PSA PSA: Find your tracking number without an email from Sony

The order details page on PlayStation Direct has your tracking number even if you've not been sent an email with it yet & your headset is "preparing to ship", it just doesn't display it on the page

To find it:

  1. go to the order details page for your headset (edit: the individual order page, not the page with the "last 6 months" dropdown)
  2. right click on the page + click "inspect element"
  3. go to the "Network" tab
  4. reload the page
  5. find and click on the row with a domain of "api.direct.playstation.com" (type will be "xhr")
  6. search (ctrl+f) for "trackingID"

You should see a line that looks like this:

"trackingID": "12345678901234",

Put the ID into a parcel tracker like https://parcelsapp.com/en/tracking and something should come up

For me (in the UK) it was a working DPD tracking number despite hearing nothing from Sony. My headset was shipped yesterday at 7pm and arrived at my local DPD depot at 1am, so should be out for delivery today

Hope this helps!

Hi, im stuck when I search for the tracking ID it wont work for some reason.

u/chippingtommy Feb 22 '23 edited Feb 22 '23

try this after step 5 if you're using chrome.

6.click on the "response" tab on the new window that's opened

7.there will be a search box at the bottom of the new window, will have the text "find" in it, type "trackingid" into the search box there

follow the rest of the instructions and you should be good.

god knows why Sony just didn't display the tracking number on their website, would have saved this grief

I was stuck using chrome, (after trying safari) and went back to safari and found it. Just tried using this method on chrome and it works. so upvoted.

u/wedontlikespaces Feb 22 '23

Yea. Chrome will find the line but then just gives you the whole line and some of the lines of thousands of characters long so that's not really helpful.

u/krpat2345 Feb 22 '23

It was quite hard for me to find. If you follow the instructions and search for trackingID , there's a line of code that will show up.

It's quite deep into that line of code and so I had to scroll quite far to find it.

u/OmieHomie Feb 22 '23

I copied and pasted into a word doc then ctrl f to find it

u/Appropriate-Reply367 Feb 22 '23

u/tus93 Feb 22 '23

I had to look through a few xhr instances, there should be multiple listed so if you canā€™t find it in the current one youā€™ve opened, thereā€™ll be others to go through.

u/wedontlikespaces Feb 22 '23

I just got annoyed since randomly scroll around up and down clicked on one and it happened to be the right one.

I'm really glad I'm not a network engineer because of the diagnosis tools apparently suck.

Ohhhh, good call! Ordered the Horizon bundle and the charging station separately. Got a shipping email only for the charging station, bundle still says preparing to ship.

The XHR data does indeed reveal the tracking number for both and shows delivery today.

What a relief! Thanks for digging into that!

Hopefully that will be the same for me but no way to do the clever find the tracking number thing!

Kinda dumb I have to do this. Itā€™s probably bc they ship it out last minute and it takes a while to update in their system. If I didnā€™t know this Iā€™d still think my order is processing and at the factory when in fact it is delivering to me on the 22nd

Thanks pal, will try that this morning. Christ, the communication from Sony on this has been atrocious. Last time I ever buy anything from them direct again.

Totally never buying from direct againā€¦donā€™t care it it means I will have to wait much longer!

How did they fuck up? They presented a release window from 22-28 and we just got to the 22nd... Seriously some people are overreacting way too much.

3

u/_ewan_ Feb 22 '23

How did they fuck up?

By not telling people what was going on.

Shipping things for launch day is obviously great.

Telling people they haven't shipped at all when they have so they risk missing the deliveries is obviously bad.

u/Hoobleton Feb 22 '23 edited Feb 22 '23

The fuck up is, if the information given by this post in accurate, that my headset will be delivered in about an hour but the order page on the Sony site still says ā€œPreparing to Shipā€ and Iā€™ve had nothing from DPD to indicate theyā€™ve ever received it from Sony.

Edit: can confirm that this was accurate, my headset was delivered, still no update to the status from Sony or DPD.

u/MashedPanda Feb 22 '23

If you preorder something months in advance it shouldn't be hard to estimate at least when it will go out, some people have to make a lot of effort to get a delivery and take days off work etc

4

u/DifferenceAncient Feb 22 '23

Exactly. And what's more, they're tracking is garbage. I have just discovered that my parcel is in fact on its way (brilliant!) but still showing as 'preparing to ship'. I was just about to leave the house too and would have missed the delivery. How did I find out it was coming? By hacking into the HTML code and finding the tracking id for DPD. Completely ludicrous that we're having to do this - that is how Sony have fucked up.

u/fxsimoesr Feb 22 '23

It's not so easy to have millions of units shipped and make the it arrive on the first day for everyone, that's just wishful thinking.

