    Giving each parcel its separate number helps to identify it in the best way possible.

    You enter the Track and Trace section, introduce the special combination you have, and have the information displayed to you. This is what an electronic post-global system helps customers do.

    Track and Trace System in Great Britain

    All packages and shipments in the UK are usually monitored within the system.

    Parcelforce uses specific post technologies to give the customers access to the data that is associated with the packages and shipments that customers have unique tracking codes for.

    This industry-specific and user-friendly information technology for our post and freight-tracking systems. That is why the parcels that Parcelforce tracks are easy to monitor anywhere in the world.

    Parcelforce is a great logistics partner for any tracking website because it is:

    -A part of a reliable online global tracking system that is available 24/7.

    -Has integrated electronic invoices and statements

    -Offers access to comprehensive reports as required by tracking websites to offer customers appropriate information.

    Parcelforce track and trace system is available for you to access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and Alltracking generously provides the accumulated data from the Parcelforce database for your convenience.

    This allows you to monitor the progress of any time of order to delivery end.

    Do not hesitate to take advantage of the capabilities the system offers.

    There can be numerous reasons for the non-trackage of the parcel you need information for.

    But before any panic starts, customers are advised to consider it being stuck in transit. This means that the status of the package has not moved in a long time and there is no news that the tracking website can share.

    After any significant changes take place, the status of the parcel will be updated accordingly. But if you do not see it straight away, do not consider the package lost – it can just be temporarily delayed.

    From time to time this can happen to anyone. Parcelforce is usually very attentive and caring, going the extra mile for the customers to be satisfied but 100% of cases simply cannot always be successful.

    The parcel may be lost on the way to the final destination. These cases are rare but they do exist.

    In case this happens please contact the Parcelforce Customer Service team for further assistance.

    The investigation will need to take place and the company will take the responsibility of offering you a solution.

    Please note that you will be asked to offer information that will help to investigate the case. It usually takes up to 48 hours to get a response from the Customer Service team. 

    The complaints, appraisals, suggestions, and tracking number information requests can all be submitted. But the lost parcel is not the only possible variant here. The parcel can also be stuck in transit, the goods can be stuck at customs, and delayed for any reason at all.

    The Customer Service team will be able to provide you with all the answers you need. Keep an eye on their reply.

    Whether you want to complain or have any suggestions, you are free to contact the Customer Service team at Parcelforce.

    Usually, customers have the following claims that the Customer Service team deals with:

    1) Tracked packages that did not reach the destination

    At Parcelforce, when delivery of an article cannot be completed, the item is either returned to the sender or returned to the Mail Redistribution Centre.

    If you printed the wrong address on the shipping label, didn't include a return address, or poorly packaged the item, Parcelforce cannot be held responsible for it. In most of the other cases, the British delivery company will investigate the case and refund you.

    2) Damaged tracked parcels

    If the item arrives damaged, the first thing you need to do is get in contact with the seller as soon as possible. ( this is for those who purchased an item online that was later on sent with Parcelforce).

    The seller will discuss the issue with the respective post company. In this case, the seller is responsible for the condition of the items when you receive them.

    If the item is damaged you can enclose pictures, and put it all in writing, ideally in an email that you need to send to the seller. The seller then will investigate what happened with Parcelforce and either refund you or give you a substitute product.

    3) Confiscated tracked items

    British companies engaged in delivery may still have packages delayed for reasons beyond their control even if they are super professional in what they do.

    If a package contains a prohibited item when entering the UK or another country (if the package originates from Great Britain and goes abroad), then it will most likely be confiscated at customs by officials). British customs are very strict and attentive to details.

    The History of Parcelforce

    The Parcel Post service of Royal Mail was started in 1883, though parcel services operated by the railway companies, later Red Star Parcels and British Road Services, were also heavily used for many decades. Royal Mail was separated into three divisions in 1986 and in August 1990, Royal Mail Parcels was rebranded as Parcelforce.

    In July 1992, the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, Michael Heseltine, proposed the privatization of the Parcelforce business.

    He insisted that the company provided most of its services to businesses rather than individuals and that the competitive market it operated in meant there was no need for it to remain a publicly owned company.

    In January 2007, Parcelforce Worldwide became the first express carrier in the United Kingdom to give its customers the option to offset the carbon emissions associated with the delivery of their parcels.

    To date, the company is one of the most successful service platforms of all time in Great Britain.
