Royal Mail Shop Registration Advice For Overseas Customers



If you've been having problems registering with the Royal Mail site to order the new Doctor Who 50th Anniversary stamp sets from outside the UK then read on. Our Facebook follower Lisa Park has done some checking around and has come up with the following top tips:


1) When entering your address in the registration process, don't click on "find address."
2) In the section about flat name and such, if you live in an apt, put your apt # for flat name, your street number for property number, and your street name for property name. If you live in a house, put your house number in property number and your street name in the street field, and leave property name blank.
3) Leave all dashes out of your phone number.
4) Call your credit card company to let them know you'll be making an overseas purchase.
5) If you're making the purchase after you've already registered, don't log in first. Start at the shop, load up your cart, and then click the check out button. It'll let you sign in as part of the check-out processes. If you're already logged in, it apparently gets confused and sends you to your profile editing page!

Thanks Lisa!
