🚚 My parcel never arrived — who do I complain to?

Direct answer

The seller is responsible until the parcel is in your hands — not the courier, whatever the tracking says. Write to the seller: a new delivery or a refund. If the seller refuses, Tržni inšpektorat RS (01 280 87 00) advises on your consumer rights in Slovenia; for a seller in another EU country, Evropski potrošniški center Slovenija (epc.si). Complaints about the courier itself (lost, damaged, thrown in the garden) go to AKOS — poštne storitve, the postal regulator, after the courier's own complaint procedure.

❓ Frequently asked

The tracking says "delivered"

That is not proof you received it. The seller must show delivery to you or a person you authorised. Ask for the delivery photo and signature.

I sent a parcel and it got lost

Then you are the customer of the courier: file a claim with them within their deadline (often 7–30 days); compensation depends on the service and declared value.

The seller is a private person

Consumer rules do not apply. If you paid through the platform, use its buyer protection; otherwise it is a civil claim — and possibly a scam, see the scam page.
