Only a date 42 days in advance may be booked?
Based on other forum user experiences, the only appointment slots you will see after a search are upto 42 days from the current search date. The appointment search screen however allows you to enter any date range.
This is my experience so far, I'm sharing it in case it helps anyone else. I wanted to try out the whole appointment search and booking process, even though I knew I'd never find an appointment for mid January (which is what I need) yet. I did a search at around 10.30pm last night (Sunday). Within the span of 15 mins I found 3 appointments, though I was only fast enough to book the last one. The first was an appointment for December 17th @ Solihul, the second was for December 21st @ Cardiff and the third was for Nov 21st @ Croydon. I got these on 3 different search attempts while selecting different PEO centres. I was only fast enough to book the last one. The delay was due to the time it took for me to enter the random security text string that appeared on screen.
I tried to reschedule the last appointment I booked to a later date but did not get a suitable one so cancelled the appointment (for someone else to be able to pick-up) in the end instead.
Note that I left the date range and time blank to see what dates & times I would get.
