Replacing a damaged passport –

On 16th March we got a text saying documents received again, which we found out was because our application was transferred from Liverpool to Glasgow, incase anyone else has had the same. We were due to fly next Friday but pushed back so should be here for our amended dates.

Has anyone had recent experience with Glasgow passport office? Our application was transferred there from Liverpool on 16th March. Has been showing processing since 21st March. Thanks

So finally got through to someone on web chat, our application has been moved the glasgow?! They said it is awaiting standard processing checks which on average are taking 5 weeks but allow up to 10. 10 weeks will be when our holiday has been rescheduled for, I’m praying it’s the 5.

Onto the dreaded processing time now. How long do you think from process to approved based on experience?

So our tracking has been stuck on “we have received your old passport” since 10th March, we’ve called up and been told awaiting examination, so we’ve paid out £300 to move our holiday back a month to be safe. My friend works in the PO and said it’s gone to a queue for potential further documentation. We are so frustrated, this was a replacement passport and have a horrible feeling as my partner was born in Germany it’s flagged even though he’s British! You’d think having parents who fought for the country wouldn’t be used against you

Just spoken to someone who said our application is in the queue for an examiner which could take 4-6 weeks from receiving everything. Going to see if we can push our holiday back now I’m devastated

Hi, first time posting but so stressed! Applied to replace a damaged passport, sent the documents back same day, have called the office today to be told they can’t find the application and someone will call us in 2 days. We are due to fly out on 1st April and starting to panic. Been stuck as below since last week, anyone else had this?
