Parcelforce

Is it possible to tell, from a Parcelforce tracking number, which service has been used (next day, next day AM, or 2 days)?

[Vagrant]

Yes.
The header says something like Service: Express 24

[koster]

I mean that the company that has sent me the parcel has given me the tracking number. It was sent today, and I would like to know if it will arrive tomorrow.

[ChuckFickens]

have you tried tracking the tracking number?

ring Parcelforce give them the tracking number, and they will tell you when to expect it.
Not sure that you could track it yourself on your computer.

[Vagrant]

No need to ring - stick your number in the place suggested by Mr. Fickens

[koster]

Yes, I've tracked the number on their website, but that doesn't tell me the service or when it will arrive.

I used to work for a delivery company, ring your local depot, you dont even need a tracking no. just give your name and adress and ask if they have anything for you

[Vagrant]

I'm surprised - I use this all the time - it always identifies service type for me.
Have you pressed the button labelled "Tracking Details"?

What message do you get when you put it in?

I bought a new vacuum cleaner last week - this is my Parcelforce tracking info:

Parcel number: *******
Consignment number: **********
Senders reference: **********************
Shipping date: 29.09.2010
Service: Express 24
Number of parcels: 1
Delivery date: 30.09.2010 12:47
Status: Delivered
30.09.2010 05:26 Cleveland Depot Arrived at delivery depot
30.09.2010 05:21 Cleveland Depot Out for delivery
30.09.2010 00:45 AUTOSCAN AT COVENTRY Sorted in hub

29.09.2010 14:19 Oxford Depot Arrived at delivery depot
29.09.2010 14:19 Oxford Depot Collected from customer

I always get similar info - I wonder why you don't - maybe it depends on area - maybe, if it doesn't specify, it's their slowest service.

[AlBags]

I really don't think you can tell V.
Maybe one or two services are listed, that's it maybe.
