Dublin postcode. advice needed. updating billing and shipping address

I can't update my Apple billing and shipping address as Apple is saying all of Dublin has only 2 digit postcodes which is very outdated! And I won't accept 'no postcode' even though the form says it does. And it won't accept an eircode. Anyone else solved this - since Apple haven't addressed it?

Unable to add billing address with Irish postcode When I try to add a billing id on the App Store on my MacBook, it won't accept my postcode. When I try to enter a postcode in the eircode format (i.e. "WW00X123") I'm given the following error message: "postcode may be empty, or for Dublin, please enter a one-or-two-digit code, or a digit followed by a letter." Of course I've tried various options, no postcode, a "one-or-two-digit code, or a digit followed by a letter", but in either case, I'm given an error message. What's slightly irritating about this error message, it's that I've actually been experiencing the same error message for about four years now on different occasions. Using different postal addresses (I've moved house), different email addresses, but always the same error message. I need to buy a new phone, and was thinking of getting an iPhone, but if I can't install apps, then that's a non-runner.

Why won't apple accept my postal code? I'm from Ireland and when I put in the correct postal code for billing address it refuses to take it. It just keeps saying "postal code may be empty or for Dublin, please enter a one or two-digit code, or a digit followed by a letter". What do I do??

Apple account details and Ireland Eircode I have just updated my account address details and payment details BUT the address details will not accept an Eircode other than Dublin. We live in a rural area - difficult to find without the Eircode. Such a simple issue but why can't Apple manage it? Any comments?
