Welcome to British-Genealogy
If you came to us from FWR reading This will tell you a little about us.
WW11 service records are still held by the MoD. This 'sticky' gives some information and links to application forms. You will need a death certificate and 30 pounds then lots of patience because so many others are on the same quest right now.

Hello
I would be getting in touch with them to see what has gone awry. You did use the official application form?
This link gives advice by the MoD on what to do if dissatisfied with the service. Scroll down to the heading 'How to complain if you are unhappy with the handling of your request.'
