I sent a phone mobile to Envirofone (to get some £££'s to help pay for it's replacement), and according to Track & Trace is was delivered at 06:18 this morning! I wonder what time Macclesfield DO starts in the morning in order to get out on the streets by that time? :whistle

Ah yes, of course! Can't believe I didn't think of that!

Shouldn't Track & Trace be showing a scan into the office ("Item out for delivery"?) before the delivery scan?

I imagine that a large company with hundreds of tracked items in a day could get a delivery direct from the mail centre, not only when the local postie trundles past with his trolley. It seems believable to me that a large business like that could accept bulk deliveries at that time of day.

I once sent an item off to a big company to get repaired. Tracking said it was delivered by rm before 7am and the company website acknowledged receipt shortly after. There was no 'out for delivery' scan which made me think it was probably a delivery direct from the mail centre.
