We use Amazon a lot here, and for the most part it works beautifully. But on very rare occasion, an Amazon order will be marked as having been delivered even though the order has never been received by the person who ordered it. Here’s what to do if your order from Amazon hasn’t shown up even though Amazon has it marked as delivered. First, it’s important to understand that Amazon uses UPS (United Parcel Service), USPS (the United States Post Office), and now, even Amazon’s own delivery service, to deliver Amazon orders. And each of these services provides Amazon with the tracking information for your packages. So when Amazon says that an order was delivered, they are relying on what the USPS, UPS and their own Amazon delivery drivers tell them. (If instead you did receive the package, but it was damaged, read our article How to Report Damaged or Bad Packaging to Amazon). In a case like this, where your package has been marked as ‘delivered’, it’s not really useful to track the package, because, of course, the tracking says that the package was delivered.

What to Do When Your Amazon Order Shows as Delivered but is Actually MissingUPDATE AS OF NOVEMBER 2019! All of the below information about the Amazon “Find a Missing Package” page no longer applies, since Amazon modified the page and you can no longer contact them through the page. As of November 2019 here is what you have to do if your order shows as delivered but never arrived: Call Amazon at 888-280-4331 You will be asked to let Amazon verify your account by having Amazon text the number they have associated with your account (while you are on the phone) and once you have verified it, the automated system will guide you through some options, one of which is “about an order”, followed by “are you calling about an item?” Answer ‘yes’ to this, and then the system asks you about the item, and gives you the option to say that it never arrived. At this point the system will offer you a refund or a replacement. You can also try using the Amazon Customer Service Chatbot if you prefer not to use the phone, although we have not tested it recently. OLD INFORMATION THAT IS NO LONGER APPLICABLE BUT LEFT HERE FOR ARCHIVAL REASONS On the Amazon help page titled Find a Missing Package That Shows as Delivered, Amazon explains that, essentially, you need to wait 36 hours past the ‘shown as delivered’ time before you can escalate it to Amazon. During that 36 hours you should:
Of course, we assume if you are looking for help figuring out what happened to your package that you have already taken these steps, other than perhaps waiting the 36 hours, because they are pretty obvious. So, assuming that you have already done all of the above, and it’s been at least thirty-six hours since your package was marked as ‘delivered’, your next step is to go the Amazon Contact Us Help page, where you will be able to actually tell Amazon that your order is missing. Once on that page, you will be offered the option of getting help with an order you have placed, and you will be able to select from any of your recent orders. After you have selected the missing order go to section 2, which contains a dropdown menu which allows you to select your issue. Click on ‘Where’s my stuff?’. This will give you a submenu; select ‘Tracking shows delivered but shipment not received’. Once you have selected ‘Tracking shows delivered but shipment not received’, a third section will display, asking you how you would like to be contacted. We always choose email, because it gives us a written record, and hey, we don’t like being on hold on the telephone. This will cause a recap of your issue to be displayed, so that you can verify it. This includes an area where you can include a message to the Amazon customer service team. There is a pre-written message which you can select that says “Please provide latest status on when my Order (sic) will arrive” (we have no idea why they capitalized ‘Order’), and a note clearly meant to encourage you to not instead write your own message: “Customers choosing this option usually receive a quicker response.”. But you can also choose to write your own message, which will still get a response, “usually within 12 hours”. If you choose to write your own message, Amazon will tell you to please be sure to include whether “you would like a Replacement, Refund to a gift card, or a Refund to the original Payment method”. After you click ‘Send Email’ you will see this confirmation: Within that 12-24 hours, you should receive a response like this:
If your order still doesn’t show up, you can then click the link that they have provided to you, and get a refund. Here is the link to the page to initiate this process: Go to the Amazon Contact Us page to report a missing package. In the most recent case we encountered, it turned out that the USPS had delivered the package to the wrong address. A couple of days later, someone from that wrong address brought the package over. We have to say that Amazon’s use of the post office has caused pretty much all of the delivery problems we’ve encountered. Generally, we have found that the USPS service is far inferior to that of UPS when it comes to delivery errors and issues. The Internet Patrol is completely free, and reader-supported.
