    Bit of an odd idea, perhaps, but...

    I have a USA address through my-us.com (they take in parcels from the USA - I use it for companies I buy from that don't ship internationally, and then they send on to me), and maybe there is a similar website that might offer a Southern Irish address?

  • Not sure if this is any good.

    We also offer a mail forwarding service for business or personal users who require a Northern Ireland address. We accept mail on their behalf and forward it to them through the postal system.
    If I cared what everyone else thought, I'd be just like everyone else, and there's already too many of them. :A

    Thank you to all of you who offered suggestions-finally got the phone today :j

    Thought I would just tell you how we managed it in case anyone else found themselves in the same position.....

    I had until the end of the day to let them know a shipping address within Southern Ireland and was practically in tears :( out of desperation I sent a live chat message to Gifts.ie and explained the situation. They were FAB :T They told me to order an empty gift box, then send a message explaining that I was sending my own item into them to be included within the box. I did this and then messaged Meteor with the address & contact name for Gifts.ie.....
    It was a bit of a risk as the phone wasn't insured for its value, but it was a risk I had to take as had no other option

    The whole thing cost me 19 euros :beer:

    Thank you all again-I have given the phone to my tech mad fiance so he is now encouraging me to do even more comping ;) I get his Note 2 which is amazing to me as have been using my phone with a badly smashed screen since January!!!

    May good luck be your friend in whatever you do and may trouble be always a stranger to you.
