Customer service email templates for ecommerce brands

Hi [CUSTOMER_NAME],

Thanks for reaching out. I checked order [ORDER_NUMBER], and it is still in transit. The carrier has not posted the next tracking scan yet, but the parcel is still moving through the network.

Please allow another 1-2 business days for the next update. If tracking stays unchanged after that, reply here and we will help with the next step.

Kind regards,
