TO must be new for IOS 10. I'm using IOS 9, NOT A beta TESTER. Siri JUST TELLS ME HOW TO FIND THE BATTERY LEVEL INSTEAD OF READING IT.

I usually do that and have had no problems.

If you put it in Company Name SIRI won't find it, I know, it is unbelievably stupid that SIRI won't search the company field, but that is the way it is. Try putting "Pizza Hut" in the last name field as fwelland all should be as you expect. I run into a situation often where I ask, for example, "Call BC Liquor Store" or "Call Sears". These are just examples of businesses which exist in many towns/cities. I live in a small town in northern British Columbia and the next towns are about an hour away and the next larger cities are 2 and 4 hours away, respectively. So, I ask to call the business name and SIRI tells me it, for example, found "BC Liquor Store" in Houston, Terrace, Prince Rupert etc. all of these are from 40 to 250 miles away and it will finally come to the liquor store that is half a mile from my house after listing 6 or 8 others first which are all over the place. If the store is only in my town it has no problems finding it and it's yet another example of how poorly SIRI performs in certain situations where it should work flawlessly. One thing I just discovered and this must be new (I am running iOS 10 Beta) is that I can finally ask "What is the battery level" and SIRI will actually answer and give me the battery percentage. Maybe some who use iOS 9 can try this and see if it is simply a SIRI upgrade that works in all iOS versions or if it is new in iOS 10.

However, when I tell Siri to call Pizza Hutt, she appears to look for Pizza Hutts on the web. I say this because instead of just calling the Pizza Hutt that is in my contacts, she gives me suggestions of places near by. Is there any way I can fix this?
