as a point of interest we moved from bb5 to bb1 rishton and even though rishton is in Hyndburn our car insurance nearly doubled because of the bb1 postcode.so where are we?

Rishton folk have tried to get their postcode changed from BB1 because of that. Someone on here must know about it and can explain more

I've been trying for years to get some sort of response out of Royal Mail and have been ignored for the most part. The argument eventually came back that it is the insurance companies' fault and they need to change their system.

On asking the insurance companies it seems that using the first four digits of a postcode instead of the first three is unfeasible due to the increased amount of work it would cause and it is the police who need to change the way they log crimes in postcode areas.....

Everybody's fault, nobody's job. Very frustrating.
