You can ring and make a formal complaint. You have already told them Preston is too far. Also contact your MP and copy him/her into a formal written complaint.
Please do not post in capitals, it causes problems for members who use screen readers.
In addition to the advice already given, you are not required to accept an appointment where you have not received seven days written notice of the date.
