ByeBay Item Not Received? Be Relieved—DoNotPay Can Help You With Your Claim!
If you love online shopping, you must be prepared for certain inconveniences caused by delivery delays or lost packages. Are you facing an “eBay item not received” or “Amazon late delivery” situation?
While this article presents ways to deal with the former problem, DoNotPay provides a smooth and swift option to file a claim and collect a refund.
eBay Item Not Received—Check the Delivery Information
If your eBay item has not arrived, you should check the delivery information in the Purchase history section available in your eBay account. You can see the address and estimated delivery date there.
What To Do if You Supplied the Wrong Address
If you notice in the delivery details that you have provided an incorrect shipping address, you should:
- Get in touch with the seller to check if they can:
- Change the shipping address
- Cancel your order (you could repurchase the item with the correct address)
- Collect your order at the provided incorrect address (if the seller has sent the package, you cannot alter the address)
eBay Package Delivered but Not Received—What Now?
While there is no need to despair if your package has not arrived, you need to take action as soon as possible. Here is what you should do:
- Search for the parcel
- Inform the seller
- Ask eBay for assistance
- to file a claim in three clicks
Look for the Parcel
If the shipping status says that your package has been delivered, you should make sure that it has not been left someplace near you. We suggest you do the following:
- Check the area around your home as couriers might leave a package at your side or back door, garage area, porch, etc.
- Ask your neighbors since a driver could have given them your parcel in case you were not home
Let the Seller Know Your eBay Item Never Arrived
You should inform the online retailer if the estimated delivery date has passed, but you still have not gotten your order. Here is how you can do that:
- Sign in to your eBay account
- Visit the Purchase history page
- Choose More actions next to your item
- Select I didn't receive it
- Tick either the box next to I want a refund or the one beside I want the item
- Enter an optional message for the seller
- Click Send request
Make sure you meet the time frame requirements and notify the seller up to 30 days after the expected delivery date. The online retailer should get back to you with delivery updates and further instructions in three business days.
When Can eBay Step In?
If you do not hear back from the seller after three business days, you can turn to eBay directly and ask them for help. You should file a request with eBay up to 21 days after you reported the issue to the seller.
