CharlieH Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Unlikely Customs would be interested in it. If it was just standard mail (and you dont state where you are) can take anything up to a 28 days, luck of the draw in many cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhream Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I hate to be the bearer of dread, but I think you can kiss it goodbye. I actually logged in a second ago to vent about the SECOND renewal of a credit card that's gone missing. 2014 RBS renewal debit card went missing (to add insult to injury, this was renewed early due to a scammer, probably an Alibaba employee, somehow scraping account info on Ali Baba, and then buying something on Aliexpress in China!) Feb 2016 Birthday card never arrived, suspect some thief at some post office though there'd be money in it, haha my ladyfriend is not as dumb as them, but it's a bloody pain in the arse! Last month, standard renewal of credit card from my Aussie Bank failed to make it after being repackaged and forwarder REGISTERED, but not tracked. To make matters worse, my mate is now all offended, because I simply asked him to buy tracking in future (at my expense) he has now huffily decided he does not want to help me forward my mail anymore, all because some choice turd at the post office, is ratting the mail. This is a serious situation down the line because I now no longer have a 'home' address in Australia which backward thinking organisations, like banks and governments, need, or they will 'fire' me. All because some <deleted> jobsworth in some PO somewhere is a mail thief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieH Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 As stated previously you dont give an indication as to where you are. In some rural areas, the postman wont bother going to some villages with just one item, he/they will hold the mail until there is more for that location and then go deliver it.

CharlieH Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Well, usually you wont get the "delays" that rural locations suffer in somewhere as populated and mainstream as Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard_smith237 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Recently I had two parcels sent from the UK - A Day Apart (normal mail) - Both the same size. One arrived after 10 days. The other arrived after about 4 weeks. No rhyme or reason to the postal inconsistencies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmaxdan Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I'm waiting for a parcel to arrive at the moment from the UK. It does have a tracking number, and it was released from customs yesterday (8th) having sat there for five days. The delivery date was estimated as the 8th, but now will probably be after Songkran has finished. But such is life. So I wait another week, I'll survive.
