Failed delivery attempt. Why it happens and what to do?

A failed delivery attempt means that the courier driver tried to deliver a parcel to a customer, but the delivery was not successful. In most cases, you will find a note left by the driver notifying you about the failed delivery. An attempted delivery will also be visible in the online tracking system of your logistics service provider. There are three most common reasons for an unsuccessful delivery attempt:

• The receiver was absent, meaning there was no one at the address to receive the parcel.
• The delivery address was incorrect/incomplete. This does not necessarily mean that you wrote down the wrong address. It can be that the instructions were unclear or that some details were missing.
• The courier could not access the delivery location.

In this case, we don't accept any return or refund.
