Re: Passport Help
I can't remember who signed mine, but looking through the list of people who can countersign the application, I bet your best bet is your local councillor. When I've had to contact them in the past, they have always been very helpful, and hopefully they won't charge you for their paw print.
Who can countersign my application? - Identity and Passport Service

Re: Passport Help
What are people charging to do this? I can sign a passport as, like Stanaccy, I am a Civil Servant and I've done it many times. It would never enter my head to ask for money. I think I've missed out on a lucrative sideline there.

Re: Passport Help
The pillar who signed mine was my "Daddy" at our wedding. He's a banker.
