Blackpowder Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 On Tuesday I returned my completed joint re-newal form to Police Scotland. Yesterday I had a phone call to arrange a visit, today by 11pm everything was done and dusted. Very polite officer from the local station had it all done within the space of an hour. Well done Police Scotland. Blackpowder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Police Scotland. Blackpowder 11PM today? Your post is 1PM?? Que... Sent my form in about ten weeks ago Had the visit approx. six weeks ago; then about three follow up phone calls. The Police Scotland reminder suggested 8 weeks process time. I received the reminder with 12 weeks left on the certs. The day before the reminder they had received all my completed, so I've given them an extra 4 weeks admin. time (50% more than they required). So far they have used almost two weeks of the extra time I gave them & I have just over two weeks left to expiry. NOT that prompt in my experience - Police Scotland is now a total NHS style lottery - or "ye olde curates egg" for Punch readers out there...i.e., good in parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigads28 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Aberdeen cashed my cheque on nov 15th, I got my visit in march and I'm still waiting. They don't have the staff to do all the applications. I shudder to think how long it will take them once there are air guns to do too.
