VWFS not accepting claims online

Having belatedly realised I may have a claim I read through the info on the VWFS website and filled in the initial claim form I am just getting this service is unavailable. From what I have read in theory they have a duty to contact any eligible customers regardless of whether they have a claim but still would feel more comfortable registering myself. Have they closed the form in light of yesterdays announcement (or perhaps the site was overwhelmed). I presume I can still e-mail them directly using one of Martin's templates.
