my oldest needed the NHS C19 Passport for going to Uni freshers stuff, they were doing 2 coloured wrist bands, one if you had shown the passport, the other you needed to show.a LFT result in the last 24 hours, of course people who hadn't had the 2 jabs were just scanning the QR code on the LFT and clicking Negative, the text came back, job done
as it goes, the turnaround for the NHS one was about 24 hours, took a pic of her passport, said a few words in the app and was approved the next day, all pretty painless
Do you mean the ‘double jab proof’ paper from the NHS Dave? Bit of a faff and a few things to go through, submitting your NHS number, taking a selfie of yourself holding your passport (I think it was your passport) and a piece of paper with the 4 number code they’ve sent. Had it through the post in a few days and have used it a few times at airports with no problem at all.
I tried to do it yesterday through the NHS website. Firstly, I had to set up an NHS account with my NHS number, which I had ready. Then I was sent a verification e-mail with some numbers I had to enter. Then I was sent a verification text with some more numbers I had to enter. Then I had to scan in a copy of my passport. Then I had to take a video of myself reading out four numbers. No picture appeared on the screen when I pressed record despite my webcam being attached to the computer, turned on and working just fine (I'd been using it ten minutes before I attempted to get the Covid pass). It was a ballache. I gave up in the end as there was nothing more I could do.

Pretty painless if you have the app maybe. I don't have the app and I don't want the ****ing thing either. Neither do I want to take my mobile phone to any of the gigs where I will need this pass, so an app is no ****ing good to me.

Jesus, that sounds complicated. Looks like i'll have to swerve social functions and holidays with my missus. That's a real bummer...
I thought that they said "you'll need a covid passport or proof that you've had two jabs" or words to that effect.
That’s what it is. The card you got isn’t good enough apparently. I have had to get one twice. The first time was time consuming and a potch but the second time I got one in a few minutes.
it's valid for 30 days from the day you sign in to your account.
so for example if you were going on holiday you sign in, get a a copy printed or saved to your phone and then when you are away show your printed copy or the image from your phone without needing to sign in each time.
each time you do sign in to your account you get a new code valid for another 30 days
I went to France a few weeks ago and printed my codes out. each time i went to a location that requested it I just showed my piece of paper which they scanned and all good. Or showed the saved image on my phone. The printed page and the image saved to your phone has your details on it so they can cross check with your ID if required.
Also needed to show it in Bristol for a gig and in Cardiff for the Manics last week
It's really not that much of a problem if you prepare a little bit. Jut like having a second ticket when going to a gig and showing ID when you go to a bar.
All very well if you are gadget savvy/IT literate. But there are huge amounts of people that are not, including City/football fans. The paper certificate option gives hope for these people, and requires making a phone call to a designated NHS number. However, from the twice thus far i have tried it has not answered (20 minutes each time). I understand the need for these things, but processes are never thought out well or take into consideration that there are many people with limited digital ability. I am of the opinion many city fans will just not bother, as it seems to much of a pain in the butt, especially to watch dross.
