When a parcel goes missing, the retailer — not the courier — is legally responsible for ensuring your order arrives. Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, the risk of loss or damage to goods remains with the seller until they are delivered to you. If your delivery never arrived, you are entitled to a full refund or replacement.

Many retailers try to pass the blame to the courier and ask you to raise a claim directly with them. This is not your legal obligation. Your contract is with the retailer, and they are responsible for resolving the issue. A formal complaint letter makes this clear and puts the retailer on notice.

PostRight generates a professionally worded missing delivery complaint letter citing the correct legislation, demanding a refund or replacement within a specified timeframe. Your letter is printed and posted via Royal Mail First Class.
