"The item is now ready for delivery" - Since Friday 04/09

Post by RougeLapin »

Hello

I am expecting an item which status has been "Now ready for delivery" since 4th Sept. Here are the full tracking details / points:

Date Time Status Track point
04-SEP-2015 02:52 Accepted at Inward Mail Centre London Central Mail Centre
04-SEP-2015 02:51 Ready For Delivery Mount Pleasant EC1 DO
04-SEP-2015 01:22 Sales Order Raised
03-SEP-2015 20:05 Accepted at Outward Mail Centre Greenford Mail Centre
01-SEP-2015 04:02 Pre-advice Received

Shouldn't I have received it by now? Or am just worrying for nothing?

Many thanks

It depends what service they sent it by but normally yes - However as the Ready for delivery scan was before the Inward MC one (albeit at same office) I would contact Royal Mail direct to see what they say. Twitter handle is @royalmail

I did actually. They say the postie may have trouble finding the address which is unlikely since I have had dozens of items delivered at this address in the past (the last one no later than last week actually) :(

The service used is Royal Mail Tracked Signed For™

UPDATE: I went to the Mount Pleasant delivery office this morning. The person told me the parcel could not be located. It entered the building on Friday 4th Sept and should have gone out for delivery but did not for some reason.

I filed a complaint so he could start an internal investigation...
