Parcel Not received

Hi

Does anyone know why "parcel not recevied " rate is so higher here?

We post free of charge 2nd class royalMail for all customers not only Amazon Marketplace

but the issue about the parcel probably is 10 times more than anywhere?

Any suggestion or good solution to share please?

basically amazon actively encourages people to make a claim to get their money back even if they have received it.

Scammers, I buy postage thru Amazon, 2nd class Royal Mail small parcel... so they have a deliv confirmation scan...but Amazon doesnt add that to order details as a tracking number so customer thinks there is no tracking. I actually note all the deliv confirmation numbers down so if the buyer does try a scam thinking it was untracked I can actually check. I get them constantly especially around Xmas, in fact 99% of messages are scammers saying not delivered when i can see it WAS. I reply with the delivery details and number.. most scammers dont respond and just go away. One or two respond to make up some wild tale that they somehow forgot theyd received it already. ONE was genuine and had been left in a safe place and no card left, but they foundit from my description of the delivery photo. Thankfully only one went on to open a fake AZ claim and although Amazon refunded they accepted item WAS delivered and did not count it on my ODR (although i had to email the MD to get them to reverse SS decision). I try to make my responses to suspected scammers sound as generic and AI produced as possible just including trcking number, carrier, deliv date and deliv address. I found being chatty just encourages scammers to spin a yarn and try and carry the scam on... had one lady, received order, claimed she hadnt and demanded replacement. I got bored of her and eventually refunded just to make her go away and although she had the original order AND a full refund.. she went berserk screaming I hadnt sent the replacement too LOL

A message from an honest customer today. Just shows that Amazon tell customers items are lost which then leads to a refund claim.

This was sent via untracked letter post so Amazon can not make a decision either way if it is lost or delivered.

Message from customer :

Amazon are saying that this package has been lost, but I have received it. I don't know how to inform them that I have it,

I am more than happy with my purchase.

Ideally, sending the parcel Royal Mail Tracked means that you will have the delivery label and the tracking number at hand to prove delivery. But it means that your On Time Delivery Metric will drop below 97% quite quickly and you will be punished for it.

The least Amazon could do is to display the delivery confirmation number on the order page when their shipping labels are purchased. It shouldn't be that difficult?

I can't decide which service to use. The quicker, more relaible method, or the safer slower service?

Online Shoplifters, your an easy target.

Switch to Royal Mail 48 tracked and get a signature if they buy two or more products.

Report these losses to Royal Mail and tell your customer.

Increase your prices to cover the extra costs.

15 years on Amazon, leaving after Xmas, its getting to expensive.

Why would it cause your OTDR to drop.

If you are sending tracked 48 they normally arrive in 2-3 days which is within most delivery promises that sellers set.

I also use 2nd class alot via Amazon.

What I find has helped, when I get the 1st email from a customer stating INR, I send an email back stating "on our reports it states delivered"

If customer comes back again I take action, generally they don't funnily enough! If they persue then I tend to believe them more.

Its funny that I have never and I mean never had a NOT ON THE HIGH STREET customer state INR and with Ebay its very rare!

your problem is '2nd class'. no true delivery confirmation.. so amazon emails them advising they may be able to get a refund.. and you can not prove delivery
