    Why are they not sure they issued the original to the right person?? Surely you existing FAL should be enough to prove ID

    It's like a pendulum. Lax as F when it suits them, now that they successfully gave us the hospital pass they've swung the other way and make it as unpleasant and intrusive as possible.

    Thats what i thought @mikee....i showed my existing legal FAL to the police officer at the station, but that is NOT one of the three required for 'renewal'.....makes no logical sense to me!!!!!

    they took photocopies of my Passport & Drivers licence (photo ID), and a credit card

    Would not trust them (or anyone else ) with photocopy of my credit card
