If Amazon loses your parcel, the first step is to check your delivery status and confirm the shipping details were correct. If the package is marked as delivered but hasn't arrived, wait 48 hours, as packages can sometimes be marked as delivered prematurely. If your package still isn't found, go to your Amazon account: select "Your Orders", find the order and choose "Problem with order". Then, click on "Package didn’t arrive" and follow the on-screen instructions to either find a resolution or contact customer service for further assistance.
