After nights of no sleep I found this group and has reassured me a little. Due to financial reasons didn't send forms till mid April. We haven't been abroad for 20 years. Mine and husbands are renewals my 10 year olds is a first. I know im stupid but I went to the post office and asked for recorded. Didn't realise about the check and send. I know stupid but can't change it now. The money was taken 1st of May I received a letter to say they needed a full birth certificate for my son not the one I had sent. I got one the same day sent it recorded again. Phoned the 0300 number and told they would be here in plenty of time. Got to last Wednesday no passports! !!!. I phoned again was told may have to go to Liverpool they were waiting for print. Told would get a 48hr call back. Friday 30th a call came from Durham? ?? Told its with them not Liverpool they aren't ready and I couldnt do a fastrack with it being a childs first. Also they weren't recorded till the 15th of May She couldn't help but would mark down our departure date and someone would call me back next week. She said they would do their best.
My mum said try your MP. I phoned and spoke to the Secretary she was lovely and said they would try and help. They have others in the same boat. I have to work all week but luckily my boss will allow me to go to Durham if I need.
Can I have some honest advise?. First of all the best thing to do tomorrow. I have the reg numbers for them. Do I keep ringing or do I wait for MP?. I'm at breaking point. Ive been up all night cant eat and feel sick.
Do you lovely people think I have any chance? Xx
