Can i stop sent royal mail parcel

Yes, you can stop a Royal Mail parcel from being sent, but it depends on the stage of the delivery process and the type of service used. Here are some options:

  1. Before dispatch: If you've changed your mind or no longer want to send the parcel, you can contact Royal Mail's customer service team to cancel the dispatch. You'll need to provide your tracking number and a reason for cancellation.
  2. At the post office: If you've taken your parcel to a post office to send, you can ask the staff to stop the parcel from being sent. They may require you to provide a reason for cancellation.
  3. During transit: If the parcel has already been dispatched but hasn't been delivered, you can contact Royal Mail's customer service team to request that the parcel be returned to the sender or held at a local post office for collection.
  4. After delivery: If the parcel has already been delivered, it's generally too late to stop it from being sent. However, if you've received a parcel by mistake or it's been damaged, you can contact Royal Mail's customer service team to report the issue and request a refund or replacement.
