Passport Renewal

The passport office doesn't make any profit from the passports. (That's why the fee went DOWN recently) Consular fees are added on to the price. This is to pay for any consular assistance you may be unfortunate to require whilst abroad.
Interesting...
Since I spent a fair chunk of the last few years in countries where there is no British embassy, consulate or anything (cost saving), does that mean I can get a refund for the non-existent consular services?0 -
What a lot of people seem to have missed is that nowadays many companies ask for proof of right to work in uk- the most commonly used one is a valid British passport. So obviously is may be necessary for someone on JSA to have one for this purpose before everyonne starts villifying people for taking holidays eyc0
