@SF_England Hi there - thank you but it was actually four steps - option 2, 2, 3 and 1.
@SF_England Son’s SF account is rejecting his Nat insurance number. He hadn’t applied before, system won’t allow proof to be uploaded, no live chat available, and we can’t penetrate your automated phone system. Advice please!
@SF_England Hi Leah. Thank you but when you select options 2, 3 and 1 your phone system takes you to the ‘new DSA applications’ section. We need to contact you about an issue with his national insurance number not being accepted.
@SF_England Hi Claire. Thanks for your message. Sadly none of the options on your automated call handling system relate to “forgotten details and sponsor”. Which of the available options must I select to get to that point?
#Gosport families locked inside PortsmouthCathedral nothing could prepared you.We printed/arranged all media @DHSCgovuk tried to stop us laying it stating it was private property.Thanks @dhblake stepping in as the place was covered in Media. Medics lined inside the cathedral🥲👇🏻
"We're not talking about an argument with a lay person, you're talking about fighting with the government". Bridget Reeves, who's grandmother Elsie Devine died at #GosportHospital reacts to the independent inquiry report. #bbcpm
#Cancer waiting times for 2023 in England were the worst on record. Just 64.1% of patients started treatment within 62 days of cancer being suspected, with 100,000 waiting longer than they should for life-saving care. The waits have worsened every year for the past 11.
This is your chance to give someone who's made a difference the recognition they deserve. 🤩 Nominate them for a BBC Radio Solent Make a Difference Award. See a full list of categories and our terms: bbc.in/makeadifference Entries close at 11pm on 10/03/24
These interior photos from Phil Waterman will bring back memories for many who worked there.
Farewell to The News Centre in #Portsmouth I started my career there, joining as a trainee reporter in 1986 when The Evening News was a six-edition broadsheet selling 110,000 copies every day. The building’s being knocked down to make way for a new bus station.
@AbbieHeadon Yes, and so appropriate for a place which introduced huge technological changes in newspaper production, from hot metal to digital page make-up.
More than 4,000 homes in Portsmouth are at ‘immediate’ risk of flooding. The warning comes in a report which will be considered by the City Council today. It’s being urged to approve new flood defences along a 1.25km-stretch by Ports Creek. I’m #ReportingLive on @BBCRadioSolent
Today should have been Simon's 56th birthday. Forever remembered as the cheeky, happy-go-lucky 18-yr old tragically lost on 12.12.86. A difficult day for his parents who continue to fight for justice with courage & dignity 🙏 Happy heavenly birthday Simon 🎂 you are so missed ❤
A festival of ideas is being launched in #Waterlooville today. It’s hoped that local people will get involved and help the council to draw up a new masterplan for the town. I’m #ReportingLive for @BBCRadioSolent
@HavantBorough Alex Rennie is Leader of @HavantBorough He’s live on @BBCRadioSolent
Wayne Layton is Head of Regeneration at @HavantBorough Council. He’s setting up a drop-in centre at the former Game store in the London Rd precinct: “It’s your chance to have a say in Waterlooville’s future”
Post Office lied and threatened BBC over Horizon whistleblower. Post Office tried to kill our 2015 @BBCPanorama "Trouble At The Post Office". Over my dead body... bbc.co.uk/news/uk-678847…
Britain abolished the slave trade in 1807 and used the @RoyalNavy to enforce the ban. By 1867 Portsmouth-based ships had freed 150,000 Africans. Plans for a new memorial have been welcomed by visitors to the city including Paul Westlake: “An excellent idea. It should happen”
