Shamelessly posting for traffic - Portugal passenger locator form

22 replies

BeanCalledPickle · 02/10/2021 22:18

Hi, sorry to clog the board! Travelling to Lisbon imminently. Trying to complete the passenger locator form. It will simply not accept my phone number! It’s the section on the form as attached. It won’t accept +44 or 0044 or 044 and then won’t accept my phone number with or without the 0 at the beginning. What does it want from me?!? Can someone help? And does anyone know what happens if I don’t fill in the blasted form?!?

Just 44?

FellInLoveWithABanana · 02/10/2021 22:34

Have you selected your country first?

BeanCalledPickle · 02/10/2021 22:40

It won’t accept just 44 and there is no way of selecting country. The form has all my details, so if already knows I’m uk.

It's +44 and your mobile number including the 0

VeniVidiWeeWee · 02/10/2021 22:46

You tube suggests

Ex: +44

I hope this helps.

Having just got back from Lanzarote these forms are a pain.

BeanCalledPickle · 02/10/2021 22:49

None of these work. I’m getting really stressed now! What happens if I can’t make it work?

Are you sure you're phone number is right? If it's auto filling it, it might have added an extra zero, or added a space and missed off a number?

Where are you? Can you log on using a PC? I filled this in a couple of weeks ago and use +44 which worked fine on the PC.

I did it on mobile and it worked no bother.

BeanCalledPickle · 02/10/2021 22:54

Can someone tell me what happens if I can’t do it?

You have to have it to be allowed onto the plane.

Clear your browser history and try again

Hairbrush123 · 02/10/2021 22:58

Who are you flying with? I had a nightmare trying to upload my forms and ended up going to the BA counter at Heathrow the night before my flight and they did it for me. Is there a way you could visit the airport the night before and they could maybe help? If not, try another browser maybe

ozymandiusking · 02/10/2021 23:07

Have you tried 44 (not the first 0 of your number) then the rest of your number eg. 44 121212121 pretty sure you don't need the plus sign.

VeniVidiWeeWee · 02/10/2021 23:09

Apologies.

Try:

First field

ex: +44

Second field

ex: 123456

JayAlfredPrufrock · 02/10/2021 23:13

The whole thing is a fucking farce.

Theythinkitsalloveritisnow · 02/10/2021 23:18

When I went to Portugal in July a lot of people had paper copies. You could get one and fill it in at the airport too. I was actually one of only a few people with it on their phone.

ozymandiusking · 02/10/2021 23:21

I'm sorry I think I made a mistake in my previous post. You need a zero in front of the 44 and not the zero in front of your mobile number.

LumpyandBumps · 02/10/2021 23:28

I completed these forms a few weeks ago, but unfortunately can no longer access them.
I think I put the + and my number excluding the leading zero.
Eg if your number is 0781111111
You would put + 781111111
I hope you manage to do it. I am sure the + needs to be used.

FluffyBooBoo · 03/10/2021 20:30

Did you get it done in the end?

BeanCalledPickle · 14/10/2021 16:41

Had to do it on another browser but eventually got it working!
