Hello some help needed

Post by roachieuk »

Hi,

Well thought i would join this forum as im a lil confused and this will be good for future reference.

Well i was told a parcel was sent out to me today by special delivery and i thought special deliver started with ZW?

The parcel he sent and gave tracking number for is this:AI*********GB is this special delivery or just recorded?


Many thanks in advance.

AI - IIRC is also a Special check digit so it sounds to me as though it has been sent out that way.

When you do a track and trace on it and it constantly changes between now and delivery that will also confirm its a Special Delivery as well. Recordeds are not scanned throughout the whole process, but specials are.
