Laoni cannot find her passport. this screws alot of things up. mainly she cant go (at the time of writing) but we've looked EVERYWHERE.


Swansea wont issue a passport on the same day for lost/stolen passports so were at a bit of a loose end.



any suggestions, or is it just a case of taking it on the chin?

| just keep looking....not a nice experience at all!! and its impossible to leave the country without it, turn the house upside down.

fingers crossed...

If you take a trip up to London to the passport office (i think its called something like petit France) LOL. I went up there on the day i was suspose to go to France because I lost my passport. Make sure you get the form filled in ready and have the countersigned photo etc. etc

They were able to do the passport there and then. A couple of hours of waiting mind you, but i was in Paris by the evening. What a stressfull day that was.

....thats right Dan w, i think thats the passport office by liverpool street!! i think my sister done that once, a few hours wait but she got there in the end, as he said just make sure you have the fotos.

Jump on that train Laoni to London, as a previous post states I'm sure you can get one in Petty France. Not sure of the cost though but details will be on the web somewhere.

it will be in the last place you look so look there first ( i know just trying to make you smile at a bad time)

hope you find it or manage to get a replacement

Look here

Phone the passport office, tell them that you need to apply for an emergency passport and you need to make an appointment to go and collect it in person.

The number to ring (just incase link no worky) is 0870 521 0410 and that's a 24 hour helpline.

I do hope you can get an appointment today and get it sorted.

Here details it better!

We've had to do this kind of thing for work before as we quite often have to travel short notice, so you really can get a passport on the same day. You just need to get on the blower ASAP and make an appointment. In the meantime, we'll keep our fingers crossed for you!

[The Matt]

Aaaand, if she were to get on the train to London today and get it sorted out, there are plenty of people staying at Thurrock Travelodge that could help out with onward travel to Brands

Thanks for that Matt.

Hope you find it

[Black.Ghost]

Oh Jesus. Thats not good news.

I hope you find it. It will be somewhwere so obvious. The other thing that needs to be done is look everywhere again, if you have time. I've looked somewhere before for something and found it there afterwards.

If not, get down to London...

hide her in the boot of the car

Hey guys

I still can't find it, and it's really confusing because I'm usually so organised. The only thing is.. my car got broken into about a month ago and there's a possibility that my passport may have been in my bag at the time.. and was consequently taken. I can't remember if it was or not, but i certainly can't find it ANYWHERE in the house

On those links you sent me it says that the service can't be used for lost or stolen passports, and I tried calling that number last night only to be told that there's nothing I can do

Ive just spoken to Norfolkline, who said that they would ship me with a drivers licence and birth certificate, but then gave me the number of French immigration who basically said that i would be refused at immigrations. Argh!

What to do, what to do
