Comments

The Isle of Man Government still owns the Isle of Man Post Office. Postcode searches require a registered email address (free) and rate limited to 10 searches per day.

The government IT department sells the postcode/geolocation dataset to a very small customer base of couriers, dairy co-operative doorstep milk delivery service, Tesco, etc.

An IT services company (https://www.afd.co.uk/) also resell geolocation datasets and data cleansing services.
