Shouldn’t make a difference as everything is online. Are you able to go down there? Be polite, be patient, but be immovable!
I’ve got 20 days, and I am prepped and ready to get my backside to peterborough at the earliest opportunity.
May 11, 2022 at 10:49 am #14527claloubParticipantI got 5 days left including the weekend it’s becoming really stressful now and not sure if they will see me??
May 11, 2022 at 10:52 am #14528clare_mclaughlinParticipantIn your situation I would be off there pronto in the morning. I fly on the Tuesday and have already booked the day off work on the Friday in case mine isn’t done. Then you can honestly say you have tried everything.
Fingers and toes and everything crossed for you.
May 11, 2022 at 10:54 am #14529claloubParticipantMy wedding is all booked and paid for so is the holiday which can’t be changed and there is no way I could go through With it without my son being there. I have 4 boys and no way can I leave one behind. There are 13 of us booked to fly out

When I asked them on the phone if I can go down I was told they won’t allow people in the building I don’t know if they let you go and speak to anyone.

I have my flight on Saturday and haven’t been contacted as well.I can’t take this stress anymore. I’m tired of phoning and emailing. We shouldn’t be this much stress for just a passport. I wish it was just the money for the flight, but for some people it is more than the money they lose, it will have huge effect on life. 😢😞
May 11, 2022 at 11:43 am #14533hamshaParticipant@claloub they should not be contacting you to say we need more documents at this time. It is too late for this. They should have contacted people much earlier. Mine is saying processing since 20th of March which means my application is just sitting there and nothing is happening.
May 11, 2022 at 11:56 am #14536LleachParticipant@claloub Go down there! They will see people without appointments my husband went there yesterday. Got there for 8am and was seen very quickly.. we unfortunately had no success but it might be different for you and worth a try at this stage. Goodluck
May 11, 2022 at 12:00 pm #14538help00ParticipantI spoke with someone from the liverpool office on the phone just now and they said security will turn people away without appointments. Has anyone visited the Liverpool office recently and been seen in relation to the upgrade service?
May 11, 2022 at 12:03 pm #14542help00ParticipantIs anyone not receiving automatic replies to their emails from liverpool? I was told to send another and haven’t received one for it – worried it hasn’t been received!
May 11, 2022 at 12:10 pm #14545May 11, 2022 at 12:46 pm #14547feckthisParticipantHow long is it taking for old passports to be received after being signed for at Liverpool passport office
May 11, 2022 at 12:49 pm #14548Wheres_My_PassportParticipantHi,
I e-mailed Liverpool yesterday but have had no automatic reply, etc.
Keep checking junk / spam but nothing.
They keep saying they will call back. Feel like I’m stuck in lockdown again as they somehow managed to phone my mobile a couple of days ago & it went straight to voicemail, never rang so I have given them my home home phone number & feel too nervous to go out in case I miss them. Travel next week 🙁
