+mpilchfamily Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Check your account details. Make sure you have the correct home location entered. Also check your preferences and make sure you have the correct time zone selected. Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 If you're using post codes add ,UK at the end. eg AB12 3CD, uk Often helps if you're searching by name, they often have the same name in the US. eg Boston, uk It's not Groundspeak, it the map people! Quote Link to comment

The TB owner my let you know the number, or may fix it themselves. You could leave a Note on the cache page, and the TB's page to explain your problem, the next cacher may let you know the number, or sort it themselves. Not a big problem, you're not the first to make the mistake, and won't be the last! Rule number one for trackables is: Write the number down, and keep it safe! Quote Link to comment
+RhinoInAToga Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) If you moved from Canada to the UK *if your home location was originally in Canada* If you had notifications set up for when caches were published around your home location.. it won't change when you change your home location. you have to change each notification preference listed within your account. At least I did, a few months ago. Of course I don't know if you ever lived there. Just letting you know in case it helps. Edited November 8, 2011 by RhinoInAToga Quote Link to comment
+hzoi Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 If you're talking about the area code search box on the "Find and Seek a Cache" page, that's for US telephone area codes only. If you try anything else, it gets confused and redirects you to the postal code page. Quote Link to comment
