The string '' is not a valid AllXsd value.

[EDN Admin]

Hi,
I am consuming DHL Tracking service through an WCF rest client. I have generated proxy class through XSD provided by DHL.
But some time in while deserializing response I get error "The string is not a valid AllXsd value."
I am attaching 2 XML one that get processed and other that give error. I am not able to figure out why this is happning.
XML working fine:
