Very difficult to renew Public Services card online

[Tintagel]

It took 4 weeks for my wife to get her renewal card. She couldn't use the old one as it was immediately cancelled.

I called out to DunLaoghaire to renew mine. When entering I was told by the security Guard that there would be a delay as the person who deals with it was on their tea break?

No cover for this person?

When opening a fixed term account in the AIB last year, they refused to accept our public service card as I.D.

Yep, it's not valid ID for anything other than government services

I have recently renewed my Public Services Card. New photo. Will this photo be acceptable for a renewal of my passport?

Cover for a tea break?

Surely 15 minutes isn’t a big deal

That's not the point.

Staggered tea breaks would make more sense I agree but if you’d arrived and not been told there was a delay due to tea breaks you’d not have noticed 15 minutes either way.

I did notice either way. I was the only person waiting and staring at an empty desk waiting for someone to occupy it. My parking meter fee also noticed it.