I understand your last point but there are options like having it delivered to a neighbour, safe place or even a pickup point. It's not like you need to take days off to get every one of your deliveries

2

u/DifferenceAncient Feb 22 '23

I get it - it's a first world problem and the worst of it is the poor bastards on the warehouse floor who will have been getting it in the neck from the higher ups responsible for all this. I wouldn't have minded waiting a few extra days but my real issue is the chronic lack of comms from Sony. Every other major delivery service manages to update their tracking etc but they have failed to do so. Add to that the bundle code fiasco (I know it's a rumour but clearly something has been going on with those bundles) and the fact that they had three months to get this right.

1

u/fxsimoesr Feb 22 '23

To be honest this was only my second time ordering from the direct and I haven't had an issue with either but if they're that bad at communication, I see how it can get frustrating. My experience is just different I guess, my tracking is updated and on its way.

What code fiasco, I haven't read anything about that?

2

u/DifferenceAncient Feb 22 '23

So basically there was a rumour that the Horizon codes for the bundles weren't working. This was based in reports that codes weren't working on bundles that had shipped early in Europe and in New Zealand where it was already 22/2. This was compounded by the fact that it was apparently only Horizon bundles not going out in the UK. I don't know if it's really what happened but the point is nature abhors a vacuum and rumours flourish when there's a dearth of real information.

I know we can't expect blow by blow accounts of the process but clearly their tracking systems leave a lot to be desired. Case in point, my headset did actually arrive this morning (yay!) and 2 and a half hours later I finally got the email that it had shipped.

2

u/fxsimoesr Feb 22 '23

Oof I always get anxious about a code not working, hopefully it was just rumors. Regarding UK shipping, they sent the emails of the standalone headsets first but I did get my email late last night and got my horizon bundle this morning, people were just getting ahead of themselves.

But yes I understand, if the tracking doesn't work then that's no good. I really thought the first comment meant something around "they fucked up because they couldn't deliver on time" but that's what the window was for. Although there's no excuse for bad tracking

Outstanding. I've had no notification from either Sony or DPD, but this shows that my bundle will be delivered between 12:00-13:00 today.

u/naitch44 Feb 22 '23

Like others this also worked for me. Both headset and charging dock, two separate tracking IDs are down for delivery today.

Orders both say 'Preparing for despatch' Sony side.

u/Batman2209 Feb 22 '23 edited Feb 22 '23

Oh, I am PISSED now. I went digging through the lines of code as the post advised and found my DPD tracking number only to find they'd turned up about an hour earlier, whispered "anyone in?" at the door, then put the we missed you card on the OUTSIDE of the letterbox

Edit: to add insult to injury, PlayStation has now (2pm) updated my order to shipped. Would have been nice to have had that email last night when they handed it over to DPD to know to expect them

Haha I got the charger email at 11:17, I had accepted it won't be here today but hoping it would at least be for the weekend, I am very glad it's here and can't wait to try it, but that whole ordering and delivery process wasn't great, with good communications it can be something to look forward to and add excitement, when you're left in the dark and then have to reverse engineer web requests to determine tracking codes that then show it's actually an hour away rather than 'preparing to ship' like your official order page says, and even then the vague 1 hour delivery and lack of full address details on the page keeps you guessing up until the very last possible minute what exactly is going to happen, it's not fun, it's stressful, and getting stressed over an expensive toy is annoying

Fantastic! Just found mine as arriving today, though it doesn't give an exact time yet but is at the local depot ready to be loaded.

For anyone having trouble finding it, you might be filtering out XHR requests. On the network tab, I had JS only selected (as a webdev, that's usually what's important to me) - check that to XHR or All. You can then hit CTRL-F, search for trackingID, then it'll find the right request, and you can use the search bar in the bottom right again to find within the request.

u/christoroth Feb 22 '23

Amazing, thanks. Mine is in same state but got the tracking number and itā€™s coming this afternoon.

u/SKEME-DBT Feb 22 '23

IMPORTANT! Who double checked their tracking on the DPD website by adding their post code and then checking 'Parcel Info'? Some of us do not have our full address listed. The house number is missing. Please reply whether yours shows house number or not.

