WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING TO PICK UP MY PARCEL FROM A PARCELLY LOCATION?

WHY IS THE PARCELLY CONSUMER APP NOT WORKING?

Our consumer service ceased in 2020, we notified all existing subscribers and paid booking customers in Jan 2021 and Dec 2021 that the deadline to either unsubscribe or to utilise paid bookings would be 01.01.2022. We also added a goodwill grace period from 01.01.2022 to 30.11.2022. Since then, our consumer services have been terminated. 

You can still use our more than 4,500 UK, Ireland, and German collection points. Simply order online and have your parcel delivered by one of our associated carrier partners. Whilst the Parcelly consumer app is no longer supported and is not available on the App Store or Play Store, you can now process parcel collections and returns simply via the notifications and collection information we share with you by text and email. 

DO PARCELLY OPERATE PARCEL LOCKERS OR BOXES?

Parcelly provides parcel shop services only, we do not operate any parcel lockers or boxes.  Please get in touch with the carrier who is handling the collection or delivery of your parcel if you have any further questions.   

CAN SOMEONE ELSE COLLECT MY PARCEL FROM THE PARCELLY LOCATION?

Yes, someone else can collect your parcel from the Parcelly location on your behalf if the person can provide your proof of ID and correct Parcelly ID (Collection code). 

HOW LONG DO I HAVE TO COLLECT MY PARCEL FROM THE PARCELLY LOCATION?

The time you have to collect your parcel from a Parcelly Location is carrier specific and therefore depends on the courier that delivered your parcel to the Parcelly location. Collection times can also vary depending on the online retailer you purchased from, the delivery method you selected and other external factors. On average you have 2-7 days to collect your parcel (terms and conditions apply). 

CAN I RETURN MY PARCEL VIA MY PARCELLY LOCATION?

Yes in principle. Parcel returns via a Parcelly location are carrier specific and therefore depend on the delivery method that was arranged by the online retailer you have purchased from. Return options might also depend on the delivery method you selected at check-out and other external factors. Please contact the online retailer to confirm your available return options before dropping off a parcel in one of our Parcelly Locations (terms and conditions apply). 

I THINK MY PARCEL IS LOST, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Parcelly is not involved in the actual distribution or carriage of your parcel. Hence please refer to the sender of the parcel or check the parcel tracking facilities of the distributor (if applicable). 

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY PARCEL IS LOST, DAMAGED OR STOLEN AT THE PARCELLY LOCATION

Deliveries to Parcelly locations are stored in pre-approved, secure storage areas at the Parcelly location itself. In the event that your parcel is lost, stolen or damaged by the Parcelly location, we may be able to compensate you to the value of your article and a maximum value of £50. If you have chosen to pay for additional compensation cover, you may qualify for compensation to the value of your article and a maximum value of £200. Claims must be made within 28 days of your delivery date and include any photographs or packaging as evidence of the damage. 

HOW CAN I REQUEST MY PERSONAL DATA TO BE DELETED?

All personal data processed by our system is controlled by the associated carrier of your parcel.  

Parcelly Ltd is appointed Data Processor for all parcel carriers as we do not determine the purposes nor the means of the processing of your data. 

According to the European Union’s (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the decision to provide access to or to delete personal information is to be made by the Controller, not the Processor. The Controller directs their Processors as to what should happen to the data with written instruction. Furthermore, the GDPR prohibits the Processor from acting on their own accord with the Controller’s data. 

Please contact the entity you provided your data to. Any requests from our associated parcel carriers will prompt a deletion of data in our system.
