Hallo Daniel

I was wondering why, although I live in Switzerland, my location is given as Tower Hamlets? It seems to apply to others living outside the UK too. Is there any way this can be changed/corrected? Would appreciate it very much if you could explain.

Best regards

Sue Heyer

The Tower Hamlets thing is a ridiculous Sue. I hope you achieve a change there.

It is a bit strange, isn't it? I wouldn't mind if it was somewhere like the Scillies, i.e. somewhere a bit more exotic, but let's wait and see.

People often ask about this, but no-one from GW has answered it yet. Someone said it was because GW head office is in Tower Hamlets. I haven't looked it up. I live in France and I'm in Tower Hamlets too, but you can write in your profile where you live and a bit about yourself.

Hello everyone,

Apologies for this. I've asked our technical team to come up with a solution to this. It is possible to choose a non-UK country of residence during the registration process, so it's this that should display. I'll post an update once I know more.
