This can only be called 'Express' when compared to the dismal regular post where your package is kicked along the road until it reaches its destination. You get a tracking number but it never shows anything, just 'sent' or 'arrived'. Be careful that the package is not too heavy or conspicuous or it will be stolen by a contractor making $8 an hour. They may deliver it, or just leave a card so you can do their job for them.

Ok, so you can't deliver Express post the next day as per the intended purpose of the Express post offering, so then why are we still paying the same rate? This is bull%$#t

Shipped from Melbourne at 3 or 4pm. Received it in Sydney at 10am. Quite interesting considering a standard small parcel took 5 days from Melbourne to Sydney so express is definitely worthwhile in peak season.

Iran embassy posted my passport and other legal documents with Express post Platinum (supposed to be delivered the following day). It’s sitting in Mawson ACT for past 4 days, even after I rang them and complained. They charge people expensive, but they don’t give the promised services.

Waiting AGAIN for an express post parcel that was sent from Brisbane on the 19th of Nov. Processed at Cairns on Sunday the 22nd. Sitting there since. So 2 days doing nothing while I'm 20 minutes north of Cairns in Trinity Beach. My Catch normal post was received at the same facility yesterday & arrived today. How does a parcel post (normal post) arrive quicker than the express post parcel. Blows my mind how Aust post say they are prioritising Express Post when normal post arrived sooner. Oh the tracking number is R460226006987875006140900. I have filled in an online form for the missing/late item, reference number 36579534. Please sort out. Needed for my work. Thanks.

I sent important documents, that are time sensitive, via express post (Melbourne to Canberra). It is now over one week since posting and they are still not delivered.
This is the second time in a month that this has happened, the last time it took almost 3 weeks for the item to be delivered.
Totally unacceptable!!!

Came on time what a surprise, I left a 1 star review but had to change to a good review due to 1 day early the tracking info was lacking which lead to me first review.

Purchased an important gift for my son to be shipped from QLD to VIC paid extra for express postage in order to arrive quicker and safer! Package now delayed, no updates on tracking, no response to enquiry!
Very disappointing, packages from overseas sent via express post arrive quicker!

I have lodged a complaint for missing item 4 days now. Australia post delivered it in wrong address. It contains really important documents. I can not imagine, what will happen if someone misuse those documents. Every time, I called them, they are giving same reply. How Australia post could be so so irresponsible? Those are really sensitive documents.

I ordered a computer component from Canning Vale WA pm 6-Nov. to be sent express post. Tracking showed that shipping information was received by Auspost Mon 9-Nov 12:56pm but for a week it reported just "being prepared". I complained on this page about the poor service of Auspost but the sender has now admitted the item was probably left in the wrong place by new trainees after the con. note number had been generated ie. they reported the item as "sent" when it hadn't been, and there it sat for a week! In the end the item was picked up by Auspost in WA on the 16th and received in SA on 18th, so I - and the vendor - owe Auspost an apology. I will receive a refund for the express post fee and the trainees, hopefully, further instruction.

Sent a parcel express from regional Qld to Brisbane. They apparently couldn’t leave it in a secure place so the took it back to the post office. They did not leave a card to let the receiver know. Also a registered letter spend 1 week sitting in Brisbane before it got to my local mail centre then spent 2 days there. COVID is not a good excuse. Employ more staff and pull your finger out.

Here they don't accept Australia post ID (Red card issued from Auspost).
They said its not valid and we need Photo Id to collect parcel.The new young chinese lady with shoulder length hair is Rude and Not helpful.
And the postman will NEVER EVER try to deliver the parcel.No card left.
This message is behalf from all BELMORE street residents.

Aupost is worst than it ever was, it's using Covid 19 as an excuse to delay and lack of care for customers time and parcels. "Express" post now takes 5 days to be delivered while regular post is taking literally for ever. Terrible

I put a 0 star review here Thursday 5 November. Received a reply from '[name removed]' asking for tracking number. Cannot see where to reply. Another crappy thing about Australia Post. This review is -0 stars.
My tracking number is R538441056667771. As far as I can see, my EXPRESS POST parcel I posted on Wednesday 4 November in Adelaide is still sitting in Adelaide. WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!! When will it be delivered to Darwin????

express post used to be overnight delivery within Capital city , but it is very bad now , I used it from north sydney to Bella Vista it took 3 nights to get there!

My package was posted on Thursday from Melbourne and arrived in Rockhampton Sunday, but hasn't left the facility since then or been scanned? Amazing how it can make it from Vic to Qld in 3 days, but not from the PO to my house in the same city within 3 days.
Tracking is 0207058023972006060995
