Guest Bogue Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Not sure if right thread but, got a tracking number for a record package from abroad which is very late arriving. Just been on to Royal Mail site & find you can't track a package coming 'from' abroad on their website, if you click on "how to track a package from Abroad" button, it just says, basicaly, you can't ! Which seems a bit bloody pointless putting the question up on their site in the first place don't you think ? So what do you do with it ? Anyone ?

Dave Moore Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I'd presume you go to the US site if that 's where the package originated from and put the tracking # into the USPS system. Of course the only thing it will tell you is whether the package has arrived in UK or not. https://www.usps.com Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I have tracked items in the past on the Royal Mail site. You netre the 13 digit number in the tracking box but from memory you have to change the US (country Identifier) to GB. It should tell you where in the system the package is. If it hasn't left the US yet use the usps site Dave posted. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Bogue Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Thanks guys, dosen't appear that you can do it any more on the Royal Mail site. Yeh, US is pretty good actually Dave, should have said country in question is Argentina, which makes it a bit more difficult. Will try & google Mail Argentina see what that throws up Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 This last month has been terrible for "lost" packages, we think most will turn up as "lates" because of the strike. If they don't, the Post Office have got a little band of very active "tea-leaves" at mo'. Our "lost" count is 10 times higher than normal. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Makes you wonder if some have been taking advantage during the strike ? Hope not, as i've got to say that in 4 years & some 3000 odd records i've only ever had one not turn up ! I reckon the post service world wide is fantastic ! Hope it's just late, but been nigh on a month now so starting to wonder ! Seller is as honest as the day is long too 100% ebay record & a frequent seller too ! Edited August 21, 2007 by Bogue Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
