- My tracking status is not updating. If you've just received the delivery notification, give it up to 24 hours before it shows an active status.

- My estimated delivery timeframe has passed and I still have nothing. Give it an extra 2β3 working days β most of the time it just turns up. If it's beyond that, submit an enquiry with Australia Post at helpandsupport.auspost.com.au/s/missing-or-lost-item or call the courier. Otherwise, contact us and we'll follow up for you.
