Thanks everyone and for those still waiting, it will in end in praise

ggoldmine:


Alright. It's better that way. If you don't get a positive reply, summon courage and visit the Embassy. Who knows?…something might just happen. But I'm positive your passport should be at the VAC by Wednesday.

It will end in praise
After how many days waiting??

joyivro:

Thanks so much they have mailed me,going to collect tomorrow praying for the best.

I did that last Wednesday but they told me my passport wasn't ready
I'll wait till Wednesday again and if I don't get anything, I'll go again

ggoldmine:


If you live in the city where the VAC is located, I suggest you visit the VAC first.

09/09/19

beryour:
When was your biometrics done pls?

This was the reply from ukvi last Fri after I mailed them
I expected that my application would be transferred to VAC today but nothing yet!!!

Please kindly expantiate
Thank you

ggoldmine:


Hello. Any news yet? I read from an Immigration forum about visiting the British Embassy in the country since passports are dispatched to the VACs from there. In this case, the applicant visited the Embassy in Abuja because he applied there and the result was positive after two hours. You could give it a try.

I really don't get it.
U pay for a service and yet u don't enjoy the benefit
The delay is something else

Jamiel89:
It's crazy.

Tnx for the reply
The answer is comforting

chidarlus:

UKVI is currently prioritizing visas due to d large volume of visa applications. So if ur start date is closer the faster your visa comes out...
Besides I know u counted 9th of September(public holiday in UK l) in ur 10 working days. Priority usually take 10-12 working days now, so expect ur visa on Tuesday or Wednesday

Bro I sent u an e-message, pls respond. Tnx!!

chucksbadt:
Oh yeah
Finally!!

Called UKVI this morning
Those people expensive sha, N6k comot for my account for the 10 mins call i made. The 6k is separate from the regular call charges. Last last just hold your ATM for hand with enough money inside if you one call them.

They said a decesion was made since 27th August.
Immediately i dropped the call, i tracked my application and now noticed it was now 4/6. After like 3 hours, it was 6/6. My Passport is currently on the way via DHL.

In summary
Biometrics done 19th August (Standard service)
Decesion made 27 August
Passport will be received tomorrow 18th September

Have been trying to call ukvi, but after have been transferred, they always say my card transactions been declined
Have tried two different cards n both are activated for web transactions

So I don't know what the probs is!!

Its already 10 working days after biometrics and my application hasn't been transferred back to VAC.
Pls anyone who's called shld tell me exactly how u logged in ur card details. Tnx
P.S: I put in my application through the priority service
