Hello,
Can you show me how did you configured your manual shipping method restriction options, and what is the shipping address that you are using for your shipping address through some screenshots ?

Hi,

I have attached the print screens of the restrictions and the shipping address.

I only changed the post code to see if this would work.

Just another question, I think I may have realised why this method doesn't work.

Would it be because on my Standard Shipping method I have no restrictions so it will just use this one as a default? As there are no restrictions to pin point what we want to use it for?

Thanks.

I have worked out how to do this by "State" so now the postage price changes on which state they live in.

So now I gave around 100 shipping methods!!

Should work fine though. Would be great if you could tell me about the post code way though!

Thanks.

The min and max post code options of the manual shipping method can only be used for number not letters. I see that you're using letters.
In that case, you would have to use brainforge's shipping plugin which specifically handle UK post codes:
