Should they leave people stranded?
There is no backup if the passport link does not work, despite years of pressure we aren't getting a biometric card.

I'm not convinced a biometric card is the answer. In lots of parts of the world you have an official residence and have to register with the local town hall so there is actually a list of who lives in the country (independent of citizenship etc). We don't have anything like that in the UK, if we did it would be fairly easy to establish things like this.

My partner applied under the EUSS scheme, and received an email in October 2019 saying she had received Limited Leave in the UK for 5 years. The online evidence to prove her status states that 'in due course' the online checking service will be available to landlords.
The email also had a letter attached explaining the decision and so on, which says "If you do not currently hold a biometric residence permit, you should receive your biometric residence card 2ithin seven working days". She never received a card, and asked me about a card last week; to be honest, I had not noticed what the letter said about this. Are you saying that the government decided not to issue biometric cards?

I'm pleased you got in but why would immigration accept an email on your phone as evidence of anything? That could easily be forged or does it have some sort of signed qr code?
