    I am a personal seller ** ***** and used Sendle to ship * ******* **** ******** ******* to a buyer in the U.S. for $140 USD. As I typically do with single t-shirt orders, I shipped the item in a black or white poly mailer. The package was scanned, routed, and marked as delivered by Sendle.

    However, the buyer reached out immediately upon delivery and provided photographic evidence that he received a box filled with Lego pieces, not the shirt I shipped. The box had a Sendle label attached to it, which matched my tracking number, indicating that Sendle ****** *********** mishandled ** ******* ******** **** the shipment during transit.

    This is not a lost package scenario — the tracking shows the item as delivered, but what was delivered was not what I sent. The evidence clearly shows that the parcel was either repackaged or swapped entirely, ********* ** ******* ********** ** ********* ******** ********** ****** ********.

    Despite providing full evidence, Sendle refuses to offer more than their standard $100 CAD lost parcel coverage, which is insufficient and not applicable here. The package was not “lost” — ** *** ******** ****. Sendle owes both the customer and me a duty of care to ensure parcels are safely and accurately delivered. ** **** *********** ******** ** *** ***** ** ** ********* ****** ****** ** **** *********** ******* ******* ** ******** *********** * ** *** *** ************* **** **** ***** ********* * **** *** **** ***** * *** *** ****** ******* *** **** ***** *** ******** ***** ******* * ****** * ** *** ***** ******* *** * *** ********** ***** ** *** ******* ******** ******** *** ***** ******* ** ********* *** ************ ******* *** I have been left with no support, compensation, or recourse. ******** ******** *** ***** ** ************** *** *** ***** ** ******* *** *** **** **** ******.

    I am requesting full reimbursement for this loss *** ** *** ***** ********** *** ******* ** ******** ********* *** ******* ******** * ******* ***** *** ****

    In relation to the specific complaint you wrote to us about, we have reviewed our records over the last couple of days. Our records indicate that we settled the claim directly with the complainant on May 7, 2025, which we note pre-dates your Final Notice of Complaint referenced above.
     
    By way of additional information:
     
    The complainant booked a package with us on Apr 8, 2025
    Through the process of booking a package with us, each customer accepts our terms and conditions – ***** *** ** ***** **** ***************************************************************************
    The incorrect item was ultimately delivered to the complainant’s customer on Apr 23, 2005
    The complainant also raised a complaint with BBB on Apr 23, 2025
    The delivery fees were reimbursed on Apr 23, 2005
    The complainant submitted a claim to Sendle under the terms and conditions of our services on May 1, 2005
    The claim was approved on May 2, 2025
    The claim was updated as settled on May 7, 2025
    The claim amount was remitted to the complainant on May 15, 2025
     
    We make the following observations in relation to the complaint:
     
    Under clause 12.3 of our terms, our liability is limited to the cost of replacing the item up to $100 as well as the cost of delivery
    Furthermore, under clause 12.5 the terms, our liability excludes loss of profits as well as indirect, economic or consequential loss
    $140 USD is the sale price of the item, which includes profit – it is not reflective of the replacement cost to the seller
    The $15 USD ****** dispute fee and the $7 USD are indirect costs that are excluded under our terms
     
    Notwithstanding, according to the terms and conditions of our service to the complainant, our records indicate that we approved the customer claim for $100 CAD (on May 7, 2025) and refunded the cost of delivery (on Apr 23, 2025). On this basis, we have recorded the claim as settled.
     
    Could you kindly confirm with the complainant that the matter is closed?
