Hi,

I'm curious to know what this status actually means in real terms?
Item has left our International Processing Centre Heathrow Worldwide DC, United Kingdom
Also shown as
Your item has left our International Logistics Centre and is on its way to you. More information will be available as it travels through the network.

Has it cleared customs? Has it been despatched to a local sorting office?

I ask because this status was last updated yesterday, with no further updates.
In the past once it hits this status, it's very quick moving through - in almost every case it's been at the sorting centre early AM the next day and in my hand shortly after.

So I'm interested to know how far along the chain this actually equates to.

Thanks
