  • Thank you Phoog. Very useful answer. Exceeding these 90 days would also be a very bad idea I assume. What are the repercussions? Commented Feb 15, 2017 at 11:54
  • @NatashaSprague if you overstay then you are ineligible to use the VWP in the future, so you'll need a visa for any future visits anyway. The visa costs $160, and for a British citizen is valid for ten years, so it isn't that expensive after all.

    @NatashaSprague another factor to consider: if the border officer notices that you're planning to stay for longer than 90 days with the VWP, then he or she is supposed to deny entry and send you back to London.
