London Freedom Pass holders should have renewed their passes by now, in order to receive the new-style passes. If you have applied, and are still waiting for your pass, you can track your progress here: http://tracker.freedompass.org/. 

 

However, if you haven't recived your new pass yet, you can still use your old one for the next few months. If you have any queries, and for more information see here:

Forms are available from any London Post Office branch or on the Freedom Pass website, and will be considered as new applications, therefore you will need to supply proof of identity and passport sized photographs when you apply.
