Covid passports.

Re: Covid passports.

Anyone trying to get a pass online today? Website seems to be broken.

Some people on Twitter freaking out as they can't complete online check in to their airlines without the Pass.

To be fair people have had a good while to sort them out. You’ve needed them to fly for ages so why people hadn’t organised them in advance God knows. You’d sort your passport out if it was out of date and you were going abroad.

Always have the original printed off seems to be the lesson here. I did print off a couple of copies but the ‘word’ copy comes out on it, not acceptable, it must be the original. I think it’s wise to print everything off and take it with you, travel vouchers, hotel vouchers, transfer vouchers, boarding passes etc. Relying on your ‘phone alone isn’t a wise move.

Re: Covid passports.

Just read this unbelievable paragraph:——

“Large events could also be allowed to check passes at random, rather than check every person who attends.” !!!!

Shirley this can’t be true ?

Pick and choose, randomly select, are they taking the pi&&

What a load of rubbish the whole thing is.

Are people seriously ok with this? Producing a pass to prove you’ve had a voluntary vaccination?

Really wonder where we’d draw the line as a population, if indeed anywhere

Re: Covid passports.

I'd like to share with you my first experience of using my 'Covid Passport'.

My NHS letter arrived yesterday afternoon, in plenty of time for the sold-out gig at Cardiff University's Great Hall that I attended this evening. Upon arrival at the venue, a steward was walking up and down the queue telling people to have their Covid passports ready for inspection. When I got to the front of the queue, I attempted to show my letter to the female steward who was on my side of the barriers. Without even looking at it, she said: "Yeah, great, get your ticket ready."

I could have shown her my electricity bill or something I'd randomly printed off the internet for all the difference it made. The steward barely glanced at my letter, which comes as no surprise. After all, I've wandered into a couple of sell-out shows at Cardiff's Tramshed in recent years without even having to show my gig ticket. I'm going there again in a fortnight. I'll be astonished if the door staff give anything more than a cursory glance at my ticket, let alone my Covid letter.

All sorted this morning by phoning:- 03003035667

This for people who haven’t (or don’t want to use it) got tinternet

I tried that number from my landline (Virgin) and all I get is "This srvice is not compatible with this call"

I can't use the "smart" route as I don't have a valid photo ID.I tried the 119 service and after going round in circles with their options, finally spoke to someone who directed me to the same bloody number!

Yes, but line goes dead when I ring from that.

Re: Covid passports.

There’s no ‘if’. You need them from 11th October here in Drakeford’s Wales. City fans over 18 are going to need one to attend matches.

Have the players and officials got to be double vaccinated? Are they even going to be checking their vaccination status?

If it's typical of everything else that Dripford has done so far, he's not even thought of the possibility.

I just rang that number from my mobile. It does appear to be a dead line, as it doesn’t start ringing.

But, stay on-line, it started ringing after about a minute

Landline suddenly started working. I'm now in a bloody queue.

(I hardly use a mobile, so I have a P&g.
Finally got through on that, but I used up a quid of credit listening to the options!)

Just got through. 11 minutes in queue. Would have cleaned out my mobile credit.
Now I just have to hope that it arrives before the boro game!

You think its a load of rubbish ? I think its excellent. Helping to save lives it is called. I want to know that the person that I am sitting or standing next to cares enough about their own health and that of others to get the vaccinations. Not a full guarantee of not having or getting Covid I know but reduces the risk sufficiently to make me feel easier about taking the risk and trying to return to nearer normal. If I catch Covid, I die - simple as that. Anyone who doesn't get the jabs (other than for medical reasons) obviously doesn't care and is playing Russian Roulette with their own lives and everyone else that they meet.
