How to submit a parcel via Z-BOX?
When you choose to submit via Z-BOX, the application will generate a 6-digit submission password that you simply write on the parcel.If you created a parcel order in the app but have not yet shipped it yet, it will be automatically canceled in 5 days. You can also use the ‘Cancel drop-off’ option directly in the app after clicking on the 3 dots next to your parcel.
The payment for shipping is blocked in your bank account for the parcel validity period (5 days). Once the dop-off password expires, the payment will automatically be returned to your bank account.
If you´ve already drop the parcel off and wish to undo it, contact us via the contact form (select "Shipment Cancelation"). We will process your request. However, in this case, a refund is not possible, as the parcel has already been accepted for transport.The phone number cannot be changed in the app because parcels are tied to one phone number (thanks to this, the app can display when you have a package on the way).
However, you can reinstall the app and re-register with another number.

The complaint is filed by a so-called authorized person. The recipient of the parcel becomes an authorized person only after picking up the parcel. If the parcel is in the In transit status, you need to contact the sender of the parcel.Claims are submitted through the Client section, where you search for the parcel you want to complain about.
Using the exclamation point icon, a pre-filled complaint form will open for you to enter detailed description. After filling out the form, you will receive a confirmation email with a request number.
We do our best to handle claims as soon as possible.
Complaints can be filed by the parcel sender or the recipient.
Damage compensation is paid to the authorized person, according to our conditions stated in the General Terms and Conditions or the Terms and Conditions in case of the BetweenUs service.
This depends on the reason for the complaint and the person making the complaint.
Our compliant form will guide you to the list of required documentation. If we need additional info while processing the claim, our claims department will contact you.
The complaint must be filled out directly by the sender. The recipient must therefore contact the sender directly and proceed according to the valid complaint procedure of the online shop, or communicate the return of the shipping fee with the physical sender through the application.
You can refuse to accept a visibly damaged parcel directly at the pick-up point. In this case, the parcel will be returned to the sender.
If you already received the parcel (or it was delivered via Z-BOX), it's necessary you take a photo of the packaging, interior filling, and contents of the parcel to make a valid claim. After taking all required photos, file a claim using the compliant form and attach the photo documentation. Our claims department will take care of the rest and contact you directly.Recognized damage is reimbursed to the authorized person within 30 days from the claim confirmation. However, we usually send the money earlier.
If you receive a parcel belonging to somebody else, contact us as soon as possible using the contact form.
In the form, it is necessary to document a detailed description of what goods were delivered to you and a description of the goods you were supposed to receive. We also recommend sending a photo of the shipping label on the parcel that arrived so that we can identify the other customer.
If you received something else than you ordered and the parcel was adressed to you, check the invoice enclosed by the online shop (sender).
If the invoice has a different name on it and lists goods that differ from what you ordered, the online shop made an error. It is therefore necessary to contact the sender (online shop you ordered from) directly and solve the matter with them.
If the invoice has your name on it but there are goods that differ from what you ordered, the sender probably made an error in the packing order. Please contact them (the online shop you ordered from) directly.
If the parcel does not contain an invoice or contains completely different goods that the online shop does not have in their portfolio, contact us via the complaint form and we will figure out the return of the faulty goods and how to move forward.According to the General Terms and Conditions, we have 30 days from submission to process a claim. You will be notified by email as soon as we begin to process your request.
