Hi Phil and welcome to scope; how are you today? Appeals can take 12 months, even more so as things are atm.

So what did they say on the phone? Has the appeal been acknowledged in writing? Do you have a reference number?

Hi @katho31, unfortunately you will just have to keep trying, I know that's not very helpful, sorry!
