We are working to register received service cases as soon as we can. Always check that the package was actually received by us and the date before sending your status request. Expect that if the package was received less than three days ago, we will not be able to give any status to the case because there is usually at least a three-day queue for received cases before they are registered in our system. During certain periods, the queuing time can be as long as two weeks. If you have not sent the package traceably, we can not guarantee that we can provide any status. If you, as an end customer, sent the case via a reseller, we ask you to primarily inquire about status via your reseller.
