How long to deliver? (TNT tracking??)

[devin]

Hi,

This forum and particularly this post has helped me a lot. So I decided to post my experience to help others too.

Like many of you I have been worried about the passport arriving on time.

I received an email telling me the passport has been printed on the 18th March 2022 evening and a text the following morning with the same update.

Like others I started checking on TNT website TNT Tracking
I did not receive an email from them.

My delivery appeared on the website this afternoon , 23rd March with a scheduled delivery for 25th March

I was allowed to move the delivery a day forward, which I did. I am hoping it gets delivered as planned tomorrow.

All the best everyone

I have also received a printed update today with a delivery date for Friday 25th March. How accurate are their delivery dates? We fly next Wednesday and I’m so worried!

I would imagine you’ll be fine – the delivery dates seem solid at the moment from what I can see on the forum from other posts.

You should be fine.

I just received mine. I think TNT are doing very well once they pick the passports up by the looks of it

Found this a really helpful forum and thread too…

From reading other stories, it does sound like the amount of time it takes to jump from one step to the next is pretty varied/random – for what it’s worth, here’s my experience:

Passport printed 12:34pm on 23 March 2022
Application approved 11:37am on 17 March 2022
Documents received 8:18am on 14 March 2022
Application received 6:23pm on 24 February 2022
Identity details received 6:23pm on 24 February 2022
Email sent to person confirming your identity 10:29am on 24 February 2022
Ask someone to confirm your identity 4:36pm on 22 February 2022
Application submitted 4:36pm on 22 February 2022

And from being printed yesterday, it arrived today (24th) around 1.30pm.

The above is for one of my kids – the other application which was completed at the same time got printed a day later and now is apparently arriving on Saturday according to TNT.

Seems TNT are doing okay with delivering new passports. My son’s was printed yesterday at 7.02pm, can’t track yet, but hopefully soon.

@Traggles, did you use the fast track service? Wondering if those receiving their passports a couple of days after the ‘printed’ notification are fast tracks? Thanks.

[traggles]

In my case, no fast track – printed on Weds and arrived Thursday for one and printed on Thursday/arriving Saturday for the other, so it’s pretty random.

[Womble]

Did you all get tracking details before it arrived. Printed Monday and nothing yet…..

Hi Womble. I got the printed message on Tuesday 22nd at 4am, and it started tracking yesterday evening and delivery is booked for today.
I was checking the TNT tracker like a mad woman and saw it on there, I never (and still haven’t) received a message or E-mail from TNT. So just keep tracking and hopefully it will show up soon!

I’m still waiting tracking as well!

Passport printed Tues 22/3 at 6am and still not showing on TNT (using PEX reference). Less than a week until due to fly now and need to know by Tuesday so can cancel things with 48hr notice for no penalty – going mad!

Hi all I used the post office paper check and send. The refrence number on the form only has 9 digits unlike the online application which has 10 digits. I cant seem to get any tracking info at all on the TNT site does anybody know if it will work with the 9 digit refrence number. The application was aproved 3 days ago.. Recieved a txt sayin your passport will be with you in a few days. But cannot track it at all.

thanks

Hi All, mine was an online adult renewal and passport arrived this morning with zero comms from TNT and no update from HMPO to say it had been sent after being printed yesterday.
I did get a text and email yesterday advising TNT would be in touch with tracking details once collected but nothing at all from them.

Full timeline:
Passport Received approx 11am 25th March
Passport printed 10:19am on 24 March 2022
Application approved 6:49pm on 17 March 2022
Documents received 1:37pm on 15 March 2022
Application received 7:31pm on 1 March 2022
Application submitted7:31pm on 1 March 2022

Hopefully this helps and anyone waiting hopefully you’ll get your passports soon.

Hi Darren may i ask did you have to sign for it or was it just posted through the letter box.
thanks

[Darren]

Hi Charlieh34,

I was at work but after checking with my better half it was just posted through the door. Normal mail had been delivered earlier so not part of that nor just standard Royal Mail.

I have tried to log into TNT tracking using my application number but it doesn’t show any tracking at all.

I have also tried to check Royal Mail Tracking and can’t get any info through that either.
