USPS Track & Confirm

I'm waiting on a package from the USA - according to the track and confirm it was delivered yesterday but I was home all day and nothing came, there was also no "come and collect from the post office" cards. I haven't had this problem before - normally when it says it's been delivered, the item has been delivered. What's the deal? Should I call up my local post office and see if they've got it?

Hi llamatron,

I've just got my US parcel too.
What's your status like? It should say at Foreign Delivery Unit then it will be in the process of being delivered. I just got my parcel about 30mins ago...so probably be patient. It might come tomorrow?

I had this happen to me (but it was with a different service, i forget which) .. i called up my local and they hadn't heard of the package.. then an hour later it showed up at the door. Can't hurt to try your local though!

Every time I've gotten a parcel from the USA when it says it was "delivered abroad" it literally did show up at my house then. But not this time.

Had the same experience last year. The guy from eBay used USPS with tracking. I kept checking Australia Post's tracking everyday and one day it said "delivered" even though I was home that entire day and didn't hear any knock on my door. I called Australia Post and it was useless. The guy was robotic and kinda rude and kept saying according to the system it's been delivered to me, even though I told him how could it have been delivered when I didn't receive it. I made a formal complaint via their email system. I then made another phone call and talked to another guy, this second guy still had no clue but was more helpful and actually got someone else to call me back. Apparently Australia Post used a contractor for my parcel, and they could not record something like "in contractor's hand" in their status so they simply used "delivered" when they passed something to the contractors. The parcel arrived the next day. And they replied my email complaint after about 2 weeks.

Hmm, this could be it. I'll have to see if it's there when I get home today.
