Both our EHICs having expired last month, and with a trip to Portugal coming up at the end of May, I applied for GHICs for both of us on 4th April. Can anyone who has applied for a GHIC recently advise how long theirs took to arrive? I'm wondering at what point I need to start badgering the GHIC people given that our next trip is approaching over the horizon.
(We do have travel insurance as well but, not unreasonably, the insurers expect you to have a GHIC if travelling to a country that accepts them.)
