Royal Mail have kindly lost another parcel. This time belonging to me.
Unfortunately for me I have no idea what it could be. I just have a "Heyyy we missed you" card. The parcel was recorded delivery and they don't even reckognise the serial number on the card.
So now I have to put a claim in. But I don't have any idea what it could be?
What do I do now?

Re: Claiming with Royal Fail?
That's a bit odd, are you sure you're not expecting anything?
How can you put a claim in without knowing what's in the package?

I ordered a book from amazon which has yet to have been dispatched.
I had the control module for my car which was delivered saturday.
I also ordered brakes for my car friday night, but I got the "missed you" letter friday morning.
Really confused.

Re: Claiming with Royal Fail?
Normally the arrangement with the postman is he leaves any parcels in the coal bunker round the back of the house, but one day a subbie must have been working and a card come throught the letter box, but nothing had been ordered. I went to the post office and it was a 3/8 ratchet and 10 sockets, new and in the box,
It was definatley not ordered i had been at uni and hadnt bought anything off ebay or elsewhere in 2 months, there was no sender address or clues as to who sent it

Re: Claiming with Royal Fail?
Just phoned them up after nobody got back to me. Couldn't find any options to speak to anyone and had to leave my details with a computer for them to send me a claim form.
