Hi there,

I sent 2 International tracked parcels from Ukraine to UK
RE021039599UA
RF020278527UA
but unfortunately they don't track on https://www.royalmail.com/track-your-item#/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and I get message: 'Tracking information is not available for this service'
Where can I check current status for both of them?

Many thanks

When were they posted? They might well be stuck in customs

RF and RE tracking numbers are registered letter-post so are not tracked as standard they are usually only tracked on delivery or attempted delivery.

BA-BZ for domestic, bilateral, multilateral use only
CA-CZ Parcel post
DA-DZ for domestic, bilateral, multilateral use only
EA-EZ EMS
GA for domestic, bilateral, multilateral use only
GD for domestic, bilateral, multilateral use only
LA-LZ Letter post: express / Exprès delivery

I know exactly that parcel with tracking number RD020429757UA has been received by recipient.
But track shows: Tracking information is not available for this service

Perhaps there is an issue with tracking system?

Both of those parcels(RF020278527UA, RE021039599UA) have been received by receivers. Tracking system still shows ' Tracking information is not available for this service'.
My gut tells me, it doesn't work. I paid for each parcel more then 10 pounds, but I have no ability to track them in UK. Please could somebody investigate this issue?
Many thanks.
