Bowen20 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Hi everyone what's the longed time you have waited for a variation I posted mine on the 03/11/2010 they cashed the cheque on the 17th of that month since then it's been a joke they processed my license n it sat there 4 weeks waiting to be signed only for them to tell me the rifle I have put in for the land was t cleared for that caliber so the land check had to be done by the police force where my land is which is Humberside I spoke to them they said due to adverse weather conditions they said they couldn't go out ok fair enough phoned a week later to my firearms department they said they have contacted Humberside and they said they were on with it so ok. Another week passes so I phoned Humberside they set up a date for the 23 of December to go and view land they went land checked passed for 22-250 fine sweet. They posted everything to south Yorkshire and still waiting now said it wod be signed either yesterday or today am still waiting for a phone call to pick it up cos if it has to b waited to be posted it will be another few month :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apache Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 2 Months isn't that long. Look at the situation in Ireland with it taking a year. TBH you can take best part of three week out of the time for Christmas and New year. Also the weather slowing things down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowen20 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Last time I put one in took 2 weeks man it's killing me the time seems to pass even slower when your waiting for something. Damn I hate clock watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triscrx Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 1 year in Ireland!! That is just terrible service.. I sent mine to Devon & Cornwall on the 20th Dec I think and they haven't taken the cheque yet. Usually very fast though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 9 months initial grant and have at least another 5 months of a wait before I hear anything about my variation. Unless of course some kind of miracle happens. Unlikely though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
