Dannyboy220 Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Any one got any idea how long Kent is taking roughly at the moment. I have a couple of mates who have just had visits now on the wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy220 Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Answered my own question. My. Ates licence turned up yesterday, about 2 weeks after his visit. Well don Kent that's much better than my 16 week wait. Just 1 more to come through and our little syndicate is complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northamptonclay Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Northants , 3 weeks from sending application to FEO visit , been 8 weeks since visit and still waiting, told it only needs a signature so should only be a few more weeks :blink: Edited July 2, 2012 by Northamptonclay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloke Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Update 18th June - FEO and dept rang, still no idea when they will even consider new applications. Complaint letter sent now to chief of firearm registration dept, copy kept to go to chief constable unless she replies. I dont want preferential treatment , just a date they will stick to would be a start! 20 weeks plus now, and nine weeks since FEO visit....... Still waiting.............. UPDATE - 3rd July... It is now 24 weeks since the date on my FAC application, and at least 23 weeks since it was delivered to Lincs police. Rang them today (13 weeks after the FEO visit and 1 week after making a written complaint to the head of dept) and they assure me that it has now all been approved and is waiting to be signed - it should be with me in a week (We'll see!). I hope that this progress is not just because I complained, or how long will it be for others? It is only a week short of 6 months for a new application, dreadful enough, but taking into account the announcement yesterday about the effect the new cuts are going to have on Lincolnshire Police, how much more are they going to cut the manpower to this department before it becomes a total standstill? They have been obviously totally undermanned for the service need. Like many of us on here, I rant when it applies to me, but I do have to say that the Lincs firearms dept are always polite and helpful, but they can't get a quart out of a pint pot, as my dad used to say.
