It is unfortunate that Phillips does not provide any provision for feedback or questions. The ONLY contact provided is for "Free Case Review". And, since it is a form, and NOT email, you don't get a copy of your own information that you submit. That's why I never use these kind of "forms", which are convenient for the company, but ignore the documentation needs of the sender.
