@Rosylea123 we received a letter saying they’ve received our forms and it was scan on such date

Krys83 · 16/11/2023 21:58

@Rosylea123 when I called to make sure they received my forms back in September they told me the date it was scanned.

Watso2408 · 16/11/2023 21:58

@Vikz37 ah, not real far from me then. Congrats. I hope I'm not too long now.

Fingers crossed its funny how loads of 27/7 have been awarded but no dates like yours which is so close. Could be worth ringing for an update ypu never know you might of already been awarded.

@Bambi91 are you in the Newcastle area by any chance if you don't mind me asking? It seems to be up that way they are doing these dates. I'm 25/7 but Yorkshire. Not news yet.

I'm manchester and was awarded Tuesday scan date was 27/7.

crazytimes20 · 16/11/2023 21:06

@Krys83 yeah, I'm going to ring around 17.5 wks I think. Seen a few be awarded after our date many of those are from the same area so not sure if that means out. Just want it over with. Fed up of waiting now.

MammyAng84 · 16/11/2023 20:53

I think I’m just gonna leave everything for at least a week so I’ll b nearly 18 weeks by then as it’s slowly taking over my brain the closer I get & im starting to think it will be a decline & I’ll need to fight an mr :(
