We have been aware of issues sending regarding sending tracked items to HMRC for some time and have covered this is past blog articles. We are still seeing the majority of items sent to HMRC with tracked services not showing any tracking updates and simply stating that they are “in transit” on the Royal Mail tracking. Previously we had advised our customers to use Special Delivery to send items but we are now finding that this service also fails to return any confirmation of delivery to HMRC addresses.
It is currently not possible to track items on the Royal Mail website due to an issue with their website. The website currently displays the following message £Sorry, there was a problem, please try again”. Unfortunately we do not have access to any further information other than that from Royal Mail so cannot provide any tracking updates until Royal Mail resolves the issue.
