Depends on how much of a reprobate you are.

Strange how the f*ck up is, as ever, someone else's.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

If you pay a little extra at the post office they will check it for errors. They usually take 2 weeks to process.

If you need it quickly go make an appointment with the passport office. You pay more but can get it the same day

Which is exactly who messed up for starters, along with a signaturee and the Passport office saying that me and my brother definetly don't need interviews. We do.

However, going absolutely ape sh!te at the office got us an interview spot Monday with a passport in 8-10 days should the interview go OK. :grin:

Nope, will be in time. The actual main place is a total crap excuse for a company. Not willing to help at all, thinking that they've got you by the bollocks. As did the Peterborough branch until you go ape, then three phone calls back within 2 hours and all is sorted.  :cool:
