well... i have a question. if you are writing to someone and part of their address is 90211 for example, if you accidentally wrote 90212, would that person still get it?

Hi Person,

No, it is very unlikely that the person you are sending to will receive your letter. Post Offices read addresses from the bottom to the top, so essentially one of the first things they look at is the zip code! It's very important you get it right. However, it's probably possible it does arrive at its actual destination but I'm not sure of the actual percentage that would. I'd still say its a very slim chance it'll arrive there and you'll just get it back RTS.

Hope that helped. {up}

I agree with above.

I wrote the wrong address the first time I wrote to Wicked Broadway, well the zip code and I got it back as return to sender. But I mean there is a slight chance it could get there but it's a higher chance you'll get a RTS.

I would say that it will arrive -

I'm in the UK and people frequently mis-write my postal code,street name and town (not all at once), and the mail does arrive.
