If you are now a member of Parcel Wizard and are ordering form out side Ireland, just address your purchase to our UK Virtual Address and we will deliver to your home address or another address that you choose. There is a video of the process on the front page of the Parcel Wizard site that may be a help also. If you need any more info don't hesitate to contact me.

Ordered on Amazon Prime Sunday, delivered to South Dublin this morning at 09:30.

While PW and PM would both have received it into Antrim at the same time, i reckon it would have been Wednesday or Thursday for it to make it's way through the PM system.

I'm sure it's all down to volumes right now. I wonder how both will be doing come mid-December !!

If ParcelWizard keep to these very good delivery times during the Xmas season, they'll be onto a winner. PM I imagine will be delays delays and more delays like the last few years.

Did you get a job for DPD the past few weeks techmaster?

The think that makes PM attractive is you can pick it up when it suits you, not the delivery company. No one else is offering that yet.

What makes it attractive to me is that getting anything delivered to up the north is quite often way more faster and cheaper.

For example standard delivery on amazon.es for a CPU will take a week and costs €10 to my Irish address where as priority shipping will cost €7 to the address up the north and that is next day guaranteed.

Parcel Connect does. Deliveries from the UK and Ireland to your local shop:

For many people they were only using Parcel Motel for the UK virtual address and having it delivered to a motel when they could have it delivered to their home or work was actually a hassle. I know it was for me. PW is a much better alternative now for people like me.

The PW v PM argument has been done to death here.Each service has its advantages,some people like myself will prefer the PW home/work delivery option whereas the PM option of 24/7 collection from a locker will suit others.Its good to have the options and competition will keep prices down. So its all good

Hi I'm a parcel wizard first timer! I have ordered a product from the UK that does not deliver to Ireland so I used my pw number as I was shown in a sample when I set up the account, so it would be as follows: pw******* followed by my actual own address, I went into my account today and notice the tab for my virtual UK address, I presume this is the one I was meant to use in the first place??? And my parcel will never actually reach me now???

Thanks, I did use my own pw id, don't know if it can find its way to me from that, if not, it's not a big amount of cash. Thanks again!

That's obviously an issue on yodel's part rather than DPD's thou, out of curiosity, how are yodel's deliveries to Parcel Motel?

dvd

Yeah, no fault on dpd's part. I wonder what excuse yodel are using for not delivering to PW. Can they refuse to deliver to a certain address for no reason. Not sure about yodel deliveries to Parcel Motel

If you contact the company you purchased from and amend the address to the Virtual address you should get your parcel, it might cause some small delay but should work out for you in the end.

I got Yodel to Parcel Motel before.

But I can't understand why Yodel would not deliver to DPD because it's the best for the Yodel driver. The Yodel driver (sub contractor) get's paid by the parcel he delivers, so if he can drop xx amounts of parcel to DPD in one go he must be happy because it's money for him without the usual work.

You will need to contact the seller and ask them to sort it out because they have the contract with Yodel.

I'm sure DPD have an idea why seeing as they themselves had on occasions refused to deliver to parcel motel.

Only when we were asked by the sender to get a signature by the recipient named on the parcel.

Would you mind posting whatever correspondence Yodel sent you? I'm waiting on a a yodel order too, it's really a crock of s##t if they are refusing to deliver there.

Used it there for the first time, worked out really great, estimation on the text was accurate.

PW actually probably works out better for me cause im the wrong side of Athlone for the PM locker. The local shop is happy enough to take small parcels too if someone is not home

Hi thecivvie,

Once your free credits are used up and we receive a parcel for you, an email will be sent to you detailing payment options. You will also be able to top up on your UK Virtual Address page using paypal, credit and debit cards soon.

Excellent. I did miss a call from the depot dunno why as I am not expecting anything else. Maybe just asking how I rate the service 10/10
