Reduce Font Size on Address Label
When sending letter size packets to the US, I sometimes get them returned as "address does not exist". After some discussion with customers and their local postal service, it appears that USPS ONLY reads the last 4 lines of the address.
Therefore if the first line of the address goes over 2 lines, their automated systems cannot find the full address (as it is now 5 lines long) and simply return the post!
This does not happen on Large Letter / Small Packet as the font appears to be smaller.

Allow non business to use PDDP (Postal Delivery Duty Paid) service
Smaller businesses that don't send frequently are currently barred from using the OBA and have to use the personal account click and drop. Yet its small businesses that are less likely to have their own IOSS set up and need or want to use a DDP service.
I send less than 20 a week but a large part of them are international and high value. I would like the have the option to ensure the customers don't get extra charges on delivery.
This is offered by many couriers, why not Royal Mail? Limiting the service to OBA members cuts out…

Include Printed Paper Rates for International Postage
I haven't been able to find an option to send "Printed Papers" small parcels weighing over 2kg to International addresses.
It should be possible to pay a supplement for each additional 250g up to 5kg but I haven't been able to find a way of doing it using Click & Drop.
Is there a way, or could it be added?

Marking orders as despatched (option to clear Old Orders)
=======
Summary
In relation to orders that have not been marked as despatched - Perhaps it would be helpful to:
1) Ensure that the system ignores older orders as clearly they have been dealt with after a certain timeframe (1 week?)
2) Perhaps offer a way to filter this section by date, and have the option to simply clear old items.=======
Reasoning
I have Click and Drop intregrated with Ebay. In my personal use case, there is one part of the Click & Drop worklow that I do not normally use - the "Mark Orders as despatched" section -…

Collections interface unreliable
The collections service is somewhat unreliable. It either reports that the service is unavailable and will be back soon (but doesn't return the same day) or randomly fails with random error codes when a batch of collections includes international items.

Unmark the despatched items when despatched ready for the next batch
Please can you look at 'unmarking' the despatched items. We're a small business who didn't get authorised for a OBA account even though we have been trading since 2015 but we send a lot of samples to nurses and clinics etc. Once they have despatched and the label created it would be nice not to have to go in and manually unmark all the boxes in the Beta set up as if we've just sent 30-40 samples and you miss just one its a pain to have to start again at the top. The list also only goes up so…

Option for generated labels to be opened only
Enable a setting which allows the option for generated labels to be opened only and not automatically downloaded to files as current, which increases the workflow, creating extra admin to locate and delete files as well as taking up storage. It may be useful for some users for automatic download for not others.

Royal Mail App Proof of Postage
Dear Royal Mail,
The Royal mail app does not provide proof of postage for tracked 48 parcels and keeps saying pending when my parcels have been scanned through Royal mails network when dropped off either at a parcel box or Royal mail delivery office. Without proof of postage I can't make a claim if my parcels get lost or damaged during delivery. The only option I have is to go to the post office wait in the queue sometimes more then 15 minutes and get charged 16p for each parcel which adds up to a lot of money. I have…

Electronic customs declaration
Why is the electronic customs declaration only for 8 items? Probably it is enough if to send abroad a small parcel. But if to send a big parcel of 5 or more kg, then it is a tricky to declare all items. Could you please improve the declaration adding more lines to declaration.

Charging The 16p Supplement Charge Separately Causing Issues With Accounts Software Package
This is causing havoc with my accounts package. If I have to pay an extra 16pence, it should be taken off at source, as it is difficult to balance books with an after the fact transaction.

Add extra items collected with my collection to the email confirmation
Add extra items collected with my collection to the email confirmation of what has been collected, so I have proof of posting.
I often want to send extra items with my booked collection. However, the extra items do not appear on the email confirmation of collection. This leaves me without proof of posting. The email should include booked and extra items.

Stop Auto-Filling Customs Description
The customs description "auto looks up" based on commodity code and replaces the description on the labels printed.
However the description against a code is not necessarily the actual contents. For example 9209940000 covers parts and accessories for music equipment described in 9207xxxxxx and it automatically puts "guitar knob" every time on the documents despite me entering an accurate description "Electronic display for music synthesizer".
It means that the package is returned by the destination countries customs agents, due to an inaccurate contents' description.
This behaviour it is not helpful to us; it should only do this if the user…

Collections Statuses Aren't Always Updated
The status of a Collection doesn't always update properly. I have several of collections that were collected but in my account appears as awaiting collection. One of them was collected, but appears as 'Attempted', and the email said the item wasn't available for collection, so now I don't have any proof of postage for an international shipping.
Please fix this. thank you.2 votesWe are considering improvements to collections in upcoming releases. Thank you for your suggestion.

Please clarify regarding adding extra items to already booked collections
The Click & Drop service is great and the free collections are an excellent feature that mean I will use Royal Mail over and above any other service.
However, while the website site says 'if you want to add other items to your booked collection, just hand them to your postie', on the three occasions I have tried to do this, the postman says he can't take them because they aren't in his system. As such he has to make another call to collect the next day, which seems very wasteful! In fact, they ARE in the system, because I…

Service Total Including VAT Is Sometimes Incorrect
We have noticed that on occasion the price of a service + VAT sums to a 1p more or less than the total.
This has meant we have had to manually reconcile accounts.

Bug: Editing Customer or Product Details Not Reflected In Saved Products & Address Book Entries
When you edit the customer address / product details during create an order, if you delete a line of text, it shows correctly on screen. However, the printed label (and entry in the address book) has the original line of text rather than the blank field.
The only way around this is to edit the address / product data in the address book / product list before creating a new order.
This needs correcting, as I often end up having to request a refund for labels because of this.
3 votesWe are working on improvements on how address book referenced data can be amended as part of an import of orders, or during the create order process.

Status Heading
With the new layout, it is hard to differentiate an order's status quickly by glancing down the column. Whether it says Postage Applied, or Label Generated, they are both the same width and colour. If Label Generated was a little longer (or vice versa) a quick glance down the column could identify those orders not yet completed. This was much easier to identify on the old layout.
