Capita Business Support Services Ireland was awarded a 10 year contract in December 2013 to develop and implement the National Postcode System "Eircode".

My Department referred the issue to the Eircode contractor but the information provided in the Question is insufficient to resolve the case.  The person concerned can contact Eircode by e-mailing hello@eircode.ie, by post to Block C, Maynooth Business Campus, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, W23 F854 or by phone at 0818 300 005.
