When they realized it's been 4 weeks now since I registered, and no sign of appointment, they said I need to be patient as it is a major logistical challenge. They have not answered the my question on how big the delay is in Citywest and can I be assigned to a different center.

He wasn’t impressed when I said it had been 4 weeks since I registered. I totally get that their under enormous pressure and I can imagine the crap they’re dealing with daily but there does seem to be a huge discrepancy with appointments in Citywest. Hope you hear soon.

I tweeted @hselive and all they said was it would be between 4 and 12 weeks. Why all the fanfare about reducing the waiting time to get the 60-69 group out if the way if they're still saying it could be 12 weeks? My wife is 5 years younger than me and is already double vaccinated with Pfizer. Starting to get pretty annoyed.

Anyone else get something similar? Thought I saw a post earlier in the thread where putting in the info caused issues, which is why I’m hesitant to put it in. Not sure why this info would be needed the second time and not the first, apart from saving a minute on the day.
