Passports

You cant have the Blue one yet until Brexit is delivered. Dont worry though as its possible that one might have expired again by then.

My dog's passport is blue - would that suit you better Tony?

It doesn't have a picture so you should be OK but is your rabies vaccination current?

Oh yes, you would need the microchip embedded but they do tell me it's not too painful and it would give you the colour you seem to crave.....

BUT I do agree you have received excellent service and that is to be commended

On Rip of Britain this morning that the passport with the chip near the rear can possibly fail. The Government are claiming that the failure is due to mishandling and refusing to replace under the warranty.

Ray they were never Black.The crap quality of the original passports allowed the blue dye to fade leaving a blackish base colour to come through.

Whaaat You mean we paid top dollar for crap. I'm gonna see if I can get my money back.
At least my earlier and current EU ones haven't faded.

Ray.

I'd write to Jacob (who seems to be running the UK) and complain Tony. After all the publicity if anyone sees the colour and date they will think you are making a protest.

Yes but the colour of the new true blue ones won't fade, if they are being made by a German company.

>>> Any other forum have such interesting repartee??? No I thought not!

This is just one of 20 ongoing threads Viv.

Yes, I've been a bit distracted - see my new post. I've also had a dabble in 'other' forums and whilst it's great, and encouraging, to hear posters giving support to forumites who've experienced bad luck and ill-health, it does get a bit tedious when it runs to 20 pages.

Very interesting.

Back on topic:-
Two online applications completed on Friday 26 Jan ,,,, passports received on Thursday 1 Feb 2018.
5 working days...amazing:wink2:

Mine and Karen's run out in April, better get it in soon before the summer rush.

Just started the 'easy' passport renewal service??
Looking online to renew a UK passport while in France it says must have a recognisable photo with a 'code'. Describes in great detail about the code. But of course this is step one and no code on my new photos.
Eight bleedin euros and six perfectly good (imho) photos but no code.

Going well so far. It might take the 6 months remaining on my passport to comply with this 'simple' system.

Apparently you can get a smartphone app that will provide a code, per google.
