Ah you’re right Jespop30, it must be the old one as it seems very strange for it to Royal Mail. Got my hopes up there!!
YAY! Glad it’s approved! I’m sure it’ll be here in no time, all limbs crossed for you!
Djbdane great news – thanks for the timeframe that does help x
How strange! Got a text to say Royal Mail will deliver my passport, but HM website still says “approved”
Did this happen for anyone else?
Jespop did they sort themselves out yet for you? X
Jespop30 – absolutely! Hope the call goes well, let us know how it goes 🤞
Shocking this whole system! ☹️
Jespop30 – that’s awful! You’d think there’d be some flexibility at least, given it’s not your fault at all 🙁
Yeah you’re right, the least they could do is be honest about the timelines changing suddenly from 3 weeks to 10! So out of order.
Fingers and toes are crossed for you hun 🙁 xx
Jespop30 – not your fault at all! It’s awful what we have to go through, the stress and logistics 🙁
Is there a deadline / latest to when you can change your booking? (Ours was 7 days so we waited until then but asked them for an estimation)
Djbane- yeah think you’re right, it’s just a queue and then TNT just taking what they can.
Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s pot luck at this stage too 😂 I’ve lost all faith!
Jespop30 – they do keep going on about this “10 week service agreement” but the reality is they changed their website! Grr!
Hopefully flagging it helps your case. They don’t flag for everyone so it just mean something! 🙂 xThat’s not good! They should log it separately instead of cause us more stress (I’m sure they have it – just being awful at communication as always!)
Baz8790 – hope it gets printed asap! I’ve seen some stay at approved for a week or two, and others be printed a few days later! Hope yours is approved asap for your holiday! Fingers crossed.
Jespop30 – that still gives you 2 weeks so fingers crossed it gets sorted asap Monday! From when I spoke to them, if it goes over 10 weeks they start pushing too so they should. If not I’ll call and chase on your behalf too hun x Yes fingers crossed it gets printed next week! This stress is awful!
@all – Processing to approved for me took 2.5 weeks. I’ve heard it can take 14-21 days but there’s no rule to it – seems to be pot luck. If you call and ask if it’s been assigned an examiner that helps to get an idea sometimes (although it can stage in examiner stage for a while!!)
Jespop30 – 10 weeks is such a joke! I’m glad they’ve put an alert on your application, that should speed things up. Fingers are crossed for you. Hopefully you’ll get some good news as soon as possible!
What’s your deadline? Xx
Jespop30 – mine just got “approved” yesterday but it’s not printed or sent yet :S how about you?
Photo rejection: I took mine myself, and it was rejected because there was a bit of hair covering my forehead (side parting) – I then went to a photo booth and got a digital code – made sure my hair was pulled back.
Jespop30 – I know right! They just decided to change the times on the website with no warning / processing the ones that came first!! Fingers crossed
Pavilion89 – 🙁 Processing is a strange one, mine was processing for just over 2 weeks until they reviewed it (rejected photo). Might be worth checking with your provider / airline the latest date to move your holiday if you need to. That way you have a plan B x
Jespop30 – 30 days is a joke 🙁 It’s so unfair the way they manage this process.
Magnic- that’s great news for you!!! Woo!
