  1. I should add that the person who answered the phone (after a couple more minutes waiting) could not have been more helpful.

  2. I phoned up a number of times and gave up after waiting 20-30 minutes. When I got through eventually after being on the line for 40 minutes I spokes the most unhelpful of chaps. Not his fault though, being asked to handle the issues that ordinary people hit when they try and handle bureaucrateese with deadlines looming with extremely draconian punishments and who are at the end of the tether after they've tried umpteen times to get through.
