Maybe a good idea is to try other offices..I know when we got same day service for my wife's ilr...we tried both Croydon and Cardiff..Cardiff at the time offered us an appointment 4 weeks earlier.
When I called UKBA yesterday 08706067766, a recorded message (during the wait for someone to answer) was telling that appointment for applications via PEO is currently fully booked and they were advising to send applications via post..
