TWIC/TSA

Anyone with a ticket done this...
What a PITA.

Went to pick mine up yesterday afternoon in New London.
Went to the office where I enrolled and where the online form told me to go... find a note said they switched offices, across the river in Gales Ferry... 1hr later I found it.

typical %$%$%$%$ed up system.... one guy had been there 2hrs, and another just showed up at 2p for an 1130a appointment b/c he was lost for 2+hrs...

at least I have it for 5 years

I was notified yesterday to make an "appointment" to pick up my card where I enrolled. That was what appeared to be a rented meeting room in a Seekonk motel. Hope it's still there. Just another contribution/taxation. They're s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&' me dry!!!!!!

Catch'em up,
ThomCat

I had the appointment, it was just the getting lost part and the $130.00 part that sucked!

$132.50
I have an appointment in 2 weeks to pick mine up.
Went for my interview (had an appointment) @ 11:30 about 4 weeks ago, by the time I filled out the questioner it was 12 noon, the 1 guy in the office that was working said "you have to come back in an hr. I go to lunch from 12 - 1"
I was told a rumor there is another ticket they are working on implementing @ the cost of $800
