Royal.mail.missed delivery

A common issue!

If you've received a "Missed Delivery" notice from Royal Mail, it means that the delivery driver was unable to deliver your parcel to your address. Here are some steps you can take:

  1. Check the notice: Take a photo of the notice and check the details, including the tracking number, parcel reference, and any special instructions.
  2. Contact Royal Mail: Reach out to Royal Mail's customer service team via phone (03457 740 740) or online form. Provide them with the tracking number and the notice details.
  3. Reschedule delivery: If you're not available to receive the parcel, you can ask Royal Mail to reschedule the delivery for a different date and time. They may also offer to leave the parcel with a neighbor or at a local post office.
  4. Collect from a local post office: If you're unable to receive the parcel at your address, you can collect it from a local Royal Mail post office. You'll need to take the notice and a valid form of ID.
  5. Check for any issues with your address: Ensure that your address is correct and up-to-date. If you've recently moved, you may need to update your address with Royal Mail.
  6. Track your parcel: Use the tracking number to monitor the status of your parcel. You can do this on Royal Mail's website or through their mobile app.
  7. Contact the sender: If you're still having issues, you can contact the sender of the parcel to see if they have any additional information or can provide an update on the delivery status.

Remember to keep the notice safe, as you may need to present it to collect your parcel or resolve any issues.
