Royal Mail Tracking: How to Track a Royal Mail Item

Royal Mail Tracking: Step by Step

Speaking of parcel tracking, no matter carried by Royal Mail or other couriers, there are lots of ways to do that, including tracking services provided by the couriers and using other tracking tools with additional functions. Anyway, first of all, you have to get a tracking number which may be also called a barcode or a reference.

# 1 How to get a tracking (reference) number?

If you are the sender:

This will be 9-27 characters long and will be on your Post Office® receipt and the label showing the service used.

If you’re using a Customer Collection, your despatch book or manifest should list the reference numbers of items collected.

 

If you are the recipient:

It will be given to you by the sender or seller.

 

#2 Tracking Steps (on Royal Mail official website):

1. Type in your reference number on the page of tack-your-item (Royal Mail)

 

Royal Mail Tracking on the official website

#3 FAQ & Answers

2. You may have to complete a quick CAPTCHA test. This is a security measure and makes sure you're human and not a bot.

3. Pick the boxes containing the images you’re asked to identify and hit 'Verify'.

4. You can now see tracking information for your item.

 Why isn’t my reference number recognised by Tracking your item? 

There could be a number of reasons for this. Please check:

（1）The number entered is correct.

（2）If you're the recipient, check the sender has given you the right reference number.

（3）The reference number is for an item sent with Royal Mail, using a service that offers tracking.

（4）If the item has been sent. The sender might have created a tracking number, but not yet submitted the item into our network. Please try again later.

 

What can I do if I’ve lost my reference number?

If you are the recipient:

Contact the sender and ask them to give you the number.

If you are the Sender:

Check your order confirmation or invoice. It might contain your reference number. Or try contacting the recipient. They’ll be able to tell you if they’ve received the item. Unfortunately, if you sent your item at a Post Office® and you’ve lost the receipt or the tear-off section from the label, they won’t be able to tell you the reference number or use any other information like a name or address to track items. Without a reference number, you won’t be able to track your item. 

 

What does the Royal Mail tracking message mean?

When you are tracking your item, it gets scanned at various points in its journey.

You’ll see this information when you use Track your item.

Please note:

• The status in Track your item will be the most up-to-date information we have.
• The number of times your item is scanned depends on the service used.
• For some services – including Signed for® 1st Class and Signed for® 2nd Class –  items can be scanned twice: when the Post Office receive and deliver them. This could mean the status of your item doesn’t change for a few days. Don’t worry though, it’s on its way.

 

Most tracking information is easily understandable, but some of them can be confusing. Here are some of the most common terms and what they mean ( quoted from Post Office® ).

• We’re expecting it - The sender has let us know this item will be with us soon, but we haven’t received it yet. We’ll update the tracking information when we receive it.
• We’ve got it - Your item is in our network. We’ll update the information as it moves through our network. If the service used only offers delivery confirmation, we’ll update the status when it’s been delivered.
• Your item was posted at the Royal Mail Customer Service Point - Your item was dropped off at one of our Customer Service Points, the message will include the location, date and time. We’ll update the information as it moves through our network. If the service used only offers delivery confirmation, we’ll update the status when it’s been delivered.
• Internal exception occurred - We’re experiencing system issues. Please try again later.
• In transit - Your item is on its way through our network. This message can cover several stages of its journey. You’ll see more details of its location and status when you enter your reference number.
• Pending - This can cover several possible situations in your item's journey, including if we haven't received the item yet. You’ll see more details specific to your item when you enter your reference number.
• Ready for delivery - Your item has reached the local delivery office. We’ll try to deliver it as soon as possible, unless there’s a service like Keepsafe or Redirection set up. We’ll update the status when we deliver or attempt to deliver the item.
• Your item was delivered - We've either delivered it to the address on the item - this could be your home address, work/business address, or the address you've arranged to collect it from - or we've left your item with a neighbour.
• If we leave your item with a neighbour - the message will tell you which neighbour, we'll also leave you a card confirming the details.
  • If your item is being delivered to a work address or business, there may be some instances when we can't deliver as addressed. If you haven't had the item or a 'Something for you' card, please check with your colleagues or the post room to see if someone has accepted the item on your behalf.
• Your item was delivered to your requested Safeplace - We've left your item in your designated Safeplace, we'll also leave you a card confirming the details. Find out more about Safeplace.
• Proof of delivery is not available - This could mean:
• • The item was sent using a service that does not provide a copy of the signature.
  • The signature might have been taken on a confirmation of delivery card. We aim to get these signatures online within 72 hours of delivery, but you’ll usually see it much sooner.
  • Find out more about signatures.
• Retention Item - Some business addresses have a Retention Service to cover days when they’re not open. We won’t deliver to them on these days. Instead, we’ll hold on to the item and deliver on the next working day, or according to the business’ instructions.
• We could not retrieve your details - We’re experiencing system issues. Please try again later.
• Collected - The recipient has picked up the item.

