Heads UP Shipping Error US to US Virgin Islands

This was the first time we got an order form the US Virgin Islands on Cube Cart.

There is a selection for Country "Virgin Islands U.S."

Which our customer selected when setting up their account and attempting to place their order.

They got an error, and the system message said to contact us. So the customer called.

After checking the error log I found the USPS website was giving an error, looking up the US Virgin Islands as a Foreign Country (which technically it is).

So I did a bit more research and found the USPS Does NOT consider the US Virgin Islands as a Country.

So I had to go in and change the customer's information to

Country: USA

and

State: VI

The order was then accepted error free.

There is a question though. 

How do I remove Virgin Islands U.S. as an option for a customer to select when opening a new account, or placing an order without an account, so this does not happen again in the future?

 

Thank You!
