Rejected petition Techies need to differentiate ref: international post codes

More details

In al walks of - cyber - life when asked for Post Code, invariably if a non-UK one has to be entered (because you live out of the UK) the 'system' won't recognise it. Case in point, I just signed an e-Petition ref: depriving convicted rioters of their benefits. It allowed for living in a countr that was not the UK but refused to recognize a different 'type' of post code.
