Case 207 · Stores: the shipment that wouldn't move
A complete store case: the shipment hadn't moved in six days and the gift had a deadline. A sample walkthrough, with a fictional business and data, generated from Atenty's case registry.
The policy that ruled this case: Vuela Alto's policy: if a shipment goes 5 business days without moving, the customer chooses — immediate replacement or a full refund.
Day 0 · 12:03 PM
The customer asks about his shipment
Tracking hasn't moved in six days. The gift is for Saturday: the deadline is part of the problem.
hi, my order hasn't moved in 6 days and it was a gift for Saturday 😕
Day 0 · 12:03 PM — under a minute later
She contains, opens the case and reads the real system
Atenty reads the tracking on the spot: the parcel is stuck at the distribution center. She doesn't promise what the carrier hasn't confirmed — she applies the policy, which for this case has already kicked in.
AtentyMarcos, I'm sorry. I just opened your case, it's number 207
I checked the tracking: it's been stuck for 6 days, no movement. Under the store's policy you can already choose: we replace it today or refund you in full
if it arrives by Saturday, I'd rather have the sneakers
perfect: the replacement ships today by express courier, free. Tomorrow I'll message you myself with the new tracking
Day 1 · 10:15 AM
The proactive notice
She writes first, with the real system data: the replacement is on its way and the stuck parcel is claimed with the carrier — the customer lifts no finger.
Atentyhi Marcos! your replacement is already on its way, arriving Friday afternoon 🛡 we claimed the stuck shipment ourselves, nothing for you to do
Day 2 · 6:02 PM
It arrives — and she asks for confirmation
The system says “delivered”. The case doesn't close on that data: it closes on his word.
Atentythe carrier confirms it arrived. can you confirm everything is ok?
Day 2 · 6:20 PM
He confirms — and the case closes
Closed with confirmation, as her law commands. The gift made it on time: the review is asked only now, at the peak.
it arrived perfectly, just in time. thank you!

The lesson of case 207
The customer never had to decode a tracking page or fight the carrier: Atenty read the system, applied the written policy and chased both shipments to his confirmation. Replying is not resolving — and the carrier doesn't close the case, Marcos does.
