Important: Account Deletion is Permanent

Deleting your account is irreversible. Once deleted, you will not be able to recover your virtual address, mail history, company formation records, or any other data associated with your account.

Before You Delete

Please consider the following before deleting your Postd account:

  • Your virtual address will be deactivated. Any mail sent to your Postd address after deletion will be returned to sender after 30 days.
  • Update your registered office address. If your Postd address is used as a registered office with Companies House, you must file form AD01 to change it before or promptly after deletion.
  • Download your documents. Download any scanned mail, company formation documents, or records you need before requesting deletion.
  • Cancel your subscription first. Deleting your account does not automatically cancel your subscription.
