Are you the sender or recipient of the item?

Also where abouts is it being sent to in Portugal and is there a similarly named place in California to your knowledge?

That doesn't make any sense unless you puchased an item and the sender gave you the wrong tracking number. As far as I can tell the item wasn't normal post but classed as registered mail in the USA, the equivalent in the UK being International Tracked.

Yep TrueBlueTerrier it was an mistake made by the store (sender) they gave me the wrong tracking number, Royal Mail help me to solve that via twitter, never thought the wrong tacking number thing. Still have my package stuck in Germany since 06/07/15 anyways lol GLS ftw or not... Thanks again for the help :cool
