Lost Passport / Royal Mail

28 replies

Through a series of mishaps I have lost my passport. This should have been delivered to me by Royal Mail, recorded delivery, but all that turned up was an empty envelope.

I need to fly home the day after tomorrow and do not have a driving licence, nor am I anywhere near a passport office.

Does anyone have any advice or bright ideas?

Also I assume I'm going to have to shell out for a new passport, unless anyone knows any different?

Thanks.

Thanks for the additional messages. It sounds reasonably optimistic - I will know later today...

Who are you flying with?

BA.

Well fuck me if they didn't ask to see my ID. I couldn't believe it after all the people (on here, and irl) saying they never got checked.

The woman from BA was all set to reject my work pass, but fortunately made a call and whoever she spoke to must have said it was ok.

Could really have done without the stress.
