Hi, I placed an order five days ago and the tracking hasn't updated for the last two days. Can you check what's happening with my order?

Hi Emily! I'd be happy to check that for you. I understand how frustrating it can be when a tracking status doesn't update.

Thank you! I've checked the order details. Your order has already been shipped and is currently in transit.

The tracking information hasn't refreshed yet, but this does not necessarily mean the package has stopped moving. Tracking updates can sometimes take time to appear after a carrier scan.

Emily Carter

Okay, but when should I expect it?

2:21 PM

Jesselle • Support

Based on the current shipping status, the estimated delivery is within the next 1–2 business days.

Emily Carter

Got it. Is there anything I need to do?

2:22 PM

Jesselle • Support

No action is needed from you at this time. I'd recommend checking the tracking page again later today for the next carrier update.

If there is still no movement after the estimated delivery window, please contact us again and we'll be happy to assist with the next steps.

You're very welcome, Emily! I'm glad I could clarify the status for you.

Thank you for contacting support, and I hope your order arrives soon. Have a great day!
