FAQ
A real UK street address. You can customise the address format to appear business or residential.
The actual address is based in London. You do not need to be based in or even near our location yourself to use the service (we have clients worldwide).
The full address will be released to you when you sign-up (we do this to prevent unauthorised use).
We give you a real, physical UK mail address to use which gives a better impression, image and improved credibility. It’s also more private, discreet and confidential compared to Royal Mail’s PO Box service. As if that wasn’t enough, we’re cheaper too, with no long contracts.
Our service is available to receive post for individuals, businesses, and companies worldwide.
The address we provide may be used to receive post for any lawful purpose from any person, business, or organisation anywhere in the world.
We can accept letters, parcels and packages, including any deliveries that need to be signed for. We just ask that items aren’t excessive in weight and size.
Parcels and packages must not contain any items prohibited or restricted by Royal Mail or under UK law.
You must ensure that when you give out your new address, it is clear to anyone writing to you that they should include either your name or business name (or both) on the envelope. You must also inform us of any mailing names you intend to use so that post received can be matched to your account.
As standard, our packages allow one (1) mailing names. If you require more than 1 name, you can purchase additional mailing names at a cost of £4.99 each per month. To add additional mailing names, please contact us.
We’ll handle your post exactly as you’ve instructed us to. You can specify how you would like us to handle your post during the sign-up process. If you need to change these instructions at any point, just contact us.

Alternatively, you can choose to collect your post from many local Post Offices in the UK using the Poste Restante service, which may be more convenient depending on your location.
If you’ve opted to have your post forwarded, it will typically take 1-2 working days to be received from when it left our offices. International residents will normally receive post between 3-7 working days from when it left our offices.
