Child Item

An Post

Got a "We attempted to deliver your item" from An Post yesterday.
Was working from home waiting for them and just to be sure, I checked my security cameras. Nobody came to the door...

This is a package from Amazon and it was supposed to be delivered yesterday, I assume An Post has a contract with them and it's easy to enter a fake delivery attempt to keep the stats up...

Inquired online, chat wit a nice customer service person trying to get more info, he could not get an answer to his call to the local post office and send an email asking for more details.

Took the time to go to the local Post Office where I was feed BS by the guy saying they only leave a notice after the third attempt to deliver and a
"Come back on Wednesday, if you do not get a notice"

Let's see if try to deliver today.

Mines getting delivered today after being stuck in limbo for 2 weeks, refund was issued from Amazon a few days ago

Got email yesterday -

New additional automated facility opening today. (Fri)

Delays dramatically reduced in the past week with substantial numbers now being delivered within two days.

Backlog from 27th Oct to 4th Nov to be cleared by today.

As for the person saying they should be working Sunday, they've been on a 7 day delivery since mid October and bank holiday too. Parkwest is operating 24/7.

Not Entirely .

Xmas hours are starting next Monday which is over 2 weeks earlier than it has ever started before .

Unfortunately Lockdown caused a spike even earlier than expected

Can anyone who normally gets post from the D12 hub confirm if they are delivering the next day or if there is still a delay?
Usually if it hits there its out for delivery next day

The Crazy Cat Lady

am expecting another parcel, has been sitting in Drogheda in the last few days. Will probably be out for delivery tomorrow, but I won't be home, anyone know if you can change the delivery date?

Mine still hasn’t had any new scan since it left Merseyside on November 1st ! But seeing others get scanned is giving me hope !

imo if its finally got scanned then its shouldn't be long. The problem seems to be the stuff thats sitting there unscanned.

Edit - cancel that I've just notice that one item that was supposed to be delivered today (Thursday) arrived was scanned in Dublin by An Post early in the morning of Tuesday. Still stuck in Dublin.

I wonder are packages with no scans from an post tracking still getting delivered eventually

I don't think many, but some do get through, my son had one. Of the lost ones I've had (3 out of 500 plus from Amazon) none have ever made it through.

Local Postman says he has seen evidence that An Post in Dublin are swamped with Amazon deliveries.

Amazon can get the stuff to An Post quick enough and the local deliveries have spare capacity but An Post sorting is the limiting factor yet again.

I've got 3 items that Amazon have sent out a week ago but aren't in An Posts system yet. I'm expecting some refunds shortly.

Funnily enough the postman was saying he'd be on to Amazon to complain that an item (with and An Post tracking number) was two weeks overdue he got a refund and the items arrived the following day.

Did you get your package yet?
I am also in this situationðŸ˜Ÿ Purchases some jewellery from USA it was sent vis USPS express Priority International got regular daily updates while still in USA and now tracking has stopped last entry was:

Your item departed a transfer airport in DUBLIN, IRELAND on November 8, 2020 at 8:37 am. The item is currently in transit to the destination.
Argh ðŸ˜–!!! What does this even mean?
What’s a transfer airport? Does it mean it’s in Ireland? Not appearing on An Post tracking.
Really worried. Please tell me some of you at least got yours eventually

Hey did you're package move since, im having the same issue

Thanks

JamboTyson

I wonder for items that aren't scanned yet when they eventually are will there be some sort of alert to send them back to amazon. I can't see amazon continuing to pay out refunds if this drags on

Were you subsequently charged again for the items you were refunded for?

I received a refund for a fairly expensive item but it later showed up in Dublin sorting office so I could still receive it.

No, Amazon told me to keep the items ranging from about €12 up to €65. Saying that it might be different for more expensive items!
