As documented in the draft this is known to be specifically incompatible 
with wildcards.

In the NICC specifcation for the UK Central Numbering Database wildcards 
are not used at intermediate nodes (i.e, to represent number blocks). They 
are only used at leaf-nodes, to support over-dialling (i.e. sending too 
many digits).
