I have a delivery to BHX1 that was held with DPD for about 2 weeks. It has now been checked in but not receipted. It was despatched on the 17th October.

We have shipments going into all of the common FC’s every week and nothing is taking more than 48 hours to receive and be available to buy. Most things are clearing within 24 hours. Are you sending large cartons or shipments? Our cartons are no larger than 60 x 60 x 40cm but all contain multiple SKU’s. We have been very impressed with the speed of clearance of FC’s in the last few months.

I had massive problems with delays in shipments this time last year. Luckily this year it all seems to be going ok. Most shipments are with 1-3 days with some small and lights taking around a week. As it was so bad last year i planned ahead and ensured i sent it enough stock to cover it.
I assume it’s due to more stock being sent in my sellers for the Christmas period and has caused delays.
Definitely agree with the other poster - id send some to other centres where possible as it doesn’t seem to be effecting them all.

Mine are being checked in and added to stock really quickly, quicker than the previous few years.

Please take note; we’re very close to Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
They have sent emails and messages countless times that this will cause an increase in the time it takes to process your fulfilment requests, plan ahead in future and recognise factors/

No problems here but I only use Amazon UPS option

It is very hit and miss. I have one that has been sat in BHX4 since 10 Oct and has not been received yet and many others that are in and processed in a couple of days.

I thought they had really upped their game as every shipment was being received within a couple of days this year. Sent one a few weeks ago and it took 2 full weeks to receive.

I’ve had one shipment stuck for nearly 3 months now and another one thats been in FC transfer for just a bit longer than that. It really messes with cashflow!
Heads up, no point in chasing this with Seller Support. They either don’t understand the question or don’t have a sufficient answer. They will tell you they will be in stock in 3-5 days (but can be up to 30 days).
Even when you are approaching 90 days… Same answer.
Just wait. That is the only advice I can give.
