iPhone not Finding address or correct address

[Vexander]

Hello all,

I just got my first iPhone yesterdat, the iPhone 4s, very happy I am .

I also have an iPad 2 both have a similar issue.

In my contact card I have my home address as
84 Xxxxxx Yyyy
Beacon Bay
East London
5241
South Africa

When I search for this address in maps, the maps more or less finds my address, albeit about 2 km out. However when I click the address on my address card it just slaps a pin in the middle of East London, and does the same for my work address, and any other address I have tried.

When I add a point to a map and try add that to my contact, all that comes up is Eastern Cape, East London.

This leaves me with two problems
1 When I Ask siri what is the weather for tomorrow, I am told, there is no weather for eastern cape, south Africa, despite the fact that the weather app is picking up my location.
2. When I tell Siri, remind me to xxx when I arrive at home, I am told Siri does not know where my home is.

Please help me ASAP, cause that feature is something I have been looking forward to, since I saw the ads.

Thanx

I know that the GPS search features are not enabled for South Africa as yet to use with Siri..

Does your Map's app pick up your correct location?

When I ask Siri, "Take me Home", she says she can't provide maps and directions in South Africa.

So I am thinking it is Siri and not your location.

Yeah that's what I was saying, Siri GPS is not active in SA atm
