I definitely think when I spoke to them they worried me into agreeing to upgrade. It was my own fault not being more organised but they do have people over a barrel really - easy way to increase income!
No but I'm in the upgrade queue! Will get a call on Monday or Tuesday and it'll be printed within 4 hours and posted within 24 so I should have them in my hands Thursday at the very latest!
I got my daughters renewal passport through the door this morning. It was sent 3 weeks ago last Monday and I received a text to say they had it exactly 3 weeks ago today.
The papers are making a right mountain out of a molehill and causing people to panic. It has been the case for as long as I can remember that unless you absolutely have to then you don't send off a passport application during May and June. They are always behind because the main time people go away is May through to Sept.
Not really rach. People are waiting 6-8 weeks which is double the time they quote. Durham office is really behind but liverpool and Peterborough aren't as bad. The inconsistencies are really unfair.
I've rang and finally got through and because I don't have the reference number they can't tell me but he's put in for me to have a call back from Durham but that is within 48 working hours which he said end of day Monday! He did ask if I knew if the counter signer has been contacted which I don't know but have just messaged my OH to find out if they have, least that will tell me I guess if it's actually been looked at or not!
3 weeks tomorrow for me so will try and track it. We have decided to stay in the uk this year so I don't need it in a rush anymore but will update how long it take when it arrives
Mines 4 weeks today and I'm waiting for a call back from the upgrade team, I travel a week 2moro! I'm getting nowhere though cause i don't have the application number! I don't think we're going to get it in time
