When I passed my full licence exam 6 years, I tried requesting the callsign M0EYP which wasn’t available and then tried applying for M5EYP which wasn’t available due to Ofcom not issuing M5 callsigns, in the end I let Ofcom choose my campaign and got M0HGY. Had I have know back then I could have contacted Ofcom to request the callsign M5EYP, I probably may have done this.
