After selling my dress on Facebook Marketplace I realised my mistake but the courier said it couldn’t intervene

It was due to be delivered the following morning and its offices were already shut so I spoke with an agent on the out-of-hours chat and explained it was critical the delivery be cancelled. They promised to put the request in writing but nothing could be guaranteed.
