10 Days and my Parcel still hasn't been delivered 'Sales Order Raised '

Post by SCOOBY_666UK »

Hi,

I posted my Parcel on the 13th of November, 2015 (Royal Mail 48 Service). The tracking is showing that it is still yet to be delivered?

Tracking Number: ZF904276408GB

16-NOV-2015 08:22 Sales Order Raised
13-NOV-2015 17:05 Accepted at Post Office

What on earth is going on with my Parcel? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards

Ask the Post Office branch to have a look to see if they've misplaced the item. From that tracking it appears that it hasn't left the Post Office branch yet. Might also be worth asking the person/company that you're sending it to in case it's somehow made it through the system after the Post Office branch without being scanned (very unlikely though)

Royal Mail 48 has a rather confusing name but is actually a Second Class equivalent home shopping return. Hence the 'sales order raised' after sending. It isn't a fully tracked service and it doesn't have a guaranteed delivery date.

As a customer, your responsibility is to get it to the Post Office and get a receipt for it, which you have. Any further issues are between the online shop and Royal Mail, you don't need to get involved.

Barcodes beginning ZF are Tracked returns, and are treated as Tracked.

Next scan event should be a "Accepted at Inward Mail Centre" scan somepoint overnight tonight