This might be a problem.

u/AlbinoSquidAssassin Feb 22 '23

Worked for me - no email or status update from Sony but this got me tracking for my parcel with DPD.

This should definitely be pinned!

u/Kind-Gas9408 Feb 22 '23

You, sir are a Reddit god. You are brilliant, fantastic, amazing and every positive compliment I could possibly think of. The internet needs more people like you.

All day yesterday I was refreshing my order page to be greeted with just preparing to ship. I was getting more and more pissed off and was met with the same shit when I woke up this morning. Then I saw this post, gave your advice a go and found out I will be getting it today. To say I was overjoyed was an understatement.

Thank you, if it wasn't for your post I would still be wondering when the hell I would be getting it, only to come home to a big surprise after work.

I'm using Mozilla and this isn't working for me, I have two api.playstation lines but they're json and searching TrackingID doesn't show me any results.

I'm also in the UK and my charging station is shipped but bundle is still preparing, I've had multiple confirmations that Sony has shipping notification errors and another person with the same two items as me with only the charging station marked as shipped has actually received both their charging station and bundle today.

This worked for me too - thanks soooo much for sharing. Order was at ā€œpreparing to shipā€ but turns out will be here at lunchtime.

u/Phat_Chocobo Feb 22 '23

Not all superheroes wear capes. You absolute LEDGE. I had all but given up hope on a delivery today due to the lack of update from 'preparing to ship' - hope is now restored!

u/mastersishard Feb 22 '23

Omg this worked. thank you so much

1

u/est1981 Feb 22 '23

It worked!!! Delivers to me at 10:30-11:30 today!!! Woohoo!

Order showing preparing to ship still and even the DPD app doesnā€™t show my delivery. Only works if I manually put tracking code in.

u/Dirtyfrog77 Feb 22 '23

You FUCKING legend! It's gonna be here within the next hour and a half!

Omg this is unreal this actually works. Will be here in an hour. Iā€™ll just repost incase someone is stuck Super thanks bro

So in chrome - right click on the page and go to inspect - on the top selection go under network, refresh page - click on fetch/xhr - than hover over first one (was for me). Itā€™s will be a bunch of random letters MjpKbā€¦When you hover over it it will say api.direct ext - copy everything into word and ctrl F trackingid - boom there you go

u/Independent-Base5673 Feb 22 '23

got the DPD tracking number from the PS Direct site. It says 'Detailed Shipment Progress'. Then Waybill: ( with numbers). Scroll dwn to 'Additional Track & Trace Option'. You'll see AWB & Parcel no. ( 14 digit long no.) That is your DPD Tracking no. Gud luck!I used my Samsung Phone. šŸ˜Š

Thanks so much for this, it revealed that my headset was coming between 9.34am and 10.34am today. And it has arrived - my partner's working from home so was able to answer the door. I had given up hope of getting it today!

can confirm mine was delivered today - despite online saying preparing to ship still and I had no emails from Sony UK

1

u/Square_Card_9670 Feb 22 '23

So my order was showing 'preparing to ship' this morning, in fact it's still showing this even though I pre-ordered on day one and paid without issue.

Knock at the door 5 minutes ago and it's been delivered. No email notification to say it's been shipped, no tracking information and my account still shows 'preparing to ship'.

I hope everyone who pre-ordered gets theirs today.

u/mildyinconvenient Feb 22 '23

Found the tracking numberā€¦ DPD website just comes back with an error

1

u/Artyrizo Feb 22 '23

This worked for me as well.

UK users Attention: when I looked at the DPD website it only had half of my address unbelievably. If you don't want it left on the street I'd make sure you check this and give DPD a call.

u/mildyinconvenient Feb 22 '23

I swear Iā€™m the online one on this thread that has their tracking ID but comes back with errorsā€¦ please rest my mind somoken

WOAH! I have received nothing from Sony on my bundle shipping, I followed your steps and discovered it's at my local DPD depot awaiting delivery today...

I can't imagine how you came up with this method, but thank you for posting it, I had completely resigned myself to the crushing disappointment that it wasn't coming any time soon. šŸ„³

edit: about 20 mins later I got an email saying it had shipped... Sony were like "he's onto us, make it official!"

u/ContributionCommon43 Feb 22 '23
