Title: Sneaky Passport Office
Post by: Blue Lizard on September 13, 2018, 04:37:00 PM: Just read an article by Martin Lewis stating that as from 10 th September If you apply for a passport any existing time on your current passport is no longer being carried over..... Not right IMO that they should be so underhand about our personal documents which we pay for.!!!Bloomin cheek... :o >:D
