Question for UK voters

[ffutures]

With three weeks to go to the general election, has anyone received their polling card yet?

I'm sincerely hoping that they did not expect the card for the local elections to be reused, because I shredded it about an hour after voting - it has a lot of ID information etc. and I really didn't want anyone to find it and use it to get credit or something.

Later - thanks to everyone who commented! I know that the card strictly speaking isn't necessary to vote if you have ID, one of my reasons for wondering is that they changed my local constituency in the last lot of boundary changes - I had to vote in a different building in the council elections and I want to be sure it will be the same place this time. It looks like the cards went out in the last few days, so hopefully I'll know soon.

I got mine a couple of days ago. (I live in South Wales)

I got mine in the post today (NE Scotland). It said my postal vote will come next week.

Yes, this week. I'm in Cambridge.

Mine only just arrived this morning. (I'm in Essex.)

I've got mine, beginning of this week IIRC. If you know where your polling station is and the ID rules, you don't actually need it.

I have mine, in Cambridge.

No sign of mine.
But you don't actually need the polling card to vote. You just have to hope they haven't changed the location of your polling station, because the card's the only thing that tells you where it is.

Mine arrived Thursday.

Some of the neighbours' polling cards turned up yesterday. Still no sign of mine.
