Your form contains php code and is on an .hmtl page. Unless you have specifically modified your server, pages with php need to have a .php extension. Change http://www.simpsys.co.uk/customer_services.html to http://www.simpsys.co.uk/customer_services.php and see if that works any better.

Hi Bregent,
I received your reply thanks.
This is the code you requested for, please see below, the code inserted inside the HTML FORM. I have also posted a copy of the page, to show you how it looks in a live web browser, you will notice that some lines of code is popping out beyond the Logo at the top of the page, I dont know why this is showing, this is a seperate issue anyway.
Thanks for your help.
The code and the html form.

See a 'COPY' of the page - how it looks in a live web browser.

Thanks.
That page is a complete mess 
You've got duplicated form code that is commented out - remove that to make the code easier to read. Next, none of your form fields on your form match the names you are using in the script. They must match EXACTLY. Start by fixing those problems and see if it works.
