categories".
iv) INSURANCE. It's based on the customer's valuation of the contents, and the charge corresponds. Again no "packages" which can be misleading or unnecessary are used.
v)PUNCTUALITY. Collection and Delivery were prompt, and within quoted timescales. For standard delivery, items were received within 24 hours.
vi) SERVICE. For after-care issues the staff are responsive, and genuinely care. They will operate in a business-like manner with the customer's issue at the core.

In all I feel happy to have used Pharos, and I will again. My experience with the company show they are ideal for a variety of customer for a variety of reasons. From students, to business people, to conscientious individuals - the cost, speed and care shown by Pharos make them an ideal choice.
