The I know something you don’t syndrome. When asked to put up or shut up they just avoid. In fact, here we have someone who sends PM’s requesting things are taken down, and when asked to justify just goes silent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all - please send me a DM and I will use my best endeavours to ensure that the person with the query receives a personal response addressing their worries or concerns.

That implies you know the answer ( otherwise you couldn’t say it was wrong ). You won’t give the answer. The questions I, and others, have raised deserve a public, not a private answer. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballaughbiker Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 Quote Well, no. I, like Declan want the ease of an app. I want to be able to use it to board transport, cross borders, enter countries, prove vaccination status at events, pubs, clubs, restaurants, as appropriate. Me too. I'm off to France where they have an app called TousAntiCovid. It provides a QR to access places and transport that require full vax. I have just tried to activate it with the NHS 2D barcode and .. yes .. it works. It just all needs repeating in 30 days which, as you have already pointed out, is a pain Maybe your destination countries have a similar app to the French that may help whilst this is resolved?

You didn't answer my question before, it might be pretty useful to know ahead of time what information you need to provide to get the certificate. Say someone who has never logged into anything NHS based ever. Do they first need to phone their gp to find out their NHS number? Do you need to photo your passport? Do you have to provide 6 forms of proof of address and your grandparents birth certificates? That kind of thing.

manx-person Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 2 hours ago, John Wright said: Just in case anyone doesn’t understand why I want to be able to use the App, rather than web sites. 1. I generally access websites on my PC. It remembers my log in and password, which is fine when I’m at my desk or using a VPN remote connection. 2. logging into a web site via phone and iPad requires me to remember user name and password. 3. app log in is biometric, either finger print or facial, across multiple devices. Number 3 is easier on the hoof. Throughout the pandemic we’ve been treated like mushrooms. We were promised data upon which decisions were based. 18 months on I must have missed its release. This is yet another example. We won’t give you the pass on the app. Why not? We won’t. Explain? No! The pass has a limited life. Why? GDPR. What on the app requires GDPR protecting? It’s GPPR. Tell us more. No. John - do you use an iPhone or an android phone ? If an iPhone please note that you can add the pass to your Apple wallet - this may be convenient for you for offline use.
