I’m afraid there isn’t much of a glimmer for you.
My child’s renewal went in on 27th Jan. They lost a document and eventually managed to approve on 18th March.
Not printed till yesterday 26th and no sign of it being handed to TNT yet. The last call I had – and there have been many – warned that TNT are taking 5 working days to collect from them, and then whatever it takes to reach your door.
We travel on Friday and I’ve already accepted that some are going and others will be staying behind.
