Congrats on all those upgraded so far!
Quick Q. If you post your reply forms, should there be some confirmation that they have received them?

Wow massive congrats to you Loerian!
You must be on top of the world, what a glorious feeling that must be!
I guess the UK (London Embassy) haven't started upgrading yet... I'm hanging in there (just) lol
My mobile phone and I are having staring competitions... I think I'm winning

Anyone know of any more alternates being upgraded since Loerian?
I've been too stressed out with final exams to stress over JET but now that the exams are properly underway, JET-itis is back ha

I've also been freaked out as my phone's voicemail isn't working, and my network's giving me the runaround about it, so I'm terrified about missing a call

Hey all
Just wondering does Naomi call you mobile only or does she call the house phone aswell I havn't heard a thing yet. Im worried since I live near the borders between NI and Rep. Im afraid i might lose a call simply due to reception.

Wow! I really thought the first wave of upgrades would've been this week for sure! I'm halfway through my finals now so this news has given me a bit of encouragement to actually go and study ha! Has it sunk in yet Loerian? The more I think about it, I'm glad I wasn't a shortlister or upgraded before my exams, so much extra pressure

Hello, have any Irish alternates heard anything? I've seen some of the other consulates have upgraded people, but nothing here so far.. Otherwise holding out until the end of May..
