 * I have had a couple of customers call today because there postcodes are not being
   accepted at the checkout, i have tried it myself and sometimes it works and sometimes
   it says Please enter a valid postcode/ZIP.
 * Help would be greatly appreciated
 * Kindest regards
 * Ben

 * Example postcodes and for what country? post your system status report so I can
   see if you’re running plugins with their own validation.

 * Hi Mike,
 * I changed back to the old version of woo to avoid any more issues.
    These are
   uk postcodes sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t.. i was looking at your 
   plugin to remove the required postcode field but at $50 its quite an expensive
   fix.
 * Any suggestion would be valued

 * If you can provide examples that would be good. I’ve not seen issues with our
   validation, and I myself am in the UK and have tested known formats.

 * Hi guys,
 * It appears there is still an issue with this. I have also discovered that it 
   has something to do with only “shipping to specific countries” option. I only
   want to sell to the UK, but I keep getting this error. However, when I choose
   the option to ship to all countries, it seems to work absolutely fine. HELP PLEASE!
 * EDIT: Forgot to mention that shipping zones are absolutely fine.

 * It even happens when I select only United Kingdom in “Sell to specific countries”
   and with “Ship to all countries you sell to” selected.
