SAPO: Tracking international parcels

I almost thought I was being scammed by somebody at the post office, got a "final notice" sms for collection of some parcel. Never received a first notice, and I have no idea what it's for :laugh:

I emailed them back to get more info.
my sms' like these are scams. Been getting a few these past few weeks - but the link in the sms is to a scam site. "Order can't be completed due to wrong address". So just check whether it's legit :)

My message has no link, just an email and ref number.
 
SAPO just lost a 1800 GBP order of mine.
The company I purchased from has one "Fedex" shipping option that gets the order to SA within a day or two and then they dump it with SAPO and all tracking stops. Someone at the post office must be enjoying their new bicycle.

In the end I got another one DHL'd to me free of charge but still nevertheless annoying.
 
Then perhaps you're the lucky receiver ofa legitimate post, something like a large marketing booklet or SAPS ticket :p
Hope so, there is a t-shirt that was sent last year sometime that never showed up, that might be it.
 
What is the requirement to collect a parcel on behalf of someone else?
 
usually the slip for collection
Do people actually ever get those slips?
I have been ordering a lot from overseas and don't think I ever gotten a slip....

Anyways.I am going to try collect an item with the sms notification and a copy of the ID, lets see

Just write a letter that you sending someone else to collect on your behalf and off course your ID and the person who collect's ID, I do it all the time.
 
The post office tracking has gone down! I wonder if it will ever be fixed.
