Royal Mail recorded delivery question?

Question

Hi

I bought an item from ebay on the 2nd of august it has been posted on the 4th, when i used the Royal mail tracking service it says the item was delivered on the 12th of august, but no one was at home, but i cant find any note, ad i was at home anyway, i have to hphone a number and arrange a redelivery, i was wondering if the product would be at my local post office, because its just 2 minutes walk from my home, or do i have to call that number as i havent got the "sorry you were not in" card.

Answer 1

it should be at your local post office just go and check it out ask them if its not theyre which number you can call for a redelivery attempt, sometimes they even let you pick up your package they will ask you for some id to make sure you are the owner of the package

Answer 2

It won't be at the local post office it will be at the local sorting office.

Answer 3

call the post office and tell them  

Answer 4

it will be at your local sorting office

Answer 5

Get in contact with the tracking people again and they will tell you who signed for it as they will have the record of the signature (perhaps a neighbour signed for it). They will be able to tell you where the parcel is if no-one has signed for it or they will have to pay you for the item.

Although after reading through you question again, I would imagine that the parcel is at the main sorting office if you have to phone to arrange a re-delivery.

Good luck.

Answer 6

RM Postie here - have you checked the tracking site yet to see if there is a POD.  http://track.royalmail.com/portal/rm/tra...

If there is then your postie may have given it to a neighbour.  If not then I would pop into your local sorting office as soon as possible and see if they can track and trace it - they will have more access to information than you can on the website.  Or call 08457 740 740 - which is the national customers service number.
