Did they offer it or did you ask for it? It is lovely to see that the embassy itself understands this! as told you guys, when i we...
After i came to UK, i went to German Embassy to complain.. They were really helpful and accept my complain and also give me a letter which is explain rules for border guards just in case.

Just to those following this topic, I got the passport back from UKBA Liverpool office today. It took three days and five days with delivery. My only concern is that my original PR was stamped 14 September 2011 while the new one (old one was cancelled) is dated 3 November 2011. Does this mean my ye...

Where are you going on holidays? If you are going back to your home country, a minor error on your residence card wont matter to them. You should get back into the UK without problems and be able to get on a plane. Is there anything else wrong with your vignette? I wanna fly to South Africa (home c...

These are good questions. Why don't you phone them and ask? With regards to your forthcoming holiday, you could ask them to issue your revised PR on a free-standing document without you sending the passport back. I would love to ask them but I have to wait until Monday (won't have a nice weekend) a...
