Convert Common Non-ASCII Characters When Importing Orders
When entering a name and address in to Shopify (and most other web sites), Unicode character set is available to users. When these orders are imported into Click & Drop, any non-ascii characters are flagged up for manual "fixing".
By far the most common "invalid address" that C&D asks me to fix (every day) involves just changing apostrophes from Unicode "right single quotation mark" (U+2019 or U+2032) characters to their ASCII apostrophe equivalent (U+0027).
There are other cases, most notably European addresses containing diacritical marks, etc. While I'm sure the developers could automatically convert these to the nearest equivalent roman characters, this might be less trivial to implement.
The apostrophe case is trivial to implement, and is very common both in peoples' names (like O'Neil) and in UK street addresses (123 St John's Square).
It would save a lot of users' time and frustration to automatically "fix" those in your incoming data.

Add claims function
I know this has been asked before, and it has been declined before - why? It would be far simpler all round if a claim could be directly started by a click beside the missing/lost/mis-delivered parcel? The current claims process is an absolute pain in the butt.

Allow WooCommerce Customer Order Status to Sync.
Please allow custom order statuses to sync to click & drop, not just "Processing" orders.
Lot's of WooCommerce users use custom order statuses to manage orders, having only the "Processing" orders sync, leaves us to manually enter a large chunk of orders.
An extra field in the settings page where you can write the slug of the extra order statuses would fix the issue, and allow us to continue using Click & Drop.

Bug report: Unable to legally buy postage to the USA for parcels worth more than £593 ($800)
There is a critical bug in the new system for buying PDDP to the USA through click & drop. When declaring a package value of more than £593, the form errors out and fails to submit. The only way to buy postage for a package worth more than this value would be to falsely declare a lower value, which would be fraudulent.
£593 is roughly $800, so I presume this bug is related to the threshold for the previous duty-free limit.

Get C&D working with Safari on earlier Macs again...
Until last week, C&D was working perfectly fine for eight years on our MacBook Air despatch computers with Safari and then an update from Royal Mail killed it. Royal Mail tech support advice is to buy newer laptops, which for a small business isn't going to happen. Developers should just do their jobs and make sure changes are backward compatible.

Revert to the old system for handing tabs in Click & Drop
Please revert back to the old system or at least give us the option of having tabs remain open or not when an order is clicked, for example, to amend postage details etc.
These tabs never used to stay open when simply amending postage details for an order.
Now you've created work for us by having to click to close tabs when there gets to be too many open for the browser to handle. This can happen 2-3 times per day in my case. More work for no gain.
This is especially egregious since it worked perfectly beforehand.

BUG: Cannot make payment
After cancelling a payment that it seems did not cancel properly, I cannot make any payment at all for which I assume is related to the previous payment not cancelling properly and am just shown the following error for 3 days:

automatic refund for lost tracked post
If a tracked item is shown as not received after ages. Then obviously that item either hasn't reached the destination, or it hasn't been tracked as was paid for. So the cost of postage could be automatically refunded without the customer (who has already lost a sale) can at least get their postage costs back without filling out a massive form.

new address book interface
As a neuro diverse person, i find change very hard. So to be faced with a new interface for adding and changing addresses in the address book without being warned was difficult.
A note on the login page (where you say new features are coming but not that this had been done) would have been very useful.
Or perhaps you should have had it as Beta, like other pages, so we can choose to go back if we wish.
I decided to really check it out before saying i didn't like it, i like to be fair.
At the moment there is only one thing that makes it worse than the old page, which considering your track record on changing things is pretty good going :-)
I filter addresses via my customer number when adding new addresses. So i will filter, for instance, numbers starting 3928 so that i get all the numbers from 39280 to 39289.
This seems to work the same as the old page but if you scroll down the page to look at the last one, for instance, you have to scroll right back up to the top to add a new one. The previous page had the "Add New Address" as a sticky nav header meaning you could be anywhere on the page and still get to it.
This may sound like a small thing, but it quickly became annoying during testing today.

