Postal address (required for the BBC complaints API)

The BBC's complaints API requires a postal address. This complaint goes only to the BBC, so the fields below are required; without them the BBC won't accept the submission. We pass them straight to the BBC's official complaints API; we don't store them. Outside the UK? Choose your location below and we'll only ask for the fields the BBC needs (no postcode or phone).

Standard UK format, e.g. NW11 8DE. Spaces optional, case insensitive.

We'll send a 6-digit code to verify your email before proceeding.
