When I eventually got up and mentioned the frequency of the issue, they offered to move me to a vacant seat, but at that point there were just 3 hours remaining and I was well entrenched in my pod. The crew were excellent, but let's just say that my back has seen better days. I wasn't given a compensation form - didn't occur to me to ask for one on board. What's the best avenue to write in a complaint?
The online complaint form is probably best avenue now.

Given that you were given an alternative (moving to another J seat) and declined, you might not get any compensation, but YMMV.
