5. Dispatch and Tracking

If tracking has not updated, the parcel appears delayed, or the status shows delivered but you have not received it, contact us with your order and tracking numbers.
6. Delivery Address Responsibility
Customers must provide a complete and accurate delivery address, recipient name and contact number. Once dispatched, an address change may not be possible and redirection or re-delivery charges may apply.

UPENDS is not responsible for delays caused by courier operations, severe weather, strikes, public holidays, incorrect addresses, security restrictions or other events outside our reasonable control.
Where a parcel is returned because the address was incorrect, the recipient was unavailable, or delivery was refused, the customer may be required to pay the cost of re-delivery.