 

You may also notice some unfamiliar abbreviations in our tracking messages. These are the most common:

• DO - Delivery Office
• EO - Enquiry Office
• MC - Mailing Centre
• NRC - National Returns Centre
• OE - Office of Exchange. On international deliveries this means the item has arrived at the import customs office.
• POL - Post Office Limited
• PSC - Postal Sort Centre
• RDC - Regional Distribution Centre

 

Which services can be used to track your item with?  

• Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed®
• Securely delivered, on time - your item in safe hands

• International Tracked & Signed*
• International Tracking and Signature services

When you want to send something overseas quickly and need some extra peace of mind, International Tracking and Signature services could be the answer.

 

 Any Other Simpler or More Effective Alternatives?

Comparing to the tracking services official site offered, using third-party tools may be much more convenient for you to track your items especially when there are a great number of them carried by different couriers. By entering your tracking (reference) number, you can track the Royal Mail item and know the exact shipment status marked by a smart identifying system. Many third-party parcel tracking tools can do much better and more work than those normal methods mentioned above. Trackingmore is one of the most useful ones which allow you to track one or multiple items carried by different couriers (covering 500+ couriers). It works well for both online shopping individuals and online sellers.

#4. Email marketing and new products

Why:

However, they cannot just keep buying the same stuff, adding new products is also important which attract more newcomers at the same time. Before that, you can do some researches to make sure the new products you choose do have some followers. Then offer a sneak peek before the big day’s coming.

How to Tell the Order Status by Shipment Tracking Information

More than 500 couriers tracking services are available on Trackingmore although many of them only show shipment locations without the order’s status. So how do we classify all these into unified 7 status successfully?

 

Overview of 7 shipment status classified by Trackingmore:

 

▶ Not Found: There is no info for the Order Number.

▶ On transit: Your parcel is on its way.

▶ Arrived and To be delivered: Your parcel is being delivered.

▶ Failed delivery: Your parcel is delivered unsuccessfully.

▶ Collected successfully: Your parcel is collected successfully.

▶ Possible exception: Your parcel is possible returned or lost.

▶ Expired: Your parcel has been shipped for too long time and still has not been delivered.

 

 

Priorities of Shipment status

Possible Exception > Delivered Successfully > Failed Delivery > Arrived and to be Delivered > on Transit

 

Although we’ve set up a keyword bank, there’s still a possibility that we could meet two keywords at the same time, i.e. both “Arrived and to be Delivered” and “Delivered Successfully”. If so, the shipment status is still seen as “Delivered Successfully” according to the Priorities of Shipment status above.

 

 

 

As both“Node state” and “final state” are involved in the shipment status, a “node state” will come up by identified from the keyword bank while the “final state” is decided based on Priorities of Shipment status.

 

Exceptions:

 

1. How to differ returned orders from normal ones?

• Returned order normally occurs with “customer refused”, “returned to shipper” or the like while there may be the words like “delivered successfully” at the same time. At this condition, in order to differentiate it from normal ones, we’ll mark the order as “possible exception”.

 

• If there are no words like “ returned to shipper”, but the parcel actually has been returned, we can tell the status by positions ( e.g. If a parcel is shipped from “Shandong Liaocheng Delivery Department” and collected at the same place, then there is a chance that it could be returned).

 

• As for international shipment, if the order is from China to the U.S. and collected in China or with the words like “import sealed” or “import opened” when transiting in China, it’s definitely returned.

 

2. Status identification affected by misleading keywords  

For instance, “delivered” stands for “the parcel has been collected” while “Will be delivered in 3 days” suggests an uncollected status. “Returned to the shipper” means the parcel is returned while “Will be returned to the shipper if nobody collects” refers to “arrived and to be collected” instead of returning to the shipper.

 

3. Identification keywords in Multi-languages

Since various languages may appear in international delivery, it’s very important to perfect multi languages keywords bank for correct status identification.

 

For example, “collecting “ in Chinese, English, German, Japanese and Russian are respectively“妥投”、“ delivered”、“zugestellt”、“お届け済み”、“ENTREGADO”、“Отправление доставлено”.

 

4. Differences among couriers

As there is not a series of unified words for all those couriers, the same word may have different meanings. So correction for a single courier may be needed.

 

E.g. The word “ delivered” may suggest that an order is just ready for the delivery in one courier’s information while the same word may mean “the parcel has been collected” by the addressee.

 

Conclusion:

 

First of all, good status auto-identification is based on enough data volume and continuously perfecting keyword bank.

Second, we should consider that in which part of the work people can be replaced by machines? Why can an experienced delivery man tell the status after just one glance of the order and how does he make it? Could this be replaced by a machine?

We provide one of the best status auto identification services after a three-year experience. Contact us if you have any problem about our tracking tool.
