Who is responsible if my parcel is lost: the retailer or courier?

The retailer is legally responsible under the Consumer Rights Act. Your contract is with the seller, not the delivery company. Always complain to the retailer first.

What if my parcel was left in an unsafe place?

If the courier left your parcel without your consent and it was stolen, the retailer must refund or replace it. 'Safe place' instructions only apply if you explicitly authorised them.

How long should I wait before reporting a lost parcel?

If the estimated delivery date has passed, contact the retailer immediately. Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, goods must be delivered within 30 days unless agreed otherwise.
