    Leave it blank then, or put in a fake number, or even put their own number in.
    There is a whole series of fake numbers reserved for use in the TV and films industry if you want to use one of them. Scroll down the page from this link and pick one if you wish.

    Lol. Put their number in. Gone now anyway. Pressed "Submit Appeal" button changed colour, no confirmation it's sent or received? I wonder if they'll try ringing tomorrow...themselves!  :D

    Whipsnade Zoo (other zoos are available - at the moment!), Billy Smart's Circus, your local police station, Debt Recovery Plus, Gladstone Solicitors, BWL Legal, DCBL, the BPA, the IPC, anyone you dislike intently .....  you could have given them any of those.  You need to be innovative and think outside of your box!  You won't be deported for that!
    Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .

    I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

    All ready to go but the 0333 8888888 number can't be accepted not even N/A.
    Just make something up as a phone number.  You don't need us to tell you this stuff.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
    CLICK at the top or bottom of any page where it says:

    You were told what you needed to do: not give your own number. Nothing else needed any input from us. Simplest task possible there. We're a small group of regulars, doing this for free, and we need you to take some logical actions yourself. 
  • Wow! so aggressive? If I were to make an error, you'd blame me for that too! Can't win can I?
