Important:
Orders are dispatched by any one of a selection of carriers, regardless of whether you choose First Class or One-Day delivery.
Although a signature isn't required for most Release Day Delivery items, some deliveries will require a signature and we can't guarantee that our carrier will leave a package at the delivery address if no one is available to accept it. If the package isn't left on your doorstep on the release date, the carrier should leave a note explaining your options for re-delivery or picking up the package at your local Post Office.
Some carriers make deliveries to residential addresses as late as 9pm, so please allow sufficient time for the delivery.
Back to topRelease days sometimes change. If you've placed a pre-order for an item for Release Day Delivery and the release day changes, we'll notify you of this change by e-mail. Release Day Delivery will still apply to your pre-order.
Important: payment for your pre-order is taken when your item is shipped to you. If you choose to pay by credit or debit card, please ensure that the expiry date of your card is after the new release day.
Back to topOrders that are fulfilled by Amazon.co.uk and dispatched via a trackable method will have tracking information available in Your Account.
If tracking information is available and indicates the parcel has been delivered, please check with your neighbours or family members. Parcels are occasionally left with neighbours, or a building manager, or are placed somewhere relatively safe, such as your porch or garage.
If the tracking information indicates that your parcel is being returned to us, or if the address is incorrect, it may have been undeliverable.
Please note that some carriers make deliveries to residential addresses as late as 9pm, so please allow sufficient time for the delivery.
