GB csv full of errors #109

Hi

I have purchased the GB csv and imported it. Unfortunately it is full of errors, including missing counties, incorrect counties, counties that no longer exist, and many of the towns/cities are actually small villages or hamlets and so are likely to be of little use.

Also this should be called UK (United Kingdom) as it contains data from Northern Ireland which is not in Great Britain.

Thanks

Is this something you're thinking of fixing, or should I just go ahead a compile my own list. If so no problem, but I would appreciate a credit for the €10

It's hard for me to reply without any reference given.

Have you also seen the disclaimer at the end of the page ?

Disclaimer: We don't claim to have all cities, just a lot...

Without any reference I have no idea what is wrong.

I don't give any refunds for a small CSV package like this. I spent hours compiling all the lists. 10,- is approx. 10 minutes of work, on a standard 75,- p/h rate as a developer. You can't tell me you can't use it, it has over 5K cities.
