    Sorry to post on here but as its a Q re postcards and this is where the comps are I thought i'd chance it (sorry if its supposed to be elsewhere) having a real prob with my posties... I keep getting all the postcards sent back to me rather than the address they are intended for? I address them on the right hand side and the answer and my address on the left and i've started clearly marking them TO and FROM what else can I do? I've had about 15 back in the last fortnight its driving me mad and not too cheap for me either! :)

    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Thanks zx

    when i get a rebound postcard i simply stick it back in the post box as is, i dont re stamp or anything.

    what i have found has helped is to make sure the handwritten post code for to is very well written adn easy to read. otherwise the machines read my postcard which is printed so clearer (thats my theory anyway). ive only had the odd one or two cards back since i started ensuring neatness for that part lol

    also i write my addy at a 90 degree angle, my phone number and email below my addy, with the answer or a please enter me line at the bottom so post code is not the last thing to be read iyswim....but i did that all along and still got a bunch back until i started with making sure the post code was easy readable.

    im afraid its a hazard of the postal comps.

    Yes, I have. Even if I put TO on the Front (and they are proper postcards) and FROM on the back.

    I just repost them....hoping they reach their destination in time... it seems to happen in batches.... everything going well then like you I get loads back.

    No pattern, I wonder if we put them on the back of a sealed envelope would that help and be accepted by the competition?

    Glad it is not only me.
