La Poste should realise that it has gone to the wrong place and redirect it. However, we have often seen that the tracking stops on items that pass through a third country. So a lack of tracking doesn’t necessarily mean that it is stuck.

Thanks for the advice. I'll wait a few days and see if it gets delivered.
If it doesn't is there any way I can speak to somebody at PO Customer Services about it?
What's the best contact number to use?
