cgksheff   44 #4 Posted January 29, 2018 I blame the BBC for overpaying their copywriters: "So if your passport runs out before 27 December, you might want to consider getting it renewed in the next eight weeks at the cheaper rate" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Fogey   10 #5 Posted January 29, 2018 The price of a 10 year British passport is set to rise. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-42860723  If I've learnt anything in the few months I've been posting on SF, it's the following.  3,2,1, Brexit - & off you go!  By employing their divide and conquer tactics to fool the simpletons into voting for brexit, the Thatcherites are now able to really get on with pricing the poor out of everything that should only be available to the rich and privileged.  Thin end of the wedge.  Hows that?

SnailyBoy   10 #7 Posted January 29, 2018 Largest price increase is for postal applications, taking into account the processing of those applications. Smaller increase for online applications. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Circle fully circled 100 years on.  2018...Weren't we all supposed to be travelling around by flying cars, and bask in a life of leisure whilst robots did all the work?

iansheff   83 #12 Posted January 30, 2018 Has anybody said why the price is going up?  Amazing that a Government saying people in the public sector can only have low pay rises puts an adult passport up by 17% and a child passport by 27%.
