Do royal mail send emails about delivery

Yes, Royal Mail does send emails about delivery. Here are some examples:

  1. Tracking updates: Royal Mail sends automated tracking updates via email to keep you informed about the status of your parcel. These updates may include information about the parcel's location, the estimated delivery date, and any changes to the delivery schedule.
  2. Delivery notifications: Royal Mail may send an email notification when your parcel is out for delivery. This email will usually include a one-hour delivery window, so you can plan accordingly.
  3. Delivery attempts: If Royal Mail attempts to deliver your parcel but is unable to do so (e.g., because you're not home), they may send an email to inform you of the attempted delivery and provide information about how to arrange a redelivery or collect your parcel from a local post office.
  4. Delivery issues: In some cases, Royal Mail may send an email if there's an issue with your parcel's delivery, such as a problem with the address or a delay in delivery. They may ask you to contact them to resolve the issue.
  5. Special delivery notifications: If you've opted for a special delivery service, such as Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed, you may receive email updates about the status of your parcel and any changes to the delivery schedule.

To receive these email updates, make sure your email address is registered with Royal Mail and that you've opted in to receive tracking updates and notifications. You can do this when you book your parcel online or by contacting Royal Mail customer service.

Remember to keep an eye on your email inbox for updates from Royal Mail, as this will help you stay informed about the status of your parcel and plan accordingly.
