Instinct emailed the consulate and got my passport renewal appointment set up

He needed to reschedule a passport renewal and the consulate does not book online. Instinct emailed the consulate from his account, the consulate called him the next day to arrange the appointment, and Instinct put the emailed confirmation on his calendar and checked it for clashes.

How it works

  1. Ask Instinct to reschedule the passport renewal
  2. It emails the consulate from his account
  3. The consulate calls him the next day and they arrange the appointment
  4. The confirmation arrives by email
  5. Instinct adds it to his calendar and checks for clashes and finds none

Why it’s worth knowing

The consulate has no online booking at all. The agent handled the whole thing over email and the office called him back the next day.
