Do you mean your passport has expired (ie over 10yrs old)?

I used an old passport by mistake but it's only a couple of years old, I had to get a new one though because the inside front cover is damaged (by a Virgin Atlantic lady but they wouldn't give me compensation/pay for a new one - grr!!). I guess they wouldn't know that it's not my current one so it should be ok?

Have any East London applicants received an email yet?

Hi, only just found this thread, I scored in the top 10% on the online testing and 43 in the interview, they have since phoned me asking me to get an upto date passport as they cant accept my old one as proof of id and the reading manager was keen for me to get the correct id. I have explained to them that i am on jsa and cant afford 90+ for a passport without a concrete job offer but they are so unhelpful. All she kept saying to me was it will be worth you pursuing this but i still cant magic the money out of thin air. Does anyone know what happens incases like this?? thanks x

I'd say you're almost certain to get the post. Nobody you know that will loan you the money until you're in post?
