Notts sell them at £10 a piece. With regards to why you would want one...

A regular colleague of mine recently lost his warrant card. It fell out of his pocket. He got a leather holder so that it would make a noise if it fell out again.

Secondly I was doing some plain clothes work and had to show mine to a MOP, and even though i have a holder he still didn't believe me and took a swing at me!

In short I havent got the foggiest. Will find out tomorrow!

Any news?

The onus is upon him, so it doesn't matter whether or not he believes you - as soon as you have presented your warrant card you are acting in the execution of your duty.

Assault then becomes Assault PC.

I know, but all the same I'd rather he just realised in the first place. Would have been easier for all involved.

I'm going to have to remember your signature sometime: "Look at my hat. It says ER not A-Z"

That's useful, but we're in Lincolnshire.

Any news CHAS?

Lincolnshire Warrant card holders are only supplied to officers who work in plain clothes. This can be for those who work occasionally on pro-active work, but it has to be approved by your manager.

It is possible to buy them, however they are not the officially issued 'jeeves' type, but a different style, which I found not much good because they don't have room for other credit cards in them. The other thing about them is that they were designed for when the warrant card was 'landscape', but now they have gone to 'portrait' so they look a bit odd.

If anyone wants contact details of the officer who sells them, please let me know by pm.

Can they tell the time?

If you put a watch in them then they probably can..

I'd rather just look at my wrist watch to check the time rather than look for my warrant card to check! Unless the Warrant Card holder's watch was somehow connected to a Nuclear clock that was accurate to the millisecond, in which case, the holder's watch would be sought!

[Black Rat]

Never mind, found another place to get them.

And ?

Spill the beans for everyone then....

Beware! Even if you buy the holder, if it has the force crest on it, then it belongs to the force and you have to surrender it if you leave. (providing they know about it) It's some sort of copyright thing, and probably security related as well. You can get them cheaper if you get a few mates to buy some as well, as they are cheaper in bulk. jeeves will only send them to a Police address, and informs the procurement department who, where and how many they have sold.

I don't think that's accurate mate
