I'd be ringing them up and giving them absolute hell if I was you, in fact, apparently, so it's rumoured like, I think I probably qualify for being of the right material to ring 'em up for you. eveilgrin:

What do you think! I had to make about six phone calls, during the last one I ended up asking to speak to supervisor and then their supervisor etc. After 20 mins I ended up having a shouting match with someone and after that never had another call.
