I work in a e-commerce and the amount of people that forgets the street number is insane.
We send email to ask clarification: no response (probably filtered by the artificial stupidity classification in Gmail, everyone only reads the main category)
We call them to ask clarification: nobody picks up because they assume it's telemarketing
I blame the Google chrome auto fill, because it fills the whole form automatically instead of line by line like on Firefox, so people assume that it's filled correctly while instead the browser decided to omit the street number
There are ways to verify addresses exist and while an unknown address is possible, it should be extra work for the user to enter such an address such that it isn't the browser autofilling to blame.
These databases are used for calculating taxes since someone on one side of the street can have a different tax rate than their neighbor on the other side of the street.
As a customer I hate those "smart" address form as they don't accept my real house number but I need to put the generic one and hope the delivery guy is smart enough to read notes
If they do the form correctly, then it’s just an extra step for you to confirm. One flow I’ve seen that would accomplish this is:
That said, if you’re regularly seeing the wrong address pop up it may be worth submitting a request to get your address added to the database they use. That process will differ depending on your location and the address verification service(s) used by the sites that are causing issues. If you’re in the US, a first step is to confirm that the USPS database has your address listed correctly, as their database is used by some downstream address verification services like “Melissa.” I believe that requires a visit to your local post office, but you may be able to fix it by calling your region’s USPS Address Management System office.
