Configuring Royal Mail Shipping???

[Guest clothahump]

I have enabled Royal Mail shipping and inserted GBR as the ISO and the following for weights and prices, 0.250:1.49,0.500:1.99,0.750:2.99,1:3.99,1.5:4.992:4.97,4:7.99,6:8.99,8:9.99,10:1

0.49,20:11.99

Problem now is I get this error when trying a test purchase.

Sorry

We cannot ship an order of that total weight.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Where did you get those prices? I have been looking for Royal Mail prices for quite a while?

Royal Mail website and put it together myself, does not work in 3.0.1 so dont bother trying to use it.

How is it not working I seem to get it to work quite well in my testing of my store.

Country ISO needs to be GB not GBR

I have found another problem though, if you have both shipping by weight and Royal mail enabled i find that the Royal mail option overides the shipping by weight (not always) and will even go as far as sending "We cannot ship an order of that total weight." when there are viable options for the cart items weight in "shipping by weight"

Anyone any ideas on this ? i have royal mail weights set up to 1kg and shipping by weight options set to 20kg for other services..

Quick Question???

What goes in the Handling Fee and where can I name the shipping types, or does the shipping type go in the handling fee???

[Guest fiddy]

Handling fee is your fee, I use it to put an average(highest?) cost of packaging.
