Why do so many Canadians not know their postal codes?

I work for a customer service phone line and when we document customer information a lot of Canadians don't seem to know their postal codes. I know people don't write letters like they used to but you still get mail and it's gonna be on the envelope. It just doesn't make sense to me.Why do so many Canadians not know their postal codes?
well i know when i get mail, i don't read the envelope, the most i read of that is my name and who it's from, not my postal code



most canadians i know, know theyre postal code anyway
Tell your IT people to invest in a postal code database - it will automatically populate from the address in most cases. The only exception is with some post office box addresses and certain rural routes. Postal codes are still a relatively new thing for Canadians, they have only been around since the 70s.Why do so many Canadians not know their postal codes?
It is not because we dont know them , we dont give them out. They ask quite frequently asking @ the L.C.B.O AND i REFUSE.

I dont give out any information that I consider personal.



Ask if they Know their Bank P.I.N. number.
I think people are just too lazy to remember it. How often do you mail yourself a letter?



I search postal coeds on-line all the time at the Canada Post web-site. Supereasy.Why do so many Canadians not know their postal codes?
