GBLALA is our International Mail Centre at Heathrow (HWDC), it has no customer facing system so you are best contacting customer services, twitter is a good way @RoyalMail.

But first check Royal Mails own track details site at http://www.royalmail.com/trackdetails" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; it may help when you contact them.

It's probably stuck in customs, it's not unusual for stuff to be stuck in customs for 4 weeks or so

Can anyone tell me how can I find out when my post is going to be delivered? It's still in Gblala and it has been three weeks since I've sent it. I am very anxious to find out…If you have any advice please do tell, thanks.
