I am from Co Donegal Ireland and we have no postcodes here. I am trying to submit an application form on the internet but I am stuck with the postcode bit. I get a message saying “oops something is not right”. The problem is with the box where you fill in your postcode. I’ve left it blank and it won't submit and I typed in none and that doesn't work either. Does anyone know how you get your way around this?
Answer:
I usually enter 0000, this seems to work.
Answer:
Argh! This so familiar to me! *fellow Donegalar!* I type in my boyfriends post code as he has a home in the North so it's fairly close to where we live as sometimes nothing other than a “valid” postcode will do. I'm sure you’ll get those postcodes on the net if you google them, it is usually just required to give whoever you are submitting the form to an idea as to where you live.
Answer:
I usually type xxxxxx or EIre or N/A something will work keep trying. Don't make up a real UK postcode that will just confuse things when the form is processed.
If you still have problems try contacting the company concerned via email or telephone if there is a number and ask them what to do.
Answer:
I usually put in a dash like this -
and it works for me.
My mum used to get mail from abroad with numbers attached for a postcode. And of course we don't have postcodes here. We never had the heart to tell the senders that what they actually put in was her phone number !!! (Might work for you too !!)
Answer:
Try putting in a series of random numbers.
The form is using javascript programming and it won't let you submit it or go on unless some numbers are written in the box.
Answer:
Just put in 00, that's what I always do cause I’ve no post code either where I live and I always get whatever I order delivered straight to my door without any fuss. Because if you think about it 00 symbolizes noting
Answer:
The problem is with the form - it obviously anticipates you to be in the UK.
You might just have to make up a postcode. The one for the Houses of Parliament is SW1A 0AA, why don't you try that?
Answer:
just try making one up?
it should have a 2 letters and 2 numbers and then a number and 2 letters
eg CL13 8IL
those forms are so annoying!!
