Ric Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 you need to goto the passport office in liverpool and it costs a fortune for a on the spot passport, have you had one before? If you are getting you're first one you cant get one on the spot so you will not get one in 2 weeks unfortuantly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 you can go to a sorting office and pay a few quid to get it done.only one i know of is in peterboro as iv been there a few times with the army to get it done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 takes about 2-3 weeks if you wait for it to be sent and same day if you go to any local passport office but cost alot more by the way the photos are a pain these days and make sure you have the photos taken by an approved passport office photographer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feakins Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Goto the passport office website, they do the usual slow service, or you can do same day passport for about £100 or 1 week service probably a bit cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 If it isn't your first passport Rob, you can go to Liverpool and get one sorted within a day. Let me know how you get on on the website/phone. If you want I could give you a lift to the passport office and drop you off as parking can miles away and be a PITA. I was planning to have a day in Liverpool next week sometime...... H.

RobSheffield Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 To go to Liverpool is £108, so im not doing that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burna Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 You any nearer to sorting a passport Rob? Looking forward to sinking some beers with you mate Lol Love the quote by the way, I was scared you were going to faint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 Im afraid Burna it wont be happening, my own stupid fault for letting my passport expire IF i went it would be cash and time i could be spending on the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 When going to a passport office - MAKE AN APPOINTMENT! Otherwise you're stood there for a long time. It's usually done in 2-3 hours then you can collect. We did ours in Liverpool and went shopping. No drama. I don't recall it being any more expensive either?

The Restorer Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Have a look at the passport office website. It all depends on wether it's your first time etc... Passport Office Index Moaeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah, i called the passport helpline, they said book it, then turn up a couple of hours early! They also said its definately £108. Apparently the slow service is £96, and in no way guaranteed to arrive on time, so it would be a big waste. Maybe if i had 3 weeks to go i would risk it!

toyotasuprauk Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Passports are so expensive. I just renewed and mine was £77 for the normal service but it did come in about 10 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
