visa waiver program expiry ASAP!!!!!

[titleist 1]

hi applied for a visa waiver program visa on may 16th this year which was approved i am from scotland and will be travelling to the usa on monday but when i went to print out my application and it says that it has expired, this is not long since i applied and my passport still has 2 years on it ??

why is this? can anyone help.... also if it has expired and i need to re apply can this be done before monday??

thanks

at the time i applied i applied at 2 sites one at the ESTA which is the expired one and one at theESTA USA services which has a usa services email which was approved and still is valid, can anyone confirm if this will be ok?

Which website did you apply on? There are some scam sites out there.

For UK applicants, ESTA is generally good for 2 years from application.

on esta and took a pic at the time and it says approved on there but when i go to check not its saying expired

will the pic on my fone be enough to get granted entry???

i think i got scammed on the first one which was the usaeservices.com one which was 78 dollars but the usta was 14 which i think was ok

should i just reapply to save hassle and lose the 14 dollars?

as it comes through instantly

Reapply on the real site, not a scam one. It's $14. The photo on your phone will certainly not be enough to get in.

Ask the airline you're flying with.

It's electronic, meaning no paperwork is needed. As long as you entered the correct name, date of birth and passport number when you applied for ESTA you should be fine. You shouldn't need any paperwork. The airline will need your passport number when you book, so they can check the ESTA is valid. There should have been a long receipt number with numbers and letters when you applied, but you don't have to have it.
