I've been trying to locate an inspector using the postcode function on this here website. It asks for the first part of a postcode but returns no results.
Is it faulty or must the inspector be in exactly the same postcode as the search (what are the odds of that?)? If so, the ability to select a range ie, within 25 miles would be useful.
Yes, I can trawl through the list of inspectors (all 360 of them) but that's not very efficient. On the upside I suppose I'm only having to do so once every few years.
There is a search-by-map map function but when I select that all I see is a blank screen. There is a section asking for a postcode and range but even when this is filled in the page remains blank, no map.
Is it the site, my laptop, me or a combination?

Hi Paul
We'll look at that during the next review. Thanks for highlighting it.

Thanks Steve.
Like I said, might be a fault at my end. As to finding an inspector I think I'm all fixed up (I've now checked the details of every inspector on the list ).

Paul, you did spot, didn't you, that it says "You should only enter the first (alpha) part of the postcode (e.g. NN or B) without a number." ? (my bold)
If you do this, it works; if you took "the first part of the postcode" to what it normally means and put the number in as well, then it doesn't!
The map function is, however, a bit flakey...

I did what any sensible person would do and typed in the letters AND the number!
