    From what I gather the fees varies from all over the country and depending on what Doctors surgery you have.

    I guess that they know that if you want it enough you will pay for it.......unfair I know

    It's purely down to what each doctor's surgery charges.

    I am also having to re-register after moving from England to Wales and as far as I know I am not being charged, haven't had a bill yet anyway.

    I had to pay £60 but other local childminders paid as low as £15.

    Its upto the individual practice to charge what they like.

    usually my gp will charge 70 odd quid for a medical report but when i told them what it was for they actually recognised that i would be serving the community and done it for 30 quid instead..which i thought was rather honourable, dunno if it maybe worth playing the sympathy card a little????!!!!

    I didnt get charged a thing. My doctor just took the form off me and said 'no worries i'll do it today'

    He's always been nice to me so maybe it was a favour

    my doctor charged me £35 but his charges were £70 so he did half it for me, but it went straight into his personal account not the practise one as the receptionist told me !!! and I had to write my cheeque out to him not the surgery xxxx

    Mine charged £15, which isn't bad compared to some but they held up my application for about 5wks. I ended up having to speak to the practice manager to get it sorted, so don't know if that was some kind of discount or not.

    Mine was £25 I think, certainly no more than £30.

    Extortionate considering she basically just signed the thing! Don't think she filled much in at all if I remember rightly.

    I paid nothing for mine but that is only because i am with the med centre on a RAF base and they are not allowed to charge for things like that.

    I know someone in kings lynn who was charged £75 though!
