For the first time tonight making a label, the Etsy system says that I have an unconfirmed address. Now I have had this with a customer, but ME? How do I make my address "post office" acceptable? Thank you in advance.
I figured it out. For some reason now my address has to be all in CAPS. Never before now. That did it.
There's another new post about this with many sellers having the same problem.
Looks like another Etsy label glitch.
(Psst -- these problems don't happen on PirateShip.)
PirateShip? Are they any good:)

That is SO retarded and SO backwards. More and more tech glitches plague these shipping companies. Nearly every address in America in the Etsy system says unconfirmed. That implies that our addresses "MUST" be validated, validated by who? the address police? This is authoritarian BS that keeps happening. Never had these issues 8 years ago. I need my Mommy to verify I live or get mail at the return address or the origin address. What even happened to our privacy laws? Just saying...
I cant get labels either both my address AND my customers address are "unconfirmed" and the option to get a label is grey and not letting me get a label
I am using all caps, and it's still saying it's unconfirmed. ;(
I promise you, this address should be confirmed.
now my CUSTOMERS shipping address says unconfirmed and it won't let me purchase a lable!!!
ETSY FOR GOD SAKES GET THIS FIXED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is unbelievable. In this Help Article re: Shipping Labels, it says NOTHING about having everything in all caps. So if this is yet another glitch (or permanent change), there has been no mention of it in "Technical Issues" or "Known Issues".

@BirdieGirlAntiques very smart of you to think of it, especially since you said it wasn't required before. Although others using all caps are still having trouble.
I have no experience with Etsy Labels (have never used them). I feel badly for all of you having trouble and hope this is fixed soon. I know every site has glitches, and I don't know what's going on around here with so many glitches piled on top of one another. Bottom line, Sellers cannot afford to lose Buyers (as it is, you see many Threads re: low sales).
In Bulgaria I do not have the option to print labels and confirm the address. My addresses are published only as data, without specifying which is a city, which is a street, etc. Here they want a phone number for sending, and this is obviously not the case, and I wanted the phone from the client. This worries me a lot.
