I bought a Ducky YOTS and was assuming that if I made it back home in time today, I could receive it; if not, id go to my local post office and collect it. These two days are the only two days I can collect it and then im away for a month again.

Its been sent back to the kilburn delivery office (im guessing DO stands for delivery office).

Has anyone actually gone there and been able to collect a parcel? I plan to get there at about 8 so that I may get there in time for them to not move it to my local post office.
 
Because thats what they normally do so that if I miss a delivery, i can rearrange it or choose to pick it up at my closest PO. Isnt that what happens for everyone else?
 
My mistake. I realised that I named it wrong. It isnt a post office, its next to it and its called a "callers office". You enter and collect the parcel but right next to it, theres a post office.

Thanks for the info though. I go up to the DO its at and hope I can pick it up. Is the DO a large building? Almost warehouse size? On google streets it looks like so.
 
Well i can barely find any info on the DO. Ive seen most state that itll be open from 7 - 12 for saturdays so ill just make sure I Get there early.
THanks for the help guys. I guess ill update this later tomorrow if anyone else stumbles across this thread.
 
Yeah. The card shows opening times but the card is for the closest post office and callers collection.

I have tracking on the parcel and it's showing that it's been sent back to the DO awaiting me to choose my redelivery options. Hopefully I can just turn up and collect it.

I won't be in a different part of the DO and so will be unable to collected it right?
 
Well after a lot of journeys on the tube, I finally have it but it was an absolute pain.

I woke up early to get to the DO that was listed online on the tracking page and was told that it wasnt here, and that it wouldnt be for my address. She said that the tracking site was completely wrong and that I should head to where I normally get my post.

Went back to the post office / callers collection and low and behold, it was there.

TL;DR, dont trust what the RM tracking page says. Either way, im a happy bunny, typing on my YOTS!
 
Well the Kilburn one is where people collect their deliveries and also where the post men collect their post. Its the size of a warehouse. My local point where I collect mail is the size of a semi-detached house as well. But on the calling card, its called a "Callers Collection".

TL;DR, stick to what the card says and not the online tracking.
