smokinbarrels Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I sent mine off and i managed to get a home visit 10 weeks later. Its now been 4 weeks since the visit and i've just been informed its going to take at least another 4 weeks. What kind of service do the police provide when it takes this long? I'd say its very poor, if the work load is so great why don't they employe more staff? Regard,s a very fed up Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
