No, Imagran, those translation sites are so poor you could start world war 3 with a misunderstanding!

That is bad news. Better get onto the firm.

Thanks

It says .... "The recipient didn't want the product and refused delivery. The parcel will be returned to the sender."

Hope that is not bad news for you!

PS I'm a German teacher, so pretty sure that's correct!

I'm expecting a chest of drawers to be delivered today so went on the 'tracking' option to see how close it is to being delivered.

It said

"Der Empfänger wollte das Produkt nicht und verweigerte die Annahme. / Das Paket wird an den Absender zurückgesandt.
Alternative Kontrollnummer"

Help! What does it mean hmm
