Hi mickyowens,
What happens when you try to download a CSV or GPX file? Is there any error message?

download error as requested

Hello, tryinmg to click the uk postcodes 1 (gpx)

https://www.gps-data-team.com/poi/united_kingdom/postcodes/index.php?Postcodes_uk.gpx&id=poi&format=xml&file=Postcodes_uk

i get this error
"Please go back and select your state, region or county."

I get the same for the custom poi with extended info link, and the proximity link.

On the postcode link2

Garmin poi csv link
Garmin poi gpx
Custom/extended info
Proximity alaert links all give the same error

I can download the bmp files for both with no trouble!

Hi
That is not an error. What happens when you select your state, region or county?

I will be honest, i totally missed the small yellow drop down filter box but..
If i try uk poi i cant get them although i have managed to get england/scotland/wales/northern ireland by manually selecting them on the uk postcode 1 link.

I have not tried the uk postcode 2 link yet.

Editing this one as i did not mean to post the same message twice :lol:

Managed to get some of the postcode 2 links downloaded but im then told my post count is dangerously low, so i assume i simply need to post more to get access to the rest?
