 * Hello,
 * The site is currently under development and we are having a issue with the “address
   postcode validation” in the UK.
 * Any inserted addresses are accepted at checkout and the validation does not work.
   It worked perfectly with normal zip codes like the swedish once, but not it is
   not working at all.
 * Any help?
 * Best regards
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Faddress-postcode-validation%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@dev45456](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dev45456/)
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * I checked your site, however, I was not able to since it seems in maintenance
   mode.
 * Can you please share with us a clear screenshot of what you see on your end so
   that we could address you more effectively?
 * If you don’t already have a screenshot service installed, you can try [https://snipboard.io](https://snipboard.io)
   or [http://skitch.com/](http://skitch.com/). You can share the direct link to
   the image as a response to this topic.

 * You will not see anything on the site.
 * Let me explain the situation.
 * I wanted to create specific shipping restrictions based on the postal codes DPD
   has send us.
    DPD is not delivering to every postcode in the UK, so I wanted 
   to use the “address postcode validation”, in order to restrict people from buying
   products if they are from a non DPD area.
 * This worked 100% for sweden, but the system does not recognize UK postcodes.
 * By restricting areas in sweden, people got an error if they wanted to checkout
   and their address was not in the DPD system.
 * When doing the same thing with UK postcodes, I get no restriction, even if I 
   use a non DPD address.
 * Hope this helps.

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the explanation, I’m sorry we were unable to reproduce the issue since
   the site is in maintenance mode.
 * To check better into this, please share a copy of your **site’s System Status**,
   You can find it under **WooCommerce > Status**. Select “Get system report” and
   then “Copy for support”. 
 * Please share screenshots of your shipping zones, you can send them via [https://snipboard.io](https://snipboard.io)–
   please follow the instructions on that page, then paste the URL in this thread.
   Thanks.
