I've asked the gestor who advised me of this very recent availability at municipal foreigners' offices and will confirm back as soon as he responds - not just for EX-23 residency to TIE exchange, but I've also asked him whether this is an option for EX-21 first-time applicants, who have received their 'favourable result', but have been unable to secure the finger-print appointment at Alicante. I'd like to think that, where members are using gestors to help with either of these applications, that their own advisers will also be aware of this extra availability.
Kind regards,
Kim

Hello Emma
Great to get your feedback and know that it went so well, good news for local people who can now get everything dealt with efficiently & can collect TIE in a few weeks from Torrevieja.
Thanks again
Cheers
