So upset! I bought an item off Amazon yesterday it said it would be delivered Friday, it never once mentioned it was being sent by Royal Mail so of course it was delivered TODAY by rm!! And I missed it, now the sorting office is closed so now I won’t have my daughters present for tomorrow as they are striking 😢 it said it was going to be delivered tomorrow by amazon I paid a lot of money for this item.

Yes This definitely worth a try AND contact Amazon to see what they can do

Always one 🙄😡

Riskofbeingsued · 22/12/2022 11:24

Our sorting office always helps the same day. I'd go in and ask them today

Namechangeoftheday · 22/12/2022 11:26

Try at the sorting office OP, fingers crossed for you! If not, would you be able to buy another and send one back? Or tell dc that their big present is extra special and will take a bit longer to arrive etc

Isittrueornot · 22/12/2022 11:27

Go and ask at the sorting office. The postie might be dripping all the parcels there before he finishes their shift so try again late afternoon too.

Try begging?

Not all items on Amazon are sent from an Amazon warehouse. I assume it was a marketplace item and they have their own choice of delivery methods.

ChristmasRoses · 22/12/2022 11:33

I ordered something from Amazon for Christmas and it turned up yesterday, delivered by Evri. Except that instead of what I ordered they have sent 6 serrano ham dog chew bones. I don't even have a dog. I'm seriously not happy.

NinjaWarriorCooker · 22/12/2022 11:33

If you know the route your postie takes, try and find him on that, if not go to the sorting office and try and catch him as he comes back.

Namechangenoidea · 22/12/2022 11:33

Yes go near the end of the day so it wont still be in the van. Just be really nice and ask if there is anything they can do.

Helpful in sorting the problem!

Does it matter?

What matters is that she paid for a delivery that didn't happen when they said it would.

Oh for goodness sake, it’s a fair question. The OP hasn’t been able to afford it at any point in the last year, but suddenly can two days before Christmas, knowing there’s a postal strike and the couriers are absolutely snowed under too?

toomuchlaundry · 22/12/2022 12:04

Maybe it’s because it just came up secondhand on Amazon and the OP could afford it, but couldn’t afford it new
