    From my experience, Parcelforce and your mail are 2 different things, our postman never delivers parcelforce items, a van usually does.
    I think that, if you are not in they will, either try to re-deliver the mail the next working day (They don't deliver on week-ends as far as I am aware), or, if they leave a card you have to go to the central Royal Mail office and get it from them. They usually hold they item for 5 working days.
    If you call them they should be able to tell you if they are holding an item for you as they sort it out through your postcode.

    ^Did yours arrive in the morning?

    Thanks for the reassurance. It's just a !!!!!! take that they state "attempted delivery" when I was at home waiting for it.

    No mine came around dinner time..mine also said 2 attempted deliveries and i was in! Its so annoying :mad:

    Did you pay for a Sat. delivery? If not then it is unlikely they would have attempted. The driver may have put it on by mistake and was just making an audit trail by podding it as an attempted delivery. Wait and see what happens Monday first.
  • Well, now my tracking says "out for delivery". Phew! I was getting worried there!

    Thanks for the replies!
