Known issues
A common issue is the requirement for an advance email appointment for in-person visits. Walk-ins are usually not accommodated, so it's crucial to schedule your visit ahead of time. To resolve this, send an email to arrange your appointment and wait for confirmation. Additionally, while the phone line is available six days a week, email contact is often preferred for most queries. This can help ensure a quicker response and more efficient handling of your request.
