Where is my parcel

Post by Keshammond »

Parcel from US
Usps state departed a transfer airport in Heathrow 07/02/21
I then usually get the package the following day.
However 6 days later it is still showing the same.
Telephoned both RM and Customs neither have it.
USPS have wiped their hands as state its in UK

As per previous USA - UK items its probably in UK customs, and there are delays which are outside RMs control.

Check them out, I have moved your thread into the Customers area to make it easier.

This is not my first parcel.
Once UPS have updated to this I ALWAYS get my parcel within 24 hours. At the very least it should have updated where the parcel is!!

I've had that same message on one of my parcel since the 8th of January.

Another one from the US was posted on 10th of January and I've heard nothing.

It's incredibly frustrating but there is nothing we can do apart from wait.

I've received parcels sent after this from US.
It is usual in US for items not to update in tracking but once it gets to UK there's usually no issues!

Then you are lucky, as I suggested check previous threads we have many asking the same question and getting the same answer.

Not everything is stopped, but not everything will make it through without Customs decideding to check a particular batch or a singular item.

it ALWAYS gets updated when it gets passed to them if it has a tracking number.

USPS Stateside - USPS Heathrow - Customs - Royal Mail. 1 out of the 4 NEVER scan.

Yes, as per previous posts check out other USPS customer threads in here. Some have delayed at least double your current length, at Christmas, it was even higher. I know it looks bad but the vast majority of items are being delivered eventually, just that some are badly delayed because of the impact of Covid and indirectly Brexit.

I sent a parcel to nigeria since jan 29 2021. By feb 11 update says parcel has left UK for the destination country. I was told at the post office that it would take 6-8 working day to be delivered to the receiptant. I have allowed over 2 weeks but no delivery. It took over 1 week to reach London sorting centre.
What delivery/ courier agent does the parcel delivery in Nigeria from Royal mail so I may contact them.
This is not satisfactory service.

Thanks

Its NiPost https://www.nipost.gov.ng/

However, please note we are not an official Royal Mail site so the delivery aim of 6-8 working days is not an issue we can address.
