    HOW A PPC APPEALS PROCESS WORKS:

    PPC Chimp No. 1 opens mail. Gathers together all the appeals letters, passes them across desk in tin hut in dodgy scrapyard full of stolen war memorial plaques and cut and shut cars to PPC Chimp No. 2. PPC Chimp No. 2 takes each letter, screws it into a ball and lobs it all the way across the hut into the waste bin. He never misses, because hes had so much practice. He can drop an appeals letter into a six inch waste bin at 200 yards.

    He then opens his standard 'Appeal Refused' template letter, prints of 50 copies and posts a copy back to each letter writer.

    Don't forget the 'debt collection' and 'solicitor' desks where the little puppies are shouting 'Can I send a letter now, Can I? Me Me Me Me Me.

    Which is probably a fairly accurate description of what goes on; which makes it even more tragic that such a substantial number of people actually believe the whole scam process is real.

    Although fewer than before, owing to the greed of certain PPCs; resulting in getting the scam highlighted in the National Media with inane court cases.....
