help royal mail left non-delivery card but no tracking details or where depot is?

Hi wonder if anyone has had the same situation as me?

I have had two royal mail non-delivery cards neither has any tracking number or place of depot so how can i track it or track it?
.
I cant recall ordering anything and cannot find it in my emails.

On the mail website you need a tracking number or contact the firm it came from?

Any ideas?

    You will have a local RM delivery office - one of ours is XX south, the other XX North.  Work out which one your postcode covers, then take the card to them and they should be able to sort it out.

    No, all you need is your own post code.

    What colour are the cards? A yellow card means they have tried to deliver and will try again tomorrow. No further action needed.
    A red card means they have tried again without success so it is back at your local sorting office. If their address is not printed on the card or you don't know where it is you can look it up from your postcode at https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/146
    If you collect from the sorting office remember to take some ID such as driving licence.

    Not all items have a reference number, so you do not need one.

    I am a postie, at times when stocks are low there are some generic cards that don't have the address on them but it should have been written on.  The card should have P739 printed on it, that is the internal form number.

    Are you 100% sure that it's from Royal Mail ?
    I can;t recall the exact details now, but in the past we have had cards throguh the door that (obviously deliberately) looked very similar to the RM non-delivery cards but were actually some form of advertising.....

    Or some that give you a number to call to re-arrange delivery, but the call ends up costing about £50.

    Yes, the delivery office will have it stored under your address. You'll need to bring ID.
