What do I do if my parcel hasn't arrived?
If your parcel doesn't arrive after 30 days and you're told it's lost in transit, your next step should be to get in contact with the retailer you bought from. This is, just like delayed parcels, because it's the retailer that you have a contract with and not the delivery firm.17-Dec-2021
Missing or late delivery? Complain to the retailer. You should complain to the retailer as it is responsible for undelivered goods, not the courier. This is because your contract is with the retailer, who you bought the goods from.06-Jun-2022
What happens if my parcel is missing?
If your parcel hasn't arrived: Check the delivery address you gave the seller, to make sure it's correct. Then contact the seller and ask where your order is. If the seller claims they've delivered it or doesn't know where it is, you can ask for a redelivery.
Weather conditions or traffic – It is not so rare that during busy periods, such as holidays, or heavy snow, the transit times can be extended, and your parcel may take longer to arrive at its destination.07-Jan-2022
Why is my parcel tracking not updating?
Most often when a parcel's tracking has stopped updating, it is simply due to a small delay in the delivery, or a delay in the tracking system registering the parcel's progress. However, if your parcel tracking has stopped for more than two or three days, there could be complications with the delivery itself.
