What are the chances of me receiving this parcel?

[PyongyangKipperbang]

Bought something second hand for £50

Seller sent a photo of the parcel before she sent it and I noticed she had put the house number, village name, town name and postcode but not the street name. I messaged her straight back but she had already posted it.

Having the house number and postcode on it, it should reach me, right? I cant afford to lose £50

I think postcodes tend to pin point streets? 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

It should be fine, the sorting machines at mail centres only scan for the number/house name and post code

My ds always orders stuff and only ever puts partial info on order. So, full postcode and just number gets to him fine

I thought it probably would be ok, but was a bit worried!

I really hope it does get here!

It should get to you with just the house number and postcode. The rest of the address is just decoration.

I once had something delivered to me by mistake - wrong street, town and county. But it was my house number and postcode so it came to me.
I don't think they look at the rest of it.

Thanks all.

What was the deleted message?!

There's a spammer going round keeps being deleted probably that

I was trying to work out what would have wound someone up about this post enough to get a post deleted :o

Anything winds people up on Mumsnet! Hope your parcel arrives

True :o

And thanks!

House number and postcode is almost always all it takes to uniquely identify the address. Royal Mail should have no problems. If it's another courier, though, I don't know.
