Incorrect address parcel from US to UK lost?

Post by upsydaisy »

I have a parcel that was sent from the US mid-February to me in the UK. It arrived at my local delivery office but it only had my street address on so it was returned to sender. Royal Mail last tracking had it leaving overseas on March 10th.

USPS have it returning to the UK from US. This is what their tracking says:
Your item departed a transfer airport in HEATHROW, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM on March 15, 2022 at 10:51 am. The item is currently in transit to the destination.

Can anyone help as to where it may be? Someone said it could be customs.

Yes, I concur that's the most likely place.

Thank you both. Do we just wait then? USPS didn't seem to have a clue where it was when I called them.

Nothing you can do.

At present, *most* of the delay is because USPS took 3 weeks to get it on a plane.
