Got a rather strange situation here - applying for GE renewal (expiring next year)
Paid GBP42 for the border force fee (email received confirming the fee was processed) - this was in early August
I have yet to see a code for me to proceed for renewal - any idea how to seek assistance? I understand even if the background check is rejected (which I doubt) I should've received a notification of some sort.
Thoughts and comments appreciated!

I was able to book a Zoom interview once I was conditionally approved. There were earlier dates but my interview was today. I was in London and the CBP officer was in Chicago. The interview started promptly, took around 5 minutes and my status updated to approved a couple of minutes later.
It was a very efficient process. UK access code to full approval in 25 days.

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere. Arriving in BOS and hoping to do EoA. Flight arrives at 19.30 and office appears to close at 20.00. Travelling in first so hope to be off the plane quickly. What are the chances of getting approved in time? If not can I do this landslide at BOS? Returning from YUL would this be a possibility? I can't find any details of times etc on the GE website for YUL. Thanks

Enrollment on Arrival is available only when going through passport controls when entering the US.For landside processing without having an appointment, please refer to the Global Entry Walk-In Interviews thread.

Quick question - I have submitted my application for GE and the website site says:
"Please remember to revisit our website for your application status updates. Notification of when you may schedule an interview appointment (if one is needed) will only be posted here."
Does that mean I have to keep checking the website to see when I have been conditionally approved or will they email me?
The website says application in progress - waiting for conditional approval. However I did not get any confirmation via email that I had submitted / completed my application.

I doubt it. Global Entry is linked to a passport. Do you have both passports listed in your Trusted Travel profile? It used to be required to scan a passport. It may work now with facial recognition; however, it will likely associate your photo with your UK issued passport.
