6 weeks to go nd i havnt renewed passports
any one renewed lately. how long did it take??

Just had to renew Mines just took over a week ....i did fast track at the post office .

Mine, fast track at post office as well,
yet 10days. (must have been photo)

My girlfriend had to have an interview as she had lost her old passport(last time she used it was 21 yrs ago!) and the interview was last Friday and she received her passport on Monday, even though they quoted up to 2 weeks!!

Take you application up to the Durham passport office and you should get it back in a week.
I think you can pay extra to get it straight away but we just handed our forms over and got the passports back 1 week later.

you can get a renewal same day if you goto your nearest office but i am sure it is about 125 pounds last time i checked

I SENT FOR MY GRANDSONS FIRST PASSPORT ON NORMAL POST AND GOT IT IN 1 WEEK!

just had to renew mine,,we live in a village so could not fast track it from our post office,,it took 16 days from sending first class to recieving it back...

Was entering our details on TC website and could not believe my eyes. Sent it off a week ago and go on the 12th Aug so plenty of time yet. I could not imagine the shock of finding out at check in

i go on the 20th of july and i didnt realise that you had to leave six months on it which i dont quite have so yeah big shocker with only a week and a half to go! i have an interview at the glasgow passport office on wednesday and i will get the passport within 4 hours of the interview. fingers crossed!! literally just in the door from getting my photos done for it... what a nightmare!!! hahaha

I do hope that's the case, as my girlfriends passport was posted after her interview, although it only took 2 days mind.

It took 11 days all in for my wifes to be renewed, that included the postage from us and from them

I think they are quicker now , the time guide they give you is a rough guide, yet 5yrs ago for my kids first passport it only took 11 days, the year after for my hubby and me only took 10 days both times with normal postal service.
This year we visit Icmeler in September and we have not yet sent the kids passports away for renewal, 10 weeks till we go and thats plenty time for a postal passport.
