Esta done approved in 2 hours

[Byron]

Did mine a few weeks ago, it was the biggest faff that I’ve ever encountered 6 applications on a group booking each one needing a code, took nearly an hour and a half to apply and 30 minutes for the authorisations lol

Hi Byron There is a thread below on this. I did the same and ended up doing mine again.

I want to do mine at home but don't have a printer linked to my laptop. I have always printed them in the past so once it's authorised can you print it afterwards rather than at the time of application? I am also thinking from the posts above that it no longer says if it is approved immediately and that everyone has to wait some time to find out if it's authorised.

No longer approved immediately so yes, you can go in afterwards to retrieve/print etc.
I did mine while working at home & don’t have a printer; once approved, I took a screenshot for my records until I went into the office & printed a copy.

Thank you. Dreading doing it but I've completed it many times in the past so no idea why I'm putting it off. Maybe cos there has been so much talk about it.

Did ours today (Sunday) and was amazed to see approval within the hour. One of the biggest changes I noticed from two years ago was the social media section, asking for all sites We were on and our usernames. Bit of a faff but all ok and now ok for the next two years..😄😎

That section was marked as optional so I declined to do it.

I have just read this thread and seen you have to put your middle name in ? I only put my first name in - It has been approved but for the sake of £11 ish would you do it again and include my middle name ?

Just done the same not sure what to do as they are all approved.

Ditto regarding not putting in our middle names, what I don't quite understand is that you
are required to enter your passport details so I would expect that this information is checked so that it tallies with their database and any differences would trigger a refusal or at least a message for you to re-check the information provided.
