Parcel Locker addresses in My Post Business (2nd try)

siddieswans — Mon, 26 Aug 2024 05:24:04 GMT

Sorry I obviously did not make myself clear in my original post so I am starting again, in the hope that I have made myself clear this time. I am talking about importing eBay sales into My Post Business and the effect that a Parcel Locker address has on the label.

" I have only just realised that when the address is a Parcel Locker I should be choosing the specific Parcel Locker address from the drop down list rather than just the Business/Residential. When you chose this the address imported from eBay disappears and you have to copy and paste from the eBay invoice. In the past I have just left “Parcel Locker” and number on the 1st address line and cut and pasted the physical address to line 2. That’s 1 cut and paste as opposed to 5 copy and pastes. They must have been delivered OK. Anyone more experienced than me have a view? (I have only been using them for 4 months. No idea about Parcel Collect – haven’t had one in the last 4 months.)

I'll give the same answer, when I import into mypost, the full parcel locker address is populated correctly.

I just leave the address as is and don't change the drop down box and to tell you the truth I am not sure if I have noticed it.

Yes but do you choose Parcel Locker from the drop down list or Business/Residential - I had never noticed that these was a special Parcel Locker (and also Parcel Collect) drop down selection. Business /Residential leaves the address the same but choosing Parcel Locker wipes out the address (and also requires you to leave in an email address, which is optional with Business/Residential.) However I would guess that if nobody else worries about it I am OK to ignore it.

Yes I leave it on business/ residential. To be honest never even realised it was a drop down. It works fine,

I just did some playing with the drop down, I think its only relevant when you are creating an address from scratch. But the import brings in all the correct info so not required.
