@SF_England Hi there - thank you but it was actually four steps - option 2, 2, 3 and 1.

@dhblake The number is 0300 100 0607- Option 2 is checking the progress of your applicaiton/ existing applications, option 3 is resetting your password and then option 1 is for the sponsors. There isn't a specific option for NI numbers so this would be a way to speak with someone 1/2

@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?

@dhblake Hi there, he will need to call us on 0300 100 0607 and press the option for forgotten details and sponsor. He will then be able to speak to an advisor who can help him. Thanks, Claire

#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.

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 ❤

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”
