Package from UK to ITALY "arrived at delivery office" problem

Post by turokz »

Hello everybody

Just ordered some clothes from a UK store who used ROYAL MAIL for delivering to ITALY.

order made January the 19th, 2023
First royal mail tracking at JAN 30
had different tracking movements through France till FEB 13, where the last tracking message I got is "arrived ad delivery office - 761340"
so I googled that code along with Royal Mail and it says it's a place near Russia.

what do you suggest to do now?

I messaged the store and they told me to contact my local delivery depot who supports Royal Mail parcels as they have my order
I tried calling Poste Italiane and they still can't see the order in their system

Thanks in advance

La Poste will have either forwarded it on to Italy or returned it to the UK, either way it's likely stuck in customs (either in the UK or Italy)

Interesting, thanks for the answer. What do you think is the best course of action at this point?

This is the heart of the problem. Tracking often doesn't work properly when an item passes through a third country.

Check your contract with the seller. If it is now passed the time when the item should have arrived according to the contract then you need to claim from the seller.
