Hi,

I apologize in advance if I'm posting this in the wrong place!

I've had a Blue Badge for over ten years, and got enough of the dreaded pip points for a mandatory badge for the renewal. I renewed using the Gov.uk portal and uploaded all the documentation, however had heard nothing from the local council (Liverpool) I've ended up going into a one stop shop (local government office) and renewing in person (still heard nothing so far)

Is anyone else having problems with this or the government website? of is this a local issue? it's an absolute pain as the badge has ran out and a complete nightmare trying to get to hospital appointments.

Thanks in advance. Kind Regards,

Hi Reality

The government portal is not showing that it has any problems (and it has done so on occasions) - so I would suggest you have a local issue.

I would try ringing your local council. (Not always easy I know).

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Thanks Bis,

I uploaded all the documentation on the 21st of May and now feel like I'm getting fobbed off every time I contact the local authority!

Will try again the council again, tomorrow. It's just someone at some point said the government was implementing a new system for the Blue Badges and if it was down to that.

Thanks again, Cx
