free POBox address uk/mailchimp
I started to add mail chimp to my site for gathering emails and sending out updates. This is all new to me and good training for my future sites.
I installed the mail chimp plug in, placed the mail chimp widget above my right side text widget/ad.
I then had to make an account at mail chimp and generate an API key on the mail chimp site/my account. other wise the widget will not appear.
The API was then added to the plugin via the settings.
Next was to create a list, add the messages users see and receive once signed up for site content updates.
They to comply with anti spam laws i have to include a physical address. I was'nt keen on putting my home address so i started looking for a PO BOX.
ukpostbox.com offered me this.

this is a free PO BOX, for up to 10 letters a month, and then you pay as you go, if you start receiving more mail. or you can change the plan at a later date.
You need to scan and email or post ID and proof of address.
Once validated you have a free PO box to add as an address.
Hope this helps someone out.
Good luck
Brown.

I still don't have any of that. This is going to be useful information for me. Thanks for sharing.
eg.
PO Box address:
**** 54**
PO Box 92
******
*******
quote. Always use your postal ID in conjunction with your name, see example formats below. The word “unit” can be changed to suit your requirements, office, building, flat....etc.
got it today. approved. also, i can port a froward address, that no one can see, and have mail forwarded to me.
and use things like title. "office" or "centre", with my 4 digit number.
Thanks for this.
Like Brown, I got an auto-responder and to compile with laws, I need to include a physical address. I do not want to use my home address. So this sounds good.
Brown wrote his comments over 6 months ago, so hopefully now is a good time to ask:
a) How do you find the ukpostbox.com service?
b) Would you recommend it?
If anyone else has experiences of ukpostbox.com, please add your comments as well. Many thanks.
