DLA Child Postcode

I'm trying to return DD's DLA application form and want to send by recorded delivery... but the address given on the form is freepost (no postcode)... and Post Office are saying they must have a postcode to post via recorded delivery.

Has anybody else got around this? Any idea what the post code is?

Thank you!

No, I just sent it freepost as I couldn't work it out either. Make sure you have copies of everything if you handwrote the form.

Thank you - I may have to do that, although was worried about all the sensitive information in the envelope! Do you get any form of notification from DWP that they have received the form? As I believe there's about a 6 month wait for an outcome...

Yes we got confirmation of receipt
It wasn't quick, but well before the 6 month mark. I believe you can also phone if you are worried.
