On Thursday 11th December I was due to receive a parcel that was being sent to me by Royal Mail. However no package was delivered, and instead I received a message to say the parcel was incorrectly addressed and was being returned to sender.

Royal Mail Group Parcel delivery

Received an email to advise no one was available to accept a delivery as it seemed no one was home. There was someone home the whole day and no evidence at all on the ring doorbell to show any delivery attempt. When trying to arrange collection, I can’t do no this on the app as I don’t have a “sorry we missed you card” which would confirm no one attempted delivery. Cannot speak to anyone, cannot arrange collection, app just takes you around in circles…..Shambles!

Ordered Christmas cards from the cancer charity Penny Brohn online, 12/11/2025. Had already ordered and received a set of their cards 22/10/2025. Absolutely perfect service from Royal Mail.

Dear Royal Mail Customer Service, I am the sender of the parcel with tracking number 021338520319D223. We had attempted to arrange a redelivery, but the recipient did not receive any “Something for You” card, which seems to have caused the delivery issue. I am currently out of the country and will not be available to receive the parcel at my addre...

I have had a product delivered to me using this same address and this around they returned the product back to sender claiming it is a wrong address. I paid for royal mail because I wanted the product delivered faster and I had to wait the following week which wasted my time and now after waiting for almost a week y’all returned the product back...

According to Royal Mail's tracking, they intended delivering an item to me on 20 Nov. They didn't. The tracking changed to 'Will deliver the next working day. They didn't. Four days later the tracking is exactly the same as it was on 20 Nov. I've seen their delivery van a little earlier, but the postman had nothing for me. It is impossible to contact them...

Royal Mail Group Postal service

I did not receive my television magazine for the week 8th Nov to 15th Nov
this is not the first time this has happened, I have the subscription to save me money which is pointless if I don't receive the magazine. I have been told by the company who deal with the magazine that they are all sent out at the same time every week. I would appreciate your co'operation with this complaint

Claimed loss: £5.98 up to now

Desired outcome: my magazine being delivered on time, and refunded for the magazines I did not receive or turned up far to late to be of any use

I had my birthday last week, 16th October, and several people have told me they have sent me cards and one person has sent a voucher in the post. One other card may have also contained money or a cheque. However I haven't received these cards a week after they were posted. What do I do to find out what has happened to them please? They were sent a few days before 16th October.

Royal Mail Group Delivery status

Hi! My name is Catalin Rusu, I`m from Romania, and I sold on ebay an item that has been sent to Karl Muir from Workington, UK, tracking number RN783072435RO. The problem is that he got the item on october the 4th, but the delivery status has not been updated, so I can`t access my funds on ebay until you update the status as delivered. Please, solve this issue! Thank you!

Royal Mail Group Leeds sorting office

This is the second item that has been held up/ lost at Leeds sorting office. No update or explanation. I buy vintage items and the items cannot be replaced. Often I find an item which I have been looking for a while so you can imagine the disappointment and annoyance is great. I buy a lot by post and have never had this problem with other couriers.

Desired outcome: I want my item and a response

Parcel sent 12th Sept and it left the UK on 17th Sept. Tracking number...RZ538693441GB. It's now the 7th Oct and still not delivered and unable to track it any further and not able to contact or speak to a person. This is a very poor service for a company this size, not being able to get to a real person for help, as the bot thing doesn't understand what...
