    Ah ok best give them a call. I assume you booked direct not via one of the cut price brokers? If it was a broker you might have to via them.

    I booked online
  • Hello All.

    The online tracking is still showing nothing about my package - I tried phoning today but i cannot seem to get through to a person!!

    It's driving me crazy
  • Can anyone help?? - What should I do? - I cannot seem to find out anything on online tracking and I cannot get through to a person at parcelforce!

    the phone lines are open from 9am to 5.30pm....or use the "contact us" option on the tracking page

    sorry, there is no point us speculating what the problem might/could be....you will need to speak to parcelforce to find what the problem is.

    I have tried to call but you cannot get through to a person, its just a computer system thing.

    It will be closed now...try during the day...or is there a local office in your area you can speak to.

    so why didnt the system tell me that i could not send my parcel via parcelforce 48 to northen Ireland?

    You can.

    According to this page there are 3 zones and exceptions within which delivery cannot be guaranteed in 48 hours.

    I'd be more concerned about the collection details not showing up.

    Er, that the Royal Mail charge you for a service and then don't provide it?

    It happens hundreds of thousands of times a week........it's the price we pay for allowing them a monopoly on the postal service.

    Err have you been out of the country? RM's monopoly ended on the first of January 2006!!!

    I hope the OP gets the problem resolved, the online tracking system is fairly new and still has a few 'bugs' ringing them would be the best idea.

    I have already called them BUT CANNOT get through to a person - Its just a computerised telephone system thing - how do I get through to an actual person at Parcelforce?
