postDict[surname]=nil

When you use subscript to set nil. It deletes the key if exists. In this case key surname will be removed from dictionary if exists.

To set value as nil, there are certain ways.

postDict.updateValue(nil, forKey: surname)

or

let anyObjectNil : AnyObject? = nil
postDict[surname] = anyObjectNil

or

postDict[surname] = nil as AnyObject?
