Ian,
Agreed, not just London-based issues.
Call centre wise, when I first called (150, from the handset) I was put through to an offshore call centre. The following time I was put through to a UK call centre, with a delightful-sounding Scottish lass, who was very helpful. I mentioned that she had been far more helpful than the offshore call centre, and she said that if I call again and was connected to the offshore one, if I asked I could be transferred to a UK-based one. Her words were "It's your right to have this happen" (whcih struck me as an odd thing to say.)
So, call 'em up and ask nicely!
Keep us posted. I hope you get to the solution (and aren't forced to be without your device for ages. Apparently mine could be gone for up to a month ... )
Oli.
