I got a date for 4th of May from Bhogal Solicitors and Partners. There was a girl named by Farah - 07432 603 606. She seems to me professional and helpful and also not very expensive.
You can give them a call, if you cant find date online or just check if they arrange an appointment you need.
Thanks mfb
cheers

It was online this morning. But its down now again.
Getting following message when I search for available slots.
Code: Select all
We can not complete your appointment booking. This is due to a technical problem. Please try again later.

Quick question to Forum Members, If you try you reschedule the appointment does that automatically cancel the old one if new one is not selected/confirmed.

Yes it does and when you try to reschedule the message is clear that your current appointment will be automatically delete before rescheduling.

No it doesn't
UKBA website message is wrong.
IF you try to reschedule and look for other available appointments but Do not select any and come back to main page - then your original appointment will remain same.
I have tried it many times.

Since the online booking system is down, is there any other way to book appointment for PEO?
I want to book for first week of June.
Please share your experience how are you booking appointment other than online method?

gm21 I was expecting more than word "thanks".
Is it possible to book appointment via telephone?
if it is possible, then how can we book it, does the 42 days criteria also applies to telephone appointment booking?

I have noticed the online booking system is down during the day time. It works flawless between 8pm - 8am evenings and early mornings.
I have booked an appointment for Solihull exactly mid-night.
As the clocked turned 00:00 and I hit search and there were plenty of appointments available. As I tried earlier few minutes ago there were none available. So the appointments are most certainly released mid-night 00:00.

Hi Guys,
I had an appointment on 24th which was cancelled. I booked another one on 25-04-12 @7.40am for 27th April at 8.05?
Is there any problem, as they 48hrs thing. I think they should have my details as I already had an appointment but this time different PEO. Do they have a centralised system to access our files or something else?
Please advise.
Thanks

But the online booking system is online and works flawless between 2000hrs and 0800am.

They say no appointments for next week, but can give one for may 30th. it looks like they do give appointments on phone if we give reason website giving technical error fault.
I want for next week, so will keep trying between 8pm and 0800am.
If anyone wants for may end or after and unable to book online, try calling them and should help.

ajs, are you trying to book a family appointment or a single appointment. I booked a family appointment and these appointments are hard to come by and are taken instantly as they are released.
You might be able to book a single appointment for mid May.

Its for single appt. yeah getting an early appointment is seeming quite tough, was sitting all night till 1am refreshing to see if any slots become available and i had one for 4th may, but by time i filled details someone might have grabbed it, the appointment was no longer available.
I got one for b'gham finally. phew!!
