Mailchimp Integration improvements

Paul
It would be useful to have certain data fields mapped to improve the functionality of MailChimp - this is an example of the data populated via sign-up at the point of purchase (we seem to have a bug with purchase data, which we have raised separately with the helpdesk) - the address data is populating in on data field of "Address". It is also defaulting to the USA, we only operate in the UK. It would be better for address data fields to be mapped individually to "Address 1", "Address 2", "City", "County", "Country" and "Postcode" so that we can segment based on locality to stores etc.

I can't believe how many posts there are about Mailchimp, some of them going back as far as 2019, which really points to the fact that the integration and the way email data is handled requires a major improvement.
It's all very well for CL to be advertising seamless Mailchimp integration but the reality is, is that it doesn't work very well and costs a fortune. I have been trying to get somewhere with Customer Support with both CL and Mailchimp but not getting very far.
I have created a request about this and would suggest that you put your weight behind it a vote on it so we can get these much needed improvements underway.

It seems there is not a full mail chimp integration, there are some gaps in the customer data that do not seem to be sent to MailChimp which would be useful in being able to utilise mailchimp workflows even more.
- Last Purchase
- Total Sales
- Total Visits
- Last Purchase Location
- Account opened
In addition to mapping address data in a useable format.

Could I add fix the integration that allows us to include various products into the emails, that would be ace.
And... a way to automate emails for customers that still have points so we can send out some better looking newsletter reminders to customers.
