It is each individual's choice as to what they do. Wait and be arrested in country, dragged out of your bed at 5 in the morning to receive your refusal when you get arrested, driven off with whatever you can gather in a few minutes and then spend a minimum of three days in a detention centre then get removed. The ban will still be ten years for use of deception.
OR
Contact UKVI having put your affairs in order.
Got a ticket to where you want to go at a time you want to leave. Get yourself down to the airport in your own time. No escorts pushing you through the airport or being treated like some big time criminal. You check in by yourself, minimum fuss like a normal passenger. No escort to the plane and just a little chat with someone after security to pick up your documents.
You can't avoid the ban by going voluntarily as the deception employed is a fact of the matter.
You might and I stress might have a better chance of arguing that the ban should not apply as you have withdrawn the application. But don't be surprised if it is still imposed because you can't escape the issue of a false test result.
You might not like the ban but if it applies it applies and you are not going to get a court to see otherwise. JR's on the refusal and ban are being thrown out time after time.
You will not find one successful appeal post on this site in relation to ETS refusals. You will see many posts about people being arrested and removed.
For anyone thinking about their options - better to make your own choices rather than someone else making them for you.
