Will Siri accept UK postcodes?

Just tried and it doesn't seem to. Asked a couple of times and it seemed to go off in a sulk!

It sometimes works for me, but only ever to the the 4th/5th character - and then it seems random as to whether it works for one postcode or another.

Typing it in works fine.

Waze once again ticks all of the above boxes and the routing reactions/algorithms are way better, IMO. I often talk to mine six times a day and it rarely gets it wrong.
