Fionboard Posted August 31, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Don't know if things are improving - or I am just lucky. Applied online one week ago and passport arrived in post today! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Fountain Posted August 31, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) One of our party due to travel on 2/10 had just over 3 months left on passport. Tried for ages to get an appointment for a fast track (1 week) passport. Eventually got an appointment in Belfast. She lives just a few miles from Liverpool passport office. She travelled on the ferry to Belfast for her appointment last Thursday. Passport arrived Saturday.

Trevor Fountain Posted August 31, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Just now, Fionboard said: I am lucky then! Maybe not. Perhaps things are better than a couple of months back, but it was just too much of a risk to apply in the normal manner just a few weeks before travelling.

Same for me. That was back in February. It only cost a few pounds extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplesea Posted August 31, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I reapplied for mine online last October and got it back in eight days, might have been less if I had gone to the post office the same day to return the old one instead of two days later!

Thejuggler Posted September 1, 2022 #9 Share Posted September 1, 2022 We applied in April for daughter's first adult passpprt and it was back in a couple of weeks, this was supposedly at a time when there was a ten week wait time. Some offices may have had problems, but I do know numerous problems were caused by applicants not applying properly, not sending correct documents, having photos rejected etc, but none of that is new.
