Unsuccessful delivery occurs when the Shipping Unit is unable to deliver the parcel to the Customer. This may be due to various reasons, such as the Customer refusing to receive the parcel, the Customer’s address being incorrect, or multiple failed delivery attempts, etc.
I. An Order Is Considered Unsuccessfully Delivered When
· For standard delivery method: The Shipping Unit has attempted to deliver items to the Customer at the delivery address at least 01 (one) time per day, and maximum 03 (three) times but has not been able to contact the Customer through the phone number that Customer registered in the Order according to the correct process and thereafter, the Customer did not respond the delivery notification from the Marketplace within 48 (forty-eight) hours from the time the Shipping Unit failed to contact the Customer.
· For express delivery method: The Shipping Unit has made up to 03 (three) attempts (with the first call being no more than 10 minutes after the last call) to deliver the parcel to the Customer. The Customer could not be reached via the phone number registered in the Order.
In these cases, AEONMALL will automatically cancel the Order and refund the Customer. The Shipping Unit will return the unsuccessful delivery parcel to the Seller.
II. Instructions for Seller to Receive Unsuccessfully Delivered Orders
Upon receiving the returned parcel, Seller can co-check the items in the parcel with the shipper and decide the next steps based on the condition of the parcel:

The Seller selects "Received" in the "Order Details".
2. For parcels with damaged, lost items, or parcels not actually received by the Seller:
