    Living room selfies have been fine for my last two renewals.

    A friend of ours used the Post Office Check and Send service.  The application was returned by the Passport Office because it wasn't signed.  Certainly a waste of money in that instance.
    We did use photo booths to produce our photo's because of the stories of people having to send in photo's multiple times.  Cost isn't bad when it's only 2 people but obviously adds up for a family.

    Did ours online a couple of days ago and already received them. Very easy although i struggled to take a selfie without my glasses. Just stand in front of white wall.

    The lack of a white wall was my issue last year so I went to the Timpsons hut outside my local Sainsburys.   Sorry, I can't remember what I paid but he uploaded it, confirmed it had been accepted and I did the rest.  Very quick and painless.
