I cannot find my parcel in my safe place. What do I do now?

Accepted Answer

Ask whether someone else (a neighbour or co-occupant) found your parcel in your safe place. Small parcels can also be delivered in your letterbox. If you still cannot find your parcel, contact the sender for a solution. Only the sender can submit a complaint regarding an untraceable parcel.If you chose a safe place under My Delivery Preferences and this was not respected, you can report this via the online form at the bottom of this page.Please note that in some cases we can't deliver&nbsp;to your safe place.

The postman only delivers your parcel straight to a Pick-up point or to another address close by if you have instructed us to do so in your delivery preferences. Otherwise, the postman will always pass by your home address first.
