Shocking treatment. I would urge you to write to your MP and let ms know detailed facts and ask him to intervene!Capofficer wrote: It's so unfortunate and unbelievable lazy, incompetent asses I would say. My application was made online initially. Since I sent my declared form and documents through special delivery to GLasgow office, I could see they'd received them very next day. I did not hear anything for 4 weeks and online status kept showing "Declaration form received application in progress" and I was waiting for a letter to book an interview date but to my surprise in 5th week a letter came along with new application form and saying I need to fill it up again and send it back to Pitersborough office again ith new signatory form and all which I did. I had to fill up grand parents related dates which they did not have in online application system, I don't know what was the problem with my application at first place. Now I received a text message saying my application has been received and will take upto further 6 weeks where as my online status says "please contact us". I called up passport service all they can do is write an email and call me in next 1working days.i waited and waited no one called. Since my online status says to contact these losers I tried my luck to call them in 0845 number given by a person who wrote me a letter. I remained on hold more than half an hour. I dialled at 4.20 pm and automatically asked me to hold .....waited till 5.05 nobody answered. Dialled again and it goes office is closed. What are these losers, incompetent and unprofessional lazy asses trying to do? Are they gonna take further 6 weeks after they wasted 5 weeks already? I am so frustrated, my days are numbered for holiday.

Date application received by IPS: 28/5/14 Belfast?

Date of return of documents: 3/7/14- as I needed to travel I had to get my MP involved in order to get my docs rushed back to me early

Date of Passport Appointment: None available in London, had to go to Luton but date was postponed due to travel 14/7/14
Date of Passport Receipt: 16/7/14
I am very stressed and confused- the Online query I did (filed 11/6, reply recd 13/6) said my Application was received at BELFAST. I live in London. I have called numerous times to try to get my Docs back and have had no call backs from Belfast at all (even though they are supposed to call within 48h). I called again today and apparently my App is now in PETERBOROUGH?
Did this happen to anyone else? Does it mean my application will be delayed longer than usual?
Thanks in advance!
