having troubles buying from mi store just keeps saying my postcode isnt long enough or wrong several different ways. has anyone else had this issue and if so any way of getting around it?
Why not use a local postcode that is recognised and then fill in the correct door and street. The driver will still deliver it to you even if postcode is wrong
There is an option to leave a note for the driver in the DPD app. Tell the driver that postcode is incorrect and give them the correct postcode. (edited)

I know... I'm one of them But when the postcode doesn't match the delivery street we put the address and house number in sat nav.

ive tried that too, i think it just doesnt recognise my address yet. it was only built september last year
I was going to suggest using a local address and then getting it delivered to your local shop for you to collect but they'll probably insist on address matching unless your acquainted with the shop. You can do this via DPD app.

I just called them and they said their system didn't have the postcode yet and they can't add it manually so unless I send it to someone else they can't help
Thanks everyone for your help (edited)
They are useless
I'm sure somebody will answer soon if not have a look on any of their phones posted on this site on the deals as people always mention the mi site being a pain when you get to the address part

hopefully
Have you tried your post code with a space i.e AB15 2QT

tried that too it says
Wrong parameter error
Author
it also says that it should be 10 digets
Postcode must be in caps with no space

Ok thank you all
You have to type it in slowly, if you go too fast it doesn't work. Poor website that causes a lot of confusion!

That didn't work either. Like I said it was only built September last year so probably doesn't recognize it
My old address doesn't work on that site and hasn't for over 3 years. I emailed them about it asking to add it, took them a year to reply (seriously).
Basically can't use it
Try my method. It should work.
This is probably worst postcode validator ever made.
The only way for me to make it work was to enter in capitals with space, it fails on lowercase LOOOOOOL.
