Letter tracking

Post by Cheriedairy »

I don’t know if it’s the right place to ask but I sent out a letter. The postcode I put on the letter was B4 7BD but I noticed that the receipt I received from the post office said B47 BD. I was wondering if the letter will get sent to the correct place. When I tracked the letter it was at the Great Barr PDO.

99.999999% chance that it will get to the correct address. Delivery of the letter is based only on the address on the letter, not the one on the receipt. The only reason I didn't say 100% chance is because there is always a chance something can go wrong, but it won't be because the 2 post codes don't agree.