2 votesThank you very much for your feedback.
An update will be made to the address book page so that the ''Add new address'' button is returned to the sticky header. This page will be updated once the change is live.
Regarding the reference being clickable: this is no longer a link due to accessibility adjustments, but you can still edit the entries by simply clicking anywhere else inside that row. So you do not necessarily have to click on the three dot menu, but you could click inside the Customer address, Shipping address or Billing address columns instead and this will open a tab to edit the address book entry. Hopefully this will make editing your address book entries a bit easier!
Kind regards,

Do not hold Tracked 48 parcels for 24 hours before scanning
As well as Royal Mail and Parcelforce parcels not being scanned at point of collection like other carriers manage to do, we also have the problem that all our Tracked 48 parcels are not scanned when they are received at our local hub. We are reliably informed that their standard practice is that because they are Tracked 48, they are left for 24 hours before being processed and scanned for the very first time. This means that our customers still get the "We're expecting it" message for at least 24 hours since it has been in the possession of Royal Mail. This is unacceptable and customers have difficulty in believing us when we say that their parcel has been despatched. This reflects badly on ourselves and damages our credibility and customer confidence in our service levels. It also results in negative feedback and lost customers especially at critical times such as the run up to Christmas.
Even if they cannot be scanned at the point of collection, all Tracked parcels should be scanned within a few hours of being collected from our business premises irrespective of whether they are a 48 or 24 hour service.
It is also worthy to note that if a parcel is "lost" for any reason before it is scanned for the very first time then Royal Mail will not accept a claim. Their stance is that there is no proof that they have received it even though we know that it has been in their possession for at least a day and has been transported between our premises, the local depot and then the hub.
For anyone who knows the shortcomings in their systems then there are plenty of "opportunities" shall we say!!
Another reason why they should be scanned as soon as they are in the possession of Royal Mail staff.
No ifs or buts!!!

Provide an option to make the "Order reference" a required field
Would it be possible, please, to give the option to set the "Order reference" field as required so it cannot be left blank? This would mean that all shipments can be referenced to their corresponding delivery note, pick list, or whatever other internal reference a company uses to identify shipments sent using Click & Drop. As a bonus, you could add an editable description so that the user can add what that reference is in brackets - i.e. "Order reference (delivery note)".

Stop messing with default browser input styles.
Firefox is not displaying the state of checkboxes in the options.
This is because your inept webdesigner has chosen to incorrectly disable the default browser style for inputs.
input {
appearance: none;}If I remove this CSS, I can see the state of checkboxes in the options menus again.
Please fix this and stop messing with defailt browser styles.

validate country in address
There are problems with customers in the Channel Islands who still use the United Kingdom in their address for orders imported from eBay/Amazon marketplaces
When imported into C&D the country then appears as "United Kingdom Excluding Channel Islands" and does not display all of the correct delivery options. For example there are no delivery options for Parcelforce where orders are over 2KG.
The country should be "United Kingdom - Guernsey" or "United Kingdom - Jersey". There is no warning or error message from C&D.
The addresses correctly state Guernsey or Jersey and they have the correct postcode. C&D should be able to validate the address and apply the correct country.
If the user becomes aware of the problem and manually amends the country, then all of the shipping options are then displayed.
It should be entirely possible for C&D to correctly identify the country based on the postcode alone and not default to "United Kingdom Excluding Channel Islands". If nothing else it should alert the user that there is a conflict between the country and the rest of the address details.

Bring back S17 single label printing option
I am a personal customer who regularly uses Click & Drop and I have been printing my own labels for several years. As a result, I have a large stash of S17 labels.
I purchased three Tracked 24 labels today, but was not given the option of using the single label style, but instead could only print all three labels out on a single page.
Please reinstate the option to select the single label style - I suspect I am not alone in having label stock that needs to be used. I cannot afford to replace the labels I currently have.
Until you reinstate the option to select printing on S17 labels, the only option I have is to buy each postage label individually. I am prepared to do this, despite it being inconvenient, but it does mean that Royal Mail will be paying fees on each individual transaction.

Sender's name WRONG on customs forms
The form automatically populates name of the signature on the customs form as the "sender". This is not (necessarily) the sender. For example, if the sender is a business - the sender name is instead replaced by the name of the signature on the customs form.
When I remove the signature name, it auto-populates the name from the payment details... It shouldn't keep borrowing names from all over the place when the trading address and customs details are clearly setup.2 votes
