Bing maps API

Hello,


I am wanting to use the Bing maps API to calculate travel distance between two postcodes in the United Kingdom. I only have the first part of the postcode.  An exampe of some postcodes are below. The left hand address is waypoint 1 and the second is waypoint 2

After invoking the custom function that calls on the API I get the following

reidnmorrison_1-1681831134953.png

Whilst this works most of the time, there are is the odd postcode that throws up an error (in the example above EX11 returns an error whereas EX10 is fine). Does anyone have an explaination for this and any potential solutions?

 

Thanks in advance
