    Advanced Edit indeed works for editing the title :beer:

    Is there a preference for posting appeals versus using the online form on the PPC website? Was thinking post it with proof of postage but the direct contact form on the website looks more straightforward (aside from the fact they ask for personal details on the online form that one would obviously not hand over!)

    And your experience first hand of this company is what ?


    Not secrecy facts - they use posts from OPs on MSE against them and identify them - they also use the precise observation timings down to the second for identification

    I have no experience of this company, my point is that by replacing two letters with asterisks, you are fooling no-one.

    Withholding information may in certain instances prevent the PPC from identifying posters, but in other cases it may well be counter-productive.

    Let us take as one example the fact that we are on to the need for vat invoices in certain cases, the fact that the BPA know that we know could well ensure that PPCs are scrupulous in their accounting to HMRC lest we grass them up.

    I would hope that I have given nothing away here to identify myself to the PPC in question!

    Will keep you posted as to the result of this.

    Cheers
